Praxis Exam Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Union Furnace, OH

I consider myself to be a "beginner" teacher as I have recently graduated college and received my license. I have spent roughly 500 hours in the field as a result of college course requirements, and I have successfully completed a 12 week internship (student teaching) experience. I have had the opportunity to work in many different subject areas and classroom settings with students of various backgrounds, ages, and learning styles. I try to take a hands-on approach to teaching when possible. I find it helpful to use varied and often unusual objects and materials when teaching a lesson; it tends to make the material more memorable. However I am not above using the standard pencil/paper/textbook approach when needed.

I truly love the field of education. I recognize that all students learn in different ways. I know certain teaching methods work for some students and not others. It is important to teach in several different styles. I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in Elementary Education. During my undergraduate studies, I was a substitute teacher for Delaware Community Schools in Muncie, IN. I have also tutored at Huntington Learning Center. I am currently working towards earning my Master's in Early Childhood Education.

I have a Master's Degree in Foreign and Second Language Education(TESOL--Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from the Ohio State University, and a Bachelor's Degree in French Language and Literature from Capital University. I am fluent in English and Mandarin, and proficient in French. I have had eight years of experience teaching English to students from different linguistic backgrounds (Mandarin, Japanese, and Portuguese), which not only has enriched my cultural understanding, but also has given me opportunities to learn new languages. If you need any help in English, Mandarin, or French, you should talk to me. I love teaching and working with children of all ages. The primary focus of my language instruction would be grammar and pronunciation--which is extremely important, because together they build the foundations of any language learning. I will also use games, songs,

I am a doctoral candidate finishing up my third year in the Department of French and Italian at The Ohio State University. My major is French, with a specialization in second language acquisition (SLA), and secondary specializations in modern French culture and French cinema. In addition to my studies, I also teach French within the Department. In my five years of experience, I have taught the first four levels of French, in addition to intensive versions that combine two of the levels together. During the summer of 2008, I taught algebra and geometry to 9th- and 10th-graders in the Upward Bound program at Columbus State. Outside of school I have been tutoring for seven years. I have tutored subjects such as math, English, ACT/SAT prep, and creative writing. I recently became involved with interpretation for a high-school student from Haiti for his Ohio Graduate Test (OGT).

Tutored throughout my college years the subjects: Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy and Physiology and Microbiology. My methods are rather traditional. I beleive that there is no way around hard work. I will explain the problems in many different ways in order for the student to grasp a particular concept. I also am a irm believer that the more problems a student does, the better they become in doing the material.
