Award-Winning Latin Tutors serving Woodbury, MN

...construct trees differently. These variations are slight but annoying. What is a semantic interpretation? How to construct truth trees. How to decompose a logical connective to a branching or non branching tree extension. How to determine when a branch closes. What is the significance of an open tree? What is the significance of a closed tree? How to check for consistency, equivalence, logical truth, logical falsehood. How to test for a valid argument from a...

...conversation is a huge part of a successful teaching/learning process. No one knows how the students learn better than the students themselves. I constantly check in with how students are doing, often before I tell them how I think they are doing. This constantly dialogue allows us to form a better connection and does nothing but allow me to teach and the student learn better. I want to know their goals, interests, hobbies, learning styles,...

...class determine whether those statements are true or not. 5. Giving students 30 seconds to compose a question, which is then asked aloud. 6. Having students suggest random "answers" and having other students pose appropriate questions. Reading: As teachers, we encourage students to read for general ideas, not details. This is, I feel, the logical and correct approach. The difficulty is that it is easier said than done, especially when one uses authentic materials designed...

...at a local K-8 school who were struggling with reading and writing. My student was thirteen years old, and most of the resources for his reading level were aimed at students much younger. In order to keep him engaged, I had to get creative. We would practice reading comprehension using the sports section of the newspaper, and did short creative writing exercises. I learned a lot about how to get students excited about subjects that...

...devoted to assignments and preparation, but no small part owes to the way my mind learns. My mind is suited to books and the classroom, and this is a convenience for which I am very fortunate.

I make it my priority to determine what methods of demonstration and motivation are best suited to every student I work with....

...way. My strengths (in school and tutoring) are in foreign languages including Latin and humanitiesexpect a very enthusiastic tutor especially if we are talking about Shakespeare!
