Government Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Plainfield, IN

I have worked at Pike High School for several years as a substitute teacher. I spend a lot of time helping out in a study hall, so I have experience helping students in a wide variety of subjects as well as simply improving study and work habits. I spent a semester teaching English as a New Language, so I also have experience working with non-native English speakers (I am proficient in Spanish).

My style is easy to get along with. I am friendly with my students but am able to keep the boundaries of the teacher student relationship in play at all times. I do not believe in giving students answers but rather leading them towards a natural discovery of the answers on their own. I have been teaching in different areas and capacities for three years now. I started by teaching English to Korean students in Daegu, South Korea. Here I taught all different skill levels and ages. When I returned to the United States I began working at Sylvan Learning Center. I was responsible for running the center. Here I was trained in many of the Sylvan Learning methodologies and feel very comfortable in identifying obstacles that hinder a students progression. At which time I incorporate learning strategies that help them get over the "hump"

I'm a graduated student from Purdue University with a BS in Speech Pathology and Audiology (SLHS). Between my time in both high school and college, my GPA never dropped below a 3.0. Both settings of education included years of math and science, and in high school four years of writing, English, and history. Volunteer work has been essential since high school, helping teachers, the elderly, disabled, and churches. I also have leadership skills as an assistant editor to a high school magazine as well as an officer for a leadership group for minority and international students.

I sincerely enjoy teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe that all children have the ability and want to learn, but each are unique and it takes getting to know the child and what strategies will engage them and work best. I love to see people succeed and am willing to go to any measure to help children achieve success education-wise and in life. It is important for children to have positive role models and be comfortable with the person teaching them in order to make progress. I can relate very well to children and will be able to get them to learn in the best way for them as an individual. I look forward to helping, advancing, and making a difference in all of my students' lives. As a Ball State University MBA student, I am very driven to achieve a high level of success in all areas of life, especially education. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting and i

Students learn better when they see the relevance of the material they are studying to their own lives. In many subject areas this relevance is not obvious, and students may tune out as a result. I always use concrete examples that students can relate to when explaining a concept. For example, when discussing paternalism with college students I will often cite government regulation of tobacco and alcohol use to illustrate how the concept translates into laws that directly affect them. I am easy going and use humor to put my students at ease and hold their interest. I have four years experience as an Associate Instructor of Political Science and Political Philosophy at the college level. In this capacity I frequently tutored students individually, helping them to grasp complicated concepts. Many students struggled more with the basics of term paper writing than the material itself.

As a college graduate from a private, liberal arts institution, I was very much driven to achieve high levels of excellence in many areas of the world of education. I have earned a Bachelors degree in finance, which has enabled me to have a great understanding of many areas of math and business. By taking a diverse course schedule in many areas, including a focus on grammatical, historical, psychological and ethical areas has led me to develop a vast array of knowledge. Along with tutoring, I have coached youth sports in the area for the past five years. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe that all children can learn, but each in their own unique way. My life has been based on a respect for people of all ages and abilities. Based on this, I believe that teacher and student in any situation can stand to respect and learn from each other in different ways. I believe i

I worked at LearningRX as a cognitive skills trainer where I worked with students who were having difficulty in school and I was able to find their areas of difficulty and help build those areas up while also helping with their memory, visual acuity, and processing speed. I like to have a relationship with the students I tutored where they feel comfortable with me; I want them to be able to tell me the problems they're having with the work and what I can do to help. I like to be friendly with them while still being an authority figure where they want to do their best. I think this type of relationship allows me to push the students to their maximum limit without discouraging them when we're having a difficult session.

While I enjoy working with a younger population, I have had more experience with middle school, high school, and college students. I am very patient and easy-going, but I also expect that my students perform the tasks asked of them in the time given, as to further reach our goals. I have a descriptive way of teaching, but I am also a firm believer in using abstract methods in order to obtain and understanding. Visual aids can also be very helpful, such as using pictures, every-day items, or a chemistry model set. As a graduate of a 'Public Ivy' institution, I have had a very well-rounded and intensive education. I earned two degrees from IU: a BA in Spanish and a BS in Biology and Chemistry. My experience involves subjects such as: Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Chemistry (General and Organic), Analytical Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Physics. I have had many student

My style is relaxed, but focused, with a touch of humor to ease nerves. The first step is creating comfort and trust between the student and the tutor. To do this, when coaching Chemistry, I would have the student present a problem. Then, I'd say, well, let's figure this out together. And, truly, that is what we would do, step by step, by asking questions. What do we know? What do we need to figure out? Essentially showing them the thought process out loud, and involving them in obtaining the solution. This approach helps develop confidence. Repeating creates familiarity. Eventually, most students become confident enough to try one on their own, and my role becomes encourager, light-hearted and sincere. As an engineer and manager, training employees was an integral component of work performed throughout my ten-year professional career. I created systems and procedures, followe

I enjoy teaching and working with individuals of all ages. I think that everyone can learn in their own way. I am patient and easy-going, but willing to work hard to get the job done. I believe in allowing students to find the way in which they learn best. I think that everyone can find success given the appropriate environment and encouragement. I strive to give each student that opportunity. As an undergraduate student, I strived to achieve academic excellence in a variety of subjects. I earned a bachelor’s degree with a major in History and a minor in French. Additionally, I studied required medical school prerequisites. Thus, I have experience in a variety of mathematics and science courses, including biology, general and organic chemistry, physics, calculus, and statistics. I have experience tutoring students in various math, science, and language courses.

I have been teaching for twenty-nine years in subjects of English, Literature, Art History, Drawing, World Civilization, and the Humanities. I have earned three degrees, a BA in Social Sciences/English, a MH in Humanities, and a PhD in Fine Arts, which have enabled me to teach a variety of areas. Throughout my teaching career I have taught research, essays, and grammar skills. For the past year, I have tutored students in English and Social Studies in the AVID Tutoring Program at Indianapolis Public Schools. Teaching is a calling which I have loved all my life for which a variety of techniques and strategies are required as each child learns differently. Adaptability, love of learning and children, organization, patience, knowledge, and consideration are all necessary qualities to be a good professor, teacher, or tutor.
