I have always looked at teaching as a learning process for which the objective is not only learning for students but also learning for the teacher. A great teacher is one helps the students see how these theories can be at least partially verified through life experience. I have often felt that the ultimate purpose of education should not be a mere accumulation of knowledge. Therefore, as a teacher, I believe my job has several aspects: teach students how to think instead of what to think. teach students how to process and digest as opposed to memorize, store, and display information. 05/06–Present Vice President of Operations YMD Oil Incorporation. 08/08- 05/09 Assistant Professor University of the Incarnate Word, Department of Economics.

I am a caring teacher who is encouraging and helpful.

I am a certified teacher in English and Math with 5 years of experience teaching in both public and private schools. In addition, I have been tutoring for more than 15 years and teaching summer camps for young people for 10 years.

I don’t have one specific teaching style that I apply to all students. I adapt my style to the student’s learning style. I believe in positive reinforcement; not negative feedback. I believe that all students can learn; they just need the necessary tools. They need to have a belief in themselves and a desire to work hard, and they can be successful. I believe in helping students understand how the material can be applied to their everyday lives and how they will benefit by obtaining this knowledge. I believe real-world examples help students understand the importance of what they are learning. I do not necessarily share my opinions on a specific subject; rather, I share the facts and help the student form their own opinions.

I work with students very well. I make sure that they are able to connect with me, and enjoy the process of learning. It's important to like what you are studying, so that you can get the most out of it. I feel as though it is necessary for them to enjoy the setting they are in, and I do my best to accommodate them. Learning should not be something that students do not look forward to, contrary; they should be excited to learn something new. I make sure that this is one of my goals, so that they can get the ultimate satisfaction and have that desire to solve the problems and answer the questions on their own. I don't just consider it tutoring, I consider it mentoring. Due to my desire to increase my knowledge, I graduated a year early from my university with a BA in Psychology, and a minor in Political Science. I am currently in Graduate School, majoring in Community Counseling. This is

I enjoy teaching when there is a bit of a challenge getting the student to understand the concept. As I have mentioned, I can use different styles to help the student get the concept. I have a great deal of patience and believe that everyone can learn. I enjoy the way someone looks after they have understood and mastered an idea. I tutored all subjects - especially in Math all through High School. I also tutored in college. I have strong skills in Math - all levels - but I especially enjoy algebra. I have two children and I basically taught my oldest son math, since he was a different kind of learner than the way they teach at school. He is a very kinesthetic type learner and needs to see, feel and touch to understand the concepts - so I used a lot of tools to help him. I can tutor math and science exceptionally well and other subjects for the younger levels.
