Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Phoenix, AZ

I have experience in and outside of the classroom in all of the fields I listed. From a 4.0 G.P.A to sales office growth I have learned a lot and am eager to share my experience in order to help others. English is and will always be my favorite subject. I have done speech writing and presenting to essay competitions. God blessed me with a way with words and I have used it to excel in many areas of my life. My teaching style all depends on the subject and the student. Everyone learns differently. Unfortunately, the public school system seems to disagree with that. I begin by assessing the type of learner you are and from there I pick my teaching style.

I am currently enrolled at Northern Arizona University. I have completed three years of undergraduate study in history secondary education, have spent seventy hours working and assisting in classrooms, and earned a minor in Spanish. In summary, I am a history buff who happens to be fluent in Spanish. My teaching style is Socratic. Inquiry and discussion are my primary tools. I also teach history as an argument about the past for the students to develop rather than a set of facts and dates to be memorized. I try to teach without assigning homework.

I love children and enjoy seeing their faces light up when something "clicks". I believe in being both consistent and flexible because all children want to know that your are going to be there for them and no child learns the same way.

Besides family, faith, and good health, there is nothing I value more than my education. As a graduate of the University of Notre Dame, I have earned a bachelor degree in Science-Business. This new field incorporates the work of a Biology major with the fundamental requirements of a Business major. I am now in the process of applying to dental school, thus have extensive experience with essays and standardized tests. Throughout my academic career I have meticulously planned, prepared, and executed a plan for success. As a life long athlete, I understand the importance of a team. Parents, tutors, and children must work together to succeed. I also realize the importance of strategy; each team has a different method to achieve their goal. Be it verbal, visual, audial, physical, there are multitudes of different ways to have success inside and outside of the classroom. My personal success wo

In fall 1993, I began my teaching experience in the undergraduate education program at Arizona State University. Upon graduation, I sought and obtained a job as a middle-school teacher. After two years, I moved on to the high school level where I taught until January 2010. In my 13 1/2 years as an educator, I taught traditional, gifted, accelerated, Advanced Placement, and dual enrollment courses. My subject knowledge specialties are in rhetoric, composition, poetry, and American literature. Additionally, I have experience in preparing students for Advanced Placement and college entrance exams. I value personal discovery: the journey is as important as the destination. In a teaching or tutoring session, I ask as many questions as I answer. Unlike Socrates, I do not ask questions to lead students to a particular answer. Instead, I ask questions to lead my students to answers I don't alway

I strongly believe every student is capable of learning. My experience in the classroom has taught me to respect every student and hold each one to incredibly high expectations. I am relaxed, patient, and always looking for ways to foster conceptual understanding of the material, rather than rote memorization. I believe inspiring and encouraging students is a teacher's most important job. As a high school chemistry teacher, I am passionate about making science fun and understandable. I am currently pursuing my master's degree in secondary education from Arizona State University. I earned a bachelor's degree in journalism while completing the pre-medicine track at the University of Arizona. My work as a science journalist and my science background make me particularly well-equipped to tutor students in chemistry, biology, and English.

I always try to ask the student what they think they are weak in. Always try to change the teaching method so that the student does not fall in a routine every session. They sometimes decide on doing, for example, in math, inventing their own equation and participating in their own learning. I have been teaching and tutoring students for over 10 years. I teach students up to grade 12. I have been working in Canada as a tutor and worked with dyslexic students as well. I taught math and excelled myself with a high gpa up to grade 12.
