I am a highly qualified middle school teacher. As a dedicated classroom teacher and a skilled professional, I am in search of opportunities that afford me the chance to continue to grow with lifelong learners. I believe that my experience and education make me a competitive candidate for your tutor. Throughout my employment career, I have been assigned increased responsibilities as a leader because of my devotion and commitment to professionalism. All concerns are immediately addressed and effectively communicated with a high degree of confidentiality in a fast-paced and at times challenging work environment. Additionally, I am continuing my education, endeavoring to enhance my skills and meet the expectations required to work in a diverse and dynamic workforce. I am eager to bring new energy, a constructive attitude, and a novel perspective to any environment. If my qualifications meet the requirements you are looking for, I would be grateful for an opportunity to be your tutor.

I love the English language and further love the opportunity and ability to help students gain a serious command of English. I have been an English teacher at upper level high school and college for decades and have never grown tired of nor disenchanted with helping students master the nuances of the language. I am student-centered-- finding clever and fun ways to explain difficult concepts and encourage students' positive practice of language and literature skills.

I have always enjoyed learning and sharing what I have learned. I find that for me reading and then putting something into practice is most effective. In 2000 I began pursuit of a Masters in Computer Information along side of my full time work and family responsibilities and completed it in 2007. In 2008 I was fortunate to start teaching online at Indiana Wesleyan University and currently continue this rewarding work. I also teach in volunteer venues. All of this requires continual learning. I am working for income much less than in the past and tutoring is a way for me to continue learning and sharing how to learn and what I have learned. I am a husband, father, and grandfather and greatly enjoy those roles.

My goal is to help student learn from their mistakes and build their confidence, motivation and engagement.

I attended St. Mary's University and received a Bachelor's in Music and Elementary Education. Then I taught for 7 years in elementary schools in Kansas and in Phoenix, Arizona. I taught General Music in Phoenix for four years. In 2007, I received my Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have also been a tutor for several years and taught in a reading lab for a year.

I am a huge advocate for higher education and investing in our next generation. Out of 20 aunts and uncles and 60 first cousins I am the first in my family to graduate college. I believe in empowering individuals and showing them how to become successful in their specific discipline. Honesty is the best policy. My life is an open book and I am glad to be a role-model and have a positive impact on other lives, I count it a privilege to be in this position.

As a teacher with 10 years of experience, I am excited about the opportunity to apply my skills and experience here at Varsity Tutors. In addition to my Masters in Education, I have found history, government and economics extremely exciting and linked together in many respects. I also have 3 years experience teaching history and government to high school students. What I have learned through that experience was that to get kids to understand and value historical events, I had to make these events come to life. I implemented unorthodox teaching strategies such as combining film, biographies and historical accounts together to make these events memorable for them. I am passionate about teaching and helping students come to love the act of learning and I would cherish the opportunity to transform the way your students view history, government and economics.

I believe that everyone has the potential to learn once they identify how they learn. I don't require perfection, just your best effort.

Welcome Adventurers to the wonderful world of learning. My name is Kristen and I will be your tour guide. I am a very dedicated and passionate person with an outgoing personality, who believes learning should be a fun and enriching experience. I treat each student as if they were my son or daughter, making sure they are in a comfortable and safe learning environment. I love to think outside the box when it comes to planning lessons, applying student interests and hobbies when possible. This act gives each lesson my personal touch. I believe communication is key when building that student-teacher bond. The more communication there is, the more trust is earned. If the student is able to feel safe, share ideas and trust in their abilities the more they will learn, grow and succeed. Let the journey begin.

Helping others has been a passion of mine since very young. Through tutoring/teaching I have been able to experience the positive impact helping others brings to our lives.

I truly enjoy working with children. I believe that in my classroom, students learn to love learning. We have fun and learn all at the same time. During my down time, I enjoy volunteering at schools or animal shelters. I love to read, travel and take classes for my own development. I believe that the best way to ensure a successful future for the world is to make education a priority. Education is the one thing no one can take away. It is the one thing in life that is yours, and yours only.
