I have a unique educational background in wanting to be educated but obtaining a degree along the way. My classroom experience is board covering many disciplines and how they connect and overlap. Hence the desire to be educated, to be able to think, reason, wonder, explore ongoingly through out my life drives me still after all these years. My appetite for learning only seems to increase as I age. I also have a broad range of work experience that is integrated into my academic experience.

My experience with tutoring began in high school, when I started assisting elementary students with homework through one of my clubs. Throughout the two years I was involved, I regularly helped 6 students, along with 6 students that I met with irregularly. I have experience tutoring children with behavioral issues, learning disabilities (dyslexia, ADHD, ADD), as well as students on the Autism Spectrum. I'm willing to assist in almost any subject, including elementary school Spanish, up to French 2, and ACT/SAT prep (my scores are available upon request). I'm currently a student at Western Michigan University's College of Education and Human Development, from which I'm expected to graduate with honors in 2019, my transcript is available upon request.
At our first session, I ask that each student complete a short quiz to determine their learning style (visual, auditory, kinest ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In the past, I provided education in Mathematics, English and Spanish to freshman, undergraduate students , and children.I also counseled on good studying habits, time management skills and the fundamentals of the particular subject. In addition, I assisted with tutoring eight students on a consistent basis and had a proven success evidenced by superior/ace results in all subjects taught. Lastly, I supervised and taught a student who missed half the semester and ensured that the individual aced the course.

All students can learn.

Twenty-years of teaching in the public schools. Experience with grades first to sixth. I have used multiple intelligences in lesson plans. I have created and developed lessons that touch on all learning styles. I have worked in low socio economic areas where the students face poverty, crime, and broken families. Education is their way out and my experience has always centered on what each learner needs to be successful.
Student needs based. Assessment drives my instruction.

I have just graduated high school, and have just finished thirteen years of learning. I have ADD, and have had a semester's worth of interning at the Specialized Language Development Center, working with kids who struggle with reading, writing, and comprehension. Kids brought to the center are usually dyslexic, ADD/ADHD, or have some type of learning disability, however, those without disabilities come for help too, ranging from kindergarden all the way to college level students.

I have tutored 80+adult males students five days a week for over seven years,providing them counsel and life skills. Please feel free to call Mrs. Amy Adams,my educational supervisor, at Terre Haute,IN. I was a very successful tutor at FCI Terre-Haute from 2005 to 2012. I love to teach a large or small group, knowing the importance of mastering one lesson at a time before you move to the next.
I believe strongly in teaching students the rules to understanding the lessons being taught,"first",and I love to demonstrate examples on a chalk board. Also, I remind students that there's no such thing as asking a "bad question", so if you don"t understand what's being taught..please ask questions.

I am an entrepreneur with four years experience at organizing and operating a non-profit organization. My organization develops affordable, democratically controlled housing in downtown Kalamazoo. Building KCH, I gained many technical and professional writing skills. In addition, it was requisite that I teach my colleagues the very skills I was learning. I am also a lifelong learner. Western Michigan University awarded me a Bachelors in Science for completing my majors, Urban and Regional Planning and Rhetoric and Writing.
I have two children ages eight and five. We learn with each other through discovery, often turning to our dictionaries and computers for information. I think that the greatest skill for one to learn is to be able to seek information that can be synthesized into the answer that is needed. I use constructive criticism, making statements that demonstrate why an answ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As you can see from my experience, working with children has long been a passion of mine, and is ultimately my career goal. I thrive on discovering the individual learning styles of children, and learning how best to communicate with them in order to help them reach their full potential. I am calm, patient, compassionate and most of all dedicated.
I am British born and educated, and discovered my passion for teaching in Vietnam when I taught English as a second language to children aged from 4-12. Since then, I have graduated with an Honors degree in History, and worked with several child-centered programs. I am currently working for Active:Water in Kalamazoo where part of my role involves educating children about the water crisis, I am also interning for the Humane Society in their Educational Programing department.

I truly believe that there is no greater joy than making a difference in the life of a child, therefor I take pride in my job as a teacher and strive to do my best 100% of the time. I expect the same attitude and effort from my students. I believe that setting high standards for students leads to successful learning – if you tell a student over and over that they can, eventually they will. I also believe that effective teaching involves differentiating instruction to meet the specific needs of students, organization and planning, and creativity.
I am certified by the state of Michigan to teach elementary all subjects, as well as middle school Language Arts and Social Studies. Over the past 10 years I have worked with students of all ages in a variety of settings including after school programs, child care facilities, and classrooms. I am currently a substitute teacher and in the p ... read more

My style of teaching is repetition of material focusing on specific areas where the student is having problems. One on one approach until the lesson is grasped by the student has proven to work more than group settings. Once the area of concern is learned the student usually continues getting it down pat on their own with me as backup or a question resource from that point.
I have 20+ years experience in the computer field and I had a 3.0 average in general studies. I have a BS in computer science and an AAS in microcomputer technology. Most of my education was self taught beyond high school. I've also tutored and mentored school age children for approximately four years when in college. All math and science subjects were from high school from basic math to calculus, trigonometry, and basic geometry. Physical and earth sciences are also strong suites.

I have spent the better part of my life either in school or teaching in one form or another. I highly value both the process of learning and of passing on my knowledge. I have intend to make this my life's work and as such have almost always held teaching positions. I tutored fellow students while an undergraduate and after graduation I taught autistic students in math, reading, art, speech therapy and physical education for 5 years. Then, as a graduate student I taught Human Anatomy to undergraduates. Though my own education is in psychology and biology my years of education have provided me with a broad base in the arts, history and literature/writing as well.
I believe that teaching styles need to be flexible to the student. I have worked with a very wide variety of students, from the severely limited autistic youth to the highly gifted medical student. While approach and focus ... read more
