I've worked domestically and internationally teaching English to non-native English speakers and editing their papers. I can also edit papers for coherence, for those who have trouble communicating ideas effectively in English. Primarily I've worked with refugees or asylum seekers who need to develop basic English skills for their transition into America. My teaching style is more informal, and focuses on personalized attention. Typically I will teach individuals or small groups.

I am a recent summa cum laude graduate from St. Catherine University in Saint Paul MN, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in French and Studio Arts. I am currently finishing a year long fellowship at the Marchutz School of Fine Arts in the South of France where I have participated in the immersive painting and drawing program in addition to providing guidance and assistance to students. In my spare time I also tutor English and French as a second language to children ages 5-10. Being extensively involved in the learning process of so many students throughout the past year has been one of the most gratifying experiences of my education and I look forward to continuing the work! Subjects I tutor include: French, French Literature, Grammar, Editing, Writing, Creative Writing, Proofreading, college applications I believe strongly in Experiential learning and alternative approac

I have always loved drawing and can teach basic concepts, from sketching to final pieces. I received my B.S. degree in Biology, and am knowledgeable about many sub-disciplines, including life sciences (plants/animals), genetics, evolution, and anatomy. I am generally able to explain difficult biological concepts in a more conversational way. I've worked with high school youth in the past (approx. 2 years experience) in a crew structure teaching job skills (resume writing, interviewing, etc.) and basic biological/ecological principles. I have worked with family and friends to teach basic personal finance and resume-writing tips to help them achieve great results. I am primarily an environmental consultant, and I routinely use MS Office programs to analyze, organize, and present data in easy-to-understand ways. I've taught several co-workers, family members, and friends how to use these p

One thing I have learned in my many years as a tutor is that each student is unique. I try to be flexible in my approach. With grammar and mechanics, I have found that a directive manner is often the best approach; sometimes, however, students require clarification of ideas and organization, in which case I pose questions and share observations, rather than instruct. With reading assignments, clarification of thesis, organization, and vocabulary are usually most helpful. Overall, I try to be as student-centered as possible in my approach to tutoring, without sacrificing a commitment to high quality instruction. I have a strong background in English, and am currently working toward a Master's degree at the University of St. Thomas. In addition to my strengths in academic research and writing, I have written solicitation letters and grant proposals for a nonprofit. I have tutored for

I really enjoy working with children and am grateful to be able to make a difference in their lives. I believe that all children can learn with the the right academic tools and the right tutor. I am patient with students and have a very easy going personality. I believe that children should work hard and be proud of their achievements and I am available to help students so that they can achieve their goals. I developed an interest in working with children at an early age while helping my mother, who is an elementary school teacher. After finishing High School I continued on to college and earned a degree in Elementary Education from Winona State University. I then moved to Milwaukee Wisconsin, where I taught both kindergarten and second grade. I have also worked in Minnesota for School District 194 as both an elementary summer school teacher and as a paraprofessional in a middle sc

My degree in psychology has enabled me to understand all children better, and to work especially well with special needs students. I have experience tutoring students from the ages of 3 to 40+. Subject-wise I have taught Writing, ESL, Spanish and Karate. I have even given self-esteem building talks to grade-schoolers and middle-schoolers. My experiences as a writing tutor, newsletter editor, as well as a Psychology ILP assistant allow me to excel at working with students on all types of writing assignments. Every child learns differently. In a world where we corporately streamline everything so that it all comes out pre-packaged and exactly the same we often lose sight of how unique each person is. I find that listening carefully to a child's reasons for having difficulty can help you to better understand how to help them learn. I find that children are often given too little credit - es

I greatly enjoy teaching children at all levels. Through a variety of approaches and encouraging persistence, I believe children can gain knowledge of and proficiency in all subjects. A multi-disciplinary approach ensures a child's growth has both depth and breadth. I aim to teach in a way that develops the intellect and cultivates the character of my students so that they become critical and virtuous members of and contributors to society. I became interested in tutoring during my three years of graduate study at Princeton Theological Seminary. Studying theology in my undergraduate and graduate work required me to invest strongly in multiple subjects such as history, philosophy, languages, politics and literature. This equipped me to tutor multiple subjects at various levels.

I really do place something of a premium on being able to connect with all of my students on an academic and personal level. I believe that this helps them as they know that their teacher and tutor cares about them and their future and, as such, this causes them to grow and excel. I can attest to such things happening with many of my students and for that I am incredibly thankful. I have done a lot of teaching and tutoring, both with adults and young people. Most of my experience, though, comes from working with high school and junior high school students. I spent the majority of that time as a tutor/ mentor and would work with the students one on one or in small groups, both in the library or in the classroom. It was really the most wonderful experience and I was able to provide tremendous benefits to the students on both an academic and personal level.

Beginning as a student working towards my TEFL certificate, I volunteered at Somali Adult Literacy Training and organization which teaches English to Somalis in the Twin Cities. I continued volunteering with the same organization for 3 years. I have worked with a variety of skill levels and taught students on my own. Additionally, I have completed a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies at North Central University. My fields were Education and English, but I have taken Calculus, Physics and Chemistry, and several years of art classes. I also study Spanish for four years. The philosophy behind my teaching is to let the student guide their learning by relating information to their lives and interests so that it comes to life for them. Every student has the ability to do well if their learning is valuable to them. It is my goal to help students discover a passion for learning and work myself out

I have always strived to excel in my education, and I want to eventually become a college chemistry professor. I have earned two bachelor degrees from St. Cloud State University, a BS in Biochemistry and a BS in Biology, which have allowed me to obtain a very large base of knowledge in both chemistry and biology. I excelled in Organic Chemistry in school, and performed Organic Chemistry research as an undergraduate. I also was a teaching assistant in college, and taught pre-lab lectures and assisted students with homework and labs. My specialties are basic chemistry and biology, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry. My goal is to provide information in small steps which eventually lead to the mastery of a subject. I include problem-solving and critical thinking in my teaching, since this will eventually lead to an independent student who really understands the subject. Even though my te

It has been my experience, both as a student and a teacher, that people learn best with positive reinforcement and patience. When assisting students I make it my goal to explain the subject matter step by step and to avoid confusion. I also know that students are more comfortable when they feel you are truly engaged in their learning experience and concerned about their success. It is vital that educators help students utilize their education to the fullest, even beyond the classroom. Education can be the basic foundation of self-confidence and it takes passionate educators to make this happen. I reflect often on those who helped me during my academics and who taught with genuine interest in their students. I strive to be one of those teachers. I have just completed my master's degree combining courses from both biology and anthropology. My thesis concentrated on awareness of nature and

I am a firm believer that EVERY can learn and deserves the right to an excellent education. As an educator, I do anything that I can to meet the needs of all my students. I encourage critical thinking/reasoning skills, lively discussion, and many hands-on and engaging opportunities for my students. I believe that teaching should be culturally responsive in order to be motivating, engaging, and powerful for all students. I have always had a passion for teaching and learning. I graduated from Wittenberg University with two BA degress- one in Early Childhood Education, and the other in Spanish. I taught first grade for two years in Virginia, and this past year have begun graduate work at the University of Minnesota. I will have an MA in Literacy Education, and an additional licensure in K-12 Reading. I have a passion to bring all children to the highest levels of literacy as I belie

I worked for at Higher Ground Academy in grade 1, while tutoring third graders in reading and math. then I was a Title I paraprofessional working to improve the Reading skills of students in grades 3-5. I believe that mastery of literacy in speaking, reading, and writing is extremely important for students of all ages. Children have been my main interest for many years. I have an interest in children learning as much as they can. I believe that understanding and succeeding in Language, (speaking, listening, reading and writing) are the most important elements to all other learning.
