Everything is primarily example- and real-life-based, but I can cater to most individual learning styles. I have no formal teaching experience, only what the demands of life have taught me. I have helped fellow students with the day's lesson and homework.

After receiving a BS in Psychology from Michigan State University in 1991, I put my analytical skills and nurturing personality to work as an ACT and SAT coach. During forays into the corporate world over the next several years, I continued to tutor part-time, eventually helping to found Advantage Education® in 1997. Since then, I have worked with thousands of high school students in both a private and classroom setting, helping them to maximize their ACT and SAT scores. My sense of humor and down-to-earth style allow me to connect with my students and make learning fun.

I have been a substituion teacher for the past 3 years. I have worked in a variety of settings and have gotten the chance to teach different subjects and have learned from a lot of different styles.

Students should come to me with problems, questions, and having tried to understand the material first. Questions are important to me because they help give a sense of where you are getting confused and stuck. Physics and Mathematics are difficult, and there is no such thing as a stupid question. Ideally, students will do reading, and then work through concepts and problems with me, where I help when stuck and point out mistakes. Began as a Teaching Assistant (TA) in the Michigan Technological Universities (MTU) physics department as a physics lab TA for 3 years. Then I helped develop an Astronomy Lab and was the lab TA for a year. I then was a TA for a large lecture physics class for engineering students where I helped students on a 1-1 basis and helped the professor manage the class. In my final years as a Masters student at MTU, I helped run the online astronomy class and was the TA,

I am passionalte about writing and have taught in K-12 for over 10 years. I have vast experience teaching writing at both high school and college level. I currently teach Composition classes at our local community college. I understand what is required of students to be successful in both high school and college. I teach journalism/yearbook currently at my high school and I occasionally work in the writing center at the local college, working 1 on 1 with students. I can help your student get on track for high school, or help them achieve better skills in their college endeavors. My teaching style is relaxed. Students like how I am able to make writing fun with exercises to build their confidence, and improve their choice of words and clarify what they are trying to say.

For the past 30 years, I have worked with special needs students. I believe that students learn at their educational level. The problem with education today, is that students are often in classrooms that stress learning at their frustration level. Many students are in general ed settings, but are forced to use materials that they do not fully understand. In my role as a teacher consultant, I adapted materials so the students could understand it. If chosen as a tutor, I would do the same so the students would learn at their education level. I am a retired special ed teacher. I worked with Learning Disabled, Emotionally Impaired, Cognitively Impaired, and Austistic students primarily in the high school. I was an Assistant Principal in a middle school for four years, and a teacher consultant for 30 years. In my role as a teacher consultant, I tutored students primarily in the high s

I enjoy helping junior high and high school students excel in all their subjects. Particularly, I feel it's important to relate their current studies to real life situations to help them understand the link between the theoretical material and practical solutions. I have tutored math and science for high school children at the West Midland Family Center for two years and am currently tutoring all five of my children in all subjects. One of the key motivators for learning is the link between theoretical math or science topics and everyday problems that a student can solve using these skills. For example, to help a geometry student understand the significance of the area of a prizm, I asked him to consider how much paint he needs to buy if he wants to re-paint his room. A max/min calculus solution can help select the minimum fence length to create the largest yard for a dog. I also t

I believe that all students have the ability to learn if given the opportunity to learn. All students have different learning styles, and it is the teaches job to discover and teach students how to reach their potential. I have a friendly, firm, and fair approach with all students. I respect them, therefor they respect me. I am highly perceptive and use this as a tool when teaching students. I have a wonderful ability managing tasks, and developing valid beneficial learning experiences. I believe that students need to learn information correctly and with purpose. I would be an excellent choice for art students wanting some creative guidance. I earned my Bachelor of fine art's degree in studio art and a minor in art history. While earning my Bachelor's degree I taught a beginning ceramics course, worked as a ceramic technician and a shop technician for my university. I taught at a private

I believe that each person learns differently. It is important to identify how students learn and teach them accordingly. I like to make the information practical and help students see how it relates to their field of study. I enjoy helping others learn and want them to be able to apply it. I am patient, organized and creative. I have been a nurse for 10 years, 3 of which I taught nursing. During this time I taught Anatomy & Physiology, Pharmacology, Trauma & Emergencies, and Pathophysiology. This experience, along with 7 years of caring for patients in the hospital, has given me the ability to help students to better understand these subjects and apply them to the clinical area. I have earned a bachelor degree in nursing in a program that emphasized presentations and computer knowledge. This gives me a better understanding to help college students with projects and presentatio

I prefer to use teaching techniques that are indiviudalized and strength-based. I enjoy building rapport with students to help identify discover their strengths and personal preferences. I understand that some individuals may absorb knowledge better when using a hands-on approach or perhaps lecturing. I have taken a learning theories course in graduate school, so I am familiar with various learning styles. I am passionate about helping students generate goals and finding success. I feel comfortable working with various populations and look forward to helping you. I began my teaching experience as a teacher assistant at a pre-school program in undergraduate school.While at undergraduate school, I also was asked by a professor to become the tutor for two of his courses. Furthermore, I also voluntarily tutored individuals who were trying to obtain their GED. After undergraduate school, I co

My teaching style would be to find the student's primary learning style and converting the information he or she needs into a format that fits that learning style. Each subject would be made as visible or concrete as possible, so that the student could interact with the material on more than just a visual/conceptual level. Showing the student how the material can relate to real-life situations and opportunities would be a vital part of the instruction. After high school, I recognized in myself a desire to work with elementary- and high school-aged children. I have always been at the top of my classes and was heading for an engineering school before I discovered a love for helping kids. I do not have any teaching experience but I spent many summers working with these age groups at camp and enjoy interacting with them. I also easily understand most high school subjects and enjoy helping
