I take the necessary time to learn the behavior and learning ability of the child in order to customize a teaching style that will be most beneficial. I believe that the most effective type of relationship between a teacher and a student is friendship to reduce any anxieties that may otherwise hinder the child’s progress. I am calm, well mannered, kind and devoted to the success of others. Teachers should be firm but not intimidating to the child. The learning environment should be safe, stress free and comfortable and above all positive. I have a strong belief that since children will be leading future generations then they need the proper skills to be able to solve tomorrow’s problems.
Throughout my high school career I have been devoted to academic success of my fellow classmates as well as my self. I continued this attitude in the accomplishment of achieving a BS degree in biol ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned my B.S. in Business Administration, studying many different courses. During my undergrad years, I was able to tutor graduate and undergraduate in their areas of weakness. These subjects included Financial Accounting, Micro and Macroeconomics, Literature, and many more. I have been able to teach them but also learn from them. Being a good tutor means being able to understand the ways the student learns. I am passionate about helping others and I will continue to be while pursuing my own dreams.
I enjoy helping others learn. It is a compliment when someone asks for your help. After tutoring and substitute teaching for about 2 years, I have learned that students comprehend material in many different ways. I am able to sit down with each student and ask them how THEY comprehend the material. I then make it to where they are the tutor and teaching me how to learn, however ... read more

I started my experience in teaching in High School through a Teacher Academy program. I have taught mentored and worked with a variety of students from K-12. Throughout college I studied and worked with diverse groups of students including students in Special Education and low income areas.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in allowing students the room to direct their own learning. Students who believe that they play an important role in their own education find a deeper level of satisfaction and pride both in their abilities and in their studies. Learning should be fun and exciting and offer students the ability to challenge themselves, explore their world, and see the value of knowledge and academics. Individual instruction is an ideal learning environment and offers the opportunity to tailor a student's program of study to their own unique learning style and interest.
I am currently a graduate student at Wright State University majoring in English Literature. I am also a Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) for the English Department and have developed a deep admiration for working closely with students.

My goal is to help any student not only come to the correct solution, but also understand how they came to that solution. I am patient, thorough, and willing to take the time to help a student understand what it is they are doing. Many times students are just happy to “get the answer.” I believe it is just as important to understand the process of coming to a solution as it is to get the correct solution. I believe all students can and want to learn, however they need an instructor who is motivated, competent, and eager to teach.
After my sophomore year at Wright State University, I decided to pursue a career in teaching and earned my BA in Secondary Education (Math) and my MA in General Classroom Teacher. I accepted a job to teach mathematics at the MVCTC in 2001 and have been there since teaching Basic Math, Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry. Additionally, I have tutored studen ... read more

Teaching has been my last career change. My prior experience has been in the field of manufacturing, maintenance engineering services and construction management. This diversified background was instrumental in equipping me to acquire a technology education certificate in three states (NY, OH, NJ) I am equipped to tutor elementary students in math, the physical sciences and language arts. I am also certified to teach students in technology and special education.
My teaching style is customized to each student's needs. Because all students have different learning styles my instructions are patterned to maximize that student's particular style. After evaluating each student with a baseline test, goals and objectives based on the state's/district's curriculum are determined. My style is setting high but realistic expectations with rigorous assignments. I also try to have an overdose o ... read more

I am an adaptable teacher. If I see that something is not getting through I will try a new angle to get the point across and am not afraid to try something to reach the students. No two people learn exactly the same way so one needs to adjust for the learner. Interactive learning is beneficial and usually helps keep students more focused and excited about the learning process. I like the challenge of helping others and enjoy seeing when they "get it" and are ready to move on.
I have a number of education courses completed from UD since I had started in the Elementary Education program there. As a Youth Minister I taught all age levels from sixth grade to seniors. I also taught training sessions for my adult volunteers. As a Sales Consultant part of my responsibilities was teaching program materials informational sessions to adults.

Throughout my entire life, regardless of the endeavor, I have been driven toward education--both of myself and my responsibility to teach others. I have tutored young children, children with attention disorders, high school and college students, and adults in subjects including math, science, language arts, grammar and computer skills. I was a corporate trainer for Darden Restaurants, teaching all aspects of that industry, and am currently the principal instructor for an equestrian program in Ohio. I have continued tutoring in math, science, and English since 1998, and plan to continue as such.
My teaching style revolves around a desire to make complicated subjects as simple and accessible as possible. In teaching so many different types of learners, my methodologies are as varied as my students. A teacher's primary responsibilities are to listen, adapt and teach to the needs ... read more
