I am a compassionate, adaptable, and enthusiastic individual who is dedicated to helping individuals reach their unique potentials. My teaching involves having high expectations combined with a high level of warmth and reinforcement. I believe everyone can learn, and everyone has the right to be taught in a way they can understand. I have experience teaching individuals of all ages. I have been working with various tutoring companies since May. Furthermore, I have taught numerous children how to read and do basic math. I have tutored many of my classmates in various subjects including psychology, English, biology, and algebra since high school.

I have been teaching at the post-secondary level for 3 years. Prior to that time I taught classes in Emergency Medical Technician and Cardio-pulmonary Life Support to military Doctors, nurses and medical techinicians. I have been able to develop a great rapport with my students and offer special one-on-one attention when needed to ensure the required knowledge is gained. I have assisted students with medical laboratory procedures requiring unique individual instruction. I enjoy teaching and utilize several different types of styles to keep students interested and desirous of learning. I provide thought provoking questions which require more than a simple yes or no answer. I envoke lecture as little as required to get across the point, but prefer demonstration or class participation. I utilize small groups so that students learn to interact with others.

Throughout college, I completed two field experiences followed by my student teaching experience. In between my field experiences, I substitute taught in three different school districts. These personal accounts allowed me to examine the similarities and differences within grade levels, and to recognize the various strategies used to reach all learners in both suburban and urban settings. Being out in the field also enabled me to further enhance my ability to communicate well with students, parents and faculty. My studies abroad in Seville, Spain are also an essential supplement to my educational training and background. Being immersed in a foreign language and culture is an experience all its own. Last year I taught 3rd grade at Salida del Sol Elementary in Yuma, AZ. Many of the students that I taught were English Language Learners. I felt that I could relate to those studen

I discovered my passion for instructing, tutoring, and working with youth during my experience as a substitute teacher. I understand that every student has their own unique way of learning, and I believe in a patient approach that will help a student build confidence in the subject matter, and develop good study habits. I think the greatest legacy a person can leave in life is a good impression on younger generations, and therefore I take each teaching opportunity seriously. I graduated from the University of Nevada, Reno in May of 2009 with a Bachelor's of Science in Geography, an interdisciplinary field which enabled me to cover a broad area of subject matter throughout my studies. From studying abroad in Italy, and working abroad in Ecuador, I have a knowledge of Spanish and Italian. For the 2009-2010 school year, I was a substitute teacher in the Elko County School District, and gain

I have a BS in Conservation Biology and an MA in Secondary Ed. Science. I have been teaching for the past 8 years with an emphasis on Biology and Environmental Science and also extensive experience with special needs students. I enjoy working with children as it affords me the opportunity to see the world through different eyes that are open to many possibilities. I firmly believe that all children can and in fact do learn. Learning takes place at all levels but only when motivation is intrinsic. As an educator, I work to find what that intrinsic motivation is and then allocate the resources that enable that motivation to blossom into success. Often success is enhanced in the sciences through the use of manipulatives and experimentation. This adds to the value of the lesson by giving it a sense of relavence, greatly increasing the level of success for the learner. It also makes it

I enjoy teaching children and helping them to better understand mathematics through audio, visual, and kinesthetic approaches. My teaching style differs depending on the student and the environment. I believe that all children can be successful with the right attitude, environment and mentor.

I recently graduated from the University of Colorado with a bachelor's degree in architecture which allowed me to be very understanding of math and science while also gaining a strong inclination to creativity. I taught swimming lessons and tennis lessons to children for five years and I previously worked at a summer day camp for kids ages 3-13. I am CPR and Red Cross certified, and I have a great passion for working with children. I took advanced placement English and math classes in high school and in college I used my electives towards classes such as creative writing, economics, psychology, and education classes. As I complete my teaching certification and masters of education at UNLV, I hope to help children through school by becoming a tutor. I come from a family of seven children, four of them younger than me, and three of them adopted from the Philippines. Growing up in this

As a recent college graduate, I uphold and advocate the educational experience as an essential part of life. It not only expands our mental capabilities, but also builds confidence into individuals. Both bachelor degrees that I have earned have done just that. My BA in Journalism and Media Studies has enhanced my writing and grammatical skills, while my BA in Political Science has deepened my analytical and logic skills. I have put these abilities into practice while tutoring for the last two years in English, reading comprehension, and social studies classes. My teaching style can be described in two words: persistent and patient. I believe that the reason why a student may seem disinterested in education is due to fear of not understanding the subject, embarrassment of failure, and/or lack of self-motivation or focus. But all of these can be overcome with a persistent tutor who does no

My interest in becoming a tutor stems from my life long passion for teaching and learning. Throughout the past eight years, I have focused my efforts on soaking up my education and research experiences across many subdivisions in the field of Psychology. My education ranges from expertise in Social Psychology to Cognitive Neuroscience, however is not limited to these domains. While working toward my graduate degree I was involved in analyzing vast amounts of data, writing scientific manuscripts, and general laboratory management. In addition to this, I also taught a weekly seminar for undergraduates that worked in my laboratory and tutored them throughout the week in how to learn and implement various research techniques. Thus, throughout my education and research experience I have developed superior skills in mathematics, writing, and communication that are critical to being an excellen

I am a current high school English teacher, with experience in teaching Journalism, Publications, and middle school language arts. I began tutoring students (middle school and elementary school) during a stint in Americorps (2002), and continue to tutor my own ESL students today. My strength is in teaching writing, specifically writing for standardized tests. I feel very comfortable teaching all areas of language arts, reading, study skills, and test preparation. I enjoy teaching and working with young people. I am a firm believer that students work up or down to expectations--I consistently hold high expectations and enjoy watching students work hard to meet them. Part of the challenge (and joy) of teaching is figuring out how to convey information to different types of learners. I am fascinated by the learning process, and enjoy devising new ways to teach the same subject material. On

My success as a teacher has come from my belief that young people have a better chance at succeeding when they are empowered with tools and support for their own capacity to learn and grow, rather than simply fed information. Certain qualities are needed in a tutor or teacher to make that possible: compassion, confidence and an ability to create a safe container, one that is nurturing and void of impatience and frustration. These qualities make up the foundation of my teaching style, along with a high-level of work quality and extensive experience teaching children and young people of many different backgrounds and abilities. I have over 13 years experience as a teacher and tutor as well as many years of education and training that include the following: Psychoeducational Therapist at the Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center in New York (specializing in youth with learning d
