“I am not a teacher, but an awakener.” Robert Frost

I am an educator with 27 years of experience. I have both taught and tutored grades K-12. I have a special needs, vocational, and assessment background. I love teaching and working with students. I am very patient, easy-going, and encouraging. My teaching approach is creative and imaginative. I use methods to make lessons fun and enjoyable. I believe in using "the whole language approach," which helps to reinforce several skills at the same time. I am able to communicate my thoughts and ideas very clearly. My philosophy is that any subject can be learned, if it's presented in the correct way.
I use a creative, hands-on teaching style. I break things down and present them in simple sequence, so students don't become overwhelmed. I am very patient. I try to incorporate fun, imagination, and creativity into learning activities.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to speak, slowly and thoroughly, in the language I'm tutoring in. For example, I would conduct most lessons in German, but at a slow and comprehensive pace, so that students are able to "pick up" on the German language as if it were second nature. If there is an issue with miscommunication, I switch to English, and explain the concept again in German.
I am currently working on my Masters in German Studies, as well as getting my teaching license. I have plans to go through the TEFL program to earn certification in teaching English as a Foreign language. I have been studying and teaching German/ESL since high school. I also lived abroad in Russia for sometime, and am continuing to learn Russian on my own. I can also teach the basics of the Russian language.

I like to teach using a hands-on approach. I believe the best way to learn is to do or at least attempt to do. I really find satisfaction when I see the “light bulb” go off and there is a glimmer if understanding in the eyes of my pupil.
For the past 10 years I have been teaching a wide variety of students ranging in age from their 80’s to 8. I obtained my BS in Information Technology which gives me a vast knowledge of computer applications, networking, and technical communications. I have also worked in a higher academic institution and have extensive knowledge of grammatical skills as well as different formats for composing research papers. I also possess a high level of patience and enthusiasm which I feels helps with the education process.

A Little Bit About Me...

The extent of my teaching experience was in rural Kentucky where I functioned as a substitute teacher for Beaver Dam, Kentucky schools, both for the elementary and high schools. I have a great desire to work one on one with children again in order to help them with their learning skills, social skills and self-esteem building, all of which are related to being on equal ground with their peers in school. Life has only now allowed me the opportunity to seek such avenues. I would be very interested in continuing my own education to better my qualifications, and am very open to counsel.
I am a firm believer that everyone learns in a different way, given different brain functioning, personality etc. Each child has different levels of attention, and differing strengths and weaknesses, which need to be pinpointed. My approach is very loving and casual, and I always can find a wa ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and working with learners of all ages. I believe everyone learns at their own speed and that learners should be empowered to ask the questions they want answered. By doing so, they help set the agenda and pace of their learning, which ensures their motivation and full engagement in their educational process. My learner-centered approach has been developed during 20 plus years as an English professor and fifteen years as a father. My style incorporates the Socratic dialogue method to engage your student in dialogue that accepts and validates their questions and concerns. I have been told that my teaching style is inclusive, not overbearing, patient, and low-key. My students gain self-confidence in their new skills and abilities and have gone on to become lawyers, doctors, writers, editors, and teachers of English. I have helped thousands of learners advance in their studi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently teaching first-year composition as a graduate student at the University of Cincinnati. I have been teaching at UC for two academic years and will graduate with my MA degree in June 2010. I teach and design freshman and sophomore level writing courses independently as a graduate teacher. I have taken the Praxxis English exam and can provide test scores upon request. As an undergraduate, I completed two years of elementary education coursework, including educational psychology and educational technology. During my undergraduate degree, I worked in the college writing center as well as volunteered as a teachers’ aid at local elementary schools.
My approach to composition is simple; think, write, repeat. This means that I use a process-oriented method as students draft and re-draft based upon the new ideas and insights which are gained through the practice of writi ... read more

I have always loved teaching because I feel that I can make a positive impact on my student's lives. I enjoy teaching because it fulfills me and gives me the opportunity to continue learning along with my students. I teach to the many different learning styles of my students. I am a strong believer in educational psychology and differentiating instruction based on the unique needs of each student. I also believe that assessment drives instruction. It is first important to determine the needs of the child through either informal or formal assessment techniques and by getting to know the student as well. As a teacher, I try to enter each educational environment with an open mind and an open heart. I know we each come in with our own perspectives, but my ultimate goal is to help my students learn, in whatever way is best for them.
I come from a family of teachers and now I to ... read more
