Elementary Tutor

I enjoy coming alongside frustrated learners who need an extra boost to support their academic growth. I am very patient and understanding, while at the same time communicating high expectations. I encourage and support my students by learning more about them and what strategies they need to succeed. I work to differentiate for the needs of each learner, recognizing that all students do not learn the same way. Ultimately, I work to instill confidence and a love of learning in each student.
I have taught elementary school for the past six years. I worked in an inclusive classroom where I differentiated for the needs of all students. I particularly love teaching reading, writing, and math. I have run many intervention programs, piloted new curriculum, and served as a literacy coordinator in my school to advance the teaching of reading and writing.

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching for over twenty years, primarily Middle School Language Arts. I have also taught Head Start, fourth grade, third through eighth grade science, and kindergarten through eighth grade music. I earned my Master’s degree in Classroom Education with an emphasis in MS Language Arts. Desiring to help as many students as possible, I continued taking classes toward a Reading Specialist’s degree. I was unable to complete the last class, a practicum course, because we moved out of state. I was a science major in undergrad, so can also teach elementary science and math up to and including algebra. I love working with students and seeing them succeed.
I believe all students can learn and use my training and experience to adapt my teaching strategies to individual learning styles. Using student interests can help direct teaching that improves students’ enjoyment of le ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My background in Atmospheric Sciences gives me a good base in science and math. I feel my skills will allow me to tutor with both science and math classes, including Calculus I and II classes. I have spent over a year at Project for Pride for Learning in Minneapolis tutoring low income people on basic and moderate computer skills and job searching advice when I was an volunteer there from May 2008 to July 2009.
I have a positive approach to teaching. I am very patient when I go through the lessons and go back and review any older material if it is needed in order to grasp the current lesson of the day. I work hard to make the content stick and I always enjoy to see that light of realization in their eyes when they grasp the concept I am teaching them.

More About This Tutor...

I want each of my students to reach their full potential, and have some fun along the way. The experience of twenty-three years in the classroom has taught me a great deal about how to address a wide range of skills and abilities in students. I know that some students learn better using auditory means, while others learn more visually, or that some are linguistic learners, some spatial learners, and some learn through body kinesthetics. I would need to know how the students in my care learn best, and then structure a curriculum to fit those needs. Conferring with parents would be an invaluable tool to assist me in my teaching.
I am different from most teachers in the fact that I have 23 years of teaching experience, spread throughout grades 1-8. I also have a unique background in Early Childhood Education, having spent one year at the St. Cloud State Campus Lab School’s Preschool, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Academic achievement shapes individuals and influences direction and outcomes in life. As a life-long learner, I believe in the power of education. I have earned a bachelors degree and a masters degree from private, liberal arts colleges. Through my diverse studies and report writing, I have gained extensive gramatical and communication skills. As a result of my education, I have been able to help tutor other students in their studies.
Just as we are all unique individuals, learning styles are uniquely individual too. We all process information and learn in different ways. For greatest learning success, teaching can be tailored to individual styles. Depending on the individual learner, styles can range from traditional to more discovery-based approaches. I believe in tailoring tutoring to the learner's unique style to achieve academic success.

A Little Bit About Me...

My first experience tutoring was in 8th grade when my 6th grade math teacher asked me to help some of his struggling students. I greatly enjoyed the experience and wanted to continue. I didn't get another chance to tutor until my freshman year of college. I volunteered to help a young man who could not take notes for himself. As the semester progressed, he asked for my help in understanding the material, so I began informally tutoring him in Biology. I also had the opportunity to tutor a young student in Short Calculus. Most currently I have been teaching a lab section at the University of Minnesota. The class is about 18 students and meets once a week for 3 hours.
I am a very motivating teacher. I encourage my students to strive to do their best with the philosophy that they will be amazed at what they can accomplish. I try to get my students excited about the maaterial b ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergraduate at Lake Superior College, I worked in the campus learning center. I tutored in Mathematics. I transferred my credits to the University of Minnesota where I completed my bachelors of science degree in Biology with a minor in geology. My passion is in plants and I enjoy identifying new as plants. Beyond identifying plants I enjoy learning about the habitats in which the plants thrive and the relation they have to the environment.
While tutoring in the Lake Superior learning center. I enjoyed tutoring the students. I would help the student break down the math problem step by step and explain the process. I would then sit with them and encouragement them to complete the next problem on their own. If they got stuck I would give assistance, through asking them questions or trying to help them remember the mathematical steps. If all else failed I would show them the pr ... read more
