More About This Tutor...

Hi! I am a sophomore in high school and I love tutoring kids! I've done some tutoring before in my neighborhood, and at my school. They all seem to like my teaching style and all of the students I've tutored have reported better results. I do tutoring mainly because I love helping people and seeing them succeed under my guidance. Please reach out to me if you're interested!
I usually teach by reviewing the lesson that kids don't understand, but I'm open to changing my style according to each type of student!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked in many aspects of tutoring from being a lead teacher in a daycare classroom to my current job as a bilingual teacher assistant in an elementary school. I have held my current job for four years. I have worked with children with varying disabilities. I have also tutored college students in study and test taking skills, reading and comprehension, math, and English language arts.
I vary my teaching style according to what brings out the best in each of my students. It depends on what learning strategy works best for them.

I am a very hands-on instructor, being heavily influenced from the Montessori education I received. I believe that a child has to genuinely want to learn if they are to succeed, and the key is getting them excited about the topic, to make them see how it is relevant to them and their education. A teacher that can show a passion for their subject to a student will undoubtedly sew a seed of curiosity into the student.
As the first in my family to go to college, I had a high drive to achieve my goals of obtaining my degree at Grand Valley State University, as well as studying abroad in Tokyo, Japan. In addition to my wide degree of historical knowledge, I also served as an independent English Conversation tutor in Tokyo, Japan while I studied at the International Christian University.

Though my degree is in Music Therapy,I enjoy English and Reading as well. My past seven years working for Measurement Incorporated as a Reader/Scorer for 4th, 5th, 6th and 11th grade writing for several states. This has enabled me to gain an understanding of the writing skills at the elementary level. Therefore, I am most interested in tutoring elementary students in Language Arts.
I would offer a variety of book selections to the students. I would ask the child his or her interests and base the lesson around that as I believe we all learn better if the topic is of interest to us.

I believe everyone has the tools to succeed. The ability to recognize strengths and weaknesses, and to adjust accordingly, is what it takes to succeed. Everyone is an individual, and as such, everyone has unique learning techniques. I believe encouraging the natural curiosity the student is the best way to foster a learning environment. By encouraging curiosity an instructor can turn learning from a chore to do, into a lifelong activity enjoyed by the student. As a person who takes personal pride in their work, I would strive to provide the highest quality assistance to your student. I would be diligent in providing the best information and tools to enable your student to succeed.
Throughout my academic career, I have excelled in many subject areas. As a result of my academic success I graduated with a bachelor of science degree from Grand Valley State University in Natural Re ... read more

What more better experience then to start at home by helping my little brother and sister. For the past five years I have tutored my brother and sister in many different subjects. I have done math, reading, science,history. Basically all elementary subjects.I am Bilingual and speak both English, and Spanish fluently.
I try to make the subjects fun for them. For example i bring out cubes, candy, or fruits for math problems so they can visually see the mathamatical problem. If its science I try to make 3D projects so they can better understand, for example the solar system. I try to get there intrest so they can have fun and not be bored and feel like its a waist of time. I know everyone learns in different ways and I understand that because im the same way. Im very patient, and very easy going. My goal is to give them the education they need to succeed in life.

I believe that the teacher's most important job is to present material in a way that makes learning fun and interesting. Everyone learns best in different ways, and it is important to remember this when tutoring or teaching. Whereas some learn best with visualizations, others learn by listening. I love finding new and creative ways to present a lesson or concept. I have a passion for teaching and hope to be an educator for the rest of my life.
I have always loved teaching and working with kids. I have volunteered at a number of places that allowed me to exercise my ability to tutor and mentor children ages 5-17. Since high school, I have volunteered at a local preschool. This past summer, I spent time in Honduras teaching English at an orphanage. I have a very concrete understanding of English and Spanish grammar, and I have spent the last four years studying writing at Grand Valle ... read more

After having been a stay at home mother for many years I decided to go back to school and get a degree in education. I wanted to be able to teach children and use my knowledge and experience to help further their education and life skills. Although I did graduate with a degree in Language Arts I have not been able to gain employment in a school setting. During the last 15 years I have mentored many students through KIDS HOPE USA and while a youth leader at my church, thereby giving me many opportunities to interact with students. I have also been a substitute teacher in many locations throughout West Michigan.
I enjoy working with students of all ages and at whatever level of learning they are at. I believe that every child is capable of learning, it just depends on his/her style of learning. Having had a child with a learning style that was not the norm I understand the difficulty ... read more

Being no stranger to difficult classroom settings, I understand that ideal teaching conditions rarely exist. I enjoy to challenge of encouraging more distracted students to learn, and possess the compassion and patience to work with most students. If a teacher can earn a student's respect, which comes easier for a younger instructor such as myself, then positive reinforcement has a much greater impact on that student's motivation to learn. My experience teaching lends the skill to gain student's trust in confidence allowing me to achieve great things with any student, all of whom deserve positive roles models and passionate teachers.
I worked as a substitute teacher for a charter high school in St. Louis, MO directly out of undergrad. I taught most subjects including Biology, Chemistry, Algebra, History and Language Arts. I feel comfortable in my ability to teach most subjects ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 2003, I achieved a Bachelor of Education degree from Grand Valley State University. I truly enjoy working with students and assisting them in become successful in every area of their education. Currently I tutor students in Math and English and like challenging students to really think and work hard at accomplishing their goals. When possible I like to create lessons that are applicable to life skills or are something that is hands on.
I believe all students can be successful. I understand that all students learn in different ways and I enjoy looking for new ways of teaching subjects to students that they will be engaged in and truly understand. I like to meet with the students regularly to get an understanding of what their specific needs are or areas they are struggling with. I believe students need to be treated individually and given goals that we can reach to attain.

I would describe my teaching style as interactive. I love for my students to interact with their classmates, teacher and technology. I believe that students best learn from one another and my purpose is to provide the foundation first and guidance. I am a very energetic and outgoing teacher. My personality shines throughout my teaching style. Students are taught that their job is to learn and my job is to teach! I do not give up! If students struggle with a concept we work one on one or in small group. Failure is not an option in my classroom.
I am completing my first year of teaching in North Carolina in a third grade classroom. I have had the opportunity to design and implement lesson plans based on the North Carolina State Standards. I have also had to design lesson plans based on the needs of my students. I have also tutored students prior to my first year of teaching. I have w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a BA from Calvin College which has certified me to teach at the k-8 levels in social studies and liberal arts and have earned a Masters degree in Counseling Education (certified K-12)which has given me the ability to work wtih students who are difficult to motivate and achieve. During my years, I have gained a wonderful rapport with students of all levels (K-12) while working at Huntington Learning Center. My experience is with students of diversity in areas of culture, ethnicity, social, and a wide range of ability.
I know that students can work and achieve if the right kind of motivation is given. Each child has their own learning style and interest which needs to be taken into consideration when working with thenm and then to be taught in that mode and style. My goal for the student is to learn through motivation when the interest is used in the lessons which w ... read more
