Tutoring is about taking the confidence, knowledge, and techniques found in a session and applying them anywhere.I was raised a native Spanish speaker and I have a passion for learning and teaching languages. I am currently fluent in English and Spanish, conversational in Italian, and I'll be tackling Mandarin next. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Drama from the University of Oklahoma with an emphasis in Acting. I was lucky enough to attend OU on a National Merit Scholarship that covered my expenses almost entirely, so the National Merit qualification process is one that I deeply believe in and understand. Successful test taking is as much a product of understanding the test itself as it is the material being covered, and having one on one guidance in understanding how to take a test can markedly improve a score. An important part of gaining that understanding is working in the ways that each student learns best. In fact, I think that is one of the most fulfilling things about tutoring: finding the learning methods innate in each student and helping shape those instincts into tools for learning any material.Outside of academics I enjoy writing, recording, and playing music in a band, acting on film, tv, and stage, sketch writing and improv, teaching and playing guitar (along with a few other instruments), listening to NPR podcasts and audiobooks on road trips, traveling, martial arts, and a healthy amount of sports fandom.

To me, learning is exciting and fun! I aim to improve your student's scores AND their relationship with learning. I like to try a variety of teaching methods to find how your student learns best. I have gained my teaching expertise through eight years of teaching in every kind of classroom imaginable. I led an afterschool program and kids camp for five years we taught in the classroom, in parks, and online for K- 12 grade! I recently received my master's degree in American History from the esteemed University of Oklahoma. There I had the opportunity to teach history to college students. My specialties are history, government, reading, writing, creative writing, reading comprehension, performance arts, philosophy, study skills, and testing. I love teaching the humanities. I utilize many standardized materials for the student to practice with. I also like to become acquainted with the materials the student is using at school and bring these materials into our sessions. I believe the students build alot of confidence when they go into their classroom knowing that they have seen the material before. If you select me I will give you a call and we can discuss your goals for your child and I will rise to meet your expectations! I have always performed well in my classes in the humanities. I not only excelled in writing, performance, history, philosophy and such but I loved these subjects growing up and desire to give your student the same passion. I can't wait to meet you and your student!

Uniquely in the world, we are one country that enjoys many freedoms that others do not. We must use our luck to create a better place for the world, mold it to our values and beliefs through voting and activism.

Writing, history, literature and film are my passions. I enjoy helping people overcome the obstacles that block them from achieving academic understanding or from expressing their ideas. I take a “results based” approach to tutoring. I aim to know the student, build his or her confidence, and develop strategies and routines that assist a person in becoming an independent learner. I have a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Bard College and a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism from the University of Oklahoma. As an English teacher and literacy coach working across all grade levels, I have tutored and coached many types of students, including those who are highly motivated and those who sometimes struggle. I have worked with a wide range of age groups, from college students who were writing research papers or literary essays, all the way to fourth graders who need help breaking the barriers that prevent them from reading effectively. As a writer I have many techniques to assist students in learning to produce topnotch papers in any genre.I am an expert test taker. In 2005, along with other educators, I assisted the New York City Department of Education in developing curriculum to help teachers improve their own students’ test taking strategies. I know the tricks of how to do well when taking standardized tests. As a tutor, I work on establishing a solid base of fundamental test taking techniques.I have many interests outside of teaching and writing. I love nature, gardening and the outdoors; I bicycle and practice yoga; I love baseball; and I love to watch movies and listen to all kinds of music from hip-hop to jazz. I have also taught screenwriting and have directed a program in which students made video documentaries for high school credit.

For the past two years, I've been working with students from my university honors college to help improve their writing. My favorite part of the job is the variety of it: each day brings a different topic, a different assignment, sometimes even a different student. I love getting to hear their ideas and help uncover their unique voice and perspective. Helping that voice develop--getting rid of all the bad habits, fuzzy language, and grammatical confusion that get in the way of what you really mean--has always been a big part of my job. Whether we're working on a lab report, a history paper, a personal essay, or a book report, my goal is to help make not just better grades, but better writers. Good writing develops critical thinking and clear communication. It can take you a thousand different places.Right now, Im a tutor, an editor & writer for a magazine, and a student. Much of my time in college has been spent studying the humanities, especially English literature, but Ive also had the chance to become close with people who have completely different focuses. From artistic and creative-minded people (I helped start an annual arts review at my school last year) to industry and STEM-oriented people like my roommate, Ive learned a lot about the different paths you can take. Next year, Ill get to put some of that knowledge to use as a Resident Mentor in the flagship living/learning colleges my university is launching. Ive loved my time in college and engaged it deeply on every level; one day, I hope to teach at a university. For now, Im excited to work closely with students of all bents to help them develop toward their next step, however it may look.

I am a graduate of the University of Oklahoma. I earned my Bachelors degree in Letters with a focus on the Classics, and am in the midst of applying for graduate programs in the field of Comparative Mythology. While attending university, I was continually leading study groups and providing writing and editing help for my peers. My education before college was rather unorthodox, in that I was homeschooled by my mother, who brought in students who needed more individual attention than was being provided for them in public or even private school. Having been educated in such an atmosphere through grade 12 has blessed me both with the experience of having watched quality tutoring occur every day and of tutoring others from a very young age. I have always found immense joy in tutoring. Helping others learn is a wildly rewarding pursuit. I believe that tutoring is essential because every individual learns differently - every brain moves in intricate and astounding ways - and trying to educate every student in the same manner can end in frustration and disappointment. My favorite subjects to tutor are Writing, Essay Editing, Reading Comprehension, and English, because I find these are the subjects which are easiest for me to connect with emotionally, and thereby elicit a response from a student and get them more interested and involved.I am currently approved to tutor Writing, English, Essay Editing, Phonics, English Grammar and Syntax, Elementary School Reading, Elementary School Writing, Elementary School Math, Spelling Bee, Middle School Math, Middle School Reading, Middle School Writing, Middle School Reading Comprehension, Pre-Algebra, High School English, High School Writing, ACT Writing, Test Prep, College Application Essays, College English, ACCUPLACER - Listening, ACCUPLACER - Reading Skills, ACCUPLACER - Language Use. My interests outside of academia are reading, hiking, yoga, cooking, music, and dogs. :)

I worked as a Master Tutor for the Milwaukee YMCA's Sponsor-A-Scholar program focusing on math and indepently developing and delivering a five week ACT prep course. I currently teach classroom SAT prep courses with a local Chicago organization.While I have expertise in a variety of subject areas, I take particular pleasure in demystifying college Economics and teaching math to those who are "just not math people."

I have taught French at the college level as well as tutored in my universitys language lab. I had the privilege of mentoring elementary school students in a French immersion program. Ive traveled extensively in metropolitan France and the province of Qubec. Currently, I work as a Public Relations professional for an education focused non-profit.No matter how long I study, the phases of learning a foreign language remain fresh in my mind. The anxiety of new grammar and the joy of mastering it are something of a universal with students. As a Journalism student and PR professional, the precision with which I was taught to write has imbued me with a keen sense of what constitutes not just good but great writing. Editing, proofreading, and revision are second nature to me as are the intricacies of English syntax and grammar.Helping others achieve confidence in their work, no matter the topic, is the goal of my tutoring. Everyone learns differently and distinctly. If there were a one-size-fits-all to learning, everyone would use it! So, it is essential I understand my students: what do they enjoy about learning; what challenges them; how do they learn best; what are their strengths; what are their learning goals; how do their goals align with those of their classes? Suffice to say, empathy is the foundation of my teaching style.

I believe that no two students are exactly alike and that every mind deserves an equal chance to reach its fullest potential. I am also confident that no one branch of study is set apart. Instruction is most effective when it appeals to a student's particular passions and interests in order to stimulate curiosity and engagement in a course of study.

My passion for teaching started in high school, when tutoring my classmates became a part of my daily life. From English and History to the upper-level math courses I took at Rose State during my senior year, I have always been a resource for understanding and comprehending materials by connecting with my clients and tailoring study techniques to each individual. Whether it's finding tips and tricks to make homework easier, or structuring an entire studying regimen to promote success in the future, I can ignite the fire for learning in any student.I volunteered as part of my school district's gifted student program, and I taught and competed in academic competitions such as quiz bowl! During my senior year, I also had the amazing opportunity to be a teaching assistant for a Special Education math teacher. Although the process of learning and retaining knowledge presents a unique challenge to these wonderful students, the joy of education is universal, and much more rewarding with the hard work it takes to make everything 'click'! When I am not working with students, you could find me: in the kitchen, cooking foods from around the world (with names I can hardly pronounce); in front of the computer, playing video games and listening to music; or outside, hiking/gardening/swimming/reading on a hammock (weather permitting!) I love learning new languages and studying new subjects.I am currently the Technical Program Manager for the Business Intelligence team at my company, which includes developing applications, training 1000+ users, and constantly expanding my own knowledge.

I consider myself fortunate: I do what I love. Having earned a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, I set out to develop a career in HVAC design and gather professional contacts that would allow me to work my own hours, for myself. Mission accomplished. Now that I have that established, I have the time and the energy to assist others in developing the skills to master mathematics. This is the first building block in a career in the sciences or technology.At the age of 14, I was introduced to Algebra in middle school. This was not an introduction that gave me "warm fuzzies";. In fact, it haunted me on a daily basis. As I struggled to survive the first term, I sought out the help of a high school math teacher and this was the beginning of my passion for math. Her confidence and enthusiasm for mathematics spilled over on me in all of my years to follow in high school as well as college.There are very few things in life that parallel Algebra, which is why many adults still hold strong feelings, good and bad, decades after having taken it in school. Algebra allows students to think in logical ways that they have never before encountered; it stretches the human mind much as a runner would stretch his legs before attempting to run long distances. If you have not stretched, running is awkward and somewhat painful. The same can be said of Algebra.I believe in non-judgmental, consistent instruction paired with the student's repetitive practice and personal discipline. These skills are paramount in developing a strong foundation in math and in life. As I tutored students in College and continued to tutor adults while developing my career, I have been exposed to many learning styles and have an appreciation for the uniqueness of the student and his/her ability to comprehend concepts in a way that compliments his/her personality. I also received training for the latest developments in teaching methods for middle/high school students in 2010, thereby increasing my tutoring effectiveness.I look forward to talking with you about your needs for instructional math tutoring. As it is your choice in how you support your child in their education, I applaud you in seeking assistance and hope that I may also be of support to you and your child in achieving success.

Danielle

1+ Years Tutoring

I first started studying psychology while attending the University of Groningen in The Netherlands and then finished my degree at the University of Oklahoma in the United States. I love studying the mechanisms behind how humans think and behave and how psychology is fundamentally linked to both the sciences and humanities. Besides psychology, I also focused on classes in professional writing, and I have been editing and tutoring writing since I was studying for my International Baccalaureate degree in high school. I currently live in the UK where I'm doing my Masters in International Education and Development.I tutor Writing and English at all academic levels, as well as Psychology and Social Studies. My favorite topics to tutor are psychology and writing because they are both multidisciplinary subjects and therefore flexible and adaptable to almost any situation.My teaching philosophy is built on what I learned studying psychology: everyone is different and thus, everyone learns differently and has different needs and goals when it comes to education. I try to be a tutor who helps create a unique learning environment to suit the necessities of each individual student. Tutoring sessions are a two-way conversation, and as a tutor, I try to facilitate the concerns of my student and give them the resources and guidance they require to meet their goals.I've been a world traveler since birth and when Im not tutoring, I spend my time writing and editing. My hobbies are reading, painting, swimming and searching for my next adventure. I love learning about new things and meeting new people, as well as getting to share my own stories.

University of Oklahoma alumni tutors excel across a wide range of subjects, from foundational courses like calculus, chemistry, and biology to specialized upper-level courses in engineering, business, and liberal arts.

When you connect with a tutor who studied your specific subject at OU, you benefit from their direct experience with that program's curriculum.

Your first session is designed to help the tutor understand your academic goals, current challenges, and learning style.
