Let The Learning Begin!
- $55 / h
- Plainfield , Illinois ( 60544 )

I believe an outstanding teacher is committed to being a life time learner and finds a way to make learning fun, relevant, and applicable to the real world. Good teachers help students explore new ways of viewing the world as well as themselves; they challenge them to go beyond being contempt with surface answers to being willing to explore multiple layers of truths simultaneously. Outstanding teachers love what they do and feel elated that they are able to get paid for doing it. I've tau... Read more

I have spent the last seventeen years volunteering at schools, tutoring math and working with grade school level children. There is nothing better than seeing the world open up to children as they gain confidence by mastering a particular skill and develop the inner motivation needed to continue to the path to higher learning. Sometimes children need a helping hand to develop a baseline of knowledge necessary to become successful at school. All children can learn. I believe in meeting them at... Read more

University Junior Majoring in Mathematics
I live for the lightbulb moment! My goal is to create lasting learning. I understand how the schools teach, and that their way is not always how the student learns best.

As of 2016/2017, I am a junior at Aurora University, studying Pure Math and Disability Studies. I hope to make a career out of serving students of all ability levels. I have an Associate's Degree of Science ... Read more
Marcos
Marcos- Español or TOEFL Help
I believe that languages should be taught the same way we learned our first language. Through constant exposure of the second language, through scenarios that are frequent in the context where the FL is used and through practical sessions, learners are able to grasp the FL in a quicker way. My main focus is to develop the learner's fluency skills rather than the accuracy skills based on the wants and needs of each person. Learners start to realize that they have a double identity o...
