My comments on tutoring World History : I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade, and 5th Grade. I am certified K-6th grade. I also taught advanced and Intermediate math and language arts in a GED/HiSet program. I currently teach ESOL/CIVICS for an Adult School.

My teaching philosophy starts out with essentialism which believes in a strong core curriculum and high academic standards. I believe it is important to have a strong foundation on which to build upon. After ensuring a strong foundation I tend to lean more towards progressivism. I believe students should be taught what is relevant today while becoming more independent learners, by utilizing problem solving skills and critical thinking. I teach the foundation and build upon that based upon what is relevant in a particular field today. I also include student-centered teaching strategies. I believe in order to learn a student must have base knowledge of a subject that leads into hands on assignments which require mastery of a subject. Students must have both of these in order to truly master what they are learning. I also believe that team based learning is essential today. It is i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Miami University in history. I currently am enrolled at University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to obtain a Masters Degree in Education with a license to teach in the state of Tennessee in the middle grades. I have worked as a nanny during undergraduate for a couple different families. I have also worked through the YMCA as an after school teacher where I helped students K-6 with their homework. After graduating with a BA is History, I have worked as a Pre-Kindergarten Teacher, a Kindergarten Substitute Teacher, and an after school teacher for children 4 years through kindergarten.
I enjoy working with children, however, I don't feel I have one teaching style. I like to be able to adapt to how the children learn the best. My favorite teaching style is hands on activities such as experiments and crafts. I take pride in my creativity.

More About This Tutor...

I think kids are great. The time I spend coaching a group of teenagers energizes me. I find the key to each child’s personality and try to connect with them individually. I like to joke and have fun with them. My style is casual on the surface but makes for an enjoyable experience. Kids look forward to my time with them and they leave having learned much more than they realized. Learning can be and should be fun. Everyone enjoys success and achievement. My education and experience have given me a myriad of first hand experiences and situations which I use in the teaching process.
After closing my small business I want to indulge my passion as an educator. Directly out of college I accepted a position as Math teacher at a private school, teaching different levels of mathematics to 7th & 8th grade students. The courses touched on the basic concepts in subjects such as; A ... read more

While everyone has a passion in life, my passion is to teach and to help shape a child’s academic future. One of the best ways to have an impact on a child’s life is through tutoring. My favorite aspect of tutoring is the opportunity to work one on one with a child and learn his or her individual learning style. Some of my teaching attributes are a good listener, easy going, patient, and most importantly an inspiring teacher. Every child has the ability to learn any subject; they just need the tools and the encouragement in order to do so.
Throughout my entire life, I have always been driven to do the best of my ability. This is especially the case when it comes to academics. While I was a college student, I learned the importance of teaching other colleagues the skill and technique to master a course. At college, I earned a BS in Biology with a concentration in Chemistry, giving ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am passionate about education and ensuring that children can grasp the concepts that will make them successful later in life. In say this, I believe that all children have the capability to learn, just not necessarily in the same manner. Through my years of experience in teaching, I have learned to adjust styles to fit the needs of the student. I utilize positive approaches to learning, and have found that visual approaches really cement the data being related to the student.
As a Dual Master's degree graduate, I was very driven to achieve a level of excellence in education. I have earned two associate degrees, a bachelor's degree, and two master's degrees, which has given me a broad spectrum of experience in math, science, grammar, and business. During the last six years, I have taught college-level courses for Columbia College, and have tutored numerous students from elementary ... read more

I have earned two masters degrees, Ms in environmental Science and MS in Environmental biology. my course was interdisciplinary to much an extent during my bachelors and has thus exposed me to various fields of life sciences. I have written several research papers and have completed a master’s thesis research. This has enabled me to build good writing, research and lab skills. during my masters I had been tutoring junior students in labs and lectures for two years.
Teaching has been a passion for me since I was in middle school. I was blessed with good teachers who could very well explain me the basic concepts of science. It was here that I realized how important it was to have a good tutor, those who could captivate your interest. There have been times when I helped friends and class mates with Physics, chemistry, geography and biology during middle and high schools. I believe lea ... read more

I truly enjoy all aspects of education and have been a teacher at a number of levels and in different cities for eight years. I have taught students in K-12 as well as in college/university. My teaching and tutoring experience has been both one-on-one and small group settings. I have a B.S. in Political Science and History as well as multiple Masters degrees and a Ph.D. in ancient languages, literature, and history. In the last few years, I have tutored in three states (TX, KY, and FL), and two countries (USA and UK).
I have had the opportunity to help students both in a one-to-one and a small group setting. I quickly learn the student's learning abilities and the areas that need improvement. I use kinetic, visual, and auditory teaching methods. Since I have been tutoring at all levels and in most subjects for eight years, I have insight for where a student is and where the student ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Over the course of the past 10 years I have spent time working with students struggling to develop their academic skills, particularly in the areas of language arts and the social studies. From my initial work as a foster care academic transitions liaison,to the attainment of my M.ED., my broad service as a classroom teacher, department chair and A.P. program coordinator, I have been fortunate to work with students from across the broadest possible ability spectrum and have learned to sow the seeds of confidence and success in learners of all competency and motivational levels.
Due to my experience with a broad range of young learners, each working at a different academic and or cognitive pace, I follow a modified Socratic approach to both my classroom and one on one instruction by placing the emphasis on the student as we identify areas for growth. I then sculpt an academic progra ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the best way to teach a child or student is by listening to them first. By understanding what they see in the subject, I am able to put what they need to learn into perspective for them. Patience and a great listening ear is the best approach when it comes to communicating the right instructions.
During my last two years at Shorter University, I was employed by both the Shorter University Writing Center and the Shorter University Periscope (the newspaper). I spent those two years tutoring students on the composition and structure of essays, and helped them edit and proofread their work. As an editor for the newspaper, I was a mentor to all of my staff writers, as well as a contributor myself.
