I've worked as an Economist at the United States International Trade Commission in Washington, D.C. As part of my job, I traveled to Geneva, Switzerland, Brussels, Belgium, Mexico City, Mexico and San Juan, Puerto Rico to conduct interviews with local officials and business people concerning the United States’ international trade agreements. Using this information, Susan updated the annual Trade Agreements publications relating to the General Agreement of Trade and Tariffs (now the World Trade Organization), the European Union, the Free-Trade Agreement with Mexico, and the Caribbean Initiative. I decided upon a career change and began teaching. My specialties were ... read more

I am professional, and would love to apply my ideas in innovation regarding the education environment, duration and implementation. My bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering, while accomplished a while back, is a plus in that I’ve learned to apply my analytical skills in the years gone by. I am presently an AVID tutor, and this is another badge of my working skill that I am proud to mention. I had dealt with students which were not emotionally or physically set-up for the classroom that needed to be addressed on a daily basis. I have taught math and algebra in a college setting. I have been in the education field for 13years, and I believe I can tackle most challenges that a student can present.
My teaching style is simple. In my classroom, I am the teacher, the gate keeper and the executioner. This is premised by my belief in the contingency theory, tempered in some ways that ... read more

Teachings students one-on-one is the love of my life. I see progress in this format that is outstanding. Students can make several levels of progress in a short period of time. Providing a positive, constructive and enthusiastic environment is foundational to the success of the student. The teacher also must show by their actions that they are very interested in the success of the student. With positive interventions, there will be a positive difference in the life of the tutored child.
The biggest motivation of my teaching career is to hold a high standard of expectation. I have a MA in Special Education, and a BA in Business Administration. I am adding to my teaching certificate an additional endorsement in middle level and high school math. I have home schooled all four of my children. Two of my children have BA degrees and another is currently in college. I teach an afterschool ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned a BA cum laude at Austin College in 1969, and an MA in Economics at the University of Oregon in 1974. I have been teaching at the University level for 31 years, and am currently teaching at both Willamette University and Chemeketa CC in Salem. My teaching specialties are in Labor Economics and Managerial Economics.
I employ an interdisciplinary style of teaching, which integrates the overhead projector (ELMO), computer sites on Economics and economic policy, and a large personal collection of video sources related to Economic policy and thought.

I am here to help students improve in specific subjects and excel academically as a whole. My greatest attributes are patience, perseverance, and hard-work. I always arrive on time and I take work and school seriously. I will be a source of encouragement and support for my students. In a small way, I hope to also be a source of inspiration for my students as they carve their own academic paths.
I benefited from the liberal arts education I received from the University of Puget Sound, which offered a diverse selection of classes and an exploratory environment in which to pursue my studies. For two years, I studied Chemistry and Biology while also taking classes in the Humanities. I eventually majored in International Political Economy and obtained minors in Spanish and Latin American Studies. During my undergraduate years, I studied in Oaxaca, Mexico and received a grant for summer ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught at the college level which involved a great deal of formal lecturing. I believe in engaging the students with real world examples and situations pertaining to the economic theory learned. It is critical to get feedback and engage discussion from the students to best assess the concepts that are understood and those concepts that need more attention. I continue to develop my teaching techniques as students learn by different methods, some who understand on the pure mathematical and theoretical level as well as those who learn more from discourse and real-world examples involving less math and formal scientific methods. I have received good feedback from my students who expressed that I put a great deal of care and effort into my teaching.

More About This Tutor...

I am most familiar with conversation, as a means of relating information and testing understanding. I think that a through understanding in any subject comes about when a student can recognize the important concepts, and how they relate to each other, and speak those concepts in words which they understand--while gaining the vocabulary and proficiency as each subject demands. Most of all, I am an interested learner, in a variety of subjects, and I am excited to share my interest with others. I have a good sense of when I am being understood, and when I am not. I ask for questions, both so that I can explain myself, and so that that subject might be brought to greater depth.
My undergraduate experience has given me both breadth and depth in academic subjects. The curriculum I've studied at St. John's includes 4 years of language (2 Ancient Greek, 2 French); 3 years of laboratory sci ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion for higher education and helping young men and women reach their academic goals. I facilitated several ethics courses at Gonzaga University and helped tutor fellow graduate students in research methods and statistical analysis at Oregon State University. My teaching style is focused on the individual student. I realize that not all students are receptive to the same teaching style, as a result I am a flexible teacher who is willing to change my approach if the student is not responding positively to my initial teaching techniques.
I have recently completed my Masters degree in Public Policy from Oregon State University where I worked as a social science researcher with the department of sociology. I utilized several methods in my research, including both qualitative and quantitative research methods. I have extensive experience with SPSS and other statistical softw ... read more
