Each student should be treated as an individual, since each learner engages in learning, in his or her own, individual manner. A cookie-cutter approach to teaching, should be eschewed. Finally, learning should be deemed a lifelong pursuit; it should be my role as an academic tutor/educator, to ignite a greater measure of passion, for learning, within the hearts of my students, both present...

...experience. I love reading, going to movies, and discussing great books when they are made into movies! When I'm not reading or watching movies, I'm designing flowers for weddings and events, hanging out with my husband and our dog, and drinking LOTS of peppermint tea. Helping students meet and exceed their potential in school is something very near and dear to my heart, and I look forward to continuing that process as a tutor.

To me teaching is all about getting the light bulb to go on. People have different learning styles; the tutor's job is to determine the most effective learning style for each student.

...skills, all of which will serve the student going forward as an independent thinker and worker.

I think encouraging that first step is crucial, and it helps these lessons become ones that we remember years after their first introduction. Alongside the motivational factor, it helps to know that, if you are terrible at taking tests, that is totally okay! Not every personality type connects with tests well, and I try to explain...

...their goals. In many cases some students may just need a bit of help to succeed in a class. In other cases, a student may really be struggling and need an exceptional amount of help. In either case, I will do my best to assess what help you need and identify sources that I have that will help a student thrive. I am here to help either face-to-face or virtually, or both. What ever I...

...mine, and you can often find me reading my own books whenever I have time. I believe that a positive environment is the key to learning. When students are happy, safe, and enjoying their tasks, they acquire new information much more quickly and easily. It is my mission to always create this environment with my students and those I tutor. I have experience tutoring both elementary and middle school students in all subjects and have...

...in English from the University of Oregon. My teaching experience consists primarily of serving as a teaching assistant for six quarters at Portland State.

I have also taught in the classroom setting as an unofficial substitute and Teaching Assistant. I believe in reaching out to meet students where they...

...in English with Honors from the University of Texas and a J.D. from Lewis & Clark Law School. I loved school and continue to broaden my interests through classes and new experiences even with my professional position. I benefited from tutoring in various subjects including test prep, that was critical to my success. I also think editing is a crucial component to bettering one's writing skills and one-on-one feedback can greatly help.

...I pride myself on figuring out the unique style of learning that each student has, and then break down the material to enable him/her to enhance academic confidence and success. I encourage communication on both ends and believe that hard work and success on the part of the student should be rewarded in order to further reinforce the new learning behaviors.

Each student learns their own way and needs a different level of help, which is why I cater each lesson to the students specific needs and learning style. The right tutor can change the way one student feels about learning and accepting challenges.
