...in music performance. I have four years of experience as a French horn teacher, working with students in grades 6-12. I enjoy the variety of teaching these different subjects.

...taught courses in English, History, and Humanities. I have taught at schools all over the country, and at both single sex and co-ed institutions. I have also worked as Director of a college Writing Studio.

I also have experience with test prep, including the SAT/ACT and entrance exams for post-college...

...between each school subject (even standardized tests, which require critical thinking!) and a student's goals, and it's usually bigger than it first appears. A star athlete doesn't just need to pass English to graduate; she needs to be able to write a well organized and error-free letter. In time, I'd hope to become the kind of tutor a student wants to impress, and whose tips and tag lines come to mind at unexpected moments even...

...around with people, but also know when to be serious. I believe that incorporating humor into learning can make the experience much more enjoyable, and therefore more effective. It's easy to spark an interest when learning becomes fun! I gained a lot of experience tutoring while in high school - from helping friends with homework to teaching workshops on SAT Math. I've noticed that a lot of students aren't struggling to understand a concept, but rather...

...VA for 12 years. I have experience tutoring students in math, reading, writing, and organization/study skills in the upper elementary grades. My personal interests are running half and full marathons and showing our Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy in local dog shows. I like to travel whenever possible. When I was in the military, I was a Korean linguist, so learning new languages is an interest of mine. My students tell me that I am extremely patient...

...to present the material that way for you. Everyone has the ability to become knowledgable and smart in all areas, if the information is presented in a way that they can understand. I hope to help you do just that! As a mom of 3 young boys, all 6 years old and younger, and a full time college student, I don't have many hobbies. I enjoy working out (mostly weight lifting), bible study, reading books,...

...in that subject. My school background is rough since I was born with a hearing disability. I was not the best academically, but I was involved in soccer. This hardship increased due to procrastination. Procrastination is a nasty habit that haunts everyone. That is more reason why I should tutor others. I have a deeper understanding why students struggle in their subjects. I know where the roadblocks are and how to overcome them. I no...

I believe this would transfer well in communicating with clients. ... Understand the student; then you can...
