A Little Bit About Me...

After many years in the customer service industry; I returned back to school to acquire my Bachelors Degree in Human Services/Management. Throughout the past 10 years I have been a volunteer with the Child Crisis Center in Mesa, Arizona. My duties there include mentoring, monitoring children ranging from infancy to twelve years of age. Due to my customer service background I have excellent communication skills. My education with The University of Phoenix has left me with a wealth of academic achievements.
Eight years ago my nephew became part of the Arizona juvenile system. Having dealt with all that entails, I made the decision to make a difference in childrens lives. It is my belief that children need positive role models in their life beyond the mother and father. I was lucky to have such role models in my life and would like the opportunity to be one myself. I have ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

An alum of Bradley University, I graduated magna cum laude and as a member of two honor societies. I hold a BA in English, am a Theatre minor, and am currently seeking a teaching license. While student teaching in Illinois, both my observation instructor and teaching adviser frequently complimented me on my creative teaching tactics, overall knowledge of English, and organization and determination. Literature analysis and writing are my specialties. Currently, I am a professional writer and manager for a Speech and Debate website, thus my skills fostered at University have continued to grow post graduation.
I firmly believe that education is the secret to future success. I also feel that everyone has the ability to learn and should be pushed to their personal limits. Trying to make learning as interesting and exciting as possible, by using various techniques, is the best way ... read more

I believe that all students can be successful, it's just a matter of finding the right lever to make education enjoyable and relevant in their own lives.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with both children and adults. As each tutoring situation is unique, I bring a variety of skills and abilities to each person. I believe in utilizing a multi-sensory, multi-modal approach to teaching and tutoring, incorporating all senses into the teaching and learning experience. It is only through diversified and varied instruction that any type of tutoring session is going to be effective in both knowledge acquisition and information retrieval. I strive to have each student reach their highest level and potential, while at the same time, enjoy the learning experience of each individual tutoring session by tapping into their higher order thinking skills.
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. Non-academic su ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As I am a very auditory/visual learner, I tend to to lean towards both auditory and visual techniques. I question the students as to what he or she intended to say in their writing, what is the intent of the paper--will this persuade the reader, inform the reader, compare/contrast ideas-- and see if the writer is in fact accomplishing this goal through effect word choices, sound reasoning, specific examples, and other components of writing. The hope is to edit the document for clarity geared towards the reader of the document and to polish the writing skills of the student.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching since 2005, and doing one-on-one tutoring for just as long. I graduated with a BA in Anthropology, and an MA in Philosophy and Religion. Most of my teaching has been with children ages 10-14, though I have experience with everyone from Kindergarten to College. During my Masters, I wrote my thesis on the Philosophy of Science, and studied Ancient Archaeology in depth during my undergraduate years. I write fiction in my spare time, and have extensive experience with research and term papers. I feel comfortable and competent to teach most basic subjects and levels, though my knowledge of math tapers off after 8th grade.
Through my years of teaching I have worked with a variety of learners with different needs. I have worked with children with Autism, ADHD, gifted children, and children with strong emotional needs. I have had to approach each individual diffe ... read more
