Many years experience using all versions of MS Office, with a focus on Word and Excel. I worked as an ESL teacher in Japan for almost four years teaching people of all ages, from toddlers to senior citizens. The opportunity to live in Japan, coupled with study in university has also given me an intermediate level of Japanese. In high school I also had a position as an assistant teacher at a karate dojo, working with large groups of children of all ages. Additionally, having studied and/or worked in Japan, the UK, New Zealand and most recently Australia, I have familiarity interacting with people from wide ethnic, cultural and linguistic backgrounds and can alter my teaching style accordingly. I have a fairly relaxed style, though I am flexible and can adjust to whatever will make the student(s) most comfortable.

I have found that tutoring sessions are most effective when they are fun! Many students find it difficult to stay focused, especially after a full school day. For this reason, I prefer to change tasks frequently and use a variety of fun games to switch up the pace of the session. Learning can be frustrating for many students when a particular subject does not come as naturally or easily as other subjects. Thus, I do my best to incorporate student's interests into reward systems and constantly give the student positive feedback about their progress to help motivate the student. I work hard to get to know the student and tailor tasks and activities to their particular learning style. I write with great enthusiasm to apply for the position of Tutor.

In 2006 I attended Pacific Lutheran University earning my masters degree in educational leadership with endorsements in special education, reading, and elementary education. After graduate school, I found a job in a middle school EBD classroom. Here I designed my own behavior management program, managed education plans, and created lessons that were exciting and engaging for my students. I worked in this classroom for 2 years. Last year, I began working in an elementary EBD classroom with students in grades 1, 2, 3, and 4. I create and manage IEPs and teach a variety of subject matter to a variety of academic levels. I have taught all subjects grades k - 8 during my teaching career. I believe that all students deserve a chance to be successful, and my teaching goal is to find ways that allow them to be. I understand that success comes in many forms, and I believe even the littlest succ

Providing educational support services is a continual, developmental process. Just as employees and students change, so should the support services that are available. Services should be flexible and diverse while at the same time maintaining the highest level of quality. Strong educational supports will promote critical thinking and skill development in its students. It will offer variety, through complex learning environments and barrier-free opportunities. Additionally effective support services will address the whole student, from a personal perspective, offering assistance with non-academic issues that will allow the student to perform and achieve at his/her greatest capacity. Creativity, consistency and collaborative efforts from a support service arena will enhance the likelihood for success at all levels. Through innovative and continually evaluated services, a diverse

I teach with a lot of involvement and attention to each child's needs. I am passionate about what I do. I love children and I teach my own son maths in a fun and creative way. I once taught a child struggling in maths and he was able to ace in his exams after my efforts. Every child has potential and needs to gain confidence in his/her abilities. I can bring out the best in your child through hard work, compassion, and through intelligent and creative ideas. I was a graduate assistant at YSU for a year during my Masters degree.I taught engineering and mathematics coursework and gave exam papers. I also corrected/checked exam papers. I completed my Masters degree in Mechanical engineering. Because of this exposure I am excellent with teaching Mathematics, algebra, advanced mathematics and also physics, chemisty and biology for elementary, middle and high school level.

Throughout my life I have had the pleasure of working with children through school groups, summer camps, English camps in Eastern Europe, and in the classroom. While my role may change in each setting, the constant in each, is addressing the needs of the child as paramount concern. I feel I shouldn’t enter any teaching situation with pre-conceived notions of what a student is capable of, rather first assess what level they are at, and then tailor learning goals to the particular learner. I am honest with students, not hiding what I am trying to teach them; rather, involve them in the whole process of learning. With regards to instruction, I feel that there are many different methods for teaching. Clearly what works for one student, doesn’t always work for the other. Having flexibility with instructional tools and approaches allows me to meet the individual needs of the learner. My time

In my teaching style I strive for excellence with all my students to reach their potential while under my teaching them. I am committed to improving their understanding of concepts and skills taught and for them to learn to take responsibility for their learning, too. It is important that I observe and listen to find what method of learning suits my students best. Some need a very structured approach, while others need to learn through a hands-on discovery approach. I believe that communication is essential and possible with my students even if we don't speak the same language, with cooperation from the parents as also very important. My approach is to treat each other with respect and embrace diversity. It is my goal to make a positive impact on all my students.

Over the last 15 years, I have worked in various different areas. First, I taught adult ESL, and had occasional tutoring gigs with Russian speakers learning English, and some English speakers learning Russian. Currently, I work as a special education teacher. Part of my job is to work in small ratios with honors students who have disabilities. This "study skills" class often requires one-on-one tutoring. As it has evolved over the years, my teaching style has become a mix of facilitation and direct instruction, with the goal always being the student's making his own discovery. I was trained in the Socratic style, which seems to match well with inquiry-based learning, and that is how my classes usually end up. I introduce activities, then gradually release them to the students to lead.

I help people to understand complex ideas, gain new knowledge by presenting the information that is interesting and easy to follow. I use a lot of analogy when presenting the information. I choose a field the learner is already familiar with and draw analogies from the field to speed up the knowledge transition. I will ensure the learning is fast and fun and lead the learner to wanting more of the knowledge. I make the learner believe learning does not end with passing a course or exam. When I achieve this, I believe great grades in the exam are definite. My interest in educating others sparked when I first conducted a training program for engineers in my work place. Since then I explored the field of learning and development and gained a lot of knowledge on how knowledge flows from person to person. Inspired by my findings, I did my master’s thesis on Knowledge Management. Today, I

My philosophy on teaching is not centered just on the concept at hand, but rather on the goal of helping the student develop the skills to expand on that concept and apply them to other problems. When I tutored other college students at the UW, I helped my students explore topics from every possible angle we could think of so that the student can fully develop a solid grasp of that topic, and lay down the foundations needed to be able to apply that learning and understanding to other situations and problems. Thus, even with a limited set of practice problems, I believe that with the right approach, a student can learn to work their way through an unlimited set of problems, given the proper tools and a solid foundation on a subject. As an undergraduate student at the University of Washington, I pushed myself to excel academically. I received a BS in Biochemistry and a BA in dance, allowin

Education, youth and adult continuing education are great passions of mine. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and has room for improvement. I don't believe that education has to be dull and I value creative approaches to learning, all the while keeping a keen eye on the task at hand. I throughly enjoy learning each student's individual personality and strive to find ways to make material approachable, relevant and practical. Sometimes the "trick" is just to relate to what they already know and love. Key educators made a profound impact on my life and it's my simple desire to continue to do the same for others. I place a high value on practical education. I graduated high school at the top of my class and received my AA degree just a few of months later- all while working full-time. I then obtained my BA in Organizational Management and I am now in a local grad

I got my BA in linguistics from the University of Washington, and earned an MLitt and PhD in English language from the University of Glasgow, Scotland. My training in English and linguistics has equipped me for critical thinking from both the literary and scientific angles, and given me detailed knowledge of English grammar. Past positions as a proofreader for EFL students, an IT tutor, and a reading tutor for primary-level students each add further dimensions of experience and versatility to my teaching repertoire. I enjoy writing, and ten years of college and postgraduate studies in two countries have honed my skills, allowed me to teach in a wide range of settings, and provided many chances to share my knowledge with others. I love to introduce students to new ways of thinking about language, literature, culture, and history; there's nothing better than "seeing the light go on". My ai
