My grandchildren do complain that I turn everything into a teaching experience. My most cherished desire is to pass on to another generation the best education possible.I am patient and willing to work on an issue until the student has fully grasped the solution.

More About This Tutor...

I just graduated with my Master's degree from the University of Phoenix. I completed 6 months of students in teaching to fulfill my degree requirements. I am currently a substitute teacher where I have the joy of working with students of various learning abilities and ages. I have also spent time working as a tutor for a daughter of a friend. With this experience, I was able to tutor this girl in reading and help a high level learner gain a clearer picture of comprehension in her reading. I have also taught Sunday school and worked with young students in my church.
I love working with students of all ages, backgrounds and learning abilities. I believe that all students deserve a fair and equal chance to learn in school and no child should be left behind. I also feel that all students can reach their full potential in learning if given the chance. I believe that most students le ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college graduate I believe strongly that the four years I spent perfecting, or at least expanding my literacy, comprehension, communication, and written skills, makes me a qualified canidate to tutor others, and help them improve on those same related skills. I have also had a lot of expereince with kids, working at daycares and afterschool programs where some teaching is required. With the level of education I have in the area of English, plus time spent in teaching environment, would also make me a strong canidate.
My teaching style is based on patience, creativity, and an understanding that everyone has different learning style. It is very important to me that I offer different approaches or different examples or ways to learn. Some kids learn visually, hands on, orally ext. And it is crucial that I as an educator would have different ways for them to learn. I am super pati ... read more
