make it make sense.

visual and hands on. this is the way I learn best so its the way that makes sense to teach
I have experience tutoring math over the last 4 years. I have been in the high level math classes throughout my entire life. I am a very thorough when i teach and make sure the student understands the material before moving on. I am extremely patient and make sure I move at a speed that the student understands. I have never tutored in other subjects but am comfortable with doing so.

A Little Bit About Me...

With my years of being around and in an educational environment, I have picked up patterns of repetition and summary to reinforce ideas being conveyed. I, myself, learn best by doing. Through studying adult learning styles, I discovered that studies show utilizing all facets of learning - writing, audio, visual, and hands on - leads to the highest levels of retention. I teach by 1) talking by the student to determine his or her best learning style and 2) utilizing the various methods listed above so that the student can retain the maximum amount of information through his or her best learning style.
If someone would pay me to be a student, I could continue going to school for my whole life. I love to learn and come from a family of teachers. My award for service learning integrated information from the fields of Education and Sociology to improve learning opportunities for abused c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a life-long student, I aspire to a life of teaching. While an undergraduate at St. Olaf College, I developed strong communication and interpersonal skills as a writing center tutor and ESL mentor. After graduating magna cum laude in 2005, I became a volunteer educator in Chicago and taught elementary and middle school math, reading, art and social studies. Today, as a graduate student and composition instructor at the University of Montana, I relish the opportunity to pursue literature and develop my classroom teaching expertise. Working with undergraduates straight out of high-school and non-traditional students with families or second careers, I encourage students to distinguish their writing voices and explore rhetorical choices by inventing and revising writing projects. I emphasize teaching literature as dialogue because I strongly believe that an individual’s self perception and ... read more

My teaching is guided by passion and the need to both inform and transform. My teaching is created and refined with both the need to learn and the need to cultivate. I believe in standing out, not being another teacher. I’m personable and honest in class, initially offering my personal stories and opinions only to inspire others to do the same. But, more often than not, I play devil’s advocate, allowing opposing sides, voices, and ideals equal time for expression and consideration. I think my seeming indifference keeps the class peaceful, civil, and, it also forces each student to evaluate her own thoughts and ideals critically, to represent them honestly. I’ve always demanded students “own” their ideas and practice sound and thoughtful reasoning to do so. I encourage students speak with me when experiencing difficulty. I listen, consider, and frequently work out alternative sol ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy helping others and have often volunteered my proofreading and editing skills to my friends, family, and classmates. While in college, I took numerous creative writing classes that utilized workshop and group editing techniques. As a result, I have learned how to give constructive criticism and how to help others improve their writing without compromising their own unique style and voice. As a writer myself, I understand literary theory and technique, as well as the importance (and many facets) of authorship, which I try to pass along to my students through excercises and activities.
I have a Bachelor's degree in English Writing from the University of Nevada, Reno, and am currently in the process of applying to graduate school for Creative Writing. During the past year, I have tutored part-time as a writing tutor through the in-home tutoring company Study Buddies. R ... read more
