It has been my experience that students (regardless of age) learn best when the lessons can be adapted to things that are relevant to their lives. Journalism takes in every aspect of life, so whether it is 3D printing, gardening or politics learning to apply the tenets of journalism makes one a better writer and thinker. Reporter, editor, online editor and/or managing editor for daily and weekly newspapers in Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa and Ohio. I have had the privilege of covering politics, business, government, courts, police and community news; as well as feature writing. Additionally I taught JRN 295 for six semesters at Michigan State University.

I basically teach according to what the students like or is familiar with (art, sport, etc.) and I utilize what they're good at with the subject matter. For instance, if a student is into baseball, I teach math using scoring method, countries where players are from for social studies, speed of running, throwing, etc. for teaching science, and so on. With the younger students, I oberve them during choice time or free play and document what areas they are attracted to the most, how they interact with each other and their conversations. I use the data to help me develop and strenghten the abilities they exhibit. I attended Northeastern Illinois University and obtained a B.A. degree in Elementary & Special Education, with honors. My first job, straight out of college was as an Educational Consultant. I trained teacher how to us computers to install educational programs for their student

When it comes to starting a new subject, I start with questions to stimulate minds first. I start from the last step, example: How can we do elbow flexion? Then elbow joint constituents and their relation to each other Then the origin and insertion of the "Brachialis" as well as its nerve and blood supply.... I think this works for almost 70% of students. Some have a special aproach that can be discovered in their response to a general question like "What can you see through this window"? Such an answer could tell wheather they focus on the large image or on the details, wheather they get impressed by colors or movements..etc. I used to volounteer to help my fellow students in sessions similar to tutor under supervision of the assistant professor (who holds a PhD degree in the subject).

My recent training through the nationally ranked Illinois State University English Education Program required me to work with a wide range of learners (from advanced placement students to those with learning disabilities). Therefore, my ability to differentiate instruction has certainly been polished. Prior to this training, I completed a teaching internship in which I assisted, tutored, and created lessons for young learners. Most recently I have gone through a literacy tutor training program, which provided me with extensive knowledge on how to better help students succeed in reading, writing, and math. Such preparation has allowed me to become even more enthusiastic about passing on to others my passion for academic success. I would describe my teaching style as innovative, flexible, and passionate. After observing and working with countless students, I have realized that every indivi

While pursuing my honors degree in mathematics at the University of Chicago, I supported myself through numerous tutoring jobs. I have taught mathematics to students of all ages and abilities, including college-level calculus, set theory, logic, number theory, trigonometry, geometry, algebra, and arithmetic. I have also tutored my fellow students in various topics of physics. While conducting several research projects in pure mathematics, I spent the summers teaching public school teachers in Chicago new ways to improve their classroom instruction. I also have extensive experience in the humanities. My second degree is a BA (honors) in film theory, which is complemented by many classes in philosophy, literature, and art history. The advantage of one-on-one tutoring is the productive, personal relationship that arises between tutor and student. As a tutor, I use this relationship to make

I am a recent master's graduate in the field of Atmospheric Science. In addition I have a Bachelor of Science degree in meteorology with minors in both math and physics. I have had the privilege of working with students in a classroom setting as a substitute teacher the past couple of years. I enjoy helping students succeed by helping them gain confidence in a subject area. I have a passion for mathematics as it is a subject that many students shy away from. I have tutored students in math from Calculus down to Algebra over the course of 6 years. I have a burden for young people and enjoy the opportunity in helping them succeed. Probably one of the greatest influences in my life was a former tutor who pushed me to be the best that I could possibly be. That is a strategy that I strive for in everyone I have the privilege of tutoring. I demand excellence from my students. I don’t

I am extremely patient and even-tempered, but also very focused and passionate about education. Communicating with the student and parents is vital to the tutoring process. It enables the understanding of goals, expectations, challenges and different learning styles. One of my personal strengths is organizing and clearly explaining complex material. This, along with completely answering questions and reinforcing the subject matter, I feel are the keys to learning and retaining knowledge. I believe that demonstrating a strong work ethic (through punctuality and preparedness) and an enthusiasm for academics has had a positive effect on my students in the past. I truly enjoy tutoring and try to make a difference in the life of each student. I earned a BS degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington, where I tutored for 2 years in the subjects of physics, calculus, diff
