By sparking curiosity, asking questions, allowing time to think and investigate for answers, and pointing out clues that will hopefully lead the students to discovering answers, I hope to mentor my students like a creative safari tour guide. The desire to learn and think critically must be instilled in all learning environments. These things are imperative because they are skills needed for life. I want to be a life-long learner; and I want my students to be as well.

Learn German Today!

This is your time and your money so you shape the lessons, but I do have a few things that I insist on. - Grammar is very important and needs to be the cornerstone of all lessons, I will try to make grammar as painless as possible, but it is very necessary and frankly, I love it. - I will try to do the lesson in German as much as possible, you may struggle a bit, but don't worry, It will help you grow much faster - Homework is optional, but we can't move very fast if you don't practice outside of lessons
German I have studied German for 7 years. I began in the 8th grade, from there it quickly became a hobby of mine. After freshman year of high school I spent 3 weeks in Holzkirchen, at a language school. When I returned I skipped a year of German. Finding that not challenging enough, I skipped yet another year over winter break. So, by spring of my sophomore year, I was in AP Ge ... read more

Local Artist, dreamer, poet, looking for new students!

I am a Drawing instructor at Metro Community College. I have conducted workshops in Collage, Acrylic, Drawing, and Watercolor Painting. I have been an instructor for three years now, and I have tutored people of all ages. I work fast, and often outdoors in nature. Students of mine usually say they both get to make art, and also get in exercise at the same time.
I ask many questions, show examples from Art history books and offer intense understanding in theory and practice. I am always respectful, polite and demonstrate passion for Art. I look forward to working with you!

More About This Tutor...

The process is just as important as the product. If a student can come up with the correct answer, but he or she has no idea how or why it is correct or how they got it, I feel like their learning is incomplete. Especially in Math, but also in many other subjects, concepts build upon each other. For this reason, I like to explain not just *how* to get there, but also *why* we got that answer; then students have a firmer foundation for the trickier concepts. I love seeing the lightbulb "go on," when kids finally "get it."
I have been a teacher for 7 years. I have taught in a small-town private, Christian two-room schoolhouse (K-8); I currently substitute teach for OPS, and have been to all but one school in the district. I have also tutored on and off over the years, both individually and in small groups, both privately and through school district or companies. I enjoy working with ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Coming from a family of academicians, and a father who has a doctorate in education, I learned to love learning at an early age and have always valued education and try to instill that in others. I am proficient in many areas and work well with all people from all walks of life, at varying levels. My experience comes from being in a helping profession, in which I assisted hundreds of people live up to and achieve their highest potential. Having three children of my own with varying learning styles, as w well as working with other children and adults, enhanced my my ability to understand individuals and how they learn.
I take a non-judgmental approach, and start where the student is at. Putting a client at ease and forming a trusting connection with the tutor, is vital to the ultimate success of tutoring, (as well as competency in the subject matter.)

Experienced tutor specializing in science and mathematics

I try to work with students to find connections between different aspects of the material that we're working on as well as to find connections to other subjects. I find that by relating specific topics to broader perspectives on a subject as well as related subjects, the student can gain a greater appreciation for the coherence and importance of a particular subject area.
I have experience working with students who are advanced and seeking supplementary tutoring as well as with students who are having difficulty with a subject. I have tutored mathematics as well as chemistry, biology, physics, and other subjects. I have tutored students from a range of ages and I worked with my first student over four years ago while I was in college.

'The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires'. These words by William Arthur Ward, could not be stated any better. As a Summa Cum Laude graduate and currently a PhD student at UNL, I cannot be grateful enough for the many teachers/professors along the way who not only took an active interest in my academic and professional success, but also had outstanding teaching methodology, genuine passion, and commitment to their work that inspired and motivated me as a student. Out of this experience, I have been inspired and motivated in many ways to take the lead and help many students reach their full potential. During both my undergraduate and graduate studies, I have had the pleasure of helping hundreds of students reach their own potential. I have seen results of great satisfaction and improvement in students' grades, wh ... read more

Experienced Mentor, fluent in Chinese

I've been a Mentor with Lincoln Public Schools for over a year. Mentors function as one-on-one teachers for gifted students in an area of their strength. I've taught math to elementary school students (many of whom were in middle-school level math) and am also qualified as a Chinese mentor for all levels and a Social Studies mentor. I also work at the Kumon Math and Reading Center and primarily assist young students who are learning to read. In the past I have assisted Chinese students preparing for the SAT and TOEFL, and also tutored numerous subjects for high school students.
I try to find out what a student is interested in and incorporate that. In my work with Lincoln Public Schools I often have extra time with students since we complete the required material more quickly than the general class, and I often use that for special projects that apply the concepts we're learning to ... read more
