More About This Tutor...

An understanding of the student and his/her background, strengths and weaknesses, and motivation is key to successful learning. This student-centered approach has gained favor in recent years, and using this approach in an interactive way allows the student to develop critical-thinking skills at an optimal pace.
As a graduate student at the University of Chicago, I was responsible for leading introductory core Biology labs, which covered an array of concepts in biology, statistics, computer usage, and experimental design. Because lab reports were frequent requirements, I also was able to improve skills as a writing tutor I had already developed as a writing tutor (paid student position) in the Writing Lab at Towson University. I also have taught a remedial study- and life-skills course for students on Academic Probation at the University of Arizona. Finally, in my capacity as Acade ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of the University of Arizona with a BA in English and a minor in History. I am passionate about writing and creativity in general. Many years of taking upper level English classes have given me much confidence in my paper writing and editing ability. In addition to all of this, I love to write creatively (especially poetry) in my free time.
I have always felt very comfortable working with children. I previously worked as an after school teacher at a private middle school and ended up having a great relationship with all the kids. I am easy going and patient and feel myself to be someone that can bring the most out of people.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching Style: When the school busses arrived in the morning at Drumlin Farm, I would always welcome the visiting pupils with great enthusiasm. I would determine what the boys and girls already knew, or thought they knew, and what they would like to learn. Then we would go off to have a joyous and educational time learning about, and milking the cows, collecting and scrambling eggs, or planting pumpkin seeds in the warm May soil. I still remember the inner city classroom teacher who remarked on how "Johnny", a boy who tended to cause trouble in the classroom, was now thoroughly engaged in the project, and eagerly helping his buddies.
My Experience: In 1964, I graduated from Columbia College, in Geology. Subsequently, I worked in oil well drilling in Israel, and on a dam project in New Jersey. After earning an MA in Art Education, at Brooklyn College in 1975, I helped found the Wal ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have performed tutorial sessions on arithmetic subjects like algebra, geometry, and calculus. Also, I am familiar with the physical and life sciences like general biology, microbiology, genetics, general chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry. I make tutoring fun and "doable" even for the hardest of classes, according to my students. I have tutored several students who have struggled through anxiety regarding the harder subjects of the math and sciences but successfully received the grade they set as goals in the end. I firmly believe that a good tutorial happens when the student is able to perform efficiently on his own without any further guidance.
I have always been interested in helping students like me who struggle in the math and science courses. As such, I have started tutoring during my high school days and armed with several years of experience, I intend to help m ... read more

I am an excellent tutor and will make sure my students have a thorough and complete understanding of the subject they are struggling in. I have a natural ability to break down and clearly explain the material to my students in a way that they will be able to comprehend and internalize. I believe all children have to ability to learn and master any subject just so long as it is explained to them in a way they can understand; if they are having trouble, the burden falls on the instructor not the student.
I am a graduate from the University of Virginia and was an Echol's Scholar and on the Dean's List, where I finished my B.A. degree in 3 years. I was at the top of my High School graduating class.

I do not believe in hierarchy. I think the teacher-student or tutor-student relationship should be one of equal footing and mutual discovery. This means asking questions together and seeking out the fundamental answers to questions. I think all children and adults deserve a place to learn about themselves and the world around them where they are free to ask any question and challenge any assumption. This does not mean I am a push over and cannot create structure in a lesson. I just strive to do it in a way that does not discourage creativity and authentic discovery about themselves and the world.
I attended college at three different schools, on athletic scholarship in two of them. I earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Philosophy and BA in Political Science. After graduating I spent one semester teaching sciences at an outdoor based alternative middle and elementary school just ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a student I studied languages, earning a degree in English and an extensive minor in French. During my time in college I spent innumerable hours tutoring both. Over the years I've had countless hours of experience teaching phonics, grammar, reading, writing, creative writing, and conversation. I've also taught and/or tutored elementary math and science, drama, music, and Chinese.
Each child is different. A good teacher helps each student meet their expectations while keeping the child interested in the subject matter. Each day my goal is the same, to get the most out of my students, and this can only be done when they are attentive and motivated. The best teachers I've had, and the one's I've gotten the most out of working with, have all had one thing in common; they cared about what they taught and even more so about those whom they were teaching.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is Socratic in method. I have learned a large variety of techniques to help teach some of the most basic to the most advanced concepts to a large audience of students. I like to mold my teaching style to fit with each individual student. As a teacher of special-needs and emotionally handicapped children, I have learned techniques that make me a formidable teacher in any environment, so long as I am familiar with the material. I work hard for my students, and am not willing to have them do anything that I would not do myself.
I attended Northern Arizona University, whereupon I fell in love with sociology. I have a firm grasp of basic and advanced sociological concepts, specializing in historical analysis and research methods. After school, I spent my time working temporary jobs, and found one that I thoroughly enjoyed. At Wyko I aquired a set of technical sk ... read more

Education is the cornerstone of life, and I strive to find ways to help students succeed.

More About This Tutor...

In college I was able to tutor children in reading and math at Tucson Metropolitan Ministries. After I received my bachelor's degree in ecology and evolutionary biology (minoring in science education), I wanted to teach youth in an alternative setting. I taught for six months at Lutheran, Retreats, Camps and Conferences in California. I gained experience in hands-on teaching styles and how to provide concrete examples for abstract ideas. This past three months I have been substituting with Tucson Unified School District. This experience helps me to see a wide variety of teaching styles and classroom management techniques. I am also a Director of Youth Ministries at Desert Skies United Methodist Church, where I get to interact and teach youth and where I am also able to provide them with healthy activites outside of school.

It is important to recognize that every individual is unique and learns differently. Some need to hear lectures and others need to be 'hands on' and do the project themselves. I have taught a multitude of different ways depending on the individual. Again, I thrive on my students successes.
I have been both a teacher, substitute for elementary and full-time for middle school, along with having a career in the accounting and bookkeeping venues. I enjoy people and thrive on their successes. One of my lifetime desires is to not only following thru on the beginning steps, debits and credits, but to help people start a pretend company. My expertise is also with working with diverse groups of people. I have taught juvenile delinquents, and up to 60 different ethnic groups. I have a full degree in Elementary Education, and extended courses for accounting with accreditation for ... read more
