I have a background in Psychology, so I am extremely intuitive with what a person needs regarding their learning style. I am able to adapt my teaching style to their needs. Patience is something that I have learned over the years, so I am able to work well with those who just need a little extra attention. One of my greatest talents is being able to put myself in another's shoes, and therefore understand why it is something is not clicking. This way I can develop their skills through their best way of communicating. I began tutoring people when I was in the eigth grade. I decided I wanted to help out at the school across the street from my middle school in Colorado. I enrolled in a class that allowed us to go and assist the teachers and help the students. I fell in love with kids then for sure. I already knew I liked them because I started babysitting when I was 11 and couldn't stop! The

Before I began my professional teaching career, I worked for the Read Across America program helping young learners gain an appreciation for reading. I mentored elementary students who were labeled at risk due to low performance in reading. In 2001, I began teaching pre-k in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In 2005, I relocated to Houston and began teaching kindergarten in Ft. Bend ISD. I taught 4th grade Math and Science for 2 years. Currently, I work as a 2nd grade ESL inclusion teacher. I have experience teaching students identified under the special education umbrella- autistic, asperger's Syndrome, and various developmental delays. I have successfully tutored students with ADD, ADHD, and other conditions that make it difficult for them to be 100% successful with classroom instruction only. Due to my background in early childhood, I teach using hands-on manipulative based strategies.

I have taught for 3 years at Sam Houston State University for the Department of Chemistry. As a high school student I tutored off and on for around 4 years. I am currently working on my Master's in chemistry at SHSU. I love helping students understand concepts that seem 100% foreign to them. I teach mostly geared towards visual learners. I tend to use visual and real life examples to push my students to grasp the concepts for themselves. I prefer to make them do the work and answer questions as we move forward. I do not believe students should just be given answers. They should be given the tools to answer the questions for themselves.

My teaching style is to engage young people into the developmental process, through empowerment. By allowing young to have a say in their own development, I find it makes them more willing to be open for learning. I am driven by my passion for young people to succeed; and I am always open for incorporating their ideas into the teaching process. As, a product of the inner city, I was always interested in helping young people who came through the same path as I. I have a BA, in Broadcast and Communication Arts, and a Masters in Social science in many history subjects. To aid in my teaching abilities, I have work, in Research and Community Development for over thirty years. I have trained young people to go in the community and make presentations particularly around health, for over twenty years.

I have always had a fascination with the past; as a child I read book after book on dinosaurs and as an adult I studied and received a BA in History with a minor in Political Science. Through my years of schooling I have developed not only my writing skills but my skills in foreign language. After studying German in high school and living abroad in Germany for a month, I studied German in college and now read German stories alongside my history books in my spare time. Every child can learn but since everyone is different, a different approach is needed to ensure the information and abstract concepts are fully understood. Auditory learners like myself would learn best from an entertaining lecture followed by auditory questions designed for the learner to discover for him or herself what it is they were looking for with myself as a guide. Visual learners would learn best by a movie or r

As a person who holds both a BA and MA in English, each with concentrations in writing (creative and technical, respectively), I am qualified to, and have for several years, tutored English language studies skills, including composition, grammar, punctuation, and reading comprehesion, to students from the third grade through college. I have also taught English composition at the college level.

As well, I have tutored primary school students in science and arithmetic. Finally, I have also tutored beginning guitar. My teaching style is one in which I strive to engage students in the subject by both instructing and challenging them to think on their own. I also strive to accomplish this goal in such

As briefly stated above, I love teaching! I love working with children of all ages. I have been quite successful as an instructor because I have a fantastic rapport with students. Among my qualities: I am patient, flexible, knowledgable, easy going, and have a great sense of humor -- which really is important. I am a big believer in giving feedback to students. Yet, I always do this in a constructive format. I always try to create a successful learning environment so the student may succeed. My main objective in tutoring is to find out a child's strengths and weaknesses. From there, I can garner an idea on how best to tackle turning the weaknesses into strengths. I always give 110% at everything that I do. Helping a child learn is no different. I have two degrees from college: A Master's Degree in Communications and a BA in Journalism. I have been teaching now for about eight years (all

My enthusiasm for teaching is manifested in my personable teaching style. I want my student to have a complete and confident understanding in any material they aim to master. I work with a clear and disciplined lesson plan to be as efficient as possible. Also, I feel a relaxed and comfortable environment is essential to having an optimum learning experience. I believe in good education and have personally witnessed the value and power a great teacher can impact on a student, and I want as many people as possible to experience educational success. As a college graduate, I have a fervent passion for teaching and mentoring. Earning a B.S. in Chemistry and a minor in Mathematics has given me a valuable understanding of math and science. I also have numerous experiences teaching, mentoring, and chemistry research. I have been employed by several tutoring initiatives for students on universit

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling. I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal oppor
