Tutor for the summer

I am a speech therapist with 11 years and experience. I have worked with students pre-k through 12th grade, primarily pre-k through 5th grade. I have extensive experience working with students on reading comprehension, answering and asking questions, semantics of language (antonyms, synonyms, multiple meanings of words, attributes, categorization), syntax, grammar, phonics and much more! I have mainly worked with kids with disabilities, including autism, developmental delays, communication delays, speech and language impairment, and Down Syndrome. I have also worked with students on math skills. I am also very comfortable with tutoring in areas such as GED preparation, as I am good at math, reading, writing, science and history.
I use the iPad (excellent resource) books, worksheets and materials I make to fit the situation.

When I teach, I try my best to be open minded, and to give choices to the student, rather than follow a closed-box cookie cutter curriculum. I've found it's important to find a personal way of learning for a specific student. Variety is important, because every child learns a little differently. Some kids learn by listening, others by seeing. Some kids learn only when they're making things. Encouragement and recognition when progress is attained by the student is a great incentive.
I'm currently a student in school who has had a wide range of experience in various different subjects, specifically working best with mathematics, science and language arts in the elementary and middle school level. I'm familiar with I've been doing my best to educate myself in as best as I can, not simply for the sole purpose of filling a resume, but for the sake of learning.

Helping students learn and learn how to grow

I like students to be comfortable, enjoy their experiences with me as much as possible, and learn not only the material they need to study, but also habits and practices that will help them with future studies.
My teaching experience is broad across subjects and age levels. Learning and teaching excite me and I like to think that attitude rubs off on my students. It can be fun to learn, and even those subjects a student does not find enjoyable, can prove satisfying. I've taught middle school and high school, as well as at Bellevue College, Renton technical College, and North Seattle Community College. My own experiences include not just teaching, but also professional broadcasting, journalism (both broadcast and print newswriting, creative writing, editing, and reporting), writing a book, supervising employees as well as students, and poetry awards.

PhD Physics, able to tutor in science, math, engineering

I was a senior scientist - engineer for 37 years. I retired to care for my comatose wife at home, and she died a few months later. This situation has left me open to new directions. My teaching experience has been 3 years as a graduate teaching assistant, and 2 years as a tutor to friends and family in science and mathematics. My goal is to show how math and science can enrich one's life and these subjects are nothing to fear.
I follow the method of G. Polya in his classic work "How to Solve It". By asking the right questions, one can help the student define his problem, form a plan for the solution, carry out the plan, and examine the result. I also try to work as many difficult problems from the student's text as time permits, in order to show that all problems have a solution, and the student can build confidence in attacking any problem. I try to present the material in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My interest in educating others sparked when I first conducted a training program for engineers in my work place. Since then I explored the field of learning and development and gained a lot of knowledge on how knowledge flows from person to person. Inspired by my findings, I did my master’s thesis on Knowledge Management. Today, I share my knowledge with my co-workers by presenting new information. I do it in a way that is interesting and easy to understand. If there is one way I can differentiate myself with others, it is the way I share and present knowledge. I am interesting in tutoring under graduates, high school students on math, physics, chemistry, statistics and computer science.
I help people to understand complex ideas, gain new knowledge by presenting the information that is interesting and easy to follow. I use a lot of analogy when presenting the information. I ch ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

What strikes me most as I look back at my education is how much of an impact a teacher can have when they make their subject relevant to their students. When I am teaching I try to find out what motivates each student as a person, in addition to what is motivating them to take the class. My goal is to find a way to present the material in such a way that the experience of learning is a journey of meaningful discovery that corresponds to the course content.
While completing my BS in engineering, I spent two years tutoring math, physics, and optics. During my senior year I was also able to teach a portion of two terms of the freshman optics class. During the last four years I have worked as an aerospace engineer, and as a private contractor. Although these weren't teaching positions, I believe that these experiences have given me unique opportunities to share my knowledge and wi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Studies show that people who are used to success are more likely to try again and again when confronted with a challenge. My goal is to build a success-driven environment where the student feels like he/she can do anything. Of course, I challenge the student as well, but first I make sure they feel confident that they can tackle any obstacle they are confronted with. This method does take a little bit of time, but I have noticed that once that student is motivated through success, their academic improvement tends to improve in more than just one or two subjects. School becomes an opportunity to win, rather than a daily chore, and the student is engaged in learning.
My experience in tutoring is a mix of working with large tutoring agencies as well as local one-on-one at home tutoring services. I have worked with students on elementary school math and reading, as well as SAT and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love to introduce students to new ways of thinking about language, literature, culture, and history; there's nothing better than "seeing the light go on". My aim is to help students discover their own unique style and set of skills, and enable them to develop the tools they'll need to write in academic and professional settings. These values include succinctness, readability, and expressiveness. I believe that a methodical and organized approach to writing at each level—sentence, paragraph, and essay—provides the structure and discipline needed for true freedom of expression, and I encourage students in the basics like spelling, punctuation, grammar, and outlining, while emphasizing imagination and creativity of thought.

Through out my academic career I have faced many challenges, and many times have had to turn to tutors and peers for help, as a result I am familiar with the dilemmas children can face. Through my experience with children, I believe that all children find success if the material is presented in a manner that suites them. As a result I believe in trying many different ways to share my knowledge, I can help a child succeed in academically. Because each child learns differently, and faces different challenges and strengths, I value patience and perseverance in my interactions with them. I work towards helping each child see their success and become better people.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students one-on-one or in small groups so I can truly help them with their skills. To me, a key component of education is giving young people the skills they'll need for success after high school. This includes an ability to read and communicate through writing. My experience as a social studies teacher will also help people think critically and go beyond just what they see on paper. I realize that some students are frustrated with school, but through hard work and committed adults, they can achieve academic success and become life-long learners.
I taught Social Studies for three years at Mt. Rainier High School in Des Moines, WA. We developed a small learning community for 9th grade students. The average reading level in the academy was below sixth grade. The past five years I have been teaching Freshman English and Social Study classes at Coupeville Mi ... read more
