My comments on tutoring Government : As an avid reader and substitute teacher, I have had developed both the knowledge and proficiency to aide students. Additionally I have received training for instruction in this area in my pursuit of a K-8 teaching license.

Experience overview: 5-years experience as a substitute teacher, worked as a tutor for one year, volunteered to assist teachers in the classroom, and is in studying to become a licensed elementary teacher. Details I am currently in my fifth year of substitute teaching. The students have come from a wide variety of backgrounds and with varying degree of academic skills. I have had taught in all subject areas. In the classroom I strive to be well-prepared, organized, engaging, and accessible.

One teacher recently sent the following in an e-mail: "Thank you for doing such a wonderful job with my class! I have heard so many positive comments from both students and staff members about what they observed during your time in the classroom. I wil ... read more

I have taught and served as a principal at parochial schools for 15 years, teaching every subject in every level in grades 4-8, and English in grades 9-12. In addition, I have served as an adult educator for 6 years. My particular areas of interest are in technology, language and reading, history, and logical thinking/essential skills. Much of my life I have provided tutoring services to students in my schools, helping them to achieve their highest potential. I have had documented success in helping students to improve their levels of academic success and self-image as active and independent learners.
My teaching style spans two decades, and many hundreds of students. In that time, I have learned that individual students have individual learning styles. Therefore, my teaching style would be dependent upon the student and his or her needs and current state of mind. When possible, I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In approaching the learning environment as a College Graduate with my MA in Criminology and Statistics, I seek to do for my students what numerous professors did for me when I was an undergraduate: Instill a passion for sociology, criminology, and statistics along with a desire to master these disciplines so as to best share it with others. Further, I offer not only academic knowledge, but experience in teaching many disciplines, such as sociology, criminology, statistics, writing, and analytical research methods.
To reach the students and motivate them to learn takes enthusiasm both for sociology and for teaching. When students see that I am passionate about the discipline and energetic and excited about teaching, this rubs off on them and is conducive to their learning. I am an active and thorough lecturer, but at the same time I seek to involve the students as much as possib ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an English teacher in Incheon, South Korea, I prepared lesson plans on a daily basis and led in the classroom to foster a creative, fun, and educational environment. I chose to go to South Korea to explore a new culture, travel, and learn a new language after finishing my BA in Political Science (International Affairs) and Global Studies, with a dual concentration in Russian Languages and Literature and Southeast Asia Area Study. I have extensively edited English as a second language essays at the TEFL level as well as worked as a native speaker for ESL dialogue tapes.
I have a lot of fun working with children of all ages. My goal is to increase your child's confidence in his or her writing abilities, as writing well is the key to academic and career success. Learning to write should be relaxing and fun, not a chore, and I am certain my love of writing will help your child l ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my high school years I would volunteer to help children through various charities and church. When I attended college I became an Early Childhood Education major and volunteered in preschool and elementary schools. During my Student Teaching in Des Plaines I was in complete control of a Kindergarten classroom and later a 2nd Grade class. After graduating I began working in a daycare where I created activities for children as young as 3 years old and activities and homework help for elementary students as old as 13.
When I am teaching I am very patient and try to organize the lesson or my assistance in steps. I'll have the child read the problem or question, ask what they know about it, see if they understand the question and proceed. The patient style helps me see what the student's strengths and weaknesses are so I know what they need to practice and focus on. If the c ... read more
