I graduated from Ronald Reagan High School with a 4.6 GPA in the second graduating class ('08), then went on the NC State University to study Engineering, where I jumped in between various Engineering programs for three years before simply deciding to take a break and truly figure out what I want to study. While this may deter several people from choosing me, I know that if you met me and/or any of my teachers from any grade level, they/I could certainly set the record straight, as I am quite a smart person, I have simply struggled with getting my life into an appropriate schedule. This is because between high school, my extra curriculars (captain of the drumline for three years and a captain of the lacrosse team for three years), and my parents, my life was completely structured for me, so what little free time I had was easy to budget, this is not the case in high school. I am a ver ... read more

My comments on tutoring SAT - Verbal : I can help students prepare for the SAT verbal test.

I have been very busy this last year, but now have a little bit more time to do tutoring.

I can work with children and adults who have: ADHD, Central Auditory Processing Disorder, learning disabilities, cognitive impairments, ASD, or communication difficulties. I can also work with adults without disabilities. I can also teach ESL. I also enjoy and can provide:consultation and coaching for parents and caregivers of children from 6 months-6 Years in child development, positive discipline techniques, emergent literacy/reading readiness, and early literacy; and for children from 7 - 11 years consultation in child development, positive discipline techniques, reading, homework, homeschool curriculum, and working on IEP goals at home (I am no ... read more

Tutor for: STANDARDIZED TEST, LEGAL or ELEMENTARY EDUCATION

I am an Attorney with 20+ years of experience. I have successfully mentored and tutored young students and attorneys; including assisting with preparation for the LSAT and state bar exams. I served in the US Army Reserves as a JAG Officer; and provided instruction and counsel to many young soldiers. I was employed as an elementary school Teacher's Assistant; and have frequently volunteered as a classroom assistant and tutor.
My style of teaching depends on the student. We all learn in different manners; therefore my instruction will be tailored to techniques that maximize the students' specific learning preferences.

More About This Tutor...

I am a disciplinarian. I have an excellent ability to gain a students attention, keep it and the results of my students have been well above average. I have a knack to bring into the classroom, outside events (latest ball games, Olympics, etc.) to establish a 'bond' between myself and the student. This allows me to gain their confidence as well as not create a bored atmosphere. I find this very important, especially with the more difficult students.
As seen from above, I have valid tutoring experience in both middle grades and HS. I was in the student teaching program at Wake Forest and upon graduation, I was a substitute teacher in the Winston-Salem, Forsyth County School system. I also participated in the Junior Achievement program in the Piedmont NC region for over 5 years. I am currently a tutor with the "No Child Left Behind Program."

I have taught French at the middle and high school levels for ten years. During this time I had the experience of teaching 7th through 12th grade French courses. Most recently, I taught ESL to Korean and Chinese students in order to support their 9th and 10th grade English courses. I have also tutored students in French, English, and in homework assistance in an after school program for students from 4th to 8th grade. These students struggled with completing homework due to learning differences and difficulties. I have to say that my most gratifying experience has been tutoring students one-on-one. This is where we can accomplish the most, and a student can receive the education and attention he or she needs.
I have noticed over the years that many students can identify their specific needs when it comes to learning. I see myself as a facilitator in helping students to learn while ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to observe children to determine what learning styles best fit their personalities and strengths. I believe in the capabilities of all children, when their teachers find the proper ways to motivate and support their learning. I find that building a trusting relationship in which students feel comfortable asking questions and thinking critically are best for making gains.
I have been a classroom teacher for the past four years in both elementary and middle school. Both of my parents are educators, so I spent a great deal of time tutoring and volunteering in schools prior to my teaching career. I also have a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Florida Atlantic University. My strengths are in the areas of language arts, reading, and social sciences.

My goal is to engage each and every student in the classroom in some aspect of the lesson being conducted. Perhaps I can relate the lesson to experiences in their own lives, or I can tap into their knowledge of, or interest in, a particular subject. Students will not be interested in any lesson if the teacher does not care if they are interested. Students should not be dull-eyed receivers of information that a teacher is megaphoning over their heads: they should be participators in all aspects of the learning process.
The only teaching experience I have is the student teaching I did at Andrews High School in High Point in 1993 as part of the teaching program at UNC-Greensboro. For several months I taught American Literature and Composition. I have also conducted training classes on new procedures in previous jobs.
