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

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I approach teaching and tutoring as an exercise in problem solving. It requires assessment of the student's background, previously mastered skills, learning style, and engagement with the content. I believe that anyone can be taught anything; the key is developing an engaged, encouraged student with the fundamental knowledge to grasp the concepts at hand. Sometimes this requires remediation of specific skills. Other times, a student needs to understand the big picture so concepts can take root. Some students may require a visual demonstration while others master concepts best by diving head first into the content and asking questions when they arrive at a sticking point. I believe my flexibility and breadth of experiences and interests help me to connect to each student.
My background includes a Bachelor's degree in history and economics supplemented with minors in math, music, and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I’m a strong believer in the learner centered knowledge building. Not all learners are the same, and that means not all facilitation should be same. My goal is to establish a relationship with learner that enables me to transfer knowledge in a meaningful way to them. I like to meet the learner where they are, and allow for them to explore, and be challenged through the constructivist approach to learning. As part of the learning process, I am a big supporter of reflection and emotional engagement. These methods to a good and effective knowledge building process can be implemented in various environments and spaces.
Being raised in a home with educators greatly influenced who I am, and how I view the building of knowledge. While I earned my B.S in psychology and minored in business, I participated in after school tutoring programs for a local public school. My studies of c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style revolves around the idea of mastering important aspects of a subject area before moving to a more difficult subject area. In our current education system, students are allowed to move to more difficult courses without having the necessary building blocks. Through one-on-one tutoring, it is possible to take a couple steps back, assess a student's current capabilities and tailor lessons to the individual student (i.e. one student may need to back track and practice fractions before moving on to more difficult algebra). I also enjoy working with students are looking to excel beyond their grade level by challenging their problem-solving capabilities with new ideas and techniques in a variety of subject areas.

A Little Bit About Me...

In order to address the full spectrum of learning styles, I incorporate a variety of teaching methods, and I am confident that I will meet your child’s individual needs. While I make my students think hard, and present them with challenging scenarios, I am also very patient and sympathetic. I always reveal the tools needed for success, but only after the student has made an independent effort. While it goes without question that I want your child to master the targeted course material, it also my goal that he or she obtain a desire for additional learning both in future classes and outside of the classroom. I derive immense satisfaction in the knowledge that I am making an important contribution to my community as I help young people become lifelong learners and responsible citizens.
I hold a Ph.D. in Classics, a multidisciplinary field that focuses on all aspects of the ancien ... read more
