My comments on tutoring Science : Three Degrees in a science related field

I like interacting with the students. I find it pleasurable to know the student. This type of interaction helps to create a custom teaching style for each student. I will often ask questions of the questions asked of me by the student because often times the student already knows the answer in one form or another form. This type teaching helps link already known ideas to new ideas.

My teaching career has been devoted to helping individual students achieve their potential. I have taught struggling students at all grade levels. As a reading teacher, I diagnosed each student’s strengths and weaknesses. I then tailored instruction to meet each student’s needs. I have also been a Learning Disabilities teacher in a small community. This gave me the experience of teaching a wide variety of subjects to students in elementary through high school. My teaching experience includes teaching English to students who came to school speaking another language. I have many years of tutoring experience which includes teaching young children, teenagers, and adults in the areas of reading, math, and English as a second language.
My teaching style is to discover what each student needs to learn in order to be successful. I teach in a way that is most effective with that studen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy giving individual attention to students in order to figure out their personal learning styles and giftings, in order to provide opportunities for students to comprehend the material as efficiently as possible at the appropriate level.
After graduating from the University of Missouri - Columbia with a BS in Mathematics and a BSEd in Secondary Mathematics Education, I have had several opportunities as both classroom teacher and individual tutor for students ranging from middle school through college aged. Having recently returned from studying translation in Nairobi, Kenya, I have a part-time high school mathematics teaching position currently.

I am very determined and driven to complete my education in the field on Psychology and then move on the Medical School. Being a Psychology Major has taught me intensive research and presentation skills and has allowed me to be critical and analytic from a scientific point of view. Also, being a Spanish minor, I have come to be almost fluent in the language, with an extensive background in grammar, comprehension and literature. During the last 2 years I have tutored high school on introductory and intermediate Spanish.
I am quite fond of children and their amazing desire and ability to learn. I think that education is one of the most important aspect of a child's upbringing and any contribution that I can make would be very gratifying. I think children differ in their learning styles and I am flexible to work with children who are visual learners through diagrams, colors and charts ... read more

While obtaining my Bachelor's degree from the University of Missouri, along with being a competitive gymnast, I worked for the Total Person Program in the atheltic department tutoring and mentoring student-athletes in many subjects. I have a passion for working with children and watching them learn, grow, and succeed at tasks. I have 10 years experience coaching gymnastics and working with children from infant to high school age. I believe my love for helping children, my education, and tutoring and mentoring experience would make me a great fit for helping your child succeed.
I feel that all children have the capacity to learn but may not always thrive in a typical classroom setting. They may feel lost or intimidated in a large class and are not able to speak up and express their questions or concerns. Individualized attention through tutoring can give the child confidence in ... read more

I am committed to an interdisciplinary approach to teaching, and all my courses are structured with this in mind. Rather than simply lecturing in class, I strive to cultivate an interactive environment in which students from diverse backgrounds can express themselves freely while learning to engage in meaningful ways.I feel that it is my responsibility to uphold these standards and to encourage and challenge students to work to their potential.
Teaching has been an important part of my training at University of Missouri-Columbia and I believe my background would be of utmost importance for this position. I have had considerable undergraduate teaching experience; I have taught discussion and laboratory sessions for courses in General Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Organic Chemistry, in addition, I have also supervised undergraduate research for several students. In the summer of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I find great joy in teaching children. I believe, if given the right resources and instruction, every child is capable of learning and understanding any subject.

More About This Tutor...

I have a BS in Child development with a minor in phsychology and I was teaching for Head Start back before I finished my degree. I have since finished and I am looking to expand my range. I love math and it just comes easy for me. I have a background in Engineering and Calculas.
I first make learning fun and exciting. As in past experience each child learns diffently and I need to be able to adapt to this. I first see what the level of the child is then work on the next step and help make sure the new level is learned as well as the old level is still maintained.
