Experience
Over four years of tutoring experience. I love helping others achieve their goals and showing them they are capable of far more then they expected. I will provide you with the knowledge to get the results you desire, but more than that I want to provide you with the skills to learn and succeed on your own. Here are a few experiences: TEACHER’S ASSISTANT - worked alongside two teachers in a credit recovery course for students who failed a course - worked with students who had learning difficulties ranging from disabilities to ESL to just bad attitudes - tutored individuals one-on-one in English, History, Geography, Law and Business - taught students research methods to help develop independent learning and thinking for homework and assignments PRIVATE TUTOR - adult native learning center, ages 19-35, which provides services to Aboriginals and Non-Aboriginals, assisting them in making meaningful life choices - developed and assisted giving lessons on career choice which inspired them to research into various fields - marked and provided feedback on essays - tutored adults, individually and in small groups, in English, History, Geography and Mathematics
