I live to create a love of English!

I have not tutored as an actual job ever, though I have done many other things that would be considered tutoring. I help my 12 year old nephew with his homework and have done so for about a year. I taught Sunday School at church for two years. My friends and other students have always come to me for help with essays and other English related assignments. Whether it be general proofreading, paragraph writing, paragraph flow, etc, that is the type of help I gave. I also have several Korean friends at college who are learning English as their second language, and one Finnish friend who learned English as her fifth language. I explain the basics to them, and help them learn English. I've learned that I do well in this field, and would like to continue with a paying job.

For the past four years I have been working at The Children's ARK-A residential treatment facility for at-risk youth. I was a teaching assistant my first year and I have been teaching for the last three years all content areas and subjects for grades 5-8. As for my educational background, I am currently on a TTE (Temporary Teaching license)and I will have my SPED generalist permanent license in May. Also, I will have an added endorsement and a Master's degree this summer 2010. I currently hold a B.A. in Psychology and that degree has proved to be very helpful with working with children with emotional issues.
I believe that it is the teacher's job to discover the true learning style of their students and when we do it is like unlocking a treasure chest of gold, so to speak. I enjoy teaching all the subjects in school and I enjoy the challenge of teaching children with learning disab ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator with a BA in English and an MA in Education, I have dedicated my life to teaching. I have a passion for all types of literature and writing. As a result, I have taught high school English for 12 years and expository writing at the University of New Mexico in the evening for nine years. During that time, I earned an administrative license qualifying me to be a principal. Instead of immediately becoming an administrator, I moved to Alaska with my husband for several years and explored the wild outdoors. I have moved back to the lower 48, and I have returned to education as a substitute teacher. My qualifications as an English instructor and tutor remain in tact.
I love to patiently impart my knowledge with curious students one-on-one or in a group. I encourage individuals to do their best and show each person how to take personal interest in his or her work, particul ... read more

I believe teaching should be flexible and innovative and the learning experience should be interesting and relevant to the student. The student should feel challenged and that she/he has a stake in the outcome. By offering personal choice projects to explore that supplement and compliment course material, the student learns through self discovery. It is my goal for students to realize not only academic success, but self success to prepare them for their future.
I was an adult when I discovered my true vocation in life was to teach. After the many journeys I traveled, I returned to school and obtained my BA and teaching license in Language Arts and continued my education with a MA in Cultural Anthropology. I have extensive experience and skills with language and writing having been associated with the educational field for eight years. My background in Anthropology enables me to rel ... read more

As a Special Education teacher, I am expert at creating lessons that will reach your student. I have worked specifically with elementary level reading and interventions, but also have worked with middle and high school students in literature, writing and grammar.
Children deserve the best education possible. I feel my teaching can contribute to their success in the classroom and enhance their learning experience. Teaching should be structured to ensure that student needs are met. Teaching should be creative so that students are involved in the process. Students should be provided a learning environment where they can grow to their full potential.

I have been teaching at a charter school for at-risk students for 10 years. I have taught both English and History, as well as administered all required state testing.

Also, I have a Master’s Degree in Curriculum & Instruction. I have worked with all levels of academic abilities as well as behavioral issues.
While teaching at a charter school for at-risk students, I have worked with all levels of academic abilities as well as behavioral issues. I believe in different learning styles and tailoring instruction to the student’s interest and abilities. Not everyone learns in the same way or at the same speed, but everyone can learn.

I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy. I have worked at a Montessori preschool and am comfortable using hands-on, creative methods for learning. Each student is different and learning approaches need to reflect that. I have worked with sensory-sensitive preschoolers, mentally challenged high school students, and ESL students ranging in age from 3 to 40. Whether they needed to learn how to tie their shoes, write an essay, the parts of an atom, how to use a conjunction, why the slope of a line is important, or how to write their name, I was there to help.

I love teaching and believe any child can learn with the right incentives. I have taught at-risk high schooler's and mentored and tutored them from freshman year to high school graduation.I tend to use the emotional intelligence model for teaching since everyone displays their strengths through various characteristics. I incorporate visuals, literature, and critical thinking skills to encourage students to believe they can learn and to draw their gifts and talents from within themselves.I encourage artistic creativity utilizing poetry, story telling, art and music to allow a student to find their own style of learning and to grow from using these methods.
I am currently a doctoral candidate for a PhD in professional counseling. I love to learn and currently teach adult learners at a local university in Colorado Springs. I am an avid reader and have taught Early college high school ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college graduate I believe strongly that the four years I spent perfecting, or at least expanding my literacy, comprehension, communication, and written skills, makes me a qualified canidate to tutor others, and help them improve on those same related skills. I have also had a lot of expereince with kids, working at daycares and afterschool programs where some teaching is required. With the level of education I have in the area of English, plus time spent in teaching environment, would also make me a strong canidate.
My teaching style is based on patience, creativity, and an understanding that everyone has different learning style. It is very important to me that I offer different approaches or different examples or ways to learn. Some kids learn visually, hands on, orally ext. And it is crucial that I as an educator would have different ways for them to learn. I am super pati ... read more
