More About This Tutor...

I was a straight A student throughout school. I am currently a high school senior, so the information is still fresh in my mind. I have spent a few semesters as a tutor and volunteer assistant in a local elementary school. I enjoy working with children and being able to help them succeed in school, because without school, the future is bleak!
I prefer a hands-on approach when possible. I lik to help the children relate to what they are learning in order to help them remember it.

Passionate about learning.

I have experience as a peer tutor. Since I am an avid reader, I love all things related to books, vocabulary, literature and English. I have young children that I help daily with homework assignments. I have also worked many years as a trainer in genetics. I am also a DI(directed instruction) volunteer for elementary school. I enjoy opportunities to share my knowledge with others and learn as well.
I realize that everyone learns differently, and I believe in flexibility. I also believe in encouraging success and consistency.

Happy to help you begin your musical journey, and the future

A teacher never stops teaching, and never ceases learning.

I have to first find the learning style of the student. As a teacher, I find that students have diverse ways of learning and that I must adapt my teaching style to their needs. For instance, I have some students who are auditory learners and sometimes retain information more if information is read orally to them. Some students must have a generous amount of explanation as to the content of what he or she is reading while otheers require many visual cues to accompany their learning. It really depends upon the student.
I have been a special education teacher for 26 years with the Davidson County Schools. I have taught all grade levels from kindergarten through high school. I am currently a teacher at South Davidson High School in Denton, NC. I have worked in self-contained and resource classrooms; however, most of my experience has been in the inclusion classrooms with a co-te ... read more

Creating Confident Students via Creative Learning

I like to use hands on and/or creative teaching methods when possible. I believe that practice and persistence makes perfect. I would say that my teaching style is "outside of the box". I use this effective method when possible, due to the fact that typically students have tried more standardized methods and have not been able to learn from them; therefore they seek tutoring.
I have assisted students with tutoring for most of my life. My mother has worked as a teacher since I was born. I have a broad spectrum in technical and creative skills when working with students. I worked as the Geology Tutor at UNC Asheville. I have worked as a tutor for K-5 students at Hall Fletcher Elementary School (also in Asheville, NC). I have also volunteered throughout my life, helping and tutoring students of all ages throughout my educational and professional career.

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy helping anyone become a better writer! I strive to help people know that the first time they write an essay, a letter or a speech that it won't always come out perfect. From the best-selling novelist to the high school student who lacks confidence to let others read what they've written, all writers need encouragement and peer editing. I enjoy helping others to edit their own work and giving simple tips and advice I've gained through years of editing and writing. I believe anyone can become a better writer no matter how much they think that they lack the "writing genes."
Over the years I have become a diligent student of the college essay, journalism and non-fiction writing. As a literature major, I was trained how to analyze stories and ideas through discussion and then how to put ideas into written form. As a creative writing minor I was trained how to edit sentences ... read more

I have tutored fellow classmates in the past throughtout middle school and high school. Although I am not certified to teach, I have taken quite a few teaching curriculum courses while attending North Carolina State University. I have the ability to teach and accomodate different learning styles with various age groups from the Pre-K level to high school ranging from elementary students to adults. Subject matter in which I am willing/can tutor includes but is not limited to: math, English, social studies, science, etc. With such skills, I have been asked by my local church pastor to develop tutoring programs.

A Little Bit About Me...

Since my student teaching in college, I have been eager to help students not only improve their skills in reading and writing, but to recognize the joy of literature and power of the written word. I have taught grades 6, 8, and 9-12; courses including the IB program for high level students and Read 180 for low level students in the middle school; and, prepared students for End-of-Grade tests, End-of-Course tests, the writing test, and for SAT testing. I have also edited and proofed academic and professional essays and writings for colleagues. With my varied experience of levels and ages, I have gained the ability to break skills down to their basics and build upon them for greater success.
I am of the strong opinion that everyone can learn to read well and can write skillfully. I am patient, fair, and honest. I am willing to focus on one skill at a time or combine and challenge, wh ... read more

I love working one-on-one or in small groups. I am very encouraging and understand that each student has his or her own learning style. I am adaptive to these varying needs. I believe in positive reinforcement. I never get frustrated with a student and will try different methods until I find one that works with each particular student. I understand that my work not only helps a student to understand the subject, but also helps with the student's feeling of confidence and self-worth.
As a graduate, summa cum laude, with degrees in English and Voice, I am a highly driven individual. With my time spent as a Writing Center Consultant, I worked directly with students with a variety of writing needs. As both an independent and a corporate proofreader, I gained exceptional English language skills. My academic papers have always received the highest praise and I was at the top of my class. ... read more
