Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Steilacoom, WA

I like to empower the student. Hands on is important, and then let the student develop and learn by empowerment. I have over 30 years of playing and teaching experience of piano and keyboard. I feel I have an advantage as a piano teacher with perfect pitch. Even though my strength as a player is primarily jazz, I can teach all styles. I can teach using two approaches. There are students who want to learn how to read or to improve their reading skills, and then there are students who know how to read, but cannot improvise. My experience allows me to teach piano with both approaches.

American Sign Language has been a profound influence in my life. It began as a sophomore in high school, for my junior and senior year my teacher was deaf. My skills improved rapidly when I was called to serve for two years in the deaf community in CA. Just prior I was called to learn this subject and a language learning institute for ten weeks. In the city of Fremont CA was the deaf institute where I labored for nearly two years. Due to its reputation and richness in deaf culture students from all over the world attended this school. I was fortunate to learn the language there in nearly all of its accents and dialects. I was also assigned to work with deaf people as partners. In addition I have several hundred hours of interpreting in the religion, business, and education settings. I know I will be of great help to those who assign me as their tutor and together we can learn, ex

I'm a average web designer who is completely self taught. I think that for that reason I would be able to connect more with the students because I didnt sit in a classroom and have a teacher. I learned at a slower rate but I got to choose which fields in webdesign I wanted to focus on. In a college type setting your required to follow the same study path that all the other students are on. Which makes learning your favorite style much harder. I can provide a per student curriculum of study which will bring a positive and fun take on the world of web design which is made even more cutting edge by my age. A 33 yr old can teach someone how to make a modern unique website. A 60+ yr old tutor will only show how to build boring run of the mill websites! :) Modern Age, Cutting Edge and Detail Oriented plus Fun!

Experiential. According to the IDEA system of assessing teaching style, I learned that a particular strength of mine is related to the use of multiple resources in the form of practical applications to improve understanding of the significance of the subject matter. This process facilitates learning and solidifies an understanding of how the learned materials are potentiated in real-world applications. Taught undergraduate courses in Introduction to Psychology, Motivational Psychology, Forensic Psychology, Social Psychology, and Brain and Behavior. Taught in R1 and Private Liberal Arts institutions. Tutored undergraduate English, Writing (particularly resume/CV), Psychology, Sociology, and Statistics. I am a teaching consultant and have spent an appreciable amount of time leading trainings that teach a wide range of people (i.e., from paraprofessional to doctoral level) how to teach o

Li-San loves music of all styles, whether it is classical, jazz or contemporary, and enjoys teaching any student who is eager to learn and improve their skills. She is a friendly, patient, and committed teacher who cares about the progress of each of her students. One of Li-San's greatest joys in her work is seeing the smile on a student's face when they finally master a piece, finish a book or pass an exam with flying colours. Li-San also finds satisfaction in correcting or improving piano technique, re-sparking interest in piano playing, and strengthening the weak areas of a student's musicianship, as she has had experience teaching students who have transferred from other teachers due to problems or lack of interest in music with a previous teacher. Li-San will show her students the most efficient way to practice and use their hands, wrists, arms, and shoulders in a relaxed manner
