Microsoft Office Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Glidden, TX

As a child, I struggled in school and found learning to be difficult and demoralizing. In middle school, I was fortunate enough to have a teacher who, through positive encouragement and persistence, helped me realize my true potential. As a tutor, I attempt to bring this attitude to all of my sessions. Instead of giving students answers, I feel it is my responsibility to not only teach them the content, but study skills that will help them be successful in all classes!

At LSU and throughout my years of teaching, I was provided with numerous opportunities to work with children in many different educational settings.  Not only have I been exposed to different grade levels but I have also taught gifted as well as special education students.  Working with these children allowed me to understand the whole child and taught me the importance of individual needs of each student in an educational setting, regardless of placement I believe that I can offer a motivational, technological, organized teacher with the goal of enriching young minds to be well educated and well rounded students. My focus will not only be on my students' educational needs but also on their self development fostering their individual growth. I am a firm believer that all children can learn when provided with the toolls necessary and an enriching environment. I pride myself in letting stu

I have an engineering degree and have worked in the Oil & Gas industry for over twenty years. My engineering degree gives me a background to tutor in areas of math and science. I’m also a lifelong learner which is important if you are going to teach others. I have been a team manager for Destination Imagination (creative problem solving) with teams from elementary to high school for the past eight years. I’ve enjoyed helping students to achieve results based on a set of requirements and their own creativity and hard work. My first objective is to achieve the results wanted by the students and their parents. In addition, I want to share my appreciation for the subject. It’s important to understand the students learning style and accommodate it as much as is practical. This way the student can take ownership of the learning and be successful as a self learner.

My teaching style is one in which I strive to engage students in the subject by both instructing and challenging them to think on their own. I also strive to accomplish this goal in such a manner that the student experiences the fun that is a part of learning, but one that also emphasizes the importance of the learning process as well. In all of my tutoring and teaching experiences, I communicate how critical good study habits are: self-discipline; finding a quiet place to study; punctuality; attention to detail; following the rules; etc. As a person who holds both a BA and MA in English, each with concentrations in writing (creative and technical, respectively), I am qualified to, and have for several years, tutored English language studies skills, including composition, grammar, punctuation, and reading comprehesion, to students from the third grade through college. I have also taught

I worked full time during the day as a Veterans' Employment Representative for Texas Workforce Commission. My teaching style depends on the student and subject I'm dealing with. For the non-reading adults I started by teaching them letter recognition and basic sounds; moved on
