I took two years in high school and have taken 2+ years of college coursework. I have taught various people how to sign, from personal friends to the children of personal friend, as well as college students and other special circumstances.

From teaching preschoolers how to read to teaching high school students how to survive (and enjoy!) Algebra, I find it rewarding to discover how individual students learn and then help them to succeed in their efforts. I love kids and am able to relate to different age levels and needs. I understand that every child learns differently and has unique strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to be able to teach children fundamental concepts that translate into solving specific problems. For example, I teach phonics as a base for reading so that students are able to use the concepts they have learned to sound out new words. In math courses, I not only aid in completing particular equations, but I also make sure the student understands the principles and applies them in other situations. I desire to partner with parents in helping their child achieve academic excellence. Although I have a

I enjoy teaching a great deal and working with all ages of children. However my favored age group is adolescents. I try as much as possible to appeal to as many learning styles as I can in each situation. Not only does this increase the amount of understanding in the student, but it also increases the amount of retention. It has been my experience that if a visual learner gains understanding visually, that understanding is reinforced by other avenues, such as auditory, or kinesthetic. I always do my best to make sure that the student has learned the needed material and gained competency in whatever skill they are learning. When I graduated college I found myself wanting to help others. I began doing this by counseling youth who had substance abuse issues. For a time I also worked with the youth at a homeless shelter. Helping them with homework, ESL studies, and math skills. The

I am very passionate about education. I am a life-long student and my enthusiasm for learning is contagious. Each child has learning style and my priority is to discover that of your child's. My teaching approaches are quite varied and my flexibility allows adjustment, according to the needs of the student. I create a safe and fun environment for learning and endeavor to provide a good fit, so as to avail the most effective opportunity for your child's academic success. Emotional, mental, and physical well-being are aspects that I factor into my instruction, as well. As an honor roll student, I upheld the highest standards throughout my educational experience. I took advantage of workshops and conferences, which were availed through the college, as well as those through my employers. My emphasis was literacy and my grammatical skills are stellar. Several college professors have encourage

My level of academic excellence has led me to pursue a career in teaching. I have earned two degrees, AFA in Vocal Performance and BA in religion and philosophy which has demonstrated and expanded my experience, knowledge, and ability in the areas of fine and liberal arts. I have extensive understanding of grammatical skills due to my experience writing research and analytical essays and grading essays written by my students on a wide variety of topics. My time in college was spent tutoring students in history, math, science, English, psychology, French, Greek, and the arts. As a teacher I worked with students individually as well as in the classroom. In addition to academic training, I have instructed students in voice, guitar, acting, and piano both formally and informally over the last six years. I love to see a student light up when he realizes for the first time that he is capable o

In all my endeavors I strive for variety. My collegiate career at UC Berkeley involved strong academics, competitive athletics and International Study Abroad experiences. My degree in Natural Resources focused heavily on science, specifically ecology, and multiple-use resource management with strong math and social science components. I complimented my core studies with classes on environmental literature and art which helped develop critical reading and writing skills. I have previous tutoring experience with high school math as well as the continual phone-call tutoring sessions with my 17-year old sister, which include Chemistry, Math, History and English! My experience teaching American Sign Language at the university level and my TEFL certification have prepared me well for a tutoring position. I teach with passion and enjoyment, which has always proved conducive to the learning

My teaching style is based on my belief that students learn best when an assignment becomes more of a "hands on" activity. Experiential learning can help all students if tailored to meet their needs as a unique learner. I strive for all of my students to become lifelong learners so that they have a set of strategies with which to approach each new subject area or task. I have worked as a special education teacher, both in and outside of the general classroom setting. My experience has been with all age groups, especially birth through 5th grade, however I have recently begun working with at-risk high school students in an online curriculum. I have worked with children with all ranges of disabilities, from various types of learning challenges to physically challenged students and children diagnosed with behavioral differences. I enjoy adapting curriculum and academic tasks to meet in

Learning should be fun and engaging. My goal is to be patient and inviting, so the learner feels comfortable around me from the start. Positive feedback helps increase a student's self esteem. I understand that every child is an individual so there is not one universal teaching formula. However, we can all learn by example or something we can relate to. I try to make a connection for the student so that the topic of study is relevant, applicable, and interesting. I graduated from Tufts University where I earned a BA degree in both French and International Relations. I spent the four months immediately following my graduation working in Talloires, France, where I helped run an academic program for high school and college students from around the world. In addition to planning trips and programs, our institution offered an ESL program teaching English to French high school students. As

During the last three years of my undergraduate college career, I was a Mathematics tutor for student athletes. Although the courses covered while tutoring ranged from basic math to calculus, I am more comfotable tutoring algebra and geometry. I earned my BA with a double major in Mathematics and Russian in just four years. After college, I helped my sister and step-sister with their math and math-related physcis problems. During my three years of formal tutoring, I was able to change my tutoring styles to fit the needs of the student. Everyone learns differently and it is important to realize and adjust my tutoring accordingly.

My teaching style is very personal. I try to teach from experience. I relate to children and listen to their concerns while encouraging their individual growth. It is very important to listen and then make them aware of their choices and their responsibility for their choices. It is also important to set an example through my own actions. I enjoy learning and feel that my enthusiam can be contagious. I get along very well with children. I have a gentle yet focused approach to learning. During my academic years I excelled in learning. As an undergraduate I conducted a thesis with four undergraduate assistants. I graduated with honors earning my BA in Psychology. As a drug prevention counselor I had the opportunity to work with children of different ages. I feel I could be of benefit to any child in need of assistance. I am looking forward to establishing strong roots in this communit
