Entrance Exams Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Atlanta, GA

I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I began tutoring elementary, middle school, and high school students. For the past 5 years I have been professionally tutoring elementary school through freshman college students. I partner with local elementary - high schools: E.W. West Elementary, Landmark Academy,Langston High School, and Mills Springs Academy. I also work with Graduation Counselors to prepare their students to take ACT, ASVAB, and SAT tests. My students say that I make learning easy to understand. I believe every student has the potential to suceed. The key to their success is to teach by using the method in which they learn. I tutor Algebra, Geometry, Trigon

I am a very logical and result oriented person. If you are interested in seeing better results from the scores, tests and believe in making rapid change in your thought process, you may want to try me. I believe learning should be fun and not all work. Not all answers will be shortcuts that would involve lot of memorizing, but very systematic and logical way of approaching a problem for the student to gain interest and at the same time be able to address any problem out of the box. I do understand that not all students are the same and each one of them would require different teaching model to reach eventually to the same high levels. I have given several exams in and out of the country and there are definite tips that can help the student to achieve better results with the same knowledge level. I have scored over 95 percentiles in almost all the exams that I gave, some times wit

I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College. More info will follow later. To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning.

I believe that teaching is most effective when you give students a chance to show you what they already know. Half of teaching is simply encouraging children to be interested in their own progress and to persevere through the adversity that always follows real learning. I gage the progress of my students by asking them a lot of questions, and I give positive reinforcement whenever possible. I want to be a positive role model for every child I come across, and to participate in the process of discovery with them in a personal way. Most rewarding is the way that my students have taught me more things than I would have ever expected. I love to see my students' progress as they find their own paths, and to celebrate each students' uniqueness. I am graduating from Rice University with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Cell Biology and a B.A. in Asian Studies this year. I have achieved a cumulative G

While pursuing a Master's degree in Sociology, I served as a tutor for at-risk student athletes who were struggling with their undergraduate courses. While I was technically hired by the athletic department to assist students with their English classes and preparation for the Regent's exam, I found myself tutoring students in a number of subjects. Some of these subjects included college algebra, history, biology, geology, and theatre. In addition to my experience as a tutor, I double majored in English and Speech and Theatre Arts as an undergraduate, and graduated magna cum laude. As a graduate student I maintained a 4.0 grade point average and finished a Master's thesis. I have extensive experience as a researcher and writer, and now work as a full-time education researcher at a univeristy. I have always loved to learn and enjoy sharing this love with others.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible for my students. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and a constructivist approach to learning inside my classroom and also with students I tutor. I believe all children can exceed thier dreams when given the appropriate materials to do so. A few good educators can make dreams a reality for any student. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of Florida State University and a current corps member in Teach For America I am very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. My degrees, in both Political Science and Interdisciplinary Social Science, have given me insight in many areas, specifically, politics, history, hum

I think I can relate to the student because at some point of your life you will need someone to help you understand a topic a little better or lend a hand in teaching the subject in their terms to help you maximize your potential. Sometimes a student just needs that extra push, but done in a way that makes the student understand the material giving them the added confidence that they can be successful in school. My parents and relatives who were educators themselves and taught many of the subjects we took in school helped my brothers and I. I think that they instilled those same qualities that I use when I tutor. As a son, grandson and nephew of those who have been educators on the high school and collegiate level, I understood what study skills were required of me to become an exceptional student. Being the eldest son, my brothers leaned on me to assist them with homework and project

Children, now young adults of my generation, were often labeled the children of “Generation X,” but today many have labeled our youth as the children of “Generation Y.” Why have our children seemed to have given up? Why do our children so often succumb to the “street life?” Why is it that our children do not value education as they once did in the past? These questions are questions that, as educators, we must be able to identify and answer to break the cycle of a generation of children with little hope and no future. The youth of today are in dire need of leadership. I have chosen a career path in education to help fill the breach within the minds and lives of our youth. I have acquired and was blessed with an inert quality to lead. I believe that I would be an effective and positive example in the lives of these students. I have a great deal of patience and concern for the youth of

I have been working in the Accounting field for the past 10 years. I have been tutoring Accounting, Math and French language since college, and recently included tutoring in English reading and writing. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and skills with youngsters and helping them on their learning path. Teaching children and teenagers is a passion for me. It gives me an opportunity to enrich their theoretical and practical knowledge, by transferring my experiences. I am down to earth, patient and a good listener. I tend to anticipate the needs of students, in order to efficiently respond to their immediate issues. I see each session as a new experience, a new challenge and an opportunity for sharing my knowledge. My methodology is to identify student's specific needs in a moment, gather all information related to the subject, and then transmit the most relevant parts to the student. Afterwa

Before coming to Emory, I grew up in a struggling Memphis public school system. Although I was lucky enough to have plenty of resources, support, and guidance to enable me to excel, I knew many students did not have the same fortune. I began informally tutoring the ACT and SAT in high school. In college, I was a member of 'Emory READ' (through Emory's volunteer agency) tutoring at an inner city elementary school and AmeriCorps Jumpstart tutoring at a pre-school. Working with younger underprivileged children presented a welcome challenge, for in addition to mastering specific concepts I enjoyed the emphasis on developing language, literary and social skills. In college, my neuroscience major has often taken me out of my comfort zone and pushed me intellectually; I have received tutoring every step of the way. My college experience in addition to tutoring students in pre-school, element

I enjoy teaching children and building confidence in their abilities. I believe that the best teacher is one who helps a child learn how to learn. This will build confidence in the child's ability to learn different subjects and enable a passion for learning. Seeing this passion come forward in my students is my main motivation. For the last six years of my academic career, I have been driven to achieve a high level of excellence. I have completed a bachelors' and a Masters' in Mechanical Engineering. Math and Science have been very important in achievements of my academic goals. Having worked for various industries both within and outside Georgia Tech have helped me demonstrate and improve my communication skills. I have also tutored incoming freshman from Georgia Tech in Math, Physics and Chemistry with great success.
