Reading, Writing, and Critical Thinking Skills

I believe education can empower individuals to pursue their passions and make a difference in the world. I have always held a heightened level of curiosity which has driven my educational pursuits and helped me develop critical thinking skills to apply to a number of fields. I achieved my Bachelor of Science in Anthropology with an emphasis in Cultural Anthropology, which demanded a rigorous reading and writing workload and competency. I also earned a minor in French Language Studies and w... Read more


Carol

PreK - Elementary Reading, Math, Handwriting, Study Skills

In my elementary education degree program I took a course in Exceptional Children and more recently I have taken professional development classes on challenging behaviors. In my thirty years of teaching preschoolers, I had several that were in the autism spectrum. I currently tutor a 12-year-old who has autism and problems with sensory integration. There are techniques that I use that can help not only autistic children, but all children. Picture schedules or charts, like First/Then are very helpful. I also allow children to make as many choices as possible. I help children identify their feel Read more

Tutor Specializing in Breaking Down Difficult Subjects

I am a PhD student in Philosophy at the University of Iowa. I have been teaching philosophy for 3 years, including a year spent adjuncting at a community college in a large urban area of Texas. Because of these experiences, and also because I am naturally a non-judgmental person, I am comfortable with a wide variety of students and different learning styles. Teaching in a way that actually helps students learn is my passion, and I excel at communicating difficult material in easy-to-underst... Read more

Elizabeth

Understand the big picture, as well as the little details

My job is to help the student (you or a family member)--no matter what age--become equipped with strategies to make independent study easier. I do not want to take any more of your time and money than necessary. I will first observe how the student approaches the subject (English or math) on his or her own, noting strengths and areas I can help strengthen. Then, I'll try out different methods and see what helps. I will expect a lot of repetition in this skill building so that it will ... Read more
