I enjoy being in a position to lead children and/or adults toward academic success according to their goals. Throughout my employment, I was fortunate to enhance upon a variety of personality traits which I believe would make me an excellent tutor. The key traits I possess are the ability to motivate, to encourage, to guide, to negotiate, and to pursuade individuals. I believe children, and sometimes, adults, need considerate direction and knowledge to put them on the path toward their success. As a graduate student, I was fortunate to teach "Government & Politics 101" to 20-30 undergraduate students. I was responsible for course instruction, assigning and grading classwork and research papers, and coordinated and graded exams.

My teaching style assesses in the student's learning ability to set the pace. Before beginning the next a review of the previous lesson is in order to be sure the prior lesson has been grasped. Each encounter with the students is an assessment for me as well as for the student of me. Positive reinforcement is a good way to keep students on point. It is not a good idea to become "chummy" with your stucents (familiarity breeds contempt). Gain your student's respect and respect your student in return but, you must take charge. As a beginning substitute teaching day-to-day I encountered a diverse cross section of students. I taught from special education to advanced students. The encounters went from cultural, age, to behavioral. the subject matter went from home economics, art, math, english, history, to science. Most students lack structure and focus, therefore, knowledge and a lesson plan

My teaching philosophy is that all students can learn, as long as they are motivated to learn, the educator is motivated to teach, and the academic instruction is modified and molded to the learning style(s) of the individual students. Naturally, all students learn material differently, so a variety of instructional strategies need to be involved in the learning process. I care about each of my students, and I strive to motivate them to succeed. I am currently a private tutor for middle school and high school students that need educational assistance in biology, algebra, and chemistry. Since each student has different needs, I assess the obstacles to academic success during my first meeting with him/her, and structure our future sessions accordingly. I did my student teaching at St. Helen's School in Newbury, Ohio. My teaching here has given me valuable experience with classroom man

My teaching philosophy revolves around individual student needs. I understand that all students learn differently and sometimes teaching to "the middle" that is common in many educational system is just not effective for every student. I spend a lot of time talking to the student and observing them to figure out how best to help them. In this way, I am able to provide the best educational experience possible for every student. I began tutoring as a high school student for the Wayne State University Math Corps. I tutored students entering the 7th and 8th grade in math topics ranging from basic math to calculus. I continued tutoring at the University of Michigan in the Sweetland Writing Center, helping college students draft and revise essays for a variety of subjects. I also spent a summer in Honduras teaching English to elementary students ranging from grade K-5. In this setting I was in

My teaching style is extremely hands-on. I have found through my coaching and swim lesson experience that I relate well to kids and by approaching the situation in a fun and friendly way I believe I reach the children more effectively. I have been extremely successful in teaching swim lessons and have helped beginners to reach elite athlete status. I employ the same tactics in the classroom and was a very successful mentor to troubled kids through the Be a T.I.G.E.R! program at Clemson University. My enthusiasm and creativity in teaching tactics help me to make the children understand the subject. I obtained my BS in Business Management from Clemson University in August of 2009. During my time there I was a member of the Varsity Swimming team where I competed against world class athletes within the Atlantic Coast Conference. Balancing life as a student-athlete created a unique and challe

At the outset of tutoring I do an assessment of where students are currently achieving in a specific subject

I have spent the past 4 years of college working with students of all ages and levels; including special needs students, middle childhood students and high school students. When I came to college I knew I wanted to teach and I knew I wanted to teach older students of the middle school, high school level. I began on the Adolescent, Young Adult Education track and never steered away from it. I have been granted many experiences in a classroom before I graduate and I have come to realize that every student needs individual attention and it has been my goal to give each child the opportuni
