Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Fairfield, MT

I believe that all children learn in different ways and my teaching style is designed to accommodate these differences. I design unique tutoring programs based on the child's strengths and learning style. I am a very patient and easy going person who believes in positive reinforcement. During my service as a Peace Corps volunteer in West Africa, I taught chemistry and tutored the students in all fields in my spare time. I have extensive grammatical skills and have written numerous papers.

My past experiences have taught me that I have an ability to motivate youth through rapport building and mutual respect. I know that touching one’s life is a huge reward to everyone involved. My goal is to help affect as many lives as I can by being the person I am with the compassion I have. When I was in college I always wanted to be involved helping shape the youth of our nation. It has been five years post-graduation and I still have the desire to continue my work with youth and adolescents. Why do I feel like that? The intention and the desire have always been inside of me: a craving to explore the cultural differences and environments in our society.

I am a big believer in teaching to an individual student's strengths, depending upon their skill sets and passions. That is how I approach teaching students to write, so as to lessen the intimidating aspects of writing. Every student has a different learning style, and that is how I approach teaching and tutoring. A graduate of the University of Montana School of Journalism, I earned a Double Degree in Journalism and English. I originally received my Montana Secondary Teaching Certificate through UM. I am extremely well-rounded. I've taught all levels of high school English, including American Studies Honors (team teaching with a history teacher), freshman Lit & Comp., Creative Writing, sophomore English, college-bound Senior English. I teach the Writing Process and am a 12-year professional Journalist/Reporter. My most recent teaching experience has been at the No. 1 public school in WA

All humans are basically learning "computers". We all have the ability to learn everyday. In order to teach someone, a teacher must understand the student as a person and learner. I love to figure out puzzles and to problem solve. Each new student I encounter is a puzzle that I get to figure out. Once I have the information I need to be "IN" with a student I am able to guide them in their investigation of what ever concept they want to learn. I enjoy seeing my students have the "light bulb" go off over their head. I enjoy teaching because I get to effect someone's future for the better. I am an educator that has been credentialed to teach Elementary Education. I have found over the last ten years that I am able to teach students the curriculum that they need as well as teaching the student how to learn. I have come to love math and science and am able to teach these subjects in th

I believe that teaching is all about creating and fostering positive relationships. Many students are not connecting with their classroom teachers and are therefore not motivated or engaged in the classroom. I am flexible and patient as a teacher and I strive to get to know my students, and through that process I learn what motivates them. I am able to present material to students in multiple ways that appeal to various learning styles such as auditory, visual, or kinesthetic. By building a caring relationship and learning how your child learns best, I can help your child succeed. While working on my bachelor's in psychology I taught for 3 years at an after school and summer science enrichment teacher and coordinator. I then decided to take my love of learning further and obtain a master's degree in teaching, therefore earning my elementary education teaching certificate. While working o
