I am very adaptable and can either teach in a very structured format, or focus on a students specific area of need. The first teaching session focuses on the students needs, preferences and proffered teaching / study methods. I can use this information to tailor my teaching to your specific needs. I hold an honor's degree in marine biology and a masters degree in marine renewable energy.

Very interested in teaching Arabic to students with ZERO experience but a strong desire to learn. My expertise is introducing new Arabic learners to the language. I am a native speaker of the Levantine dialect. The Arabic language is ancient and beautiful. I studied Arabic at the college level. Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) is the standard used for all Arabic media, newspapers, and publications. I teach MSA. I am very perceptive to individual needs. I have some material I prepared myself, as well as many texts, including the AL-KITAB I and II books that were developed and published at the Georgetown University Press. Bottom line. If you are interested in learning Arabic, I am interested in teaching. Lets get in touch.

I worked at Moorpark College as an ESL and Writing Tutor, helping students discover ways to identify and clarify ideas, refine a topic, outline ideas, and develop the skills needed to work independently. I have my BA from Scripps College in both English and History. I have significant experience tutoring within the humanities, but also German, math and the sciences. I started college as a Biology major, so I have a firm grounding in mathematics and the sciences, which I have bolstered to prepare for graduate school in Architecture. I was a Jumpstart (AmeriCorps) team leader, which involved implementing early childhood curriculum and promoting skill building for at-risk preschool children. 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 been an "instructor"-teacher for over 15 years. I teach math, economics, finance, business, and management for several colleges. I have been a Boy Scoutmaster and merit bade counselor and have worked with youth for over 15 years. I have always been given very high marks as an instructor with many comments on my positive energy and help for students. I have an applied mathematics minor so I would be able to teach algebra, geometry, trig, and introductory calculus. I am a question-answer type of teacher. I like to demonstrate, have them do, answer questions, clear up ambiguities, and then test or at least check to insure learning and understanding. I have a style of quiet, but firm expectations. I have a great amount of patience. I will do best with high school and college age students, and on occasion, with more mature middle school students.

I graduated from the United States Air Force Academy with a degree in Aeronautical Engineering. Math classes included Calculus I, II, and III, Differential Equations and Matrices, and Engineering Math. My MS in Engineering Management included several classes in Statistics and Probabilities. I tutored middle school students 12 hours per week for two years at Ramstein Middle School, Ramstein Air Base, Germany. I believe that each student is different, and that the best teaching method differs with each student. Some students respond better to being challenged while others will require smaller steps. The goals of the students also vary, some needing only to pass while others need a solid foundation in anticipation of further study. I believe I can tailor instruction to the students' needs.

First, I would review with the student the kinds of learning he or she had had success with and adjust the following to the student's learning style. For "Writing Research Papers" I would start with an excellent published paper and then I would review the student's work with explanation. For "U. S. Government" I would incorporate the skill of outlining and review the student's outlines until the important material was included and learned For "Statistics" there is nothing like doing problems. I would start with an explanation of the chapter's subject matter and work with the student in doing problems and discussing the method and meaning. While a doctoral student in finance, I assisted Professor David Rush in teaching Basic Finance to an auditorium of undergraduates. I had two parts to perform.

I earned a Bachelor of Science from The Ohio State University in 1984. My subjects of passion were math and science and I enjoy working with children who struggle in those areas. I have home schooled my son through the end of 12th grade and he was ready for college freshman classes at age 15. Starting in his second grade year, we were joined by a student who has learning disabilities. He also thrived in the tutorial teaching environment. My desire is to work with children who really desire to learn but need that extra time and encouragement to succeed. I have experience working with both audio/visual learners and a kinesthetic/tactile learner. The kinesthetic/tactile learner had learning disabilities akin to ADD, but still did very well in the small group environment. I believe that children who want to learn will do so given the proper setting and sufficient time to succeed. I h

I believe learning should be fun regardless of one’s age and I will strive to make reading a fun as possible for each child I tutor. Reading for pleasure or to successfully complete a variety of assignments is very important to academic achievement and certainly enhances our personal lives. I believe all children can learn but they do so at different speeds and preferred methods. Constant encouragement and achievable goals help children reach their potential. I am patient and persistent and would help your child continue to improve his or her reading skills. I have tutored an adult woman from the Philippines who had a third grade education by using the Laubach Literacy method and thoroughly enjoyed it. A life long love of learning has influenced me to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition and more recently, a Master’s degree in Human Relations with an emphasis in counseling. The

One of my key strengths as a science and math teacher is that after receiving BS & MS chemistry degrees, I’ve spent over 20 years as an industrial scientist (Allied Signal Aerospace, Eastman Kodak, & Ford). A common thread throughout this time has been to recognize the value of a good work ethic, character, and thriving on being a problem solver. After becoming a teacher (4 years ago), I’ve developed a passion for motivating “at-risk” and advanced students to learn through adept usage of differentiation, rigorous content, and experiential teaching techniques. I especially enjoy doing so one-on-one with individuals! I leave with a favorite quote from Albert Einstein; “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.” I tend towards a "supporting /coaching" style when teaching. Although there is no one best style for all situations, this style highlights the value o

I believe that all students can achieve in an academically and behaviorally rigorous environment. With the help of parental involvement and tutoring, and without watering down curriculum, any child can be successful if the effort is made. Most of my experience is in teaching classes that are textbook-focused and teacher-driven, although I am open to other styles as well. During and after my college years, I have always had an interest in helping others become better writers. For three years I worked as a tutor at Alfred University's writing center. I also have eight years of experience teaching junior high English at a rigorous school. The school I teach in has a back-to-basics curriculum with a focus on the rules of grammar and writing. I not only taught in the classroom, but also dedicated my time after school to tutoring individual students.

As a teacher with the Colorado Department of Corrections for 28 years, I had the opportunity to teach several subjects at several levels. Through my experience I had the opportunity to teach reading at a very fundamental level to adults. I also taught math and English to inmate students studying for their GED. I especially enjoyed the opportunity to teach English as a secondary language to non- English speaking students. I helped develop and teach an English grammar curriculum for a Corrrectional staff class. In 2005 I was honored by my peers to be given the Correctional Teacher of the year for a 5 state region. Some of my most rewarding times in life have been those when I help a student understand a concept that has bewildered him. I am usually able to find a unique way to make the student think about his learning. I try to teach to mastery. I don't believe efficient learning tak
