My comments on tutoring Continuing Education : Have taught many workshops for adult students, and have been a returning student myself. Can help with both the process of going into the education process again, as well as with organizing adult education courses.

I am extremely patient and clear. In my mind, there is no such thing as someone who cannot learn; it is my job to adjust my teaching style for multiple learning styles. Because I also have experience working with special needs clients as well as clients in rehabilitation, I am especially capable of dealing with more challenging learning situations. I am also take a rather lighthearted approach, and try to make the process as fun, yet as precise as possible, with markers for different points in the learning process. Most have really enjoyed my teaching approach as well.
Have been tutoring for twenty years, and have also taught on a college level for ten. I have taught in a variety of contexts, such as one-on-one, kid's day camp, online and ongoing workshops. I once ran my own company with a specialty in tutoring diversity software students. I have an extremely high success rate, wit ... read more

An enthusiastic tutor with a PhD in chemistry!

I have found through my 6 years of teaching students, that flexibility is a key component. Explaining a difficult concept to a student should be customized to each individual students' needs. I encourage students to always ask questions even if they think they are stupid. Everyone has to ask those questions at some point in their career! One of the most important goals of my teaching is to help the student grasp the concept of the subject, to help them apply that knowledge throughout their course. I often find that students blankly learn concepts without truly understanding them and as a result struggle to apply them later. I love to teach, and genuinely want to use my knowledge to help others. I am a logical, thoughtful person, who is happy to explain the same concept to students as many times as necessary. I know this subject can be difficult for some, so please contact me and I ca ... read more

As the result of three college degrees (BS, MBA, and EdD) plus 20 years as a college professor and researcher/analyst, I possess extentive experience teaching and using statistics, algebra, business math, research skills, report writing, and a variety of business disciplines. A 30 year passion for history has resulted in an encyclopedic knowledge of American and world history. Although I do not possess a credential in history, I have been told that what I know and the manner in which I present it makes it fascinating for the listener. I am not the boring, egg-head type, just a regular guy who will probably show up in blue jeans, who is enthusiastic, and who will set you/your student at ease right away.
I do indeed love to teach. My approach is relaxed, well-prepared, encouraging, and humorous when appropriate. I prefer interactive communications. My passion for the subject matter ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Effective, long-term educational results occur best in a teaching environment that includes energy, enjoyment, and enthusiasm (i.e., the joy of learning!). With that motivation, I believe that building a strong foundation in every subject area is the key to students' learning and retention. Teaching the "Hows" and "Whys"---not just the "Whats" (the answers)--is imperative as is critical thinking and organizational development! Also, relevant, meaningful applications of learned material are essential and encouraged. Being a results-oriented, caring tutor and mentor is always my ultimate goal---with smiles all around! Teaching competence while developing confidence is the key to effective learning!

I have always been a believer in giving students a foundation from which to learn and grow. I enjoy teaching students basic skills that can be applied to many different subject areas. For example, I think things like test-taking skills, communication skills, and problem-solving skills are all things that can transfer between subject areas and even outside of the classroom. I think it is also empowering for students to help one another. The best way to learn something is to teach it. This not only builds confidence, but it helps students retain information.
I have experience as both a teacher and a tutor. I graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in English/Secondary Education. Throughout my years in college I learned theories of education, observed in classrooms and student taught at both the middle school and high school level. After graduating college in 20 ... read more

As a lifelong learner I have a unique perspective on how difficulties inside and outside of school can effect learning. I earned by B.S. in Business when I was 31 years old and I am now in the process of earning my Masters Degree. During this time I have aquired the skills needed to become succesful in learning and I am eager to share these skills with others. My ultimate goal is to instruct college classes to help others make thier stars shine.
My teaching style reflects my personality and that is comfortable and confident. Peoples' minds are most open to learning when they are comfortable with their situation, surroundings, and the people they are interacting with. Being confident in yourself will lead to confidence in your students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I utilize several different teaching strategies and attempt to pull strengths from the youth and work with positives. I give examples and direct youth in the direction of the correct answers. I utilize reading and instructing out loud to the class, writing on the board for further and clearer instructions and information, using real life ideas and situations to help explain the lesson (ex. of using microwave and cooking to help explain temperature and gave reminders at the end of class for work completion, assignments and expectations. I am firm with some basic expectations and allow for some freedoms that seem to benefit the flow of the class and avoid power struggles and the potential for additional problems.
For the last 3 years I have been working as a special education teacher at a non-proft treatment facility. I enjoy working with children. I conduct myself in a very positiv ... read more

I received my education K through high school in Finland, and continued with university- and graduate-level studies in Sweden. The emphasis was on life sciences with molecular neurobiology as the deepening theme. During this time, I tutored students in high school and college math. I also regularly thought medical students their biochemical laboratory courses. Post doctoral studies shifted my interest toward adult stem cell biology and gene regulation, and how body's own adult stem cells may help in healing process of central nervous system trauma. During the past 5 years, I have been active in my children's education and homework, and volunteered at their elementary school's reading program.
I feel very fortunate having had the opportunity to educate myself without any regard on obstacles that so many other children may face. Therefore I also feel obligated to share my knowledge ... read more

As a current middle school teacher and former high school teacher, I have discovered several teaching techniques to attain the highest level of success in the middle school and high school classrooms.

Over the past decade I have tutored, taught, and observed several subjects including math, science, language arts, and social studies.

I have worked as an accounting and payroll support person for 12 years. I truly enjoyed teaching people about their programs and helping them “see the light” sort of speak. I also feel I am an encourager by nature as I love people of all ages. I have a good background in accounting as I’ve also worked quite a few years in the accounting department of a publishing company. I am currently the accountant for a small business and am developing my own bookkeeping/accounting company. I'm a recent graduate of Everest College Online.
I am a patient person – not many things bother me. I like to find the best learning style for each individual person I tutor. I also believe that all people (whatever their age) have value and the potential to learn if they are the least bit curious. I strive to be the person that people respect and also never forgets. I also like to have fun with my stude ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Four years tutoring at the undergraduate college level when I was an undergraduate student myself. This includes calculus 1&2&3 and college algebra. Also physics, chemistry and biology. I perused a double major of pre medicine and electrical engineering at the undergraduate level. I needed some extra money and found a lot of satisfaction in helping others and I found myself to be good at it and still tutor co-workers today. In addition I have done tutoring as a working professional for new college hires and junior staff for about 30 years.
In my opinion every student learns in a different way giving his or her own approach to developing an understanding of new unfamiliar knowledge. Also these same students shift their methods depending upon the material being introduced and discussed. It is for this reason that I seek to first try to carefully understand the students learning st ... read more
