A lifelong learner, my heroes have always been my teachers. Now my goal is to be that person for today's students. I returned to school after a business career and earned my PhD. For the past 5 years, teaching and tutoring math and statistics students within the Minnesota State colleges and universities system has been both challenging and satisfying. Helping students overcome their math frustration is a highlight. These subjects are not for everyone. However, it seems reasonable that successful learning comes when tutoring complements individual interests and educational goals. Some people aspire to win an Olympic medal; scientific minds would like a Nobel Prize; and those who like more drama, seek an Academy Award. Graduation is our ultimate goal as it helps advance an improved quality of life. Looking forward to working with you during a successful school year.

I have over two years of classroom experience, and I thrive on the challenge of making complex concepts accessible. I also enjoy sharing my passion for social studies, which I believe enriches students' understanding of the world.

As an educator, I have had a myriad of experiences in a variety of settings. From educating elementary children in urban spaces, to taking on the undeniably-fulfilling role as a Literacy Coach and administrator, I have had the pleasure of inspiring students and mentoring teachers. I have both diversified and dedicated my life to my portfolio of empirical knowledge. There is a certain catharsis achieved from molding the malleable minds of the next generation of lawyers, of doctors, of writers. To have an integral part in the shaping and forming of our collective future is the fundamental essence of our craft, and by surrounding myself in a multitude of environments, I have learned innumerable ways of dealing with studentsbased on their individual, subjective needs. The psychology of every child is different, each student a reflection of their upbringing and temperament. In my interaction with these young, works in progress, it has always been important to approach every student differently, and not treat every child with the same methods of learning. Some children work better visuallysome, audibly. It is my responsibility, as an educator, to decipher the means to which a child learns--and learns best. My mission is to put the FUN back into learning!

I previously taught 6th and 7th-grade pre-algebra as a lead teacher and taught regular and Sped students in my class.

I have tutored for five years professionally and over 15 years worked at home with my grandchildren. I take great pride in helping students to see their potential from "I can't do it" to saying "I can't do it yet." But in time. I belive in loving and patient tutoring to build student confidence.

As a substitute teacher for 3.5 years, I have had the privilege of working with students from K-12, though I found my time with elementary students to be the most fulfilling.

In a world that capitalizes on the ignorance of many, my vision is to provide the captive mind with the tools necessary to cut through that ignorance and create access to the power of knowledge through education. I acquired my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Brandman University and then continued into my Master's degree in Applied Psychology from Walden University. I am currently working on my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology concentrating in Forensic Psychology from the same institution. As a working father with two kids, who is working on his Ph.D., one of the hobbies I use to manage all of the stress is music. I have 20 years of experience in music performance with the saxophone and today I use it to unwind and enjoy myself with other musicians. Throughout my academic and professional career, I have accumulated a plethora of skill sets and I have enjoyed passing many of them on to others. The most significant of these skills are doctoral-level writing along with advanced statistics and data analysis. I consider my proudest accomplishments in tutoring to be the investments I put in my children. My youngest son began reading at four years of age and my oldest son is now reading ahead of his grade level.
I believe all students are capable of learning. They all do not learn at the same rate, but with different methods and strategies, it is possible. Students should not be thought of as mindless individuals just waiting to be filled with knowledge by their teachers.Quite the opposite; students should be viewed as individuals who can contribute to the classroom, sharing and gaining knowledge from each other. Students need guidance and not just lectures only. Education is not solely academic; the teacher must also educate his students mentally by teaching them the skills needed to solve problems and socially by teaching them the skills needed to communicate and work productively with others.From Resume:- High School Social Studies/Technology Teacher- Social Studies/Language Arts Teacher- Middle School Technology/Math Integration Teacher- ESL
I have been teaching for 7 years. As the pandemic was starting in March 2020, I was leaving my job for maternity leave. I decided to take the following year off to be home with my daughter. I am so grateful to Varsity Tutors for allowing me to continue to stay home with her but also work and continue teaching. I've certainly missed it! In my time as a teacher I have taught many grades! Kindergarten, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 8th, 10th, and 11th; several of them at the same time. I love teaching!

Hello, my name is Lynn Campbell. I have experience in tutoring elementary students!
I'm a current medical student located in Chicago studying for my board exams. I was home-schooled during middle and high school and from this experience I learnt the importance of self motivation as well the need to have someone that will give you the extra push when you need it. The flexibility of homeschooling gave me the opportunity to participate in the dual enrollment program at my local community college in Gastonia, NC. It was during this time, my first experience in a public school setting, that I realized my love for tutoring. During a college math course I was asked by a fellow student to explain the concepts we were going over in class. She later told me about failing 3 consecutive exams and was on the verge of quitting. After our third session together she began to see improvements in her homework grades and was able to score an 88% on her math exams. To me the greatest highlight of my time at that institution was when we "high-fived" after she got her test score.I transferred to Queens University after high school graduation; there I was offered a position as a physics and organic chemistry tutor my junior and senior year. I've always taken pride in helping students, and hold to the belief that anything worth doing is worth doing well; even when the job is tutoring. One Saturday I was stuck in the library for 8 hours with a tutee going over concepts in physics. Of course after our long session we both swore never to look at physics again, but the following Monday there I was at the Center for Academic Success with another student.Throughout my educational endeavor I've being privileged to help students both in my class and the classes behind me. At Queens University I received the tutor of the year award, as well as an award for a research project I presented both at the school and at a national science conference in West Virginia. With all that, the greatest reward is when the grades of a fellow student can be changed for good, especially when they are putting in the effort.
I have just completed my 30th year in education and have my Master's in Reading and Literacy. I have taught from Kindergarten through College. I spent 15 years teaching 8th grade Language Arts, Creative Writing and Literature. I have had a love for teaching from as early as I can remember, mostly due to the fact that my mother was an educator and she read to us very early on, giving a love for reading, learning and teaching.
I am an experienced educator, college professor, researcher, and academic mentor with a PhD in Public Policy and Administration, an MBA, and advanced doctoral study in higher education leadership. I have taught students across middle school, high school, college, and adult-learning environments, giving me the ability to adapt my teaching style to students at very different academic levels. I specialize in English language arts, academic writing, essay development, research, APA formatting, reading comprehension, critical thinking, study skills, government and public policy, and college-level academic support. I particularly enjoy helping students who know they are capable of more but need individualized guidance, stronger organization, clearer explanations, or greater confidence to reach their potential. My tutoring philosophy is simple: every student learns differently. I first identify where a student is struggling and then break complex material into manageable steps. Rather than
My purpose and passion is to teach children in a way they feel trusting and comfortable with my strategies. I always want my students to feel that they can approach me at anytime with any questions. I will promise to always do my personal best to create a strategy that the student can carry away and use for their own personal understandings. I strive to always be the best I can be and will always do exactly what is expected of my. I like to teach students several ways to approach and solve the same problem and then leave it to them to choose their preferred way to solve. I have worked in Elementary Education and also done some private tutoring for 18 years now. I am very passionate about my job.
As an educator with 15+years experience, I am thrilled about the opportunity to apply my skills and experience in your science teaching role. In addition to my Bachelor of Science in Biology, and Doctoral of Philosophy in Public Health allotted me the opportunity to teach students across a diverse sector ranging from middle to collegiate levels. The lesson plans I constructed and implemented consisted of identifying the learning style of each student and aligning that style to the different areas of learning. For instance pre-assessment and post-assessment were issued that consisted of science content along with the following learning styles: visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and reading and writing. This approach aided in each student having a tailored made lesson plan.
