Young grandmother with open heart and open mind

On the professional end, I was an accountant (CFO type) for a very long time. My most recent "job," though, was publishing a natural health magazine (4 years). I walked away from it all late summer 2011 to work my spiritual path and providing patient and heart-centered tutoring to elementary children works well with this path. Children can feel that I enjoy them so they like me. I am a grandmother of two (2 and 6). Contact me at CarolinaLightWave@gmail.com to set up a meeting. With gratitude, Barbara

Experienced, unconventional Latin and English teacher

Personal, humorous, and energetic. I tailor games and activities to each class and do not think teaching directly from a text inspires many to learn. Typical key elements of my courses include flexible lesson planning, personalized tests/quizzes, adding cultural content, and incorporating student ideas as much as possible.
I have over 20 years of experience working as a university instructor and private teacher for students ages 11-50. Most of my experience has been in English as a Second Language programs for community colleges and research universities, including M.I.T. and Tufts University. For the past several years I have been assisting middle and high school students with Latin (I have studied over 11 years of that language) and have also tutored beginning German and English writing.

Learning is a life-long endevour.

I try to meet the needs of the prospective student, and teach them in a way that will be beneficial to them.
I have taught Spanish as well as tutored people in Spanish, music (guitar) and English composition. Also, I have some experience with teaching English as a Second Language. I taught beginning level Spanish to 8-12 graders for one year. I have tutored three different individuals in music (guitar) and love helping people to find out how to be creative in their pursuit of music. And, with English, I have tutored one individual with grammar and composition. I thoroughly enjoy writing, and have an eye for good writing.

More About This Tutor...

I am all about positive feedback. I think it is extremely important to point out when people do things right, and not just when they do things wrong.
I am currently in school to become a middle school language arts/social studies teacher. I am about to enter my junior year of college. I have volunteered in middle school classrooms. I have been doing one-on-one care with individuals with mental/physical disabilities for the past year and a half working for the Arc of NC. I have volunteered as a tutor at the Pullen Hope Center in Raleigh, tutoring adults trying to get their GED's.

Although my degree and early experience is in journalism, I have spent 16 years teaching middle school English. During that time I taught English Language Arts, Journalism, and TV Production. I have always nurtured a love for English literature, both in myself and in my students. In addition, my experience as a reporter and freelance writer gives me deeper insight into the artistry of written English.
I believe that learning comes from a good rapport between teacher and student. I like to make students feel at ease, and then progress is achieved in the context of a safe learning environment. Rather than taking an authoritarian approach, I prefer to act as a kindly mentor and facilitator of students' learning processes. Learning is a voyage of discovery; my role is to show students how to set foot upon that road. However, I believe in setting high standards for student achievement.

Yes, I do love teaching and yes, I do believe that all children can learn and be successful. I believe that most children are more intelligent than generally thought, but some may need help in showing "how smart they are." I challenge students to perform at high levels and used multisensory techniques to give them the opportunity to learn necessary skills for achieving. I believe in using both discovery and direct instruction methods for students to learn. I have been called a "constructivist" teacher. I believe that I have made a difference in the lives of students I have taught over the years.
I have been a Reading - Title I - Teacher in High School and in Elementary School (K-5) in Buncombe County North Carolina, a classroom teacher in grades 1-6 in bush Alaska. I have developed an intensive small group program for improving reading for at risk students in NC and given works ... read more

My teaching style has grown from an understanding that we are all unique learners. While the majority of my teaching style is built upon the concepts of Multiple Intelligence, I have also taught specifically for standardized testing. I believe varied modalities of teaching should be implemented in a way that is most appropriate for the individual learner. I also believe that it is very important to find the individual pace of the student. While it can be difficult for a teacher to give this individualized attention to students in the classroom, tutoring provides an educator with the time to focus on the individual as a unique learner. In general, my intended teaching style is patient, experiential, and engaging while remaining keenly aware of students’ individual needs.
After finishing my Bachelor of Arts in English, I decided to teach English as a Second Language in China. I enjo ... read more
