More About This Tutor...

I like using many different ways to learn. We are all different in how we learn and taking different approaches helps to take that into account. I like learning to be fun as you learn more when you are having fun.
I started piano as a young child for over ten years. I perfomed in several piano Guild judgings and came out well each time. I also taught piano for several years and put together many piano recitals for my students. I love playing all kinds of music. Jazz and blues are one of my favorites, but I love classical. Each type of music has a different touch and it is a challenge to learn each type of music. I love playing and enjoy helping others master this skill.

College Student - Eager to Gain Experience!

I have an incredible passion for teaching. I am currently in the process of getting my Bachelors in Secondary Education with a focus in English. I have knowledge of the structure and content of the English language and thoroughly enjoy teaching others composition, spelling, creative writing, reading, vocabulary, etc. I do not have much experience yet in a classroom setting but have volunteered at a middle school while getting my Associates degree. I helped a teacher at a middle school to teach students that were having difficulty in various subjects.
I am a hands on teacher, probably because I am a hands on learner. I find it difficult to learn when an instructor is solely lecturing. I believe that constant practice and hands on lessons are the most effective ways of learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach is to assess the needs of the individual. What are the learning goals? To pass a class, excel at certain content, or improve grades? This is important to understand so that we are both moving toward an identical objective and can travel together to that end. I am able to design a learning strategy for all content but particularly am knowledgeable in all social sciences and comprehension areas.
I am an educator by training, experience, and passionate interest. My Ph.D. in Instructional Technology has enabled me to assist all students with their learning challenges by devising specific and customized strategies that help each individual master content. I have been in adult learning positions in both corporate and higher education environments and would like to teach people of all ages how to learn what they need to know. I have worked with groups, online educatio ... read more

Growing up with four younger sisters, I have learned the valuable skills of patience and understanding. I approaching teaching and tutoring as a collaborative effort in which I treat each student with dignity and respect. I find treating students as equals while still providing the material in an engaging manner allows the students to grow and find their own voice which has proven to further and better cement the material in the student’s mind.
I have spent much of my time as an undergraduate mentoring underclassmen at ASU, not just to better understand their economics and political science classes, but also how to be a better, well-rounded students. As a Russian linguist I am qualified in a number of English linguistics subjects as well. Continuing that theme, I tutored my peers at law school in property, administrative and contracts law.

More About This Tutor...

My philosophy of education is based on the belief that we are all born natural, enthusiastic learners and, if appearances are to the contrary, there is a reason. I believe the effective teacher must determine the student’s learning style and tailor lessons to the individual’s strongest learning channel, their interests, passions, creative imagination and motivations. I have found as an educator, each “aha!” moment with a student, every sign that a new connection has been made or a deeper understanding has been realized, has brought renewed commitment, on my part, to the vocation of teaching.
I graduated from the UNH with a B.A. (summa cum laude) in Psychology in 1982. I attended Antioch/NE, graduating in 1985 with an M.A. in Counseling Psychology. I began a private practice and started teaching at the University of New Hampshire and at community colleges in the area and later at Em ... read more

I have 22 years of tutoring experience, from both my own business, Mr. Tutor, and freelance work. I have tutored both academic subjects such as Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies.

A Little Bit About Me...

In high school I was able to tutor students in all subjects ranging from English to Math to Musical Studies. Furthering my education at Trinity University in San Antonio, TX really opened my eyes and mind to wider ranges of educational foundations. As a double major in Communication and Classical Studies, I was able to get a well rounded education in all subjects. I feel that I am also skilled in math and got a minor in Art History. I have always enjoyed tutoring students and seeing them "get" the subjects we are touching on.
I have always enjoyed tutoring students and seeing them "get" the subjects we are touching on. The look on their face during this moment is priceless.

As a veteran teacher, I have had a myriad of experiences teaching students on many different levels and subjects. As is evident, I have always been driven educationally and spent many years teaching advanced math and science to college bound high school students. Even though currently I am teaching Special Education, I am still very much excited to be involved in the math processes. I have privately tutured students in Chemistry, Physics, Geometry, Algebra and Trig.
As I am excited to teach and as I love children, my teaching style leans towards the very caring, compassionate and loving side. I enjoy when a student begins to understand something and revel in their success! My goal is always to be their advocate, to meet them on their level and to provide the most comprehensive teaching possible.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of F.A.U, I was very much driven to learn programming and prograaming languages, applying Mathematics and Algorithms to real time problems. During my 30 years as a consultant I taught several classes related to game theory and applied Calculus. I am current a member of Toastmasters international and enjoy public speaking as well as instructing and mentoring other club members. I've lived in Prescott since 1994 and enjoy any opportunity to help and serve the community.
I like instructing using the latest visual tools. I like to make math alive, taking the abstractness of calculus and transforming it into something that is visual. I enjoy working with gifted middle school or high school age students.

More About This Tutor...

As an English major and writer/editor with 15 years of experience, I have honed my grammatical, language and communication skills through the written word and verbal expression. With volunteer work at women's shelter's, I read to and helped elementary-age kids learn to read during my time spent with them.
I love being with and teaching children, especially when it comes to reading and books. I find it highly gratifying to see the joy that comes with learning to love to read and the subsequent doors of learning that open as a result. Though kids have different learning styles, I believe that books and the ability to read are a universal passion that transcends all backgrounds and abilities. I strive to make a difference with students that, by teaching them to read (and write?) well, it can open up brand-new worlds for them.

I certainly strive for having my students to understand the concept of the subject, rather than memorizing every step of a given process. Understanding the basics will give you the tools to solve or analyze a problem for a possible solution and that will lead you to more successful results.
I had the opportunity of tutoring college algebra and basics of statistics during 2003 and 2004 while pursuing my Master of Business Administration degree at Bellevue University in Bellevue, Nebraska. Also had the opportunity of being teacher assistant for geometry during my Junior year while taking my bachelor degree. Currently I manage a retail store for a Fortune 100 company and I just finished a concentration on Finances to add to my MBA degree.

My education background began in 1990. That year I earned my AA in education from Scottsdale Community College in the area of education.

As a former paraprofessional with a Master's Degree in Social Work I have worked with kids in the past behaviorally and academically. I have a solid grasp of English, Grammar, Social Studies, and Mathematics.
I enjoy working with children of all ages. I feel my career in social work has allowed me to become more centered on compassion as a means of education, and engaging the child in the learning process while being compassionate. Children typically learn best when in a positive, comfortable situation. I would like them to feel comfortable enough to feel like they can be their best around me.
