In the past, I provided education in Mathematics, English and Spanish to freshman, undergraduate students , and children.I also counseled on good studying habits, time management skills and the fundamentals of the particular subject. In addition, I assisted with tutoring eight students on a consistent basis and had a proven success evidenced by superior/ace results in all subjects taught. Lastly, I supervised and taught a student who missed half the semester and ensured that the individual aced the course.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Criminal Justice. I originally majored in English, as that is where most of my talent lies. I wrote several articles for my high school newspaper, have published poetry pieces, and edit reports and resumes regularly for a number of people.
I adapt my teaching style to the student. Every person learns differently; I generally try to find an entertaining way of teaching the material.

I am committed to your success

I have a unique educational background in wanting to be educated but obtaining a degree along the way. My classroom experience is board covering many disciplines and how they connect and overlap.

My appetite for learning only seems to increase as I age. I also have a broad range of work experience that is integrated into my academic experience.
My teaching style is adapted to your needs, the topic, and how you learn, so that you can integrate what you are learning at least long enough to pass the class

I believe every student can get it.

I have two years of experience as a GED tutor, and have graduated 12 students in that time. I have been a computer programmer for 40 years, including 18 years as a freelance programmer. I have dabbled in writing over the years, writing poems, short stores and vignettes. In the past three years I have begun focusing more on writing, and am 2/3 through a novel. I have studied communication, language and writing extensively on my own, and have written a grammar textbook, which I have used successfully with my GED students.
I believe in starting from the beginning and taking one step at a time, and not moving on to the next step until the current one is understood -- a surprisingly uncommon approach. I am very skilled at figuring out what a student isn't getting, and helping them get it, and I believe every student can get it. I am a very relaxed, easygoing person, and don't get stre ... read more

I began my career as a high school teacher teaching grades 9-12. My engagement with students at this level was highly satisfying; I loved teaching this age group speech and drama courses. After that I spent several years in a FT professional touring performance ensemble that performed for all ages in a variety of settings across the Midwest. Finally, for the last 15 years, I have taught a variety of college level communication and performance courses, as well as various writing classes. I help students become competent oral and written communicators. The expressive arts (e.g.,theatre and performance studies) is also a specialty. I work one-on-one with most of my students.
I love the give and take of interaction with students. My approach is learner-centered, which means that I see each student as an individual and strive to tailor our instructional exchange to meet the needs of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is simply to provide an environment that is conducive to learning – one which supports collaboration and teamwork, student-centricity, personalization, fun, and humor. I am committed to providing the highest quality education for my students. Each individual learns differently, and I have come to accept that I can't entirely please each and every individual in the classroom (especially when I have over 200 students). I have also come to accept that not every student will "like me". As an instructor, it is my role to present information in a way so students learn. I have realized that students learn, not because they think I am "cool", but rather because the information was presented to accommodate each and every learning style. Therefore, I try to use a variety of different mediums (e.g., visual, audio, etc.) when presenting the class material.
As the eldest dau ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of a Big Ten school, and a current master’s level student, I have had many focuses in school that I can teach in the tutoring setting. I also currently work in education as a tutor and a substitute teacher, sometimes as a child care worker. Subjects: political science, biology, math through pre-calculus, accounting, English, computer technology, and a few more. I have honed my writing and research skills through my experience in my master’s program, and through a year working as a full time staff writer for a health and wellness company. My teaching experience and family have aided me in developing a teaching style that appeals to the four different types of student learners.
My teaching methods vary depending upon the subject matter and the pupil’s preferences. I enjoy getting to know students and customizing their learning experience to the methods that will best se ... read more

As an educator, I have had many opportunities to work with various different students. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education and a master's degree in teaching with an emphasis in learning disabilities. I have taught secondary special education for 5 years, focusing on math, reading, and writing. I have also privately tutored students of all ages and abilities in math, reading, and writing. I have excellent success in helping students improve their skills, often beyond what is generally expected of them.
It is difficult for me to say which age of student I love working with because each student I have worked with from age 6 - 25 has been very rewarding. I am very patient and work diligently to find creative strategies and approaches to teaching. I believe that all children should be encouraged to meet their potential by gen ... read more

I have 20+ years experience in the computer field and I had a 3.0 average in general studies. I have a BS in computer science and an AAS in microcomputer technology. Most of my education was self taught beyond high school. I've also tutored and mentored school age children for approximately four years when in college. All math and science subjects were from high school from basic math to calculus, trigonometry, and basic geometry. Physical and earth sciences are also strong suites. I can also give students better study skills and memory retention techniques to aid in obtaining higher grades in K-12 and some post-secondary education.
My style of teaching is repetition of material focusing on specific areas where the student is having problems. One on one approach until the lesson is grasped by the student has proven to work more than group settings. Once the area of concern ... read more

The ultimate goal is for students to be able to learn without needing my help. Because mathematics builds on what is already known, I find what skills are already mastered and which ones need more practice. I work with students to help them to assess themselves so that they can be more effective learners and problem-solvers. I help students to find strategies that will help them to retain the understanding that they come to through their classroom experiences, meeting with me, and through the discoveries they make on their own. I try to ascertain what has caused the difficulty and try to problem-solve with them how the issue can be resolved. I also show students how they can prepare for future classroom lessons by previewing the material.
I started tutoring math as an 8th grade student, and tutored consistently for the next 10 years. I tutored math from 4th grade up through Calcul ... read more

In addition to tutoring in my home for fifteen years, I received a Summa Cum Laude for the quality of my Master's Thesis in Creative Writing, and was the only student ever to be asked to serve as the Interim Director of the Cleveland State Writing Center.

More About This Tutor...

I have a year of experience working with at-risk students as a high school reading intervention teacher in an urban school. At the beginning of the year, my students were reading at anywhere from a first grade to an eighth grade reading level. By the end of the year, some students had increased their reading by up to three grade levels. For my work as a sixth grade mathematics and social studies intern in Delaware, Ohio, I received the honor of Student Teacher of the Year from the Ohio Association of Teacher Educators. My years of tutoring experience helped me to become a successful classroom teacher. I have tutored students in first through twelfth grades in subjects ranging from reading to chemistry to ACT preparation.
My objective as a tutor is to increase students’ confidence in their ability to discover and understand the world around them. I immediately try to identify ... read more
