I am in my third year as an English teacher at a Tulsa charter school. I currently teach 6th Grade Language Arts and high school College Prep English and Reading.

If you give me the opportunity to tutor your child, I promise that you'll receive effort, attention and experience that you will not find from most other tutors.

I attended a preparatory school in Junior High and High School. I then went on to Mississippi College where I obtained a Bachelor degree in Home Economics with an emphysis on Fashion Merchandising. When I became a mom, I decided to home school my kids so that I could take an active part in their education and I could guide them in ways that someone else might not find interesting or important. I love to learn and everyone learns differently. I believe that if the information is not being understood one way, then we need to find another way to instruct. Hands-on learning and learning through experience always leaves a lasting impression. Just memorizing facts, although in some cases that is necessary, it is just not fun for all students and just may not stick unless learned in a fun way. I want to make learning fun because no one should ever stop learning. There is just too much out

In 2006, I earned my bachelors degree in Elementary Education K- 8th grades. My cognate was concentrated in the Socials Studies areas. I have a great love of history and always traveling to learn more about interesting parts of the country. After graduation, I taught Commercial Science grades 6th thru 8th in a middle school. I have taught computers for the past two years in the same school. I have also substituted in all grades and all subjects. I feel that all students learn differently and for that my teaching styles vary. I am a visual person so; I that all children can learn when shown examples of what I am trying to teach them. I am very hands-on as a teacher and I want your child to be involved in their learning. Above all, I love children and I feel that all children can learn if just given a chance.

I am a teacher who takes pride in making learning fun. I love to relate school curriculum to real-life. I also feel that many students enjoy being hands-on with experiments,plants, etc. Making these things relavent for students, helps in making those connections needed to retain information and have a great time doing so! With that said, I also understand that everyone learns differently and with my background in education I can assure that I will be able to adapt to your students needs. I graduated from Northeastern State University in 2008 with a bachelors degree in Elementary Education. I have been teaching for a year at a public school. I have also tutored students in math and reading during a college course,and here at my current job as well. During college I took many science classes that were required for the Nursing program (which was my first major). I have taken the f

I prefer one-on-one conversation in a question-and-answer format (Socratic method). However, sometimes a straightforward explanation is needed. For math tutoring, the best results come from working through problems step-by-step. I have been teaching at the college level for 6 years, and I have 2 years of earlier experience at the middle school level as well. My BS in Electrical Engineering enables me to tutor effectively in math and science, and my PhD in Philosophy qualifies me for Science, History, and some writing help (I have published in peer-reviewed journals). I have often tutored privately for friends and family, and they tell me I do a very good job.

My undergraduate is in elementary and early childhood education where I have served in public and private schools in PA, VA, FLA. The life and qualities of a teacher are characterized by a leadership mentality.

I am always ready with a plan, and complimentary of my students for a job well done.

Due to my changing Majors as a junior, I received a Bachelors Degree with a double major, Biology and Education. My Minor was in English. I was pleasantly surprised when my Certificate in Oklahoma qualified me to teach seventeen fields. I have had the privilege of teaching nearly every discipline at the grade levels of seventh thru twelfth. In addition the District selected me to train to work with at risk students. One of my many assignments was in school suspension that required tutoring those students in the completion of their studies. I enjoy working with students of all levels. I have a patient easy going nature and feel the only dumb question is the one not asked. My goals are to enable the student to not only master the subject matter but to incorporate that knowledge and be able to relate it to other disciplines. I always taught a section in the classroom on how to study effecti

While in an administrative position at Bethel College I earned both my Bachelor degree and my Masters in Education, both focusing on Administration. Both those degrees further helped in my teaching style when I was called upon to teach Freshman Orientation, Social Dance, and become the Director of a summer youth program for two years that involved daily lessons. Further, my life allowed me the oppotunity to go overseas as a English as a Second Language teacher in Taichung,Taiwan for a period of 3 years, teaching first grade through high schoolers. I taught Reading skills, understanding Literature (to include comprehension), Writing Skills, American Social Studies, Life Skills and Art. My teaching style is one generally "getting on the students level." I explain things in both word and action helping the student to understand more clearly. I have been able to achieve great results from

I like to emphasize the personal nature of teacher-student interactions. I guide and direct students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives, and encouraging them to develop criteria to make informed choices. My overall goal is to develop in students the capacity for independent action, initiative, and responsibility. I work with students on projects almost in a consultative fashion and I provide as much support and encouragement as possible. The personal flexibility, and the focus on students' needs and goals are of my utmost importance. I have a Bachelors & a Masters of Science in Biology. Most of my experience is in academic research from both Canterbury University and The University of Oklahoma. I consider myself well traveled thanks to the Air Force... I have several certificates that include EMT, CNA, CH-HA, CPR, Flight Medic, R&D... Now to be specific my kn

I love teaching children of all ages. If children needed extra help we would stay and have small group tutorials after school two or three days a week. Children learn in many different ways. To find a child's interest and build on it can make all the difference in the world. Keeping children's attention and focused on what they are learning is the key to success! I am a firm believer that "All Children Can Learn". Children learn by listening and watching the teacher provide instruction, then actively doing hands-on projects. I am a patient, understanding and very positive person. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I love making a difference in my students'lives. I started off being an elementary aide/tutor in 1988 in public schools. I loved working with children so I decided to go back to college to become a teacher. I attended several colleges in different cities (where

Based on the Multiple Intelligences theory developed by Howard Gardner, I believe that my teaching philosophy resumes in simplicity and effectiveness- keeping in mind that every student has an individual talent. I think that effective teaching requires high level of student involvement in “hands on” experiences. My role as an instructor is to facilitate learning and making learn a fun experience. As a Foreign Language teacher, I design my Spanish lessons covering the five C’s established by the National Standards, giving emphasis to grammar in the language curriculum and making connections with other subjects and cultures. Basically, my syllabus consists in stressing communication skills in Spanish. I am a Spanish certified teacher in Oklahoma. I received a Bachelor of Law degree from the Universidade Federal da Bahia, in Bahia, Brazil. I completed my Masters in Spanish at the Univer
