I have an unparalleled amount of patience.

My first teaching experience was in high school teaching at after school programs about basic economic principles that may apply to kids. That was my first time understanding that I have potential to assist others in grasping topics. In my college career, I found myself teaching people everything from music to proper uses of tense/grammar. It was there that i learned that you really only learn a small fraction of what you need to help you in life in the classroom. The rest must be learned on your own or with some one-on-one counseling. I know that any information can possibly be simplified and made clearer with a little time and attention to towards looking at the bigger picture or basic concept.
The roles of the teacher and student are one in the same. I go into teaching knowing that I am not the end all shepherd of information but I am going to give all I can at being as clear, c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored others ever since I can remember helping out my peers. Teachers believed that I had an ability of not just understanding the information/assignments, but to get the everyday student to be able to understand it as well. My bachelors degree in Psychology is reflective of wanting to know the best way to interact with people and help them achieve their desired result(s). I am currently finishing my Master's Thesis at Eastern Washington University and hold a credential as a registered counselor from the State of Washington. In California, I have taught classes at the Jose Valdez Math Institute which is one of the most highly decorated math programs for junior/senior high school students in the west coast. Additionally, I have worked in Spokane School District 81 as a Youth and Community Specialist that catered toward bringing in non-traditional curriculum at the middle scho ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a junior and senior finance major, I routinely tutored fellow classmates in several finance and business courses. As a junior I showed many of my classmates how to excel in several areas of business, such as, finance, accounting, human resources, and management. As a senior I tutored many of my friends and colleagues in many finance courses, such as, portfolio management, financial engineering, and personal finance. I've never tutored for pay, which shows how dedicated I am to helping people achieve their academic goals.
My teaching style is very simple, it's teaching people the concepts at hand in a manner they can understand, because some texts and instructions can be very confusing and over explained. I enjoy making complex concepts seem easy to my students and love to watch them apply them to any problem. Once, I get my students thinking in the right manner they can solv ... read more

My last class was a self-contained 6th grade, with a 34% ELL and 14% special education population. My class average reading level rose from 4.6 to 7.1. Of all the students in the school who surpassed the required State testing and higher District goals in both reading and math, 75% came from my class, as did the winners of the school's essay contest, spelling bee and geography competition. My first career was in medicine where I gave direct care, taught military/civilian classes and participated extensively in research, gaining a deep understanding of science biology and chemistry and human A&P.
I integrate as many subjects as possible and seek to provide the missing schema, background experience and knowledge, that is critical to learning to a true state of understanding and mastery. Every subject is interesting to a child who can understand it and apply it. Through a ... read more

To listen is to learn; this goes hand-in-hand with asking questions. In order to learn, one has to process information at his own pace. Questions are sometimes more important than answers. I also believe a seed can be planted along the way. In other words, as one proceeds learning, a new concept can be introduced that might not make sense at the time, but will spark recognition later. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. I love to inspire others, and I strive to make a difference in lives.
I completed my Bachelor of Science degree in Education with a mathematics major from Northern State University at Aberdeen, South Dakota. Being a continual learner, I also completed a broadfield science endorsement in Montana. Twelve years teaching experience has given me extensive opportunities teaching secondary mathematics and science to various cultures in Alaska, Montana, and S ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love to experience the thrill of success as a child begins to understand. I enjoy seeing their confusion transform into understanding. I believe children have brilliant minds that just need to be directed or focused in a way that incorporates their frame of reference. I have seen how children become excited with learning as they understand concepts and begin to apply them to practical situations. I believe children love to learn! Sometimes they just need to have some direction along the way. I find great satisfaction in helping a child build confidence with learning.
As "stay at home" mom of 6, I have used my two Bachelors' degrees for the education of my own children. I've taught them essential reading and writing skills, study habits, organization skills, science projects, practical application of principles, and a love of learning. I have also home schooled my children ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I try to match my teaching style and content to the interests and learning style of the individual. My varied background allows me to integrate subjects and give examples of applications, which makes topics more relevant to the student. I believe that respect, patience, and humor go along ways to making a learning experience positive.
Since graduating from college with BS degrees in physical science, chemistry, and environmental education, I have taught math (basic through pre-calculus) and science (biology, chemistry, physics, life science, physical science) 5th through 12th grade in both private and public schools. I worked two years at a Sylvan Learning Center as a Lead Teacher (and Director of Education) in almost all of their programs (Writing, Academic Reading, General Math, Algebra, Geometry, and SAT prep). In the last seven years, I have had my own part-time business ... read more
