A Little Help Makes All the Difference

All students learn best in various ways. I create lessons for the specific needs of each student.
I am a college graduate of Central Michigan University with a degree in Elementary Education, a major in science and minor in English. I have obtained 22 credits of my masters degree in Teacher Leadership for School Improvement and am 1 course away from my Reading Endorsement. I am also ESOL certified. I am a certified teacher and experienced tutor. I have experience teaching 4th and 5th grades, all subject areas, reading intervention for 2nd and 3rd grade, and reading and math tutoring experience all the way from pre-k through 9th grade. My reading graduate courses have given me great knowledge and understanding about reading difficulties, diagnoses and solutions. My years in the classroom have given me plenty of experience with various ways of teaching math “outside the box.” ... read more

All students are capable of learning, it is our responsibility as educators to discover what motivates our students and how our students learn. I love tutoring because you are able to tailor lessons to fit one specific child's needs and interests. I am a strict teacher who belives that given the right balance of stability and engagement, all students can achieve success! Working in a high needs school district in the city of Hampton, I learned that structure and compassion are two vital ingredients for engaged learning. I am energetic, fun, effective and organized. It is these attributes that keep students engaged in my interactive teaching style.
I am a highly qualified special education teacher, with an endorsement in language arts. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree from Michigan State University in 2008. My experience with tutoring and teaching learning disabled and other stud ... read more

I recently received my Bachelors Degree from the University of Michigan, where I studied English and Spanish. I chose a rigorous course schedule which allowed me to greatly develop my writing, editing, proofreading, and critical thinking skills. During my sophomore year of college, I began to facilitate creative writing workshops with youth and adults. This included editing and correcting for grammar as well as content, and providing useful feedback to my students. I continued with this work throughout college, and even after graduating. In addition, I taught an undergraduate course at the University of Michigan for the Program on Intergroup Relations. I was responsible planning and executing activities, teaching class sessions, and assigning and grading student projects, journals and exams for a class of 16 students.
I am extremely passionate about the education of our youth, ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an educator, I have had many opportunities to work with various different students. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education and a master's degree in teaching with an emphasis in learning disabilities. I have taught secondary special education for 5 years, focusing on math, reading, and writing. I have also privately tutored students of all ages and abilities in math, reading, and writing. I have excellent success in helping students improve their skills, often beyond what is generally expected of them.
It is difficult for me to say which age of student I love working with because each student I have worked with from age 6 - 25 has been very rewarding. I am very patient and work diligently to find creative strategies and approaches to teaching. I believe that all children should be encouraged to meet their potential by gen ... read more

Throughout my college career, I learned many reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. Academically, I am most familiar with the structure and requirements of written assignments. My work gave me over 5 years experience in the customer service field, where I trained over ten other associates.
I prefer to approach learning in a well-rounded approach. I feel that when others have a basic understanding of material, they are better able to ask relevant questions that are more specific. During school, peer-review was an area I excelled at. I am supportive in others' efforts, and guide them in the right direction, while paying attention to their strengths.

As a graduate of a Big Ten school, and a current master’s level student, I have had many focuses in school that I can teach in the tutoring setting. I also currently work in education as a tutor and a substitute teacher, sometimes as a child care worker. Subjects: political science, biology, math through pre-calculus, accounting, English, computer technology, and a few more. I have honed my writing and research skills through my experience in my master’s program, and through a year working as a full time staff writer for a health and wellness company. My teaching experience and family have aided me in developing a teaching style that appeals to the four different types of student learners.
My teaching methods vary depending upon the subject matter and the pupil’s preferences. I enjoy getting to know students and customizing their learning experience to the methods that will best se ... read more

As the eldest daughter of a teacher, it was instilled in me from a young age that I should strive to excel in my educational pursuits as well as other endeavors. Thus, I pursued the highest level of education possible, the doctorate, and also have continued to be a lifelong learner in many fields of study. Though my university degrees have been in the field of music, I have gained vast knowledge in many disciplines through my studies, travels and experience. Also, I have gained teacher certification in the field of TeSOL as a result of my interest and proficiency in English language usage and grammar. Through several teaching assistantships and a semester sabbatical replacement, I have gained 5 years of university teaching experience. I have also taught for over 3 years as a music teacher in the public schools, as well as over 6 years as a substitute teacher in all grades and subject ar ... read more
