My comments on tutoring Government : A proper understanding of how our government is supposed to function is important. A citizen can not participate as fully or in an informed manner if they do not underestand their government

I have taught in a wide variety of educational settings. These settings include working in the public schools With Educable Mentally Challenged students,Multilingual classrooms and several self contained elementary classes.I have taught in educational cooperatives, Homeschooled my own children up to college and tutored. I have worked one on one with students who are Gifted , Gifted LD, mainstream, imigrant/ culturally distinct. I love seeing people soar like Eagles
I work best in one on one or small groups. I am capable with larger groups as well. My favorite approach is the Charlotte Mason approach. I have worked with a wide variety of Educational Philosophies/Methods and will draw from them when needed.

American Sign Language proficient

American Sign Language proficient. Creative Arts, world history, political science, English and literature. I am a Child of Deaf Adults and have 31 years of sign language experience. I scored a 3.4 on the educational interpreting performance assessment and am working toward a re-test for a higher score. Testing in a certification atmosphere is an obstacle for me even though I have the skills to excel.

More About This Tutor...

Caring and Loving. Visual, providing examples in a real-world context. Teaching in a style that the student understands best!
I graduated at second to the top of my High School Class. I have a 4.0 GPA with ASU. I believe in being strict about studying. I believe in taking education seriously. Why have to back track? Many people could easily get good grades without applying studying or being in class. I always worked very hard to organize studying techniques and times so I understand the challenges that students face a lot of times.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love school and I love to teach. I always find it personally fulfilling to pass on the knowledge I have learned. I like to use roleplay, verbal, and written practice to teach my students. I like to make the learning experience a pleasant one with my sense of humor as well.
I graduated from the University of Arizona in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in Business Administration. I am currently midway through my master's degree program at the University of Phoenix with a current GPA of 3.8.

I have tutored through the organization Literacy Volunteers in Flagstaff and Lake Havasu. Additionally, I tutored English in a refugee camp in Zambia, when I was with the Peace Corps. While living in Bangladesh, I tutored adults and children in English, as well as other subjects. I taught for three years in Bangladesh at International Turkish Hope School.
My teaching style is to make sure that those I am helping understand what is being talked about. If they do not, we will keep working at it until clear. Since all teaching ways do not work for all students, I try to figure out what would work best for those I am currently tutoring, so that they will succeed.

I have a BA in Psychology, MS in Zoology and BS in Computer Science. I have lifetime Arizona Community College certification in psychology, biology, ecology and remedial math. My experience with special populations includes: three years full-time on the Navajo Reservation; three years part-time at the SALT Center at the University of Arizona working with learning disabled students; and a hands-on nature camp for deaf middle-schoolers. My favorite experience has been the opportunity to design the curriculum, code the programs, and teach the student counselors for the U of A's Computer Science week-long summer enrichment program for teens.
My forte is science and math, which are often students' least favorite subjects, due to earlier difficulty. A solid basic understanding of these subjects is critical to being an independent, engaged adult; and it's just plain cool to understand ... read more

Each individual is different. Therefore, you have to know the person first in order to apply a teaching style. Age, gender, and subject matter are some elements that influence how a person learns. Some people learn visually, some people learn by practicing, some people don't want to learn. My style varies according to the individual and what he or she likes or dislikes. As a tutor my role can be from formal authority, demonstrator, facilitator and delegator. Key elements in the classroom: 1) facilitate interaction and 2) delivery of the content to student. The key is to listen to the student, listen to the feedback with a clear understanding of the goals that need to be accomplished for each class.
Results orientated individual that uses leadership to drive change without compromising quality. Consistency achieving goals through the understanding of learning process that involve p ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I'm a very passionate chemist who has experienced various real-world applications of chemistry hands on. My diverse experience on the subject would enable me to share my enthusiasm with anyone eager to learn. As a native Spanish speaker who went through the struggle of learning English as a second language and having taught ESL in Japan to various age groups, I am the ideal candidate for helping someone acquire the language skills they need. During my year in Japan, I worked teaching eight lessons a day. Each lesson was planned to meet the specific needs of my students so that we could target their weaker skills and approach the lesson from their level. I enjoyed seeing my students (aged three years to fifty years old) progress and master the material presented in each lesson. I enjoyed my teaching experience in Japan as much as I have enjoyed many years of teaching Sunday school. ... read more

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

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

Over the course of my twenty-three years I have received an international education by way of inter-continental travel and attendance to a world-class university. I have spent much time in the volunteer and non-profit sectors, both donating my time to various kinds of community aid as well as researching aspects of those communities. Because of the broad spectrum of my educational experience, I have spent much time in various areas of study including: natural & Chinese medicine, anatomy, anthropology, sociology, psychology, dance, writing, photography and studio art. I have tutored students in English, writing, mathematics, sciences, dance and photography.
Having taught college English in rural China, I have found that I am extremely adaptable in my teaching style. I have the ability to precisely coordinate my teaching techniques with the background and needs of the student in orde ... read more

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 Academic Advising Coordinator at the University of Arizona, I interacted in a one-on-one capacity with students to develop their intellectual, academic, and career interests.
An understanding of the student and his/her background, strengths and weaknesses, and motivation is key to successful learning. This student-cen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.
