Hi everyone! My name is Danielle Miyagishima and I've been tutoring math and science for pay for the last 2 years. I have done private tutoring for high school and college students. I have also been employed by NMSU's tutoring center. I have also served as a "BioCat" which is a biology catalyst. A biology catalyst is a type of teaching assistant that works with NMSU's biology department. I led my own class where I was in charge of helping students get through a series of worksheet related to biology lecture. I have many professors, and personal recommendations upon request!

While serving as an adviser to the Peer Counselors team at Woodstock Union High School, I was also a substitute teacher from 1994 to 2001 when I moved to NM. I am a published author at Haworth Press/Taylor Francis Publishers of the book Pastoral Care for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder: Healing the Shattered Soul. I have also been a newspaper editor and received an award from the Massachusetts Press Association in the category of Best Editorial. I have tutored my own children in English in an unofficial capacity.
As a strong advocate of public education, I believe in supporting our educational system. I have been told my effectiveness as a substitute teacher was the result of my respect for the students and my unshakable calmness and patience. Even as a sub, I enjoyed encouraging a love of learning in the students and a sense of curiosity. I also believe that each student has the ca ... read more

As a non-traditional student I recognize the necessity to create a level of confidence that inspires a student to continue their education with success. I feel that perspectives on learning and my life-experience make me an ideal contact for any student interested in mastering the topics of math, physics, chemistry, or Spanish. I am experienced in the grading and writing of lab reports and other technical forms of communication.
I got my first teaching experience as a lab instructor for undergraduate physics labs and fell in love with the profession. The best part of the experience is seeing the student grasp a concept that they felt out of reach. I enjoy coming up with inventive ways of communicating the difficult portions of math and science. Most of my students benefited from my teaching style which includes many examples and encourages a dialogue approach to difficult conce ... read more

I have always loved children and work hard to make a difference in their lives. Children are very diverse learners and I believe, as teachers, we need to discover the key to what really motivates them. Every child can become successful if they are given the appropriate tools and the opportunity to learn in a way that is specific to their learning abilities. My theory of teaching is through the use of constructivism, a theory asserting that children learn by gradually making sense of their world based on a combination of their background knowledge and what they experience. I also use scaffolding, modeling, and inquiry-based teaching. I am dedicated to helping each child achieve their greatest potential.
I graduated in 1999 from NMSU with a degree in Elem/Spec Education. While attending school, I worked in a group home for troubled teens and at a facility for adults with disabil ... read more

My experience includes working 19 years using engineering and geological knowledge to explore oil and gas reservoirs. My full time teaching started in 1996 and I retired June 2009 with 14 years experience. I have taught various high school sciences including Environmental Science, Biology, Astronomy, Meteorology, Integrated Physics and Chemistry, Physics and Chemistry. Most of my experience is with the Physical Sciences. I tutored students who were using the Plato computer program in our after school program. During one summer school session, I taught Algebra 1 to 30 students
Teaching is a very rewarding experience. I especially like to see when my students progress to a higher level. I believe all children can learn but they often have ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For the time that I spent teaching, my experience included working in a newly established school in Saipan where I was involved with a class that had different age levels, such as third, fourth, seventh and eighth. This allowed me the opportunity to learn to work with various age levels as well as different nationalities. Also, I spent time working for the Las Cruces Public School System in which I was able to labor with teachers who had students with learning disabilities, plus regular elementary age kids. This occasion allowed me to appreciate the hard work the teachers put into the students and understand how hard it can be, yet to persevere no matter what may happen, since any little improvement is an encouragement to them. Plus, the time that I spent tutoring, mainly elementary age groups, gave me the ability to understand the importance of working with people who are struggling and ... read more
