I majored in Elementary Education in college and stepped right into the classroom when I graduated. I taught reading, math, phonics, science, computer technology, and social studies for a combined 13 years. These years were spread out through grades Kindergarten to the 6th grade. Most of my experience was in teaching literacy and mathematics to below grade level students, providing remedial support. While teaching grades K through 6th, I really enjoyed all 13 years of it.

My favorite teacher was my 9th grade History teacher. His class was really fun and he seemed genuinely interested in us as people and not just students in too little desks expected to do as we were told. He inspired me to get to know my students and how they learn before shoving material at them. I always start my lessons with an interesting question or short activity before teaching explicitly and giving my students a chance to practice the skills they've learned. Whether teaching in the cla... Read more

Reyniak
Patient & effective chemistry and math tutor
My experience as a graduate TA has allowed me to obtain a lot of experience teaching general and organic chemistry. Each year I look forward to seeing the students do well in the course and often employ the use of metaphors, examples, and models in order to make chemistry less mysterious and ensure understanding of the material. My knowledge of the material allows me to explain the information simply yet adequately using basic principles. Students can then be led to build upon these basics to... Read more

Similarly, over the past 50 years with NASA and in retirement many o... Read more
Vidya
Math Educator for 15 years
I have taught math for the past 15 years at an all-girls, Catholic high school, and currently teach at a co-ed independent school in DC. I have absolutely loved being a teacher in a subject that most students shy away from and completely understand that some students need a one-on-one approach to help them understand concepts that they cannot easily grasp in a classroom setting. I understand that students need to feel comfortable to learn math, and they also need to trust their teacher. I ... Read more
