Need a little homework help? Maybe you're having difficulties in one of your classes? Adult going back to school? Or possibly you just want to learn something new! Whatever your needs, I'm available to help. I would love to help you reach your potential. If I don't teach your subject, I'll help you find someone who does.

I've been a classroom educator for over 20 years. I taught classroom Music, Band, Choir, First Grade and Beginning Computer courses at the college level during this time. I began tutoring before I started my college studies in education. I have tutored Reading and Reading Comprehension, Math through Algebra, English/Grammar/Phonics, World History, Science, Study Skills, and have provided Homework Help.

My graduate degree is in Elementary Education and Reading. I enjoy teaching Reading at any level. I have previously taught Reading privately, in small groups, and in the classroom at the first grade level. As my undergraduate degree is in Music Education, I have also taught Flute, Piano and led Bands.

It is my belief that two of the most important academic subjects are Reading and Math. Reading in Kindergarten through Second Grade is primarily reading to learn to read and reading for pleasure. However, beginning around Third grade, reading is used to learn other subjects. Students are expected to begin reading textbooks and other material. If they are not strong in Reading, the other subjects will be very difficult. Of course we use Math everyday of our lives - and Reading! - and for that reason alone Math is important. However, I'm often asked why it's necessary to learn so much Math and learn more advanced Math that isn't always found in everyday life. One reason is "the more you know, the farther you can go!" When you limit the information you learn, you are limiting your possibilities for the future. Math is found in so many other subjects and careers - Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Economics, Psychology, Sociology, Sculpture, Drawing, Music, Engineering - and the list goes on! Of course anything that uses the computer uses Math. Today, that's everywhere. Finally, using Math requires you to think logically and to use the skill in solving problems. It helps you be precise in thoughts and words.

Aside from reading, which is one of my favorite activities, I thoroughly enjoy water activities such as swimming, boating and white water rafting. In addition, I enjoy board games and card games. I frequently play poker online and watch televised games. And yes, I like puzzles. I like Word puzzles and Math puzzles. Sudoku puzzles can be a lot of fun and quite challenging.

Description: Do you, or your student, need help with written or spoken communication? Or would it help to have a concept communicated in a different way? I'm a Lifelong Learner. I'd like to help you, or your student, develop a love of learning, as well! My specific areas of expertise involve communication and language arts. However, I've also tutored history and math, as well. A bit of background may be in order. I graduated with honors from Idaho Falls High School and took home several awards in the Debate program. Then I graduated from the University of Idaho in Telecommunications and a minor in Music. Now I am enrolled in the Advanced Writing program with AWAI (American Writers & Artists, Inc.). Since graduating from the UofI, I've been involved in radio, concerts, seminars, and advertising.      << View Less

Description: I hold a graduate degree with honors in business (minor in international business) from a prestigious university. My minor as an undergraduate (also with honors) was international studies, minoring in geography. I have also over a decade of experience teaching at the undergraduate level, so I understand ¨the other side of the lectern¨.

Description: I am an English tutor with 5 years experience working with a variety of students. From assisting kids in elementary school on improving their reading to helping college students perfect their essays, I enjoy instilling confidence within my students and watching them progress in their skills. For the past two years I have volunteered as a tutor for the program Helping Hands, where I get paired with children in elementary school to teach them in a range of subjects. I have two years experience working with students with special needs, and I also served as a student teacher in a middle school French classroom this year. It was an exciting experience that solidified my passion for teaching others!      << View Less
