Pat

College English Tutor • +10 Subjects

I am an elementary school teacher who is passionate about helping children to thrive by having fun, successful learning experiences. I believe that all children are naturally curious, want to discover and eager to learn more. My role as an educator is to remove any obstacles that may be hindering this natural desire and to allow my students to learn at their own pace and in their own way. From my perspective, tutoring is much more than helping a student to pass school exams. It is about fostering children's natural love of learning so that they become lifelong learners; those who choose to go on learning-in all areas of their lives-even when they are not in the classroom or taking formal course work. I create a nurturing learning atmosphere where children feel supported and respected and where they know that it is okay to make a mistake while learning. I am dedicated to providing children with the support they need to navigate through areas that are challenging as well as helping them to focus on their strengths and possibilities. I am committed to ensuring that all of my students acquire the knowledge, skills and self confidence they will need to achieve their goals and dreams and to reach their full potential. If I am teaching a student who seems to have temporarily "lost" his or her love for learning, I strive to find out why. In my experience, I have found that many times it due to being taught in a system that expects all children to learn in the same way and at the same pace. I believe that all students need to be instructed WHEREVER they happen to be in the developmental learning process. When a program is designed to fit the student, instead of trying to fit the student into a predesigned program, learning usually occurs. I personalize each student's tutoring program. I formulate lesson plans and activities that are specially customized to each student's needs, learning style and personality. I understand that each child is unique and I want to inspire that child to become all that he or she was born to be.That's my passion and philosophy of education in a nutshell. As for my credentials, I graduated magna cum laude from Northeastern State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I have 28 years of classroom experience during which I have taught grades first through sixth. I completed 30 hours of professional development training in the nationally acclaimed reading training program, Literacy First Process, which qualified me to be serve my school district as a literacy tutor as well as an instructor for their Summer Academy Reading Program, where I successfully assisted students in acquiring the reading and math skills necessary to comprehend grade level material.As for my personal interests, I am a dog lover with two affectionate fun-loving Shih Tzus, named Frasier and Myles. I enjoy outdoor activities, games, listening to music, playing the piano and guitar, dancing and reading motivational and inspirational books.

Craig

ACT English Tutor • +43 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Wake Forest University where I received my Bachelor of Science in Mathematical-Economics. I began tutoring Economics through my university's tutoring center, but soon branched out to local junior high and high schools where I focused on tutoring Math. While I always enjoyed tutoring undergraduate students, I found great satisfaction in teaching Math to struggling teenagers. From my experiences, I learned that anyone can tackle basic mathematical ideas if they are given proper patience and instruction. Furthermore, I have learned that every student has a unique style of learning. My tutoring philosophy embodies this notion and I strive to tailor my lessons to fit each student's academic strengths.Having been successful in my academic career, I have learned exactly what it takes to achieve great test scores and high grades. I believe these methods are easy to follow and I am more than willing to share!

Susan

Algebra Tutor • +23 Subjects

I have been a paid tutor almost every year since I was in 3rd-grade fractions. Even when I was a child, parents and teachers recognized I had a gift for figuring out where another student's thinking went astray and for devising a way to correct the problem. I am aware that everyone learns differently, and I have great patience to determine what the student's learning style is and what techniques work best for that person. Many people have told me that I was the best tutor they ever had. Even when I have a full-time programming job, I always find someone to tutor in some subject. It's what I do best, and it makes me feel like I am improving someone else's life.I am currently starting a new business writing mobile apps for iPhone/iPad.I have a Masters in Math and a Masters in Geophysics. My Bachelor's is in Math, and I have the equivalent to a Bachelor's in Computer Science. I also have 5 Associate degrees: Spanish, International Language, Mobile Computing, Web Development, and Computer Programming. I lack one or two courses having an Associate in English. I should be the poster child for life-long learning.My GRE score in math was 770 when it was on an 800 scale.I have 15 years' experience programming computers and 14 years doing tech work and training individuals to use their computers and Office products like Word and Excel, as well as QuickBooks accounting package. I taught college Calculus for 4 years, college Algebra and Computer Concepts for 3 years, college computer language classes for 7 years, and high school math and computer science for 2 1/2 years. I tutored for Oxford Learning Center for 1 1/2 years: ACT/SAT prep and homework support, mostly high school math, English, and Spanish. I have tutored on my own for 30+ years on any subject that I knew how to do, mostly math and computer science. I'm pretty fluent in Spanish, and I love to teach it. I'm a photographer, so I'm great at Photoshop and Lightroom, and I like to play with Illustrator. I also can tutor Physics, Physical Science, and English, especially English for non-native speakers.I've tutored a lot of students for SAT and ACT prep and a few of the other standardized tests. I can teach all parts of the exam, but I'm best at math, and I can usually gain the most overall points in math because, let's face it, a person's vocabulary is not going to increase a extensively in the few remaining months before they take the exam, and that's the key to a good score in Reading or English.I've taught classroom math (pre-Algebra through Calculus II) and computer science in both high school and college. I have an Oklahoma Teaching Certificate in Intermediate and Advanced Math, Computer Science, Earth Science, Physics, Physical Science, Spanish, English, English as a Second Language, and Mild/Moderate Disabilities.I enjoy teaching college students, adults who want to learn so they can help their kids learn, and high school kids. I am good with middle school students if they really want to learn, and I'm good with gifted or highly motivated elementary students. I am also quite good with any age person who speaks another language but wants to learn English.I home-schooled my oldest son 4th-8th grade in all subjects because teachers and psychologists didn't believe in his ability to learn; he has Asperger's form of autism, ADD/ADHD, and a severe visual processing disorder. His teacher in 4-year-olds and a pediatrician both said he'd never learn to read, and the pediatrician and a psychologist both said he'd never be able to leave home or to put him in a group home. His SAT scores: a perfect 800 Reading, 700 Math, and 790 Writing, and he was his school's first National Merit Scholar Finalist based on his PSAT scores. I can't take all the credit for that, but I'm sure that at least part of it is due to my tutoring.I am uniquely qualified to tutor students with learning differences and have the patience and talent to do so (besides my son, I have taught two mentally challenged girls to read and tutored College Algebra and Spanish to students through the Disabled Student Resource Center at Tulsa Community College, including one student who was deaf, two were blind, one had cerebral palsy, and one had a brain injury).For 4 years from 4th to 8th-grade, I tutored two homeschooled brothers in middle school so that they could be in a high-level tennis program. The younger one initially had some serious problems with English (it was not his first language) and with study skills and test-taking. Within a year, his scores in all subjects had come up above average, and by the next year, he was above 85% in every subject.I don't give up when I hear someone says that teaching someone something is hopeless, and I don't let my students give up or their parents.I live to see that lightbulb go on in a student.
