“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.

More About This Tutor...

I like to teach using different strategies and methods, because I know all the students in the classroom are not going to learn the same way. I feel it is best to fully understand my content and standards. Then create lessons to teach the students in a way they will learn the material best for them. I teach using various methods: hands-on, kinesthetic, real life learning, music, incorporating other contents and likes, while still creating a routine for structure. My style changes based on my students needs.
I have completed a MAST (Mathematics as Strategic Teaching) Seminar. I have completed training over engaging difficult students and I have also learned more innovative techniques in which to use when engaging students who are trying to achieve more challenging skills. I designed a program called Math Mates, which was an after school intervention program for students who needed m ... read more

As a student in a four year college, I have applied myself to every singe subject that there was to conquer. In some areas I shined, but it some areas I had difficulties. But at the end of the day I was learning from the best and took in all that I could, in order to continue my education, pass on the knowledge to my future children, and finally use education as a source to progress in our civilization. During my college years I was able to participate in study groups and help out fellow students in some subjects, (if they had difficulties understanding). College courses such as Writing, Reading, Art, Music, Business, Science, and Math gave me a well rounded educational experience and development as a student.
I am firm believer in dynamic education, where each student is considered individually from every single point of stand. Each child/student is unique, and because of that h ... 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

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

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
In between obtaining my BA in political science and English from the University of Mississippi in 2009 and returning to school for chemical engineering I spent a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a Ph.D. in Classics, a multidisciplinary field that focuses on all aspects of the ancient Greek and Roman world. I have mastered Latin and Ancient Greek, and can read Spanish, German, French, and Italian. During my five years working full-time at various universities, I taught literature, history, mythology, archeology, and all levels of Greek and Latin. My expertise in English grammar, and in reading, writing, and organizational skills, is evident in the book and article that I have published. Math, moreover, was always a strong point for me, and I am very good at helping elementary school students in that area. My competence in such a wide range of subjects makes me an excellent candidate for many tutoring assignments. Recently, I tutored a 2nd grader in Reading and Math, an 8th grader in English, Latin, and Study Skills, and a 10th grader in Latin. I am presently assisti ... read more
