My approach to teaching is more of a "why" approach. It is more important for students to know why something is or works rather than just how. This approach works well for middle and high school students. It allows students not only to understand the ideas taught but to apply them to other areas as well. I also like to use visual aids as well as conversation. I have found that many of us vary widely in learning styles. Some are visual learners, others are audio learners, and still others are a combination. I work well one-on-one but also enjoy small groups. I look forward to working with you or your children to produce results they can be proud of. I have a BS in business and can tutor in any business related fields. In addition, my original college major was physics. I can and have taught physics, math, (up to differential equations) and physical sciences. I have also been an ame

As a recent graduate from Slippery Rock University, I have earned my BS in both Elementary Education as well as Special Education. I have worked with the university to tutor fellow college classmates and helped potential teacher candidates succeed in mathematics. I have also gained my certification in middle school mathematics. At the completion of my student teaching experience I received exemplary marks not only from my cooperating teachers but also my university supervisor in my knowledge of content and my abilities to teach them. Throughout my education, I have come to learn and adapt to many different types of learners. I understand that students many require alternative teaching methods to accommodate to their personal needs and I enjoy the challenge. Personally, I am a visual learner, however I always make my best attempt to address auditory and tactile learners. In doing so

Teaching is my passion. I strongly believe that every moment is a teaching moment, whether or not it is intended to be. I feel that my job as a tutor and as a teacher is to bring out the knowledge within. I understand that every learner is different and for this reason I begin with an assessment of each student. I then try to use their learning habits as a start for future lessons. I believe in learning through experience as opposed to memorization and so every opportunity I try to create a hands-on environment. I also am intentional in personalizing lessons so that they make sense and are fun to the learner. I also stress retention of information through constant review and skill-building. I am a very patient, encouraging, and enthusiastic tutor. I am an upcoming May 2006 graduate from Allegheny College, majoring in English. Given my background at a small, liberal arts college a

I’m a graduate from the University of Pittsburgh (2009) with a B.S. in Business Administration. After graduation, I realized my true calling while working at my YMCA in our Child Development Center. My title was an office coordinator position, but I took further responsibilities to help out our teachers in our preschool and toddler classrooms. Along with helping out the preschool classes, I have also worked with our school-aged children. This is where I learned that helping children grow is what I enjoy to do and plan to do for the rest of my career. I will be returning to school at the University of Pittsburgh in Fall 2011 to obtain my teaching certification for Elementary Education. As a student myself, I know how difficult it is to learn academics by one person’s particular teaching style. I believe that you must teach by finding out your students’ interests and use those to

I never really considered myself a teacher as much as just someone who understood something a little better than someone else. To that extent I guess my style is more of helping someone to gain a better understanding of a particular topic or process. Discussion and example as well as some actual hands on tasks will help someone to discover their own potential for understanding and mastering the topic at hand. I want to leave that person with a comfortable feeling of "I can do this!" when faced with having to perform that task on their own. My tutoring experience comes from high school, college and job environments. When it comes to bookkeeping and accounting I discovered a natural ability during my first bookkeeping class in high school. After finishing the course material in half the time, I was allowed to assist other students. In college, I was repeatedly asked by fellow classmat

I am passionate when it comes to teaching. I conduct my lessons with the understanding that every child is an individual. Therefore, they each have their own learning pace and preferences. The first tutoring session, I set aside, to learn more about the child and to conduct an assessment which will help me in determining that child's learning patterns. In addition, I believe in meeting with the parents weekly to discuss their child's progress and to offer advice on how they can help aid their child in their academic success. I am experienced in teaching. I have worked within the public school systems as a substitute teacher and as a permanent employee. In addition, I have taught GED classes to adults; and tutored elementary and high school students. I am nearly completed with my Master of Science degree, and I have an earned Bachelor of Science degree from Bellevue University.

I love the experience of teaching children and seeing the light in their eyes when they understand what they are learning. I believe each child learns in their own way and in their own time. As such, I believe in going along with the student's ability. I do not believe in high pressure teaching. I am patient and easy going. If a student is struggling, I back up and try another approach. I strive for my students to enjoy what they are learning as much as possible. I earned my Bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Mathematics. I was a substitute teacher for three years. I recently earned nine credit hours of additional education in order to renew my teaching license with the State of Ohio. Currently a stay-at-home mother, I give piano lessons to students at various levels of ability. I took piano lessons for eight years and am considered to be an advanced player

I am a graduate from the Marshall University School of Education.

Throughout my education experience at Marshall I participated in many different practicum classes where I taught and tutored children in a variety of subjects. I was also required to take courses pertaining to the content knowledge of elementary school curriculum. These courses also taught me how to teach students this curriculum in a variety of different ways. I have experience teaching and tutoring math, english, social studies, and science. Through my teaching experiences I have developed a "never say die" teaching style. I am willing to try as many methods as it takes in order to help the student achieve academic success. I am very p

In the past year, I have watched my "Little Sister" evolve from a shy, rebellious 8-year old to an outgoing, well-mannered, A student. I believe the one-on-one time she and I spend together has played a large role in her transformation. I was able to offer to her, the support she needed to succeed.

I love working with students and helping them to learn and understand. I believe that any student can understand any subject and that all students are able to succeed. I am an innovative, flexible, and patient individual. I am excited to work with students helping them to succeed in all that they do. As for a specific teaching style, I beleive that teachers should adapt how they teach. This ability to change is what allows all students to learn no matter past experiences in a given subject. As someone who is working full-time and going to school full-time, I am driven to succeed in everything that I do.

I completed eight years of Music through the School on The following Instruments, Mallet Percussion, Trombone, Piano, Minor Voice.
