Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Abbeville, LA

A person who has strong negative feelings about learning is automatically hindered in any learning environment. I first gain the trust of my students, and then start to build an appreciation for learning in their minds. Once that process has begun, I inject a sense of humor, a sense of patience, and a great deal of love into my teaching. I have been a classroom teacher for over 20 years. I have taught all subjects in elementary school, English, history, and mathematics in middle school, and English composition and literature in high school. Additionally, I have taught mass communication and creative writing in high school. I have taught remedial English, freshman composition, and technical writing on a collegiate level. One of my specialties is helping students to overcome the difficulties in passing standardized tests such as iLEAP, ACT/SAT, GED, and ASVAB. My 27 years in the army has g

I'm a college student with a catholic education my entire life. I have a strong background in math and science. I have 1st and second place finishes in biology at tests the university of Louisiana at Lafayette. I also have had math classes as high as Calculus. Algebra I seems to be my specialty though which is why i would like to tutor this subject. I tested out of Algebra I based on my test scored on the ACT and i currently hold a 3.9 GPA and graduated in the top 10 in my class at Teurlings Catholic. Will assess the type of style that works best with the student.

I love to make things interesting. I struggled with science in middle school and required a tutor. This person didn't make learning the subject fun, so from there I decided that with everything students learn a little fun should be involved. As soon as the student becomes stressed, I do some kind of physical activity with them to make them feel better. I have finished many of my math classes through high school with A's. I absolutely love writing stories and essays. The lowest grade I have receives on any writing assignment was a B. I have tutored many of times before and my students did extremely well. One student started with me with a grade of D in math and picked it up to an A.

Energetic with high level of professionalism and candor. I truly believe the most efficient way to teach someone is to have them figure out the underlying problems, obstacles & solutions through questioning and breaking down theory into manageable/applicable chunks. Truly enjoyed my collegiate years (both at mcneese & LSU) and developed relationships with some great mentors and discovered many new passions of mine. Mostly revolving around business, marketing, teaching & consulting. I've been an independent marketing & small business consultant for the past 5 years and have the perfect non-traditional schedule conducive to tutoring others. I'm currently a Marketing Instructor for the College of Business at McNeese State University.

I am a recent college graduate from UL. I am from the Lafayette area and have done private tutoring and tutored for the university for the past 3 years. I have flexible hours and understand that everyone learns differently. My goal is to get the student to understand the material, not just be able to work the problems.

I enjoy explaining certain concepts and then I may give the student a few problems to work on their own. I also love to create little tricks and fun ways to remember certain concepts. If possible, I love to you use hands on activities. I have tutored in high school. After getting to college, I tutored on campus for four years in subject areas: Math, English, and Spanish. I have taken a few education courses. I have taught a lesson at a high school. I have also been introduced to different techniques/ways of teaching. Some people have a fear of math, but I love it and enjoy teaching it. I have been blessed to be able to teach it in a way that has helped many students and I hope to help you in any way that I can! :)
