I have enjoyed working closely with students of diverse backgrounds and abilities as a Writing Consultant, ESL tutor, and Teaching Assistant. I've had the pleasure of working with students who were puzzling over the minutiae of how to properly format a senior thesis to APA format and nervous freshman approaching their first English paper with trepidation. I am a firm believer that the job of a tutor is to work with the student, not with their texts or problems. Our motto at Carleton's "The Write Place" used to be, "We work with writers, not with their writing," and I believe this is the attitude any tutor should take towards the process of tutoring: student first. As recent graduate of Carleton College (magna cum laude), my experiences in the diverse fields of English and Cognitive Science over the past four years have given me a deep appreciation and enthusiasm for the unique license a

Education means a change—a change that we acquire through a long and difficult process of learning, a change that makes us better people and makes our world a better place to live in. But education is not easy; it is something that requires some help and a lot of passion. I believe that my love to teach and sufficient knowledge of mathematics and science will help any child to succeed in his/her educational goals. My journey to the higher education started ten years ago at the age of 16 when I graduated from high school with honors and was accepted to Department of Law of the Belarusian State Economic University. As for now my educational background also includes BS in Biochemistry (pre-med) from University of Minnesota and I am currently pursuing Master of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering.

I believe that the purpose of tutoring is to help students help themselves, or to assist or guide them to the point at which they become an independent learner. I know that the content knowledge is an essential ingredient for a tutor; however, to be truly effective, i believe a tutor must combine content knowledge with empathy, honesty and humor. In addition I demonstrate a caring attitude. Caring consists of being organized for the tutoring session, being punctual and gaining the students trust. I studied post secondary in high school and graduated in the top ten of my class. I was on the deans list every year of my college career. I was a teachers aid at the University of Minnesota for three years in the anatomy department. I was a the lead embalmer for the University and worked for the Anatomy bequest program.

My teaching style is mentoring, or sharing of knowledge, in combination with promoting the understanding of consequences. I strongly believe that learning can and should be an enjoyable experience for student, teacher and any other involved parties, such as parents. While some subjects may require rote memorization, I always try to explain the underlying reason, purpose and benefit of the material being taught. I also recognize the importance of listening and understanding the student's learning style in order to most effectively and efficiently obtain the desired learning outcome. I am an accountant by occupation, and my tutoring experience is primarily as a volunteer, because I love learning and helping others to learn. I gave beginning piano and music theory instruction to a student who went on to become a professional flutist. I also taught beginning piano and music theory lesso

As a recent Liberty University graduate having earned a B.S. in Multidisciplinary studies (emphases in Education, Counseling and Computer Science), and several years teaching experience, I offer students excellent academic support. As a tutor you will find me creative, friendly, motivating, and encouraging. I feel it is important to not only assist in academic challenges, but also organizational and study skills. My goal as an educator is to help your child grow to be a successful, independent student - one motivated from within. Learning should be fun and engaging; a necessity for effective learning. Because each student has unique academic needs, I prefer to reach students on their level with a differentiated approach. Lesson plans I create are based on students' strengths, weaknesses, and learning preferences. My goal for students is that they experience learning in a way that builds

I have just completed my master's degree combining courses from both biology and anthropology. My thesis concentrated on awareness of nature and conservation education in a rural community of Costa Rica. I have also gained considerable experience as a teaching assistant at SDSU for the last 2 years. This allowed me to create and present lectures for undergraduate students, proctor exams, grade research papers and other assignments and interact with students. I truly enjoy helping people learn and feel that I have excellent skills in teaching and student advising. It has been my experience, both as a student and a teacher, that people learn best with positive reinforcement and patience. When assisting students I make it my goal to explain the subject matter step by step and to avoid confusion.
