My comments on tutoring Psychology : I am skilled in this area and can teach vocabulary, concepts and applications.

I believe in humor, fun, clear organization, and associated evaluation. I believe in preparing the student for life-long learning because learning is a pleasure, not a chore.
An experienced teacher K-12, teaching reading, vocabulary, grammar, study skills, comprehension, math and science at one of St.Louis' local districts who moved on to teach at St. Louis Community College yet remains devoted to personal learning and learning projects. One of those recent learning project was incorporation of technology and personal computers in the classroom.

I am a listener first and foremost. I want to know what my students expect from me and in what areas s/he regard as most essential to her/his success. I believe all people can learn and understand. It is a pleasure to watch students grow in skill and comprehension and move toward confidence.
I love teaching. I earned my BA before I was old enough to vote. While my classmates were in his/her senior year, I was teaching. Eventually I earned my M.Ed. in Reading, then started School Administration and Adult Education. In all these fields I find similar necessary skills: patience, co-operation among staff and colleagues, knowledge of subject matter, communication with the community and parents and a well defined curriculum. Moreover, I am a published author and a former writer with St. Louis Globe Democrat - Suburban Journals. As a favor to my students, I often evaluate papers for subm ... read more

I am a very patient teacher who treats students with respect. It is my goal to reach all learners and meet their needs from all ability levels and cultural backgrounds. I involve students in the learning process by giving them choices and input in project development, technology integration and enrichment/acceleration.

A Little Bit About Me...

My first teaching experience was as a high school senior where I was given the opportunity to teach a small group of 5th graders as part of the Missouri A+ program. We began with division, quickly moving into linear and nonlinear algebra, before touching on the fundamentals of complex numbers, graph theory and trigonometry, before concluding with a derivation of the quadratic formula and its applications. I spent three semesters as the academic chair for my fraternity enforcing study hours for fraternity brothers with lower GPA’s; tutoring students in algebra, calculus, physics, and computer science, among other fields. I have also had five years of experience in Latin up to the college level with one year of Japanese.
I believe that every student can meet his or her potential provided that the subject matter is presented in a way that makes sense to them and that any material c ... read more

I have always wanted to teach Math and Science. I have volunteered tutored on and off for five years for friends and family. I have a BS in Chemistry and have worked as a Chemist for 13 years. I currently am working as an accountant. I enjoy formulas and showing my students how everything comes togeher. Most people find Math frustrating and I enjoy showing them a different way to approach problems. I have tutored elementary students in all subjects, high school students in all subjects, and college students in algebra, calculus, physics, chemistry, biochemistry, computer science, and biology.
I really enjoy tutoring. I love watching the students gain confidence as we work through the problems. I believe my attitude and approach to teaching helps the students. I provide enough understanding to the students but still challenge them. The worst thing you can do, is just give ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a supplemental Instructor/tutor at UMSL Department of Biology, I facilitate the learning process by explaining concepts and encouraging open communication with students. In addition, I conduct weekly review sessions to integrate how-to-learn with what-to-learn. I grade exams and laboratory reports.
Since students learn in many ways—by seeing and hearing; reflecting and acting; reasoning logically and intuitively; memorizing and visualizing,I provide various guidelines for how I want tasks completed in this course based upon student pool. Students might describe me as a knowledgeable coach who dispenses the fact, principles, and concepts they need and works closely with someone to correct problems in how they think and behave. I give students a lot of personal support and encouragement to do well in their course.

Throughout my school experience, I have been a top performer. I attended a "gifted" program in elementary school. I was the Valedictorian at Hagerstown Junior/Senior High School in Hagerstown, Indiana. I received a full-tuition scholarship to the University of Evansville in Evansville, Indiana. There, I majored in Economics and was a tutor for Micro- and Macroeconomics students my junior and senior years. My economics degree gave me a broad understanding of mathematics (I took Statistics and Calculus I-III), but also gave me experience in technical writing. Beyond this, I also have gained excellent English skills through my newspaper experiences in high school, college and during a summer internship. Lastly, I obtained a minor in French and am a proficient reader/writer/speaker. In addition to my college experiences, I also currently volunteer with Junior Achievement. For two se ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an ambitious doctoral candidate and highly motivated life-long learner, I am currently focused on academia and all that it entails. For example, I have earned a bachelor degree in psychology and a certificate in trauma studies. In addition, I have earned a master's degree in adult and higher education and am thoroughly enjoying my dissertation work/research in earning my doctoral degree. Additionally, I have three certificates in writing (Writing, Technical, and Creative), a certificate in institutional research, and a certificate in university teaching.
My philosophical foundation of teaching reflects on my own learning experiences during my undergraduate and graduate coursework. During much of those higher learning opportunities, my professors utilized a very respectful perspective towards all students, and this background of having role models has instilled in me the importan ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Working at the Nashville Transition Center, essentially a half-way house for children aged 12-18 with criminal and/or troubled backgrounds, my senior year of college changed my outlook on tutoring tremendously because it opened my eyes to the challenges many face. Having been born with Muscular Dystrophy, I'm certainly no stranger to challenges, however I had never seen individuals who were never really given a fair shot to succeed in my eyes. Once I realized that I could be the one to help these children reach their goals, it immediately changed my perception. I've always been very easy-going and empathetic and I feel that these are my two greatest strengths as a tutor. Using these strengths along with my sense of humor I attempt to form a connection with my students. It’s only through a genuine connection between student and tutor that one can get students to believe in themselves ... read more

I believe that one of the most important aspects of a successful teaching relationship is understanding both the student's personal learning style and what motivates him or her. I care deeply about the success of the students I work with and am able to adapt my teaching techniques to meet each student's personal needs. I strive to not only give my students greater knowledge, but greater confidence as well. I do that with the hope that our sessions not only help them to develop in our areas of interest, but also help them to become more successful students overall.

My own style I show a sincere interest in each student, I listen to their needs, aspirations, I tell them what I can do to assist them and I motivate the student to succeed at their own level of competency. My degree in psychology and sociology has been quite helpful through the years.
I am a successful business woman who has taught for the last 15 years. What makes me successful as a teacher or tudor lies in the fact that I bring concrete proof to the student on what they need to learn. I motivate them to getting through on this study. Although students don't typically like math and accounting I tell them this is a means to an end. So to the parents, I choose to teach and tutor, this means I love motivating the student at all ages.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a very unique way of teaching. My key to success works on a system of discipline and rewards. I find creative ways to make the most mundane tasks fun to accomplish. I think the number on rule in teaching strategy should be finding a way to make the process enjoyable. I believe most kids that do poorly in school have an incredibly hard time putting their hearts into tutoring. In my professional experience, it is almost like pouring salt on the wound when they don't do well in school and then have to suffer through more torture after school.

While I was attending college I served as a Certified Trainer at Outback Steakhouse for several years. I taught our classroom for trainees, and I also developed and trained key employees. In addition, I volunteered at the International Institute and have helped newly arrived immigrants American customs and basic English syntax and grammar. Soon thereafter I earned two BA degrees, one in French and the other in Political Science. Currently, I aid in the rehabilitation of socially disadvantaged children by maintaining a therapeutic environment, and teaching everyday social skills.
I sincerely have a passion for helping others. I enjoy learning and growing together. Also, I believe that one has the potential to learn from anyone, young or old; it is merely an open mind that is vital. Also, I feel that sharing ideas and concepts in an open forum is conducive to healthy learning. ... read more
