Fun outgoing student teacher here to make learning easier.

Non professional student teacher willing to help any young adult or child in learning fun and exciting new ways to learn new materials. I don't just take charge and try and make them learn I let them tell me how they can retain the information the way it suits them. I am a non professional student teacher but love to help make learning fun. I am currently enrolled at Brown Mackie College and know how difficult it can be to understand what is being taught. That's why I am here.

My comments on tutoring Science : Through 2nd year High School

I use the Socratic method, meeting the students where they are, and using gentle questioning to build on that base. I start with the assumption that all children are gifted learners, and communicate that belief to them. It is essential to create a base of success upon which to build future success. I also spend time finding something to like deeply about each child; and discovering what the child is interested in. When an adult takes an interest in the child's world, and shares that interest in a positive reinforcing manner, it opens to door to learning.
I have taught internship classes and tutored statistics at the University level. I have tutored mathematics from elementary to calculus at a junior college. I have been a GRE instructor for the Stanley Kaplan company I founded, owned and operated the Idaho School of Professional Hypnosis for 10 years, teaching hypnosis and hyp ... read more

10 years experience teaching chemistry!

I have 10 years of experience teaching chemistry labs: general chemistry and organic chemistry. I also have 10 years of experience tutoring chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry at the college level. I enjoy helping people learn. I've often had students say something like, "Oh! I finally understand. My lecture professor taught me this, but I didn't understand it until now!"
Lots of different ways to approach the problem. If you don't understand it one way, I can usually help you attack the problem from a "different direction."

More About This Tutor...

When teaching mathematics, I believe that over half of my job is social skills. Calming my students down, easing their frustration, and making them feel comfortable is over half the battle. It isn't that mathematics is too hard for most people, it is just too frustrating for most people. So my job is to set my client at ease and to create a learning environment. Once that learning environment is created, teaching is easy. I have worked with difficult students. One, who we will call John, has Autism, Schizophrenia, and vomits when upset. It was my job to teach John how to count money. After trying a variety of methods, we eventually found that learning in traditional environments was too stressful for John. So, we played Monopoly. People had been trying to teach him to count money for months, maybe years. Three weeks after I started with him, I took him to Walmart with a ha ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Due to my background, I have learned patience and passion are essential for a student’s success. Further, not everyone learns the same way. Therefore, over the last five years, I have discovered multiple ways to explain something differently to help develop understanding. Further, I feel that your student needs to understand the material, not just regurgitate information for a test. This way, your student can draw upon this knowledge for future classes and tests.
For the last five years, I have been helping children and adolescents with disabilities and, more recently, tutoring students at BSU. After five and a half years at BSU, I graduated with an elementary education degree. I have a background in mathematics and science, as both were previous majors I chose to pursue. During my last year of college, I was in the public schools where I taught and apprenticed under master ... read more

I have a unique approach to teaching because my background is both analytical (numbers and science) and imaginative (theater and literature). While classroom training is my forte, I also have a solid background in teaching online. This combination is particularly useful since no two children learn in the same way. I do not believe any student is dumb. If he or she has struggled picking up a concept, it is more likely because the right method of teaching has not yet been explored. I also believe educational advancement needs to be determined objectively by comparing scores from start to finish and subjectively by measuring a student's own feelings about his or her progress.
As a graduate from BYU with a BS in finance and composite minors in accounting and economics, I moved into the medical management field. Within 7 years, I had taken a medical practice struggling to survive financ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past 15 years or more I have mentored and coached hundreds of individuals. The primary areas of focus were math, statics (Statistical Process Control, Design of Experiments and Data Analysis) and Physics (Thermo Dynamics, Electronics and Modeling Processes plus problem solving).
I like to see people learn and the look on their faces once they understand. I do not believe that one style of teaching works for everyone. I like to work with the individual to evaluate how they learn before starting to teach.

Working with such a diverse population of students ranging from grades 3-12, I have learned that each child processes information in different ways. Assisting them in overcoming their learning disability has taught me to understand and identify their struggles and how they can work through them. I teach positive social and communication skills through small group discussions and lecture based presentations. Much of my teaching experience is rooted in one-on-one and small group interaction. I believe that every child has the right to an equal education and that every support service that is available should be provided. I truly enjoy the challenge of motivating a student through difficulties they may encounter in academics. I have the ability to relate quickly with students which helps develop a trust that will result in progress for the student.
For the past 2 years since gra ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always been passionate about art. I am fortunate to have learned my skill from some very talented and capable professors who I admire; I know I have the ability to successfully teach students at all ages and knowledge levels. I have spent much time volunteering at a local elementary school, not only teaching art, but helping out with other duties as well. I enjoy teaching and helping others in any way that I can. I completed my student teaching in Fall 2009 where I taught grades 7-9 Art Foundations and Drawing. I immensely enjoyed student teaching and was sad to leave. I look forward to having regular students again teaching in a field I am truly passionate about. I have been substitute teaching for the past 2 years in all subjects.
I believe if given the right tools, a student can and will succeed in education. If a student feels comfortable in the classroom, I believe tha ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always enjoyed teaching and working with learners of all ages. I believe most people can learn and we all learn in a diffeent fashion. Some of us are visual, some auditory, some kinesthetic. I understand who to teach people in each modality by being firm, fair,a nd consistent with each individual. My goal is to use any method possible to help a chld learn and be a productive, responsible citizen in society. By being flexible in methodology yet firm, fair, and consistent in approach, I believe I can be successful in assisting any learner to be successful
As a graduate of Northwest Nazarene University (BA, History, 2000) and Boise State University (BA, Political Science, 1995), was very much driven to academic excellence. My degrees have enabled me to learn how to read and critically analyze content and to determine the credibility and reliability of the information I receive. ... read more

I am a very patient and driven teacher, which I believe are extremely important characteristics. Easy going is a great way to describe my personality, and students seem to sense that from me. It makes for a comfortable learning environment, but I also love having a lot of structure and planning in my methods so that learning stays on track. The educators that I have admired and looked up to all had these approaches when they had taught me, and I appreciated it. That is what I want to pass on to my students.
As an educator, my philosophy in education is to inspire and to guide students. I am very driven in the education field and it is of great importance to me. I have earned my Associates of Arts degree, and felt it was necessary to continue on with obtaining a Bachelors degree in order to expand my career options.I furthered my education by adding on my Secondary Teaching Certific ... read more
