More About This Tutor...

Teaching mainly K-8 on a consistent schedule, I have learned that some students need one-on-one teaching. Being the third teacher in Head Start, I had time to work with individual students. All children were very well prepared for kindergarten. The older children, including High School and Middle School, I would walk around the room and aide them when they were confused. I also had them read the text orally taking turns and we would do the work sheet to prepare for quiz, test or new chapter. I am very patient with those who are truly in need of assistance. I have tutored in the past in phonics for those having difficulty reading and pronouncing letters.
I recently have spent the last six months in the Head Start Program as a center teacher. We prepare them for kindergarten. I have taught all grade levels. I currently have a BA with a concentration in K-8 education. Due to onli ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an older recent graduate I have experienced how hard it can be to get a bachelor degree and raise a family at the same time. To be committed to both made me who I am today. I take great pride in the accomplishments I have succeeded in. I take just as much pride when tutoring children, their success is the most important accomplishment that can be achieved for all involved.
I currently am working as a teacher for summer school. I enjoy walking in the school everyday and working with the students, helping them find academic success while having fun at the same time. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the right learning experiences. I love working with children one on one or in a group. I have found most children learn by hands on. I love to do experiments with students or fun games to make their learning a little easier. I am patient, easy goi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Broadcasting and English. My educational and career background gave me confidence and experience in research, writing,and communicating with people. Also, I have over 8years teaching experience in the school and childcare setting for students ages 4-6. I have taught language arts, science, and math and tutored in reading.
I consider it an honor and a pleasure to teach children. I enjoy making learning fun, creative, and engaging for students. I think it is important to be flexible in individualizing lesson plans because all children learn differently. Promoting an atmosphere of children encouraging one another and building each other up in all areas of learning leads to social and academic success.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently a second grade teacher in the state of Florida. I have taught for 13 years and hold a valid teaching certification and an ESOL endorsement. Our family is moving to Wixom, Michigan where my husband is currently located for his business. I also homeschool my three children ages 13, 12 and 7. I am interested in part time tutoring.
I teach to the child's learning style. I do not believe in trying to make a child fit to a boxed curriculum but instead making the curriculum fit the child's needs and abilities. I teach using hands on learning experiences and real life application. My students are allowed to use our learning environment as they best see fit in order to provide the best learning for them.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe we should provide an enriching environment that respects, values, and celebrates diversity, and promotes individual growth and prepares a learner to be a well-rounded member of the larger community. But in order to accomplish this goal, teachers as well as parents and administrators have important responsibilities and play an effective role in this matter. Therefore, I have always done my best to prepare and present lessons that reflect accommodations for differences in students learning styles and consistently tailored teaching objectives to students' needs and demanded achievement. Because of that I have managed to keep students/parents satisfied and achieved high ratings from students continuously.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the style and approach of teaching varies with each individual student and that it is the tutor’s responsibility to recognize and find the appropriate methods to work with each student. The only teaching style that I believe should be the same across the board for all students is a positive learning environment. I am very patient, energetic, disciplined and compassionate. I believe that every child has the ability to do well and they just need the proper resources and support to get there. Beyond a positive support system, I will make every effort to work with each student on a case by case basis to help them achieve their academic goal.

A Little Bit About Me...

I thrive on humor. I believe students do too. If a student feels comfortable with the teacher he/she is learning from, he/she will be more open to what the teacher has to say. In addition, when the learning is fun, the student is more motivated to pay attention to and show interest in the material. I truly love teaching and when a student sees that I am passionate about the information and about his or her education, he or she will then in turn become more excited about a weaker area of study.
I graduated with an Elementary Teaching Degree from a small university in Michigan. Immediately, I went south to New Orleans to assist in the application of an after school program for inner city students. After this semester, I moved to Accra, Ghana in West Africa for three years. The first half-year, I was with a local school assisting in a classroom of 44 first graders. For the next two an ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am completing my degree in Elementary Education/Language Arts from Oakland University. I've spent countless hours in the classroom working with a variety of students. I have experience tutoring students in math and English. I have experience tutoring cognitively impaired students as well. I recently discovered alternate ways to teach math. I have learned the importance of using manipulatives to teach math concepts and believe that a hands-on approach to not only math, but every subject increases the students abilitiy to retain the information. I believe that everything needs to be couched in literature and have recently started my own library of books that explain different English and math concepts.
Teaching another individual and seeing that "light bulb" when they finally understand a concept they have been struggling with is a great joy to me! I believe strongly about incorpor ... read more
