Microsoft Office Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Whitt, TX

I love teaching and I love to see the spark in a child's eye when they finally understand a subject they have struggled with! I am a certified special education instructional support aide for an elementary school in northwest Fort Worth. During the school year, I work in Resource and Content Mastery with special education students that are in general education classes but need additional instruction in Reading, Math, and Language Arts. I also provide additional assistance through Content Mastery to students in Science and Social Studies. I am currently pursuing a second Master's degree in Education with a specialization in Special Education as well as pursuing teacher certification through Texas Teachers. Although I work with all levels of students, my specialty is working with children with Autism and behavior issues.

While completing my degree, I worked in the math department as a tutor. I often had several students with various subjects simultaneously. It was a challenge to constantly switch topics, but I apparently did it so well that I almost had a regular class that showed up every time I was on duty. Several students told me that I explained things on a level they could understand as opposed to the high-level language the professor used. I have also done private tutoring since then. I generally work through an example while explaining. Then as the student works the problems, I instruct by asking prompting questions with decreasing frequency until the student can complete problems without any assistance.

Over the past 20+ years, I have worked with students from Pre-K through the college level. The commonality that I have found is that reading is the one thing that students need to be able to do and do well in order to be successful. Since reading is fundamental life skill, I chose to become a certified reading therapist using the Phono-Graphix Method of instruction through Read America. I have worked as a professional tutor and private instructor for the past five years and love what I do! Although my speciality is reading instruction, I also tutor elementary mathematics, social studies, science, and all levels of language arts. My teaching style is best described as eclectic. While I am organized and focused, I vary my instructional methods to incorporate diverse activities and materials to engage and interest students.

As a child of an Air Force pilot, I have always loved aviation. I strived hard in school to get the best grades to one day become a “Rocket Scientist” and design the plane of the future. In high school I was known for my good grades, and passed on my knowledge by tutoring my fellow classmates and students in earlier grades. After high school, I graduated from one of the top Aerospace schools in the country, and went on to work for a few companies: two small businesses and a large government contractor. I have completed many diverse programs successfully. When talking with friends about my career endeavors, I found myself giving more of a teaching course on how stuff works (e.g. planes, missiles, GPS, etc). I have since realized my passion for teaching, and that tutoring allows me to obtain both goals in my life: teaching and engineering. I believe the true way to teach is to make a conne

I enjoy the wonders of discovery and assisting others with master concepts and practical logic that helps them in every aspect of their lives. Tutoring is not so simply as to aid a child in finding the answer or getting a college student to pass the examine. It is truly the disciplined approach to knowledge and truth that allows one to branch into new facets of understanding and truth. To tutor means to assist another in seeking real truth and understanding that will allow success and confidence to build. I have a passion for language and rhetoric. Words, truth, knowledge, and exploration have marked my academic career. I studied with two colleges during my Associate years in order to obtain lessons in Japanese. I took my passion for language into history with pursuits in Latin and Greek while attending the College of Saint Thomas More. I have offered consistent and helpful tutoring to y

Since childhood, I have always had a passion working with children. Coming from someone who had a tutor, I have a first-hand experience of the impact a tutor can leave on a child. I believe that every child has the capability of learning; the process to reach their potential for each child, however, is different. I am a very committed, patient and open-minded person who has a positive outlook on any situation. No matter a students’ academic situation, I have full confidence that it can be improved or made better through proactive responses. My tutor made an impact in my life because she gave me hope and never gave up on me. I want to be able to share this experience and make the same difference in other students’ lives. I am recent graduate from Texas Christian University (TCU). I majored in Entrepreneurial Management, a program ranked 18th in the nation. Entrepreneurial Management has h

I have learned most people achieve best in a fun and interactive environment. Learning games, role modeling, flash cards, art, and music are a few tools that are used. Another important component is trust and teamwork. Once students know you have their best interest at heart, trust is built. In a one-to-one situation, a teacher must emphasize teamwork. I have a BS from LeTourneau University in Business Management, and have more 48 college hours in Science, English and History. I have been accepted in an Alternative Path to Certification program with A+ Texas Teachers. I have completed the 80 hours training required by Texas and passed the NCLB tests: TExES Science 116 (4 -8), TExES Special Education 161 (EC-12), and the Arizona Biology 07 (9-12). My classroom experience was acquired during 3 1/2 years of teaching science in a high risk high school in Phoenix, AZ. At the school I help

My goal as an educator is to create an environment that is safe, secure, and comfortable for each child and to encourage and allow their learning to grow through curiosity. I strongly believe that every child deserves the right to a fair education and should be given the chance to reach their full potential, and I make it my mission to ensure that each individual child knows there is no limit to his or her own success. I also believe it is very important that each student recognizes his or her own uniqueness’s and embraces them. I am patient, kind, nurturing, and most importantly determined! My objective is that each child will leave these sessions feeling confident, capable, and prepared. I attended Texas A&M University and obtained a BS degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I currently teach kindergarten in a Title I district which has provided me with the opportunity to work with child

I have never believed in or practiced the lecture as a form of instruction. Rather I apply a program of hands-on repetition, a "walk me through it" approach whereby the student demonstrates what has been retained and understood and where we need to apply some more time. I continually review what has been learned so everything stays current and fresh in the mind. I have found that most students retain more when humor is interjected through the instruction period and how what has been learned is applied to every day life. Praise and commendation of a job well done is vital to the continued interest of a student. I have never met anyone who has not responded positively to praise. As a business professional I was continually called upon to make presentations to corporate personnel, owners, propert management personnel, and other interested parties. I made these presentations interestin

My degree in Engineering has given me plenty of experience in math and science. I have also had graduate courses in Physics and Engineering. As a graduate student at UNT, I instructed several physics and astronomy labs and learned first hand what teaching can be like. I have since felt that teaching math and science is a career I want to pursue. I have always had a passion for learning, and helping others learn. In middle school, High School and College, other students came to me for help with assignments. Knowing what it is like to be a student, I try to see from the students point of view. Each student teaches me their own way to learn. I enjoy learning and hope that I can share that joy with others.
