Let me Guide Your Child

Having taught for more than five years as a certified teacher, I feel that I have what it takes to be an educator. Understanding the psyche of the student is of prime significance to me, which helps me in directing the teaching strategies and techniques. In order to let the student realize the significance of learning, I try to design a curriculum that is application based.
I prefer that the student understands the purpose behind learning. In order to achieve my goal, I spend quality time in talking and developing an effective communication platform. I avoid doing rote learning. Therefore I make the worksheets and lesson plan as application based as I can. Some techniques and strategies are also employed on occasions.

We learn from our own mistakes.

I encourage my students to be the core of teaching by stimulating them to engage in discussions about certain topics of their liking. Also, I encourage them express themselves even though they might make mistakes. I help them find why is it a mistake and how to correct them.
I taught Arabic as a second language in Plainfield Indiana to students of different ages and of both sexes. I taught all language skills with some concentration on reading skills and conversation. The size of the class was relatively big as I had about 40 students. I encouraged students to express their ideas in the form of written sentences and the I would go over what they wrote in order to correct their sentences by showing the how to construct a sound Arabic sentences.

When I teach I want to engage the student or students. I want to grab their interest and keep it. This requires two main things of the teacher: he must know the subject well and he must have enthusiasm for the subject. This almost ensures that the student will enjoy being taught. I like an informal style, especially as classes get smaller.

A Little Bit About Me...

Since I have been around all different types of children, of all ages, I've learned each child learns differently. I will take an approach to different styles of learning to see which way your child learns best. If each child is given the opportunity to learn the best way they can, and not the best way I think they can, then each child will always be successful. As a teacher, I am very patient and considerate and hold no judgment on any child. I want each child I teach to succeed in life, and I'm there to help them.

I love helping other people, especially those that want to better their lives by acquiring a skill or talent. Many students who seem to “not get it” or have been left behind do learn what is needed if only they could relate it to their lives, had someone show them a different way to look at it, or would just take that extra moment to clarify the point. I also believe that all students will rise to any expectation or goal set when they are empowered with the tools needed to succeed and an inner belief that they are truly winners.
As a student at Sam Houston State University, I practiced my teaching skills by offering free tutoring to all of my classmates focusing on study skills, memorization and improving writing skills. I attained a BA in English while maintaining an A average, staying on the dean’s list, and earning scholarships. Minoring in history has allowed me to couple lite ... read more

I believe the key to academic success is ensuring the student feels a sense of accomplishment and pride in self. My method of teaching focuses on determining the best learning style and beginning with lessons that will bring about success, and then challenging the student gradually. I try to make learning fun, while encouraging questions and an "out-of-the-box" approach to problem solving. The ultimate goal is to develop an independent and motivated learner.
I currently work as a professional science/health writer, and I have a keen grasp of literature comprehension, grammar, and composition. I have tutored students in English, math, and science. Additionally, I have volunteered as a soccer coach, Sunday school teacher, and "Hands-On Science" instructor in the classroom. I previously taught private swimming lessons and piano lessons for children.

One of the most important parts of my teaching philosophy in tutoring is to adapt to each student’s learning style. While teaching Elementary Composition, I used technology in the classroom in order to make the required subject matter more appealing to my computer-generation students, by giving PowerPoint presentations and showing you-tube video clips as a means to practice analytical skills on popular culture. I also learned ways to appeal to visual learners, auditory learners, and hands-on learners.
As a college level Associate Instructor of both Introduction to Creative Writing and Elementary Composition, I have taught students the fundamentals of analytical reading, writing, and research skills in creative and academic arenas. In addition to my background in teaching, I also tutored in Loyola University Maryland’s Writing Center during my senior year of undergraduate studies. A ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The majority of my teaching and tutoring experience comes from instructing college freshmen in how to write intelligent, thesis-driven essays. I hold a BA and MA in English and have taught writing courses at the University level as well as tutored remedial students. I am well-trained in helping students to become careful, critical readers, as well as develop original and convincing arguments through the careful crafting of strong thesis statements and supporting ideas.
My teaching philosophy is to set high standards and to work diligently with students to achieve them. One's ability to communicate ideas clearly is the cornerstone of both academic and corporate success. The way to achieve this is to first become a critical reader. A student must understand the pattern of a well-formed essay before writing one of his or her own. Once a student has grasped the above, we develop origin ... read more
