Stephanie

Elementary School Tutor • +20 Subjects

I have been an educator for over 25 years. I started my career as a Special Education teacher and am now currently a High School Principal for a small Private Special Education school. Although I am no longer in the classroom I love helping students with their class work and seeing the light in their eyes when they realize they just grasped a new concept or solved a new math problem.I earned a Sixth Year Degree in Educational Leadership, Master's Degree and Bachelor's Degree both in Special Education from Southern Connecticut State University.I love using a hands on approach to teaching and meeting students where they are. It is my goal to take students to their goal level at their pace however quickly or slowly that maybe.When I am not working I love to be outside in the warm weather with my family or scrapbooking memories of the past. I enjoy walking my dog and going to the beach.

Kari

ACT English Tutor • +19 Subjects

I have been teaching English and writing courses for many years. I have a Master's degree in English and a Bachelor's degree in English Education. I earned my first degree at the University of Mary in Bismarck, ND. After graduating with my undergraduate degree I taught high school for two years in Fargo, ND and then decided I wanted to do something different. I applied to grad schools and was accepted to Seton Hall University in South Orange, NJ. I moved to New Jersey where I went to school and taught for them while they paid my tuition for grad school along with a small stipend. I lived in Jersey for a year and a half and then moved to Brooklyn, NY. I lived there for another year and a half. I missed MN and decided to move back in 2005. I have taught students from 12 to 60 years of age, different cultures, skills and backgrounds; in all areas of English, reading and especially writing. I am passionate and get to know my students. That is partially why I am successful in helping them to achieve their goals and go beyond expectations! Tutoring and teaching is a noble profession and I take pride in being an educator. I will not let a student leave feeling confused or frustrated. My students are successful and gain incredible knowledge of the subject and of themselves.I enjoy the outdoors and all MN sports . I am not the best fisher-person but love it, as well as camping (as long as the mosquitoes are friendly).

Nancy

Adult Literacy Tutor • +16 Subjects

Are you interested in my experiences teaching or tutoring experiences??? Would you like to hear the story of my backyard classroom when I was 10 years old? Naw! Boring! That is history.I have been teaching and/or tutoring since my student days at Eastern Michigan University. Topics included English literature, writing, and reading. For Middle School topics included social studies and language arts. For High School it was literature, reading and grammar. And for College it was tutoring students in a variety of majors.Washington State University provided a Master's in teaching adults. Those teaching experiences have been the best of all worlds and the worst.The best experience for a teacher or tutor is being granted the opportunity to help a person grow in his/her skills. Observing the growth in confidence cannot be beat as a best experience for any tutor.The worst experience for a tutor or teacher is watching a student struggle, but refuse help. If you are asking for help you deserve an award.My job as a tutor is to tackle with you that pesky topic that is presenting problems. And did I mention have a good time? If you want more background information ask for my resume. I am ready to work with you to improve your skills.

Lindsay

Advanced Placement Prep Tutor • +23 Subjects

I am Lindsay. I am an avid lover of language, literature, writing, learning, artistic endeavors, athleticism, nutrition, and enhancement of the mind through those pursuits. That being said, I’d like to share my passion and enthusiasm for learning with you.I have been a teacher for 6 years. My teaching experiences are as follows:- middle school children English in the United States as a classroom assistant- middle school children English in Mexico as a lead teacher- American and international university age students Spanish as a part time instructor- high school age students Spanish as a high school teacher- international adults English at a non-profit center in Syracuse, as a student-teacher- kids yoga classes as the lead teacher- adult hatha yoga classes, asana, pranayama, meditation as the lead teacher- high school girls volleyball,basketball and track coachMy idea when I am teaching is that I am a facilitator. That means that you know how to do everything, you just don’t know that you know. My job is to show you that you have everything you need to do it yourself. Therefore, I ask questions to guide you, and in time you will see that you do indeed possess the necessary mental forces to complete the tasks before you of your own accord!When dealing with language, I use the communicative language approach, and focus on instilling a student-centered learning environment. I both create and ask the student to take part in creating course materials and shaping course content to foster interest in both learning and participating in their personal learning progress. I attempt to create an environment where a student feels no fear to ask questions, and is able to verbalize and communicate, and also is able to travel outside the classroom and use what we’ve learned in authentic contexts. I closely monitor student progress, and also am more than open to emailing and meeting at the student’s convenience.As far as my personality goes, I am a very caring, silly, open-minded individual. I genuinely am concerned for the welfare of those around me, which is why I am a yoga instructor. I also love academic pursuits, which is why I hope to be a tutor for who ever needs assistance.

Leigh

Elementary School Math Tutor • +11 Subjects

I am a graduate of Western Governors University. I earned my Bachelors in Educational Studies in Oct of 2021. I also have a TEFL certificate that I attained in 2015 and have been teaching online since then to students of various ages, levels, and countries. While my main focus in tutoring is in ESL I like to help others in language arts and challenge myself in today's elementary math. I am a firm believer that everyone can learn, just that not all learn the same way. It takes a determined and knowledgeable leader to pave the way for learners to be able to start taking charge of their learning when they are ready. I enjoy traveling, visiting historical sites and family-friendly functions, reading select autobiographies, and learning new languages.

Angelica

Conversational Spanish Tutor • +18 Subjects

I am a university graduate with multiple degrees and a well of experience in teaching children, teenagers, as well as adults of different ages. I have been always been passionate about two things in my life: helping other people and learning so a career in teaching was perfect for me. I have always loved helping people from early on in my life and as I grew up I also came to understand that I loved learning new things whether it be from books or other people. These two things led me to a career in education and great experiences working with my students. The smile or sense of achievement I see on a student's face when they understand something for the first time or when they get a good result on a test or assignment is why I love my job with such a passion. My teaching philosophy is teaching every one of my students in a unique way depending on their strengths and weaknesses.My adoration for knowledge has taken many places. I earned my first Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education at the University of Michoacan Mexico and then I decided to earn another Bachelor's degree at the Governors State University as well as a Master's degree in Curriculum instruction in ESL. In addition; I decided to get a K-12 Bilingual Endorsement but I am currently not working toward any degrees. Therefore; I became a bilingual tutor of Spanish and English because I love everything about the Spanish language especially how it sounds, moreover, English has always been one of my favorite subjects to tutor because of its novels and poems. I can teach children from birth till the age of nine as well as adolescents. I like watching and playing soccer in my free time as well as listening to music.
