Diverse background with ability to adapt learning

I believe that a lack of success in academic's is usually attributed to one of two things; a lack of motivation(it's not fun enough) or a misunderstanding of the fundamentals(which brings a feeling of hopelessness). This is particularly true in foreign languages. Many times a person must rewire their brain when it comes to learning a new language. My goal in tutoring is to help students not just fix a problem but create an overall understanding of what they are learning. I also like to focus on making goals and increasing motivation to learn. It is important to me to teach not only those skills but work on life values like respect, curiosity, creativity, and comprehension.
I have always been a very curious and academic person. I love to learn and like to pass that on to my students. It makes it easier because I have really lived a lot of the things I teach. I grew up ... read more

Creative tailored ways of learning based on students' needs!

I like to start the initial session by evaluation my student's strengths and areas needing improvement. I like to offer editing assistance and answer questions in every session. I like to make the tutoring sessions to be as relaxed and comfortable as possible. It is a learning environment, not a lecture classroom.
Hello! Thank you for your time. In the summer of 2002, I tutored children from ages 6-12 years at an educational camp.

Although my experience is mostly with older students, I absolutely love children and get along with students of all ages.

20 year Marketing, Public Relations, and Video Specialist

I believe that a good teacher has a great deal of "real life" experience in the field they are teaching and can bring to the student "real life" case studies to show the right and wrong way to do things. I find having a lecture/presentation and then open discussion is most beneficial to my students. Many of my students keep coming back to various classes I teach because they trust me and feel comfortable enough to ask questions that are relevant to their individual interests and needs.
I work with a Marketing/PR/Video agency (Purple Duck Marketing)with offices in Seattle and Atlanta. My expertise is in helping businesses and nonprofits create integrated marketing plans and campaigns to effectively increase awareness and revenue. I also teach classes for nonprofits at the Foundation Center (Atlanta) as well as independently. With more than 20 years experience, my greatest passi ... read more

My comments on tutoring Communications : More than 30 years of experience as a newspaper editor, corporate communicator and agency executive.

A.B., Philosophy and Art History,, Valdosta (Ga.) State College and the University of Georgia Degrees in philosophy and art history prepared me well for a writing and editing career with major daily newspapers in Georgia and Florida. Formerly a news editor with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. From there, I moved into public relations and corporate communications, counseling executives and clients on how they can improve their messaging and delivery to their employee, investor, industry and community audiences. Currently, I am a communication counselor on issues and reputation managing and I do extensive writing and editing for an array of clients.
Collaborative and illustrative.

I feel that teaching will not only inform young minds to think differently or make them more motivated to learn. But to allow one to master his or her knowledge in general, teaching allows oneself to fully understand the subject in their own minds. Young minds such as children are easily impacted by an adult, which I feel that that should be influenced with positive, enjoyable learning. Allowing a young mind to like learning or studying will allow them to become very motivated individuals in life. I will only strive to make a positive difference in a child's life and let them enjoy the simple discoveries of learning.
Being a Georgia Southern graduate, I learned to enforce high level thinking and appreciation of education. I received a bachelor degree in Civil Engineering Technology, which has enabled me to get a feel of hands feel in the area of math and science. With previou ... read more

I use positive motivation with my students, explaining how subject matter being covered should relate to them and their future successes. I try to link the subjects with current events and how lack of knowledge on specific subjects can cost them either financially or impact their health and well being. For example, when I encounter a senior who is not participating in class, I give them an employment application to fill out, explaining if they have difficulty completing it, they better join the class.
I graduated LSU and was commissioned as an officer in the US Air Force. I completed Transportation Officer courses on vehicle fleet management, commercial transportation, and staff logistics officer training related to airlift terminal management and operations.

I am a life long learner of many subjects including but not limited to English, mathematics, sciences & technology, and interpersonal communication. While my degree is in Religious studies, which gave me strong language and grammatical skills. I am driven by an insatiable curiosity to learn about many subjects. I spent much of my free time in college tutoring peers as well as my professors' children. I also continue to tutor my relatives who are local to Atlanta.
I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be.

I have taught ESL in China for more than 4 years. Through this experience I have learned that education is mind opening. This is a wonderful thing to cultivate in students and witness the outcome. The ability to form an opinion based on knowlege of the subject, and put it forward, either verbally or in writing, is the essence of education in my opinion. Through my experience in teaching Listening, Speaking and Academic Writing as a second language, I know that L1 students can grasp and use the information and ideas they are taught to benefit themselves and society.
I enjoy seeing students make progress, not only in academics, but also in learning life lessons from their study. I believe this is the real vocation of a teacher. Any metods can be used to teach such as TV documentaries, radio, activities and even movies with specific lessons about life. Information is only as good as w ... read more

My teaching style is a combination of training and techniques that I have learned from my professors and leaders.I truly feel that every child is unique which is why every child learns differently.I like to take the time out and ask the child about his or her stregnths and weaknesses and how they feel they best learn.I am an extremely patient,careing and passionate individual.It is a saying that what affects one affects us all and when it comes to education the saying holds true.Due to the fact that I have been blessed to have a great education I would like to pay it forward and educate others.
