Flexible. I work with the student to meet expectations. As a 2009 graduate of the University of Texas at El Paso, holding a Bachelor of Arts, with a minor in English and American Literature, and with the teaching experience that I have gained in various fields since 2004, I feel that I am well-suited for this job. I have taught Reading ESL at the Transmountain EPCC Campus, as well as French at L’Alliance Francaise d’El Paso, and Spanish/ESL/French at La Paz Language Academy. I will also be teaching a Spanish beginners’ course at the History Museum of El Paso, giving evening classes to staff and community members, once a week, during the Fall semester of 2012. I have also tutored high school and college students in Ethics and in Literature courses, and still do so quite often. These positions enable me to provide these students with a “head start” in mastering basic skills. I am challeng

I am a sophomore mathematics major at the University of Texas at El Paso. I have taught a GED class for adults facilitated by the Housing Authority of the City of El Paso (HACEP) and the YWCA. I have 6 years of tutoring experience and other programs under which I tutored include the National Honor Society, Beta Club, and JROTC. My teaching style generally varies based on who I am tutoring/teaching. I generally treat my students as adults and under the assumption that they will go to college. I also tend to go a little beyond what is covered in the subject (especially in math) as a preparation for whatever course may come next (i.e. I would probably give a prealgebra student full fledged algebra work in order to prepare him/her for the next year).

I am firm but like to use students life experiences and hobbies to teach them subjects. Younger students I like to teach through play due to the fact that I am a firm believer that children learn through play. I have been studying education since my high school graduation in hopes of one day being the choir director at my high school.At the moment I am a student at UTEP studying bilingual elementary education and plan to receive a masters in music education after receiving my bachelors degree.

My experience working with a diverse student community has enabled me to experience multiple learning capacities along with the added privilege of experiencing different cultures. I graduated with a double major in political science and philosophy and later completed my masters degree in political science. I currently teach government courses at a local community college. Some of my proudest accomplishments have been away from teaching government such as teaching ESL, GED, and computer applications. Currently, I estimate I have graduated approximately 265 students in GED programs. In addition, I have contracted in public schools to tutor students in academic subjects such as reading, spelling, and grammar. Teaching on a one-to-one basis is the most personal and rewarding experience that a teacher may have. Part of the reason for this dynamic between the teacher and the student is b

I love sharing my knowledge to students. I know that accounting might be difficult for students and that each student might have different problems understanding it. I always try to find the problem first, then I know how to address a solution to the student. I believe that everyone can learn accounting if they are given the appropriate approaches and explanations. I also believe that students can take advantage of our current technology and use computer programs like Excel for better understanding. I have earned a Bachelor Degree in Accounting from the University of Texas at El Paso, which enable me to understand current issues about accepted accounting methods and principles for financial accounting. In Addition, I have extensive knowledge about managerial and cost accounting. Besides financial and managerial accounting, I have knowledge about "Taxes," I worked as a Tax Preparer for th

In the early sessions I ask my students a lot of questions to figure out their goals, problems, current knowledge and learning style. Based on what I find I build a teaching strategy. I then help them find appropriate materials if they don't already own some. I try a few methods to find the one that works best. If I'm teaching a language I like to combine grammar, vocabulary building exercises, as well as speaking and listening. I give them small quizzes to measure their progress. I help them find fun level-appropriate reading and listening materials. I give them sources online and information on what types of dictionaries are useful. I give them my email and tell them to contact me if they ever have any questions. As a graduate of a selective liberal arts college with a BA in East Asian Studies, Magna Cum Laude, I am driven to achieve excellence in my endeavors. I specialized in intern

Although I listed only 2 years of prior instruction, I have taught over 5 years of business/finance related material. On a school level basis, I personally have a child with ADHD that I tutor at home. I am especially proficient in English/Language Arts. My research and writing skills are exceptionally keen due to the number of research papers and job related inquiries I perform. My current job involves auditing of financial records, therefore I am exceptionally precise and would not object to tutoring in elementary math. I have tutored family members in English, science, mathematics, and history. My teaching style is very flexible. Because I have worked with children, teenagers, and adults, the ability to adapt to the learner's ability level is especially important. Not all people learn at the exact pact, therefore, flexibility is essential as well as non traditional teaching methods. So

I received a BA degree in Liberal Studies and a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential from California State Univ, Chico. My experiences have prepared me well to meet the tutoring needs of each individual student. I have tutored privately since 1999, working with students ages 6-15 in multiple subjects, homework help and study skills. I taught Math, Language Arts, Technology, Science and Social Studies in my own classroom for 5 years (grades 2, 4, 5 and 9). I also taught English as a Second Language in Korea. These experiences have introduced me to great methods to help each student achieve their potential, yet I am always learning and growing along with each student I tutor. I believe that teaching is about relationships. If I can cultivate a trust between myself and a student, it creates the right foundation for success. By being real and honest with students and encouraging them to be t

I ascribe to Gardner's 8 Stages of Intelligence theory, which purports the belief that every student is gifted, intelligent and capable of learning in a manner that conducive to their own unique style. As a teacher, I use myself as a tool to help facilitate the learning process. I have a social work background which, in my work has always been integrated with some component of teaching, both in and out of the classroom. I can teach most K-12 subjects, college prep courses and provide tutoring services including assessment and curriculum development. I tend to be rather versatile in my teaching methods as I adapt to the learning style of the student. It's what I have found most effective in improving the quality of their educational experience. I play tournament chess and enjoy coaching chess club as well.

I hold a degree in Organization & Corporate Communication with a minor in English, Rhetoric/Writing Studies and 14 years experience in public relations throughout my various jobs. Grammar, writing, composition writing, essays, grant writing, are all skills that I excel in. More importantly than any of that is that I enjoy writing and and enjoy reading books on grammar. I have tutored friend's children over the course of several years. I have taught religious studies for over 15 years to youth ages 14. I have worked extensively with children in my various lines of work in the mental health field and foster care. I love teaching and working with children and appreciate that no two children are the same nor do they learn the same way. I'm a strong believer that it's important to teach a child in a manner he/she is comfortable with, whether they pick up a concept quickly or need time.
