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.

A young professional with a unique combination of teaching experience and technical skills, bringing to the table the high-energy ability to combine technical and scientific instruction at all age levels. My 16 years of experience at Wayne Township, Ben Davis High School science department, has allowed me to vary my interests in our natural world by teaching the following subjects; Biology: Honors Zoology: Environmental Science: Earth and Space Science: and Botany. These classes have encompassed many hands-on experiences such as online course material accessible to all students, the utilization of a laboratory setting with an emphasis on technology and designing a curriculum based on dissection of all phyla in the animal kingdom with an emphasis on anatomy and physiology. Finally many self-made activities involved the investigation of the processes that shape our planet. I am qualified

I graduated from Purdue University with a Civil Engineering degree in 2003. This degree required an extensive amount of Math and Science course work. I am currently employed in the consulting industry. My job requires me to do a lot of Public Education and Outreach- to make Engineering and complicated environmental issues understandable to the general public. I thouroughly enjoy this and love to make learning fun, interesting, and relatable to real world topics. I have experience tutoring for School on Wheels working with k-12 students on a variety of course work. I also tutored my little sister thorughout junior high and high school. She always tells me I was the only teacher that was patient enough to make math and science make sense to her. I never thought twice-I just truly want people to find learning math and science fun and interesting.

I have been tutoring children and adults for about 7 years now in all levels of math and science. I prefer math tutoring but will do science so long as it is a math based science (no biology or physiology please). I love to work with students finding their unique learning style and making math just make sense. I have a degree in Civil Engineering which has allowed me to feel comfortable with just about all levels of math and most levels of science. I am working on my MBA which has allowed me to branch out into being able to assist students with accounting and other business related mathematics.

While I have no "official" teaching experience, I was frequently required to teach other members of the various teams I was on as well as people from other groups. This involved everything from tutorial presentations to a large and diverse group down to individual tutoring at the table in my office. Most people told me I was pretty good at it. I first try to determine what level of knowledge my "students" had. Then, building on that, I would add layers until the group I was with understood the material. I would check with them frequently to make sure they understood what we just covered and I allowed questions at any time. If necessary, I would back up and try a different approach. My goal was to make sure they understood the material, whatever it took.

I have a passion for teaching and working with elementary-aged children. They are at an age where they love to learn new things, and also liked to be praised and recognized for their good work. Because of this I provide a very nurturing atmosphere for children in which they will feel safe and encouraged to do their work. I believe every child learns in a unique way, so I incorporate different learning styles into my lessons and activities. I believe children should learn through discovery, and by doing this they will create intrinsic motivation in order to want to be life long learners. I have many years experience tutoring and teaching elementary-aged students. I have a BA in Elementary Education from Purdue University. I have worked with elementary students of ever grade level, in both the classroom setting and on an individual tutoring basis. I tutor in all subject areas, excluding fo

I have experience tutoring students in various math, science, and language courses. 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 a student at Earlham College, a liberal arts institution, I had the opportunity to participate in a wide range of academic experiences. As an English major, I have acquired extensive grammatical skills as a result of writing numerous essays analyzing various types of prose. My study of Spanish was also quite thorough, and during my four years at Earlham I went from being an intermediate speaker to a fluent one. The courses I took within the Spanish Department were excellent, but the semester I spent abroad in Mexico was just as significant, for it immersed me in the language and culture of the Mexican people in a way I had never before experienced. Since graduating from Earlham, I have had the opportunity to tutor students in Spanish. I love teaching and interacting with children of all ages. I believe that every child is unique, and, as such, every child has a specific learning style

I am currently a substitute teacher in three school corporations in Hamilton/Boone Counties in Indiana. I am beginning my fifth year as a private, in-home tutor for children grades K-8. I have served in Zhitomir Ukraine, working at a camp for children with special needs. I taught in urban schools in the "Reaching for Tomorow" Program, which is a part of Boy Scouts of America. Was Director of Transition to Teaching for a nationally accredited university. Taught Sunday School f0r 30 years. My love for teaching and for the children is contageous! My core values are integrity, compassion, loyalty, commitment and dependability. I take pride in integrating these character qualities into my curriculum. I love the Direct Teaching Method, which speaks directly to a child's Learning Style (visual, tactile, auditory, etc.) I start out a session with an activity to capture the child's attention. The

I would characterize my teaching style as relationally oriented. I want the student to know that I care about him or her. I may not articulate as much, but I want the student to see that I am giving my time to serve their needs and not my own. Loosely speaking, I am also a proponent of multiple intelligences. The creative teacher can usually identify a way to relate material and content using a methodology that connects. My teaching style is based in facts. I philosophically reject radical post-modernity which posits that truth is a moving target. The student does not have the right to tell me that 1+1 = 3 because 1+1 = 2. I believe excellent teaching is rather like music or cooking – part art, part science. You don't get a beautiful wedding cake or a stunning symphony without a good measure of both. I have extensive preparation and training that will allow me to succeed as an E

Through my experiences, I believe I am very capable of tutoring students of all ages in various academic subjects. I find it to be very important to provide guidance and encouragement throughout the learning process. I like to help students work out example problems similar to those they will find in their homework/exams, and give a detailed explanation of how to approach those problems with a high rate of success. I also like to be vocal and friendly with students to make the entire process a bit more laid back and enjoyable! As an undergraduate student, I performed very well in my classes and found that I was able to help many of my peers do well in these same classes. As a result, I decided to begin tutoring students in a challenging statistics course offered on campus. In college, I was a pre-medical and business student, so my range of knowledge is quite broad.

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
