A Little Bit About Me...

I have 20 years experience as an educator and 2 years as a private tutor. I currently teach English in an adult education setting and have successfully tutored students in Reading, Writing, Grammar, Math, Study Skills, SAT/ACT prep and GED preparation.
My calling in life is always been in an educational setting. My experience has allowed me to use multiple teaching styles to match learners learning styles. I believe all students can achieve their goals with the right person in place. I am very patient and have high level communication skills. I truly care for my students and love what I do.

I taught debate and public speaking at Carroll College from 2000 until 2002 and briefly assisted the University of Montana debate program during the 2003 academic year. Both positions required hands on instruction in the basics of rhetorical theory as well as extensive research and writing. A good instuctor is able to separate theory from practice (in any academic discipline) and reassemble them so the student has a broad understanding of both components. I am a firm believer in reading comprehension as a precondition for student success and endeavor to impress upon students the need to continually expand one's knowledge base through reading.
I graduated magna cum laude with a B.A. in History from Carroll College in 2001. As an undergraduate, I was on the Dean's List for two and a half years; I was a member of the national honor society for students of Catholic colleges and un ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I like to take a holistic view to my teaching style and see what the children need out of a teacher. Sometimes I prefer to work visually and hands on, where other times I feel the children learn best from reading and going through the book. I like to be patient and take a more relaxed approach with children so that they feel comfortable with me.
I have worked for the past 6 years with children in school settings. I did a lot of tutoring work during my school counseling internship. I tutored 3 different middle school girls who needed help in all subjects. I also helped tutor 9th grade students who failed all of their first semester classes. I have expierence in classrooms teaching from my undergraduate work. I spent a semester accumlating hours, creating and implementing lesson plans. I have a lot of experience with psychology and history as those were my secondary education subject ... read more

Read More About Mike S...

I hold a variety of Montana teaching edorsements: K-12 Library, 5-12 English, Broadfield Social Sciences (5-12), K-12 Physical Education and Health, and History (5-12). Over the last seventeen years I have primarily taught Language Arts and history classes at the junior high and high school level in a variety of Montana school districts and in one in Nevada. I have also been an assistant and head junior high and high school football, wrestling, and track and field coach.
I believe in having all my students understand that hard work and perseverance will help them achieve passing scores in my classes while exhibiting good moral conduct and behavior. My philosophy of education begins with the students being rooted in the fundamentals of their subject matter and consistently achieving higher competencies as they achieve less strindent content standards.
