I draw on a variety of teaching experiences that contribute to my success with students. My most recent position was teaching all subjects to grades K-4 in a self-contained classroom. We had a family atmosphere with an open door policy where parents could visit and talk with me before and after school any day of the week. Because I developed the curriculum, I have a thorough understanding of where a student should be presently, and where he is heading. Problems were solved and goals achieved using guided practice, hand-on materials, music, repetition and memory, experimentation, field trips, and library resources. I am highly organized, yet flexible, as I assess a student’s needs and challenges.
I have had a variety of teaching experiences since graduating from a small teacher’s college with strict requirements. I have taught geography, physical education, piano, keyboarding ... read more

I'm very skills-based in my approach to teaching and employ many learning "tricks" involving mnemonics, flash-cards, student-generated learning materials, as well as being able to help the student learn to integrate what she learns into a cohesive and understandable framework for retention. I home-schooled my own son using a Montessori approach, with which I am very conversant, and he was auditing college level courses at the age of fourteen--which is proof of my ability. As an adjunct college prof for twelve years, I received superior evaluations from my students. I can provide sterling references from peers.
In addition to tutoring in my home for fifteen years, I received a Summa Cum Laude for the quality of my Master's Thesis in Creative Writing, and was the only student ever to be asked to serve as the Interim Director of the Cleveland State Writing Center. I have won awards ... read more

My teaching style approaches the learner with patience and creativity. As an art and writing student, I realize that many kids learn differently, and I try to approach each situation as a unique situation. As a writing consultant what I loved hearing about was when students became more confident and improved to the point of independence. Because of this my teaching style involves breaking down the writing process into a format that is understandable for the student and using the foundations of their learning. As a student myself, I appreciate and respond best to constructive criticism, and so I have learned to first praise, and then improve.
As an undergraduate student, I had the opportunity to work as a tutor in the Writing Center of Andrews University. I assisted both undergraduate and graduate students and community members with various essays and papers, concentrating on gramma ... read more

As you can see from my experience, working with children has long been a passion of mine, and is ultimately my career goal. I thrive on discovering the individual learning styles of children, and learning how best to communicate with them in order to help them reach their full potential. I am calm, patient, compassionate and most of all dedicated.
I am British born and educated, and discovered my passion for teaching in Vietnam when I taught English as a second language to children aged from 4-12. Since then, I have graduated with an Honors degree in History, and worked with several child-centered programs. I am currently working for Active:Water in Kalamazoo where part of my role involves educating children about the water crisis, I am also interning for the Humane Society in their Educational Programing department. In the past I have worked for Girls on the Run International, Sam ... read more

I am a native German speaker living in the US for over ten years, I fluently speak, read and write English and German. I worked in the travel department for the US Department of Defense in Stuttgart, Germany. I am currently working as a translator/interpreter. I enjoy translating and switching from one language to another. Because of many cultural aspects, I have the knowledge to explain the differences of both languages and countries to enhance the learning experience and I am certain to be able to assist any student who would like to improve their skills in learning German.

I have recently graduated with an MA in counseling psychology and have come to deeply appreciate academics and the role of education in our lives. As a graduate student, my writing and research skills were sharpened. I have worked as a career counselor for the past 3 years and have led groups and worked with students individually on career issues. While I was in college I was a volunteer tutor with elementary students in reading and writing and some math.
With my counseling background, I desire to work with your student to help build his/her confidence in academics, but also confidence in his/her self. Each student has a unique learning style and I will take a collaborative approach to help them discover what works best for who they are. I see myself as a learning coach for students.
