I attended Rufus King World IB High school in Milwaukee, Wi, one of the most prestigious inner city high schools in the country. I excelled in IB Geography, Chorus, and Theatre. I was one of those kids who never did any homework, but passed my tests. Everyone came to me for help on projects, homework, ect. I feel that I didn't fully utilize my strengths in school as I could have, so I would love to share that with those who need it now. Very relaxed, easy going, friendly. I feel less pressure and non stressful settings help students learn better. They can relate to a younger person who is more in tune with youth and someone who understands them.

My teaching style is according to the student. If the student is a visual learner I will prepare a power point for them to view which would detail a step by step process of the lesson scheduled to learn. Very patient and understanding tutoring. My name is Jennifer and I have more then 20 years of experience in the technology field. All the organizations I have been associated with are Fortune 500 organizations where I have conducted class room instructions on Microsoft Word, Excel and Access. My tutoring style for technology is hands-on instructions - step by step lessons on the operation of Word, Excel and Access as well as PowerPoint presentation for students who are visual. For the more advanced students who want to learn macros and VBA programming, I will still have the ability to provide them with real-world examples and hands-on experience.

It is my pleasure to be of assistance to any student in any subject matter. I love being able to help others in subjects where they are weak. I have a pretty flexible and open schedule and I am readily available to assist your child. I am very understanding, easy to get along with, and persistent when it comes to working with students. I believe that students learn best by doing, therefore there will be a lot of independent thinking and problem solving. My goal is to produce a more confident, educated, and self-sufficient student. As a first generation college student, I know the importance and significance education plays in one's life. I just recently earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, which has allowed me to utilize those skills and apply them to real-world problems. I am currently pursuing my masters of science in Computer Science as well. Through many research

I believe that children must be engaged in the subject matter before successful learning takes place. Finding fun, interesting, and personal ways for the child to connect to the topic will truly allow them a chance to learn and retain information. I love finding different ways for individual learners to understand what they are being taught. I am a senior in the Education program at Appalachian State University. As an Elementary Education major, I have worked closely with children from many age levels. I have participated in an after-school tutor/mentor program at Appalachian State in 2008. In 2009, I completed two internships while in the Education Program. One working with 2nd grade students and the other with 5th grade students. I have also taken many courses to understand context and teaching strategies in all subject areas.

Over several years as a teacher, tutor, and teaching assistant I have had the privilege of refining my teaching strategy. For example, as a physics tutor, I coached a high school senior who was intimidated with the subject how to master it using a simple reproducible foundation. I have also life changing testimonials other science subjects. My academic achievements include PhD in biology and a BS with a joint Chemistry with Physics degree. I am always fascinated at the prospect of permanent uplifting a student's. I teach with the assumption that everyone can learn anything. At the core of my teaching philosophy is the mental model or concept. Consequently, my first goal is to determine if the student has a mental model of the subject matter. If not, I will guide them in discovering a useful one using their existing models and their preferred input mode (tactile, visual, etc.). If a stude

I am a disciplinarian. I have an excellent ability to gain a students attention, keep it and the results of my students have been well above average. I have a knack to bring into the classroom, outside events (latest ball games, Olympics, etc.) to establish a 'bond' between myself and the student. This allows me to gain their confidence as well as not create a bored atmosphere. I find this very important, especially with the more difficult students. As seen from above, I have valid tutoring experience in both middle grades and HS. I was in the student teaching program at Wake Forest and upon graduation, I was a substitute teacher in the Winston-Salem, Forsyth County School system. I also participated in the Junior Achievement program in the Piedmont NC region for over 5 years. I am currently a tutor with the "No Child Left Behind Program."

As a French teacher, I encouraged learning by using a number of different manipulative, hand-on activities, and various forms of technology. By incorporating discussions and open-ended questions, I was able to facilitate a highly interactive and inquisitive atmosphere. In addition, I utilized weekly quizzes and monthly tests to track student progress, locate areas of weakness, and prepare students for finals exams. My goal is to increase student motivation, awareness, and understanding of French Language, while implementing interdisciplinary-based lessons involving grammar, vocabulary and reading comprehension. With over 8 years of hands-on, successful teaching experience, I’m confident in my ability and passion to be an excellent French Teacher. I have earned all my degrees in French area (West Africa, France and Quebec, Canada). Being a Native French and a versatile individual, I have
