- Brookfield , Illinois ( 60513 )

My name is Bob. I knew the first day (in first grade) that I wanted to be a TEACHER. I could never have imagined how fulfilling my journey would be. I've worked in elementary, secondary and the college/university levels. I love teaching because students needed to be challenged and validated. They need to understand that commitment is key for success. I do my part, they do theirs. We BOTH SUCCEED. I am BIG on incorporating the student and his/her family into the tutoring process. They all hav... Read more

University Lecturer and Trainer

- 10 miles
While employed as a lecturer at Assumption University in Thailand, an international university catered towards both local and international students, I have employed the theory of Multiple Intelligences in designing and executing engaging lesson plans. This ensures that students, regardless of their learning styles, are challenged but are still able to deeply understand the course content. It is also my belief that learning should not only happen inside the classroom; rather, it must conti... Read more

One of my former teachers gave me some advice while I was still in college, pursuing a career as a high school English teacher. He told me to always remember to "meet the students where they are." It sounded like an important enough teaching philosophy to wrap my head around and seemed almost beautiful in its simplicity. Little did I know the what such a philosophy requires for a dedicated professional in education. In my years since graduating and starting my profession, meeting the studen... Read more

Later I became the Program Director of JARC's Adult Learners' Program, which meant recruiting, testing, matching and supporting the students and tutors. We had a mixture of ESL, ABE (Adult Basic Education) and GED prep students in the program. After moving from the city to t... Read more
