I have an unparalleled amount of patience.

The roles of the teacher and student are one in the same. I go into teaching knowing that I am not the end all shepherd of information but I am going to give all I can at being as clear, concise, informative, and objective.
My first teaching experience was in high school teaching at after school programs about basic economic principles that may apply to kids. That was my first time understanding that I have potential to assist others in grasping topics. In my college career, I found myself teaching people everything from music to proper uses of tense/grammar. It was there that i learned that you really only learn a small fraction of what you need to help you in life in the classroom. The rest must be learned on your own or with some one-on-one counseling. I know that any information can possibly be simplified and made clearer with a little time and attention to towards looking at t ... read more

Study Skills is one of my top subjects!

My experience comes from study groups and my own time as a student. Every student is an individual with different strengths and styles of learning. I believe building on the students strengths and adapting material to be presented to students to best match their leaning styles allows for the most success.

A Little Bit About Me...

My master's thesis was on auditory learning and the Theory of Multiple Intelligences. I believe every person can capitalize in learning if they know what type of learner they are. I believe in finding out what types of learning styles work best for an individual and developing strategies to enhance that persons learning potential through use of these strategies. I work on building self image and self esteem as well as academic advancement.

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach to teaching is comprehensive and challenging. I believe in getting to know the strengths and weaknesses of my students and customizing the curriculum for optimum growth. My approach is to empower the students to achieve by teaching them the steps to attacking a challenge and working them trough it. Then I believe students have the support and stamina to increase the rigor of their curriculum. Once they realize how much they can achieve and that they have the tools and support, they are much more likely to take on the challenges set before them.

I enjoy working with children, and believe that all kids have the ability to achieve anything. As long as their mentors can give them an extra boost to understand certain concepts their ability to accomplish their projects and earn exceptional grades are endless. My teaching style is to guide them through the learning process and to make sure they have a firm grip on their subjects when we complete our tutorial.
I started my college career at Drake University as a Mass Comunications major. I changed schools and recieved a double major in Business and Economics. I have 3 kids 15,11,10 and have helped them extensively, and all are excellerated students. I enjoy helping kids understand their subjects and obtaining the power to master their learning potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is to captivate the student's interest with hands on activities that demonstrate academic concepts. After the student understands the concrete real life connection, then we move into the abstract representation of the same concept in print. Each student has strengths and weaknesses that I try to understand and adapt lessons to their unique method of understanding. I also find it effective to teach students with familiar vocabulary that they already understand and then build new ideas upon their previous knowledge. I find it best to communicate with other educators in each child's life to compliment the focus of other studies using the same ideas, but seeing them in different ways.
I am a professional teacher, tutor, and educational assistant for more than twenty five years of experience in international schools, public and private U.S. schools. I have teaching ... read more

My teaching experience actually extends back to high school where not only did I tutor fellow students in math and chemistry but I also taught swim lessons as my part time job. More recently I tutored students in the chemistry study center at the University of Washington. Furthermore, anyone who attends a University knows that being a successful active learner involves studying in groups where you teach others and others teach you.
As a teacher or tutor it is very important to realize that everybody learns differently. Because of this you have to strive to find the way your student learns and utilize creative ways to make sure the student understands what you are teaching to them. In my experience I have used pictures, words, books, varying explanations, and multiple examples to teach.

A Little Bit About Me...

I strive to help the child discover the potential that is in them. I do this by patiently and calmly introducing methods and activities in a fun light environment. Positive reinforcement is paramount to a student that feels unsure or that is falling behind. I have also found that in order to help the child you first must get a firm grasp on how that child learns and how the material make sense to them. I have been amazed by some of the small things that can be changed in order for a student to excell and grow in confidence. I would be honored to share with others what I have been blessed to discover through my child.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with students of all ages in a variety of scenarios, but my most recent experience is teaching as an adjunct professor at Eastern Washington University. My course was "History 110: The American Experience." I had 52 students and we met Monday through Friday. I received excellent reviews and several of my students wrote to me or came to my office to tell me that I helped make history interesting for the first time. I have a passion for education and I take that passion into working with students. My degrees in history and theology, combined with my professional experience, have allowed me to learn how to research well, write properly, and present information in a stimulating way.

In addition to my education and work experience, my teaching style derives primarily from my experience as a High School football coach. Coaching at all levels from middle school to high school has given mea unique perspective on seeing how different students learn and comprehend things. My particular style would most likely be described as a learn by doing approach by finding connections to similar situations and working through them.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is my passion and I can't imagine doing anything else. I love my students and they love me because I provide hands-on, kinesthetic, and rememorable lessons. My patience and understanding makes it easy for children to feel comfortable with me; therefore, they are more open to working with me and truly grasping the standards they must learn. My method of teaching centers around talking with the student, watching his/her habits, and learning how they learn best-visually, auditorially, kinesthecially, etc. My goal is to help students retain the study skills and habits they need to transfer over to the classroom independently.
