A Little Help Makes All the Difference

All students learn best in various ways. I create lessons for the specific needs of each student.
I am a college graduate of Central Michigan University with a degree in Elementary Education, a major in science and minor in English. I have obtained 22 credits of my masters degree in Teacher Leadership for School Improvement and am 1 course away from my Reading Endorsement. I am also ESOL certified. I am a certified teacher and experienced tutor. I have experience teaching 4th and 5th grades, all subject areas, reading intervention for 2nd and 3rd grade, and reading and math tutoring experience all the way from pre-k through 9th grade. My reading graduate courses have given me great knowledge and understanding about reading difficulties, diagnoses and solutions. My years in the classroom have given me plenty of experience with various ways of teaching math “outside the box.” ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I usually teach by reviewing the lesson that kids don't understand, but I'm open to changing my style according to each type of student!
Hi! I am a sophomore in high school and I love tutoring kids! I've done some tutoring before in my neighborhood, and at my school. They all seem to like my teaching style and all of the students I've tutored have reported better results. I do tutoring mainly because I love helping people and seeing them succeed under my guidance. Please reach out to me if you're interested!

AMERICAN TOEFL TEACHER IN CHENGDU CHINA

I have been living in China for 8 years and have taught every age group from 2 to 60 and every skill level from basic to TOEFL and business English. I enjoy the diversity of students and helping them improve their English abilities. Teaching one on one is the most beneficial as I can really target the students weaknesses and help them excel.
I like to get down to the assigned task and mix the class up with serious teaching and also humor to help break up the lesson.

Writing is one of my top subjects!

I graduated from Spring Arbor University with a BA in English-Writing. Throughout my classes, I have honed the skills of writing and communicating effectively, whether it be creatively or analytically, as well as expanded my knowledge of literature by taking classes such as Shakespeare and 20th Century British Literature. I am a very well-read person who has a leaning toward classic authors such as Bronte, Dumas,and Hemingway. I completed a senior honors thesis, which was 70 pages of analyzing the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and continuing my own creative project, a novel in the making. This honors thesis received the Marsha Daigle-Williamson Award in English in May 2011. To go along with my English degree, I acquired a minor in History while at Spring Arbor University, which led to me tutoring an American History course. Along with this, I have published short storied and poems in smal ... read more

Writing is one of my top subjects!

I have worked in Cedarville University's Writing Center as a tutor for two years. As a tutor, I conducted one-on-one sessions with college-age students to help them improve their writing and critical thinking skills. I also led several workshops on various skills required for college-level writing, such as "How to write a historical/biographical analysis" and "How to write a Marxist analysis." In addition, in training for my tutorship, I wrote a research paper on how to tutor various types of LD students, focusing on students with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, and various Autism Spectrum Disorders. I've also worked as a leader at Cedarville University's annual writing camp for high school-age students. At the camp, I led group workshops for creative writing (both fiction and poetry) and led discussions on perfecting various writing skills.
I prefer a style that empowers the students to take ... read more

Writing is one of my top subjects! Worked for 5.5 years as a writing tutor in two university level settings. Helped students develop and mature their writing skills. Spoke at the 2009 ECWCA Annual Conference.

I absolutely love to write. I've been a professional tutor throughout the entirety of my collegiate marathon--a lengthy 5.5 years--and have worked with a variety of different students on thousands of diverse papers. From poetry to journalism, research to flash-fiction, there isn't anything I don't love to work on. A lot of students ask, 'Where do I begin?' For most of them this is the scariest question--the resistance that keeps them from getting started. For me, this is the most exciting question, the stage where the possibilities are endless and opportunities are waiting to unfold. Conversations, mind-mapping, outlining, and drawing are a few ways I like to get started. It's all a breeze from there. Let's write!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Writing Minor, and I am well- trained in not only creative writing, but writing non-fiction work and journalism styled writing. I have also written several short scripts, some of which have been performed by a small group of students for an audience. I have a great love of words, language, and imagery through both words and language. I wish to work with other potential writers to help them sculpt their own writing craft.

I have worked in many aspects of tutoring from being a lead teacher in a daycare classroom to my current job as a bilingual teacher assistant in an elementary school. I have held my current job for four years. I have worked with children with varying disabilities. I have also tutored college students in study and test taking skills, reading and comprehension, math, and English language arts.
I vary my teaching style according to what brings out the best in each of my students. It depends on what learning strategy works best for them.

I have earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Science from Grand Valley State University in 2008, and has equipped me with the knowledge of many applications of biological and physical sciences.

I love teaching because I love passing on knowledge. I believe anyone can learn anything they want, it just takes us all different lengths of time and effort to achieve our educational goals. As a tutor and a TA I was always trying to rethink my presentation of the material when the students seemed confused. We all think about math in slightly different ways, so I was always trying to adapt my explanations to their style of thinking. I am patient, easy-going, friendly, and reliable. Also, if I don't know something, I will not make something up; I will go find out and report back to the student what I have learned.
I worked in the Math Department, as either a tutor or a Teaching Assistant, for the past three years. As a Teaching Assistant I led a 50 minute recitation of the material, graded materials, and kept records for my 30 students. As a tutor I helped MSU undergraduates lea ... read more
