Study Skills Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Barium Springs, NC

I help guide the student along, having them discover much of the information in a trial and error fashion. I tend to use the questions they are struggling with the most, making similar examples, then walking them through these problems and breaking down the problems until the student understands the how the process works. I have been tutoring for over seven years, starting with my peers in tenth grade. I have tutored a wide range of subjects, from Geometry through Calculus III, from general computer knowledge through utilizing the advanced functions of Microsoft Access. I have tutored people ranging from my peers to people three times my age, to as young as third graders. My motto has evolved into "Helping those who feel they can not be helped"

I observe the students to see what their learning style is and adjust how I teach according to that. For nine years I taught at the elementary level in private schools. I taught some inclusive classes and developed plans for my students to succeed. Identifying a student's learning style and giving them the tools to progress gave them the ability and confidence to do well. Positive reinforcement along with academic success encourages students to continually aim high. Not only were the parents pleased with the improvements, but also the students were as well.

When tutoring students I try to take a multidimensional approach. I attempt to show the child, explain it in my own words, have the student explain it in his/her own words, and then have them apply and practice so that the material really sticks. Throughout high school and college I helped numerous classmates develop efficient ways of studying as well as providing assistance to learning and understanding the given material. During high school I mainly tutored my neighbor's young children in elementary subjects. In college I helped fellow classmates in my major and minor. The most challenging tutoring experience I had was when my own brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia and he was taken out of school for months at a time. I was able to help him learn a full course of high school biology, english, and spanish and he was able to complete the courses with passing grades and be promoted t

I am an enthusiastic former high school Math teacher (now an Assistant Principal) available for private Math tutoring. The majority of my teaching experience is with Precalculus and Algebra II, but I have experience teaching/tutoring Algebra I, Geometry, Tech Math, Advanced Functions & Modeling, and Advanced Placement Statistics. Due to my experience in education, I truly value the time any student spends outside of school focused on academics. I make a commitment to any student I work with to focus on their needs, whether it's re-teaching material or preparing for an upcoming assessment. If you are interested in providing your high school student with some extra assistance for their math class, please contact me. I will work individually or with groups and my rates are negotiable.

My experience comes from working in mental health and counseling. I have been working with children for more than six years assisting them in developing coping skills, communication skills, anger management skills, as well as improving reading and writing skills. I have a desire to work with those who want to improve their skills and be the best they can, therefore it becomes a passion for me to help them obtain those goals. I enjoy what I do and look foward to working with those that are working towards improving their present situations.

I tend to prefer a Socratic method of teaching where the student discovers the answer through discussion, reading and research. I will use direct instruction on occassion when the need arises but my classroom is typically humming with group work and whole class discussions. I have been teaching social studies in Cabarrus County for the past 12 years. I am nationally board certified and have my AP certification in World History. This summer I will be receiving my IB training and will begin teaching AP world history in the IB classroom. I am interested in tutoring specifically in world and AP world history, which I consider my speciality, but am proficient in all social studies classes and can help at any level. I am familiar with the set up and requirements of the AP World History exam and am willing to learn all there is to know about the other social studies AP exams in order to he

I approach teaching from the view point that students need concrete information as well as a means of applying that information. Therefore, I advocate hands on esperience learning. I like to use high quality literature, games, and technology in my lessons. I like to get to know my students as quickly as possible and incorporate their interest in the lessons as well. I understand that different students need different approaches. I work with each student where they are and move each one forward to reach their individual goals. I am a veteran teacher with 32 years in the classroom. I have taught a variety of grade levels with most of my time concentrated in kindergarten, first, and fifth grades.

When working from my office, I like to use hands on activities that keep children engaged. However, since working online I use many different websites and materials that allow children to be actively engaged. I use Orton Gilligham and Wilson reading programs as well as my own materials. Helping children with learning issues is something I am very passionate about. Building self confidence is key to growing and learning. I have 22 years experience teaching public education k-6. I began my career as a special education teacher and then moved into regular education classrooms. I now tutor children from the Zoom platform since I cannot see them in my office due to the pandemic. I have been doing private tutoring for 2 years.

Once I have an understanding of what a student is capable of I like to push them to go past their "comfort zone" in learning. It helps them understand that what may look difficult, may not always be so and that they only way to find out is to learn it. Also, I do not teach study habits. Instead I like to see what a students current habits are and work on expanding those habits so that the child does not get frustrated and overwhelmed. It is easier to learn more from current knowledge than try to teach a whole new way. After all, most students study habits are based on how their teacher has taught them, and I wouldn't go against what the teacher has taught. The point of tutoring is to help a child understand the work they are currently doing in school. It is my job to make sure that happens. I will want to speak with your child to determine the best way to teach them. I have experience tu
