My strengths are with all children, they are my passion. I love inspiring and motivating students to learn. I try to actively engage students in learning by using a variety of activities, projects, and manipulatives. In addition I have been able to use reading strategies to help students achieve a successful year of learning. I am an open and friendly teacher, with a bit of a funny bone at times. I live by a Dr. Suess quote “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” I will be a graduate of Northeastern State University as of May 17th, 2010 holding a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education.

What makes me a great teacher is that I have patience and the understanding to work with anyone. I explain things in a way that whomever I am tutoring can relate to and benefit from the most. I am very social and outgoing which I think is important in helping identifying a student's specific learning needs. I enjoy helping others and want to use my abilities in a positive way. I recently graduated from NSU with a BS in Chemistry as well as minors in Biology and Math. I have very good writing skills not only because of writing lab reports but I worked for the university in the community relations office. I helped write many letters and plans detailing events we had. I have tutored fellow college students in math and science for the past 4 years.

An instructor, one must create a safe environment that is interactive and collaborative and that promotes problem-solving and critical thinking skills. By giving students a voice in class, not only do the students benefit from peer-peer learning by enriching the course material with personal experiences and knowledge, but they also take responsibility for their own learning and, therefore, enhance the integration of their new knowledge into practice. To create a safe learning environment, I encourage students to ask questions and give their views on the material we are covering. I create assignments that improve students’ problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

I feel that we all have the aptitude to learn, yet each individual discovers that aptitude in a different manner. My first and most important goal is always to convey this to the student in an effort to let them know I believe in their abilities. The thing that allows a student to most effectively reach his or her possibilities is confidence. The future of any nation lies with the quality of the education received by its students, and this education is only as useful as the extent to which its possessors can communicate. That is what makes composition and English comprehension so vital. The brightest mind can be a prison of knowledge without the proper skills of communication. While in high school, I discovered my love for math and began tutoring classmates in that area. My interest in writing developed during my educational career at The University of Tulsa, where I had courses in advan

My teaching style is patient and creative. I seem to find unique ways and examples that the learner can understand to help describe how to solve problems. I’m not afraid to admit if I’m not confident of an answer to a question and will do all I can to figure out the solution that makes the best sense to the student. I’m flexible with regards to teaching for different learning styles because not everyone learns the same way. My tutoring can extend from grade school kids to college students. I know the value of a tutor in a young person’s life. As a child I struggled in math, but working with a tutor I overcame my difficulties in this area and eventually went on to complete calculus level two and even become the math club president in high school. I have earned two degrees, a Masters in Business and a BS in Finance which have allowed me to gain extensive skills in math, statistical analys

Through my volunteer work with church organizations I have over five years of experience mentoring others, which has given me an excellent understanding of the need for quality educators. I worked as a teacher in Kansas before moving to Oklahoma, where I currently work at a local Boys and Girls Club. There tutoring is a part of the daily activities and youth in various grade levels ask for help with numerous subject matter. Additionally, my educational experience as an English/Education major has given me a good foundation of writing and critical thinking skills that translate as an ability to teach a variety of subjects. I believe in creating students who have learned how to learn. I understand that I am only a temporary fixture in the lives of most students. Consequently, I strive to help them understand how to acquire information and ask the right questions so that they can succeed l

My passion is working with children of all ages. I believe all children can learn and it depends on how you approach their learning. If a child is not learning, I need to re-evaluate how I go about teaching. I am very patient and have an outgoing personality. I believe that you must teach to the whole child before true learning can happen. I have been a classroom teacher for 9 years. All 10 of my years out of school have been in the education field. My first year out of college I taught at an unaccredited private school, and then at an accredited day care center. The next 7 years were at a public school. One year I was recruiting for scholarships at the college level. I have always opened my door to students without expectations of payment for several years. I feel that it is my duty to make sure they understand their assignments.

I believe the best way to help a child learn is to, "follow the child". I try to let the child find his own answers and simply be a cataylst between the materials and the child. It is in this way the child gains confidence and independence through the learning process. I am patient, laid back, and passionate about education. I find great joy in seeing my students become excited about their studies. I like to help my students think outside the box and be creative with their ideas. I am a graduate of a private small private college with a high standard of academic excellence. I balanced my school work with playing college volleyball, therefore I know what it takes to be dedicated and work hard. I hold a bachelor's degree in History as well as teaching certification in the Montessori Method for ages 3-6 yrs. I have certification in Southern Appalachian Ecology earned from the Tremont

I have discovered that the gift of teaching is valuable in almost any career one chooses. I have found myself drawn to the role of manager, teacher, leader, trainer and facilitator in spite of the variety of jobs I have had over the last couple of years. My formal training has been in the English as a Second Language (ESL) arena with most of my actual teaching experience being with adult or college-aged, non-English-speaking individuals. I thoroughly enjoy teaching those students trying to improve their written and oral communication skills enough to be accepted into a university. I also have a great admiration for those students I teach at the community level. These are students that are not going to school because someone is telling them to or even because they are going to gain anything other than knowledge. These adults have a desire to better themselves and their quality of life, an

I am a graduate from Pittsburg State University with a Bachelor Degree in Psychology and about to graduate in May 2011 with another Bachelor degree in Recreational Therapy. I was valedictorian in my high school and graduated in the top 10% of my class in college. In addition to that I have 5 years of Spanish I have taken in high school and college and recently went to Oaxaca, Mexico on a study abroad trip for 3 weeks. I have three years of experience working with children and teaching them social skills, daily living skills, helping them with their homework whenever they need it, and I love to learn. I like to work with children of all types. I think that anybody has the capability to learn if they really want to. Everybody learns in a different way and I am willing to work with them any way I can. I am very patient, laid back, and willing to try new ways to help children accomplis
