Composition Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Nine Mile Falls, WA

My first teaching experience was in high school teaching at after school programs about basic economic principles that may apply to kids. That was my first time understanding that I have potential to assist others in grasping topics. In my college career, I found myself teaching people everything from music to proper uses of tense/grammar. It was there that i learned that you really only learn a small fraction of what you need to help you in life in the classroom. The rest must be learned on your own or with some one-on-one counseling. I know that any information can possibly be simplified and made clearer with a little time and attention to towards looking at the bigger picture or basic concept. The roles of the teacher and student are one in the same. I go into teaching knowing that I am not the end all shepherd of information but I am going to give all I can at being as clear, concise

As a retired Army Officer, I spent my military career coaching, teaching, and mentoring young adults. My profession was military logistics; my passion is education and teaching. I earned a bachelor's degree in Foreign Language and Literature (focus: French and German) and a master's degree in Adult Education. Both enhanced my professional skills and afforded me the opportunity to teach world wide and at the Army Logistics Management College in Fort Lee, VA. During the last five years, I assisted with the development of Army doctrine at the Command and General Staff College in Fort Leavenworth, KS. Also, I hold multiple military leadership certificates and diplomas including the prestigious Command and General Staff College.

I am the son of two teachers. I was raised around teaching and it is simply in my blood. I love the teaching in the classroom, I love teaching individual students, I love teaching. Not only do I have a passion to teach, I also have the knowledge and the ability to do so and to make it relevant. I find that students learn better when they see how the material relates to their lives. They want to know why it matters. I strive to show students the reasons for learning things and at the same time I teach the material. I believe that if you can show a student how the material is relevant to them, they can not help but be interested and thus excel. I have worked with students of all ages in a variety of scenarios, but my most recent experience is teaching as an adjunct professor at Eastern Washington University. My course was "History 110: The American Experience." I had 52 students and we met

I love teaching. I work well with middle school students, high school students and adults. I am very patient, relaxed and easygoing. I work with students at their level and based on their knowledge and interests. I believe in life long learning. I try to view all experiences as a chance to learn something new.

My approach to teaching is comprehensive and challenging. I believe in getting to know the strengths and weaknesses of my students and customizing the curriculum for optimum growth. My approach is to empower the students to achieve by teaching them the steps to attacking a challenge and working them trough it. Then I believe students have the support and stamina to increase the rigor of their curriculum. Once they realize how much they can achieve and that they have the tools and support, they are much more likely to take on the challenges set before them. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Whitworth University's teacher certification program. Since then I have successfully substitute taught in three school districts in the K-12 arena. I passed the Praxis II exams in Elementary Education, Reading Specialist, and Middle School Mathematics. In addition I pursue excellence rigorously and have

It almost goes without saying I love teaching. Few things warm the heart of a teacher than when a student has that "Ah-Ha!" moment as understanding dawns on him or her. I am patient, considerate, and always come prepared with more than one way to explain the solution to a difficulty. Above all, however, I try to show each student that learning is about growth and achievement in which they can take pride. As an Honors Graduate of Washington State University, Vancouver, I pursued my English degree with an emphasis on Educational Methods instruction. This enabled me to learn real-world educational fundamentals in building and presenting teaching materials. As a life-long writer, I have acquired extensive grammatical skills. I have also tutored such subjects as Cooking, Computer Support, and fundamentals in drawing.

I integrate as many subjects as possible and seek to provide the missing schema, background experience and knowledge, that is critical to learning to a true state of understanding and mastery. Every subject is interesting to a child who can understand it and apply it. Through an understanding of social styles, learning styles,multiple intelligences and the best of brain-based research, I provide that experience to every student. My last class was a self-contained 6th grade, with a 34% ELL and 14% special education population. My class average reading level rose from 4.6 to 7.1. Of all the students in the school who surpassed the required State testing and higher District goals in both reading and math, 75% came from my class, as did the winners of the school's essay contest, spelling bee and geography competition.
