I am a Music Education Major at Towson University.

I have played Trumpet for 9 years, Clarinet for 3, and have taken numerous college methods courses that teach me how to play and teach many other instruments. I am a music education major at Towson University, but I live near Salisbury, MD, and love to help and tutor children in this field during the summer. I do not yet have a degree, but am looking for paid teaching experience to put on my resume.

You're gonna learn today!

I teach by using examples!
I have been studying algebra every since the age of 6. While doing community service for the boys and girls club, I learned that I'm great with teaching, mentoring, and communicating with kids! After two months attending Wilmington Job Corps I tutored kids for GED, High School Diploma, and some placement test needed for the program.

My comments on tutoring Algebra : Taken it twice passed both classes with high A.

I am hands on and like to have an example ready if needed.
I tutor my mom with college math when I was in middle school. I also helped my cousin when I was in middle school with all her subjects in high school. Now I am helping my sister with her elementary classes. I am more invovled with math since I did welding as a technical degree. I also did we'll in science and social studies because my welding teach was an ex- marine and ex- science teacher.

More About This Tutor...

Over the course of my career, I have taught a wide variety of courses: principles of my field (Earth, Life, and Microbiology science), and laboratory analysis. I have earned a BS in Biology/Microbiology and a certificate in Industrial Biotechnology I am quite comfortable with classes of different sizes, at different levels, and with various teaching styles. Early in my career, I received a position as a professor in microbiology, data-based approach to teaching introductory courses to students.
I like teaching and working with middle, high, and college students. Find different easy ways, to help students understand the hard subjects so they can acquire the knowledge needed to pass a class. Have the ability to see in each student their frustration on a subject and changed it into a success!

I believe that all students want to learn and feel successful. I also believe that all students can learn so long as the materials are available to them in a form that is most compatible with their individual learning styles. My most important charge, along with helping those I tutor to "get" the materials, is to help them analyze their own styles of learning, identify what is successful for them and what is not, and help them create new strategies which might meet with more consistent success, both short and long term. For students who have not learned their own best ways to learn, this step is a crucial foundation for all future academic successes.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked in a wide range of business and educational settings and have worked with students from grade school to adult. When I earned my BS in English, with a thirty credit business minor, I already had fifteen years experience working in a family run retail store. I have since worked a range of jobs including teaching business, computer and English classes. I also worked as a computer systems installer, service manager and office manager. I bring to my teaching a wide range of experience combined with a strong understanding of my subject areas.
As a teacher I believe that students learn best by doing, so I plan my lessons to engage students with meaningful activities that are mastered with hands on activity rather than teacher lead discussion.

I believe each child has their own learning style. Through a variety of approaches and materials each child can find success in reading and math in their elementary school years. I enjoy finding each child's path to success.
I have taught Special Education for 26 years and third grade for 6. I have tutored using the Reading Assist program and various other methods for reading. I also have many techniques for teaching math to young learners. I enjoy working with children one on one or in small groups. I have retired from teaching but would like to continue working with children part-time. I have been substituting the past couple of years since retiring.

I have been a paraprofessional with the Woodbridge School District for the last 10 years. In my years with the district I have completed numerous trainings in several reading programs, Readind Assist, Wilson, and Soar to Success are a few. I have worked with regular ed and special ed children in grades from 2 thru 8. I am currently working in a self-contained special ed classroom grades 5-8. I work with the students using text to talk books and readers theater.
I am patient but firm with students.I believe when given an appropriate environment and encouragement they all have the potential to learn. Using humor and making personal connections with students helps them feel comfortable, and in doing so, creates an agreeable learning environment.

More About This Tutor...

I have three years of experience teaching at the high school level, including chemistry, physics, and physical science. I have also worked in the pharmaceuticals industry, where I learned much about the practical use of chemistry.
My teaching style is constructivist, meaning it all depends on the learner. Every learner has a different style, and I try to match that style. The important thing to me is that at the end of the day, the learner has truly learned and understands the concepts at hand.

As an engineer-turned-applied statistician, I’m driven by a relentless pursuit of simplicity, in a field that often seems difficult and hard to understand to many. Having decades of experience in all aspects of applied statistics allows me to use real-world examples to help explain statistical methods and procedures. My goal is to make the complex simple, and enable the student to use data and statistics to answer questions rather than just solving homework problems. Learning a problem solving process rather than just learning a method will not only make more sense to the student, but will remain with them long after the course is over.
I hold a BS in Electrical Engineering and MS degrees in Biological Sciences and Math & Applied Statistics, and I have 20+ years experience in using applied statistics in a manufacturing environment for a Fortune 500 company. I’ve taught quality ... read more

Since acheiving my first accounting designation from the UK in 1991 I have taught accounting and Business Law to adults until 1998 when I migrated to the US. While here I was succesful in passing my CPA exams and I am now a member in good stabding with AICPA and Delaware Society of CPAs. I have been tutoring my relatives kids in math and science for over 4 years. One child is now in High School while 2 are in Middle School. Under my tutelage, the middle schoool kids have been able to make the honor roll whenever they put in practice what is taught. The usual success rate in making the honor roll is 70%.
My tutoring style depends on whether the child learns better with visual aids or by other means. I also assess their weaknesses and determine if it is caused by lack of comprehension,fear of the subject matter or a lack of preparation.

During my undergraduate career, I student taught ninth grade English at Glasgow High School. I taught five 9CP courses and 1 SAT Prep course. So I have experience working with students and I am very skilled in teaching English Language Arts concepts.
I believe that each student brings something different to the classroom. In my classroom, I want to foster the students' ideas and thoughts. I want the students to have a sense of pride in their thoughts. I am aware that students have different learning styles, so I am capable of altering my own style to make sure each student grasps the concepts that I want them to learn.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to work with children, helping them learn subjects in a different way to gain a better understanding of the subject. I am available to help your child achieve academic success and reach their full potential. Being a mother of 3 children, it is important to me to not only see my children succeed in areas they are having trouble with, but to succeed in all areas of their lives. I believe all children can meet their academic goals and be successful if they are surrounded by the right people and right learning techniques. I am very patient, as well as polite and considerate. I always strive to make a difference and do the best job I can in every area of my life. And, I will do the same for the students I help succeed.
Having a great thirst for knowledge, I was torn between Accounting or Engineering to major in, in college. Having a passion for numbers and electrical desig ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a currently a working civil engineer specializing in bridge design (steel and concrete structures). I received scores of 760 in Math on both the SAT I and II, and a score of 800 in Math on the GRE's. I have taken several high level calculus, engineering mathematics, and statistics classes at the University of Delaware, aside from receiving a 5 on both the Calculus and the Statistics AP Exams. I have tutored elementary students in the past, and was part of a 'teaching scientists' after school company briefly in college.
I believe in talking through problems using visual ideas and simplified concepts. I prefer teaching with graphics and concepts, and then relating them to formulas and equations. While I expect hard work from my students, I also have the patience to help them understand at their own pace.
