I am an extremely patient person. My teaching style stems from that. I encourage those I tutor to set goals for what they want to learn or accomplish and then assist them in working towards those goals. I am a culinary school graduate and a full-time chef. As part of my chef-ly duties, I regularly find myself teaching cooking techniques and helping people become more comfortable in the kitchen. When it comes to writing, that I do more for my own amusement, but I have always considered myself more of a writer than anything else.

more than 35 years of teaching experience in schools,language centers and academies throughout the Middle East. I am a language consultant in English and french where I designed curricula for various levels and trained teachers in linguistic methodology.Teaching is my lifetime passion.The teaching method should be tailored to the student's character,ability and the degree of assimilation.There is no standard method of teaching. Active learning is the most effective way to learn.This entails an ongoing dialogue between teacher and learner.For example,grammar rules are ABSORBED and not taught in an abstract way.At the end of each topic,a role play is implemented where the learner becomes the teacher,and vice versa as this is the best way for both the teacher and students to assess the level of the student's understanding.

Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style. Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back.

As I finish a master’s degree in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in training and development, I realize that I want to continue my formal educational while sharing my love of learning. My prior formal education includes a double bachelor in Honors Comparative Literature and Honors French earned with University Honors. My teaching and tutoring experience began in high school where I was a teaching assistant for the elementary special education classes. In college I was a teaching assistant for the honors department, taught English in Russia and Belgium and tutored friends in French. After college, I found myself “teaching” adults. As a national management trainee for Sears, I facilitated employee career development seminars. I trained military personnel internationally on software, have presented several classes to community organizations and, more formally, substituted fo

I have had 15 yrs experiences working with kids age 2-18 in different areas from reading, math, afterschool programs, special needs and general assistance. I completed my Masters in Education at Arizona State University and have worked in two different non-profits specializing in at risk youth completing high school. I have tutored in English, math, reading, and science in the elementary age. I have also tutored English and reading in junior high and high school. I have a very interactive personality. I love to get kids involved in their subjects outside of the textbook. I have seen from years of experience that students do better when the can find real life applications of material in everyday life then just to finish an assignment. I know that there are many different learning styles and no one particular way can be right for every child. I am flexible and want to help children accompl

Teaching is something at which I feel I excel. I feel the best way to learn changes in each individual. Not just children, but adults as well. I seek out the best way for individuals to learn and go from there, whether that be through reading, interaction or visual stimuli. Anyone can learn, and achieve whatever they want, they just need to find the appropriate way to do it, and find the motivation to do so. I feel I can help any child do just that. Learning has always been important to me. I've always strived to further my education and find new things to learn. I have earned a Master's degree in Integrated Marketing Communications, which involved english, writing, math, business, reading and of course marketing. I also earned a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communications. A lot more english, and writing was had, but also included a great deal of editing and grammar skills. During college

I have a Master of Arts degree in English from Utah State University and have taught EFL overseas and within the US. Recently (from 07-08), I worked as a Math Tutor for challenged fifth graders and also for Kindergarteners part-time at Lincoln Elementary in Layton while my son was in pre-school. I am competent in elementary math and sincerely enjoy helping others to find the inherent beauty of numbers and what they can do. I love kids - they are often sweet, funny, easily impressed and are a great audience. I know that it is possible to make learning fun through a close, interactive relationship with a student - showing and guiding them through your own discovery of the subject. There have been times when I could feel one of my students learning; it is always a smile-provoking moment and I treasure every one.

I absolutely love working with kids and teens. I believe that all children want to experience success, but each might define "success" a little bit differently. I am willing to take the time to find out what motivates each individual student and go the extra mile to help them. I am a firm believer in experiential education and try to relate what a student is learning in class to something they love, engaging and involving them in the process as much as possible. As a tutor, I do my best to make things fun while also making progress. I recently finished a double-major in college and maintained a GPA of 3.75. I took many education courses throughout my college career in obtaining my degree in Childrens' Studies. I have helped tutor in biology, earth science, social studies, English, algebra, reading, and Spanish.

As a social worker I have experience with submitting extensive reserach papers and psychosocial assessments. I have worked under the directiong of two supervisors who helped me fine tune my writing. I am comfortable with adjusting to personal styles of writing or a more structured voice. I have also studied psychology and sociology and am very confident in my communication skills. Although I have not tutored within a program I have worked as a literacy and reading coordinator in Boston, MA and have done peer editing for years. I have learned that when helping students learn it is important to think outside the box. I assisted in a middle school's afterschool homework sessions for emotionally disadvantaged teenagers. The only way to be successful in this scenario was by meeting the student where they were at and guiding them as carefully and directly as possible. I am patient and try my b

I am very passionate about seeing someone suddenly gain understanding about a specific concept. I strive to understand first the learning style of any student and create new ways to connect to them via that learning style. I emphasize communication and understanding questions and doubts of the student to maximize learning and retention, and I make learning fun and relevant. I am very patient and easy to relate to, and I try to be a friend before anything else; I am a tutor, they already have a teacher, and I specialize in supplementing what they know with what they need in addition. My goal is to help each student not only master their current assignments, but learn key concepts that will change their lives. For the last two years I have enjoyed working at the Brigham Young University -Hawaii Reading Writing Center as a tutor and center manager. My passion has been to help others learn a

I really enjoy teaching because I am passionate about the things that I am teaching and like to encourage passion for learning in others. I always strive to show my students the connection between the work they do in the classroom and its connection to society and the world as a whole. I feel that encouraging such a relationship with the work makes students more willing to seek out knowledge in and out of the classroom. I completed my BA in English at the University of Utah in two and a half years in order to begin work on my MA in English as quickly as possible. In the half year between completing my BA and beginning my MA, I was a substitute teacher in the Jordan School District in Sandy, UT. I have just finished my first year in the English MA program at Boston College where I was also a tutor at the Connors Family Learning Center. In addition to school and tutoring, I also work
