Communications Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hawley, MN

I have had a variety of work experiences in the past ranging from resident assistant, teacher, counselor, and multicultural tutor. These experiences have lead to the building of invaluable skills such as organization, prioritizing, adapting quickly to challenges and changing environments, and strong self-management skills. Effective communication and interpersonal skills were needed to succeed in each of these endeavors as well. While working in these different roles I was able to exhibit my natural leadership, creativity and problem solving skills. They were rewarding experiences that required my enthusiasm and dedication. I am an industrious and creative teaching professional with the ability to teach, motivate, and instill a love of learning in others. I feel the desire to make the most of every moment to ensure these students get the most from the experience. I plan a variety of crea

During my time at Concordia College, I was a strong tutor and office manager for the Reading/Writing Center, helping with composition in both English and Spanish. My grammar and usage knowledge is quite extensive, and I love tutoring writing and composition. I've also done quite a lot of tutoring in the ESL environment, as well as tutoring elementary math and reading. I see my job as that of facilitator: the student is there, the information is there, and the student is the learner. I'm just there to guide, explain, provide details, clarify, relate new information to existing knowledge, etc. The student has to be "in charge," so to speak. I can't force knowledge into someone's mind, it has to be learned, but I can help make that information real and relevant to provide the motivation to learn. I'm very attentive to affective factors (stress, irrelevance, animosity, etc.) that can im

Every kid is different in their own special way. You need different tactics per different kid. Being that I am patient and caring I know that it wouldn't take long for them to get comfortable with me and have me assist them. I believe that every good deed should be rewarded and if the student is doing well he shall be treated so, with a possible treat or even a pat on the back. I feel that if a child is told what they are doing right rather than what they are doing wrong they are more likely to have a positive outlook on what task they are trying to accomplish. As a young college student I understand that my experience doesn't compare to those with degrees and much time doing it. But I know that being an older sister to younger brothers and sisters while helping them with homework and watching them grow up is a type of tutoring. I have been there for all my brothers milestones, when he l

I have one year of experience teaching children. This experience was teaching a nutrition and wellness program designed by Fargo Cass Public Health to elementary age children. I have a BS in Community Health Education, which has given me the skills to design, implement, and deliver many lessons on health-related topics. As an intern at the Alzheimer's Association, I was able to teach professionals and the community about the disease. I also possess excellent grammar and reading skills as the result of writing many research papers. Currently, I help people with disabilities find employment. This allows me to practice my writing skills on a daily basis as I compose notes on the service I provide to my clients. I also teach them skills such as resume writing, how to talk to employers, and how to improve typing speed. I believe that all children learn differently, and if each child identifie

I tutored elementary students at Bennett Elementary School in Fargo for a year, helping them with reading skills and work. As a professional communicator, I have worked in broadcast and print journalism and have been a professional writer for 17 years. I have extensive writing and grammatical skills. I have worked for reputable companies, such as Microsoft, as a marketing manager. On a personal level, I have taught Sunday School to ages 3-13 for 10 years at Triumph Church in Moorhead and I taught taekwondo at the ATA Black Belt Academy for one year. I am a mother of two and enjoy working with children. I am a very interactive teacher and connect easily with the students. I am able to see the potential in each child and can work wtih the individual to help them succeed. Building the child's confidence is the most important goal I have as it allows them to focus on the skill they
