More About This Tutor...

I am a retired school teacher that has been tutoring all elementary grade students, as well as intermediate students. I have a great deal of teaching in both teaching and tutoring. I feel very confident to teach all subjects in the elementary grade levels. I am a positive, sensitive teacher and I feel that all students can succeed if they are taught with the following in mind: the learning style/s of the student, the developmental level of the student, changing the motivational level of student (if necessary), an accurate evaluation of the student is analyzed, determine realistic goals and keep the student on task with an enjoyable environment that is conducive to learning.
My teaching style is usually a one-on-one approach beginning with material that is proven to be relatively easier for the student so that that we can establish an enjoyable,interactive approach. We will progr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored and educated staff to raise their knowledge and understanding in an effort to help them appreciate their role and the benefit of their effort toward the goals of the overall department and organization. It has been my privilege to work with many bright, wonderful people who often didn't know "why they were doing what they were doing" or how important their role/work was to the whole. As a manager, I knew/know that 'you can only be as good as your people'. I love to see people succeed and come to believe in themselves and their abilities. I come from a long line of teachers and decided I didn't want to be another teacher--isn't if funny that I have most enjoyed the teacher/mentor role within work environments!
Interactive--listening to and learning from student to determine "where they're at". Then, posing questions to enable them to find their own beginning/so ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

It is my considered opinion that there are many styles of teaching that can work effectively with students. Generally, I feel that it is best to adapt the style of teaching to the personality, interest, and capability of the student. My preference is working with teens and young adults, with whom I find that a style that guides them to find the answers for themselves is of greatest advantage. To do this, I tend to patiently guide students with a series of questions, only "jumping in" with information when they begin to appear to have reached a point of frustrated impasse.
I have twenty-five years of experience teaching religious subject matter(and the Bible)in smaller church settings. I have both a Bachelor's Degree and Master's Degree, and am in the process of completing a professional Doctorate at a local seminary. I have also had the opportunity to teach a graduate level semi ... read more

I am an experienced tutor. I love tutoring. I gained experience by working at the pierce college tutoring center with different students and a rich staff of tutors. I did undergo a lot of trainings to help me communicate with the students and locate the area they are having difficulties to deploy the most adequate method to help them. I am a student too; I am going to school for computer and information science. I tutor math, french, and English at the Pierce college tutoring center.
As I am really interested in programming; I decided to come to United state after I earned a Superior Technician diploma in Networking and Telecommunications. I went through a rich education along all those years in high school which enabled me to gain a lot of understanding in so many subjects such as Math, philosophy, chemistry, biology... I have a strong skill in grammar and writing because i have w ... read more

I love to teach, and I believe my teaching style is very laid back. I like to allow my students to attempt things and try to figure it out with the information I provide. That way I know they are grasping the concepts. That is more important to me then speeding through a course just to get things done. I would be a failure if one of my students left my course not knowing exactly what they were doing. So I pride myself in slowing down if needed to ensure everyone is on the same page and can retain the information that is being taught to them.
My experience as a teacher began in my Church, I taught for 3 years in one of our Sunday School classes. My students ranged in age from 2-11 years old. After graduation from the University of Washington I was unsure if Education was what I wanted to do. So I chose a different path, and found out just how much I loved to teach. I decided to take ... read more

High school counselors steered me toward math and sciences. During my thirty years as an elementary teacher I taught third grade with the exception of second grade and fourth grade for one year each. After retiring my school district hired me to attend workshops on writing skills, then had me work with several elementary schools' at-risk students to boost their basic report and story writing skills. During that time I worked with a cadre of five retired teachers who evaluated both written and math work for elementary aged students. This included encouragement and feedback for improvement on their work. Following that I was hired as a learning specialist for reading, writing and math for grades one through five.
I believe all children can learn if given proper encouragement to develop their desire for knowledge. I greet students with a smile, their name, and a comment to show ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach children of all ages, especially when they are eager to learn. I am always excited when I see the success children achieve. I have never met a student that couldn't learn. I always bond with my students and really care about them. I believe my success is seeing them succeed. Each student is a fresh experience and sometime a wonderful challenge.
I first began tutoring reading and writing in 1996 and continue. I wanted to become an English teacher but couldn't finish college because my parents could not afford it. I love to read and also to read to others. Teaching has always been my passion. I would like to do it more.

My drive for knowledge enabled me to complete three degrees by the age of 22. I have high grades in all my classes as well as the extra science and writing classes I take on the side. I have a AAST in environmental science and technology, a BA in marine science and environmental studies, and will have my BS in one quarter. As well as being a full time student except for the summertime I tutor people in need of a little extra help. I have tutors ages from 6-25 and people with disabilities as well. I can help them with every subject, however my strongest subjects to tutor in are Math, Science, and History. I have an understanding that each person learns differently and I am able to cater to those differences in the effort to better help them and encourage there learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from Winona State, I administered standardized testing to students enrolling in a private elementary school just starting up . I also taught beginning reading to an adult. While homeschooling my own children I was a qualified standardized test administrator for other homeschooling parents. I also adapted community educational opportunities and curriculums for multi-grade use. I was a volunteer tutor for a year in a public grade school resource room in Steilacoom, Washington with happy sucess. Several years ago I passed the Washington State teaching certification testing but did not pursue teaching at that time.
When I was a student teacher, the "fault" my teaching supervisor found in me was that of doing "too much individiuaized and small group teaching" in my combined classroom of 1st and 2nd graders. He didn't think I could keep it up but I did and with good r ... read more

I am highly qualified to tutor in the areas of English/reading/writing. I currently volunteer at my son's school and assist children with assignments, I have created well written manuals and marketing materials for local businesses and have also written brief articles for the Herald newspaper. English has always come naturally to me and I've found writing to be a fun outlet for all of my energy and would love an opportunity to share my education and teach others.
I am an outgoing, positive individual and this style comes across clearly when I work with children. I have a gift when it comes to making learning fun and rewarding. Much of a person's self esteem is derived from their accomplishments, therefore it is important to me that the children that I work with learn "how" to do the work, rather than someone giving up on teaching and doing it for them. I am very patient. If I have ... read more
