Tutor Certification. Writer, Columnist. Award winning tutor. My style is age-appropriate: I modify my approach to accommodate age, learning level, personality and a combination of abilities and interests.

Any good teacher can accommodate any student with the ability to understand people. Experience includes teaching in public and private schools prior to and following tutor certification. Research for Tutor Certification focused on the study and analysis of adult learning problems stemming from poor learning and education experienced of youth.

I began tutoring people when I was in the eigth grade. I decided I wanted to help out at the school across the street from my middle school in Colorado. I enrolled in a class that allowed us to go and assist the teachers and help the students. I fell in love with kids then for sure. I already knew I liked them because I started babysitting when I was 11 and couldn't stop! Then in ninth grade, a neighbor failed kindergarten and asked if I would starting coming over several days a week to help him understand what was being taught. Needless to say, he made it to the first grade! I now have a 17 year old sister who is constantly asking for my assistance in her homework and it is with great pleasure that I assist her. I have a background in Psychology, so I am extremely intuitive with what a person needs regarding their learning style. I am able to adapt my teaching style to their needs. Pati

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling. I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal oppor

Teaching is all about- 1) imparting the right knowledge set 2) making sure that the student has understood the dynamics of a subject and remembers it all ! I believe that patience is a great attribute while teaching. Along with patience, I believe I can communicate to the level of the student I am teaching, thus making sure that all concepts are well understood at the level of each student. I wish to make a difference in the lives of each student and to create a liking for the subjects I teach in my students. By making a teaching session interesting, I believe that I foster better memory in the subjects involved and make life easier for my students. Teaching is all about making sure that one imparts the correct piece of information and knowledge in a way as to indoctrinate it into the minds of students, so that they enjoy what they learn and consequently remember all that t

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of one of the best Universities in Africa (Unilorin,Nigeria), I was much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two master degrees, M.Sc in Physics and MBA (Marketing Management), which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of Mathematics, Science and Management.

I currently work as a professional science/health writer, and I have a keen grasp of literature comprehension, grammar, and composition. I have tutored students in English, math, and science. Additionally, I have volunteered as a soccer coach, Sunday school teacher, and "Hands-On Science" instructor in the classroom. I previously taught private swimming lessons and piano lessons for children. I believe the key to academic success is ensuring the student feels a sense of accomplishment and pride in self. My method of teaching focuses on determining the best learning style and beginning with lessons that will bring about success, and then challenging the student gradually. I try to make learning fun, while encouraging questions and an "out-of-the-box" approach to problem solving. The ultimate goal is to develop an independent and motivated learner.

One of the most important parts of my teaching philosophy in tutoring is to adapt to each student’s learning style. While teaching Elementary Composition, I used technology in the classroom in order to make the required subject matter more appealing to my computer-generation students, by giving PowerPoint presentations and showing you-tube video clips as a means to practice analytical skills on popular culture. I also learned ways to appeal to visual learners, auditory learners, and hands-on learners. As a college level Associate Instructor of both Introduction to Creative Writing and Elementary Composition, I have taught students the fundamentals of analytical reading, writing, and research skills in creative and academic arenas. In addition to my background in teaching, I also tutored in Loyola University Maryland’s Writing Center during my senior year of undergraduate studies. As a tu

After finishing my undergraduate work, I served in the Peace Corps for over two years. During this time I worked with various groups in the areas of elementary education tutoring, ESL for children and adults, and small-business training. When I finished the Peace Corps I was awarded a scholarship/fellowship to Duquesne University, where I completed my Master's degree. During this time I worked half-time with a nonprofit. At the end of my fellowship this nonprofit offered me a teaching job in conjunction with West Virginia University. I recently returned from a service-learning (study abroad) trip that I led in Mexico. I have tutored children, and taught university students and adults for over 3 years. I love teaching in a one-on-one environment. I think that this environment makes it easier for teachers to be empathetic towards learning blockades. Last year I trained at a writing center
