Speaking Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in North Street, MI

I have always enjoyed English and Writing. I have kept a journal since I was in the 1st grade. I scored very high in these areas on my ACT's, as well as in all of my high school and college classes. I am enthusiastic, kind, positive and approachable. I passed my state boards on the first try because I feel I have excellent study skills. I enjoy working with people and find joy in helping others. I was a substitute teacher for a short period of time before taking a job as a counselor in 2004. In 2006 I moved to the Blue water area and have been employed as a medical social worker at a rehab and nursing center. I am looking for an opportunity to help others succeed in school and life.

Although not degreed in math, science or computers, they were my favorite subjects. More importantly, I am gifted in communicating concepts into terms my students understand and grasp. Repetition doesn't equate to learning, it's a component, it's a way to practice, but it is not how the mind grasps the concept. You will find me kind and patient, I understand you may not get the concept the first or second time. I do however, have high expectations in completing homework. It doesn't have to be correct, but it must be done. This personal responsibility will help you far beyond any course I help you in. Patient, relaxed, friendly. Able to translate concepts into different scenarios in order to help the student grasp the concept.

I have over 10 years teaching at the college level. Some of that experience is face-to-face and most is online. I am a strong advocate for education. I also have two children of my own who I work with on a daily basis. Both of my children excel in school and I believe it is because of the one-on-one work we do at home. I am a believer in life-long learning. I believe that as a teacher it is our responsiblity to find the technique that matches with the child in developing their ability to learn. I have children of my own and I love to watch as they learn new concepts and grasp ideas. I believe it is a partnership between children, teacher and parents to create the learning environment and support.

I love working with students of all ages. I believe that education and very important and it is something that no one can take away from you. I want children to know that an education is important and that it is okay if you are the first person in your family to graduate from college...that just means that you made a difference. I am currently taking courses to complete my Masters in Post-Secondary education along with mentoring high school students for experience. With my business background and the need to better the educational system, I am the perfect candidate for this position.

My passion is working with students and seeing that my teaching styles are getting the students motivated and excited about their progress. As stated above I use different teaching styles with each student and their need. I always begin by giving each student a short test that I use to evaluate exactly what their strong and weak points are in order to create a tutoring program especially for them. As a graduate student from Central Michigan University I have learned several different methods to use when tutor students. Knowing that all students do not learn the same way or at the same speed I use several different programs/methods when tutoring a student. With younger studengts I use a combination of work books and computer lessons along with small homework assignments. With older students I use programs such as writing small reports at first while slowly building them up to larger y

My personality lends itself nicely to the art of teaching, both adults and children. Thankfully, my educational and professional background supports my ability to tutor in all areas of elementary education, particularly Language Arts. As a young student, I was terrified of mathematics. I carry with me the humility I felt at that time, being frustrated and falling behind, when I approach each individual child and their challenge. From my experience I know how helpful tutoring can be and I take great pride in being able to help a child overcome an educational obstacle. Lastly, I always make sure the child I’m helping knows I believe in them. They CAN do it, and I’m here to help. I have several years experience volunteering for the HOSTS (Helping One Student To Succeed) Program, affiliated with the Troy School District (Michigan). I have received their “Outstanding Mentor” Award 3 ye

I began officially tutoring four years ago, starting up a private tutoring business. Through it, I have taught ages 5 through 55 in nearly all subjects, including mathematics, science, physics, ACT, and English. I also have tutored publicly at Oakland University for one year, where I earned my tutoring certification (level 1). My passion is in watching others to succeed, and I am willing to change my own methods to make that happen. Thus, my tutoring style depends almost entirely on the student as I have found that the most common reason a tutor is needed is that the student's learning style does not match with the teacher's teaching style. I can tutor through examples, visually drawing concepts, talking, describing the reasons behind a concept, and most importantly, I can relate almost every subject to daily life.

As a student at the University of Detroit Mercy, I worked as a tutor for two years. I helped other students struggling in mathematics and biology classes. Also, my senior year in college I worked as a Teaching Assistant for a Microbiolgy lab. In addition, I did student teaching for a Catholic Middle School. Many people have different teaching skills and techniques. I do not believe any technique to educate a child is better than any other technique. Each child learns differently. Understanding the fact that children learn differently is crucial. The teacher must be able to adapt to the child's learning style. I believe I have the ability to use an array of teaching styles to help children. I would enjoy the opportunity to help children learn.

In addition, I have learned grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last ten years I have tutored students in English, psychology, the arts, and the social sciences. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children have the ability to obtain and retain knowledge. I am available to help your child find his/her own academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate, yet disciplined, firm, structured.

I have a BS in Criminal Justice. I love learing and research. I have always had a hard time learning. I think this is why I love to teach others. I have a few years of teaching cheer for 4th-8th grade & I teach adults in the workplace. I understand every age and person learns different. I find it a challenge in each person to figure that learning style & make sure we are successful in whatever subject I am teaching. I teach a program called train the trainer. So I train others how to teach. I feel if I have the material I can help anyone in a basic level course. I can help someone with basic reading or a book report or research. I have learned people learn different ways. They learn by hearing or seeing and sometimes both. I like to talk and as write materials down and have pass outs. I feel this is the best method.Tutors help other students with their course work. Tutors do
