More About This Tutor...

I have been working as a Substitute teacher for the last six years in Georgia as well as in the State of Washington. As my resume will indicate, I have experience at tutoring in the four major core subjects (Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies). I recently moved back home to the Wilson area after more than 30 years. I attended Elvie Street Elementary, 1963-67, Coon Junior High 1968, Darden High School 1970-71, Fike High School 1972-73 and graduated from Elm City High School in 1973. So you see, I am back home to stay and have an invested interest in ensuring that the student in this area get the best educational advice that we can give them.
My teaching metaphor is one of being a person of integrity and honesty. Because of my broad knowledge of the different levels of the educational field, especially special education and early childhood, I feel as if I would be an ass ... read more

I am able to diagnose weak points in the student's knowledge and remedy those weak points so that the student is better able to have a full understanding of the content. I believe that most academic difficulties come from small gaps in knowledge and a misunderstanding of how parts relate to the whole.
I have been a counselor in the public schools for the past 16 years, both at the elementary and high school levels. I have tutored students in many subjects; ranging from 3rd grade math to advanced algebra to US History.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching philosophy is simple and contains three parts. Part one: The concept or topic is easy, regardless of what it is, it just must be broken down to its most basic elements. This is my job to do for the student. Once this is done for the student it will be shown that the perceived “complexity of the subject” is simply a compilation of basic elements of the subject, from here the topic can be built upon to more advanced levels; I am convinced this idea is not subject dependant. Part two: The student must decide that he or she can and will understand the subject matter and be successful in it. This too is a part of my job to encourage, motivate and instill confidence in the student. Part three: Practice, practice, and after that more practice. I will teach and encourage the student to constantly work on his or her new skills in the subject matter and as always review his or h ... read more

Education is my life. From a very young age, I loved school and learning. It all started with my brother and his learning disability. I tutored him all throughout his academic career. In college I tutored elementary students through the CARE program. I then decided to be an English Education major and have been teaching ever since. Currently, I am finishing my graduate work at East Carolina University and working on the addition of TESL on to my teaching license. As a lifelong learner, I understand the importance of education and on researching the best methods of teaching to all students.
I want to teach students about themselves, others, and the world around them through literature and learning experiences. All information is presented in ways that all students can relate and understand core concepts to be successful in the classroom and in life. The most important achievement in ... read more

I love teaching and watching students learn and grow. I feel that tutoring gives, a teacher, an opportunity to give a child one-on-one attention, therefore, enhancing one's potential at learning. I believe, that as children are our future, it is our responsibility to prepare them to be productive and useful citizens.
I began my work, with youth, in 1983 when I worked with incarcerated youth at the Highland Youth Center in upstate NY. I later taught high school social studies at Mount Vernon, HS in Mount Vernon, NY where I also tutored after school. I eventually traveled to Benin, West Africa where I taught at a local British School and taught and tutored at the American Language Center. I have experience teaching diverse populations.

As an Exstension Safety Specialist, I have had the opportunity to provide youth and adults with needed information to effect a positive change in their lives. Many of the programs involving these clients were requested by the recipients based upon their needs. It was my responsibility to develop various ways for them to reach their goals.
I love to involve children in learning exciting and useful information. I use many different ways, sometimes just talking and gleaning what is on their minds, then planning learning experiences that address these topics. I strive to reach all of my students as they try to gain useful information.

Education is the central focus of my everyday life. I have obtained a BS in Management-Health Care/HR and 5 Associate degrees in Business Administration, Administrative Office Technology, Medical Office Technology, Legal Secretary, and College Transfer. I have been homeschooling my son since 2006 and mentoring students through a local church for just as long. In addition, I tutored in 1990-1991 and 1994-1997 while in college to earn extra money. I have assisted students with Mathematics, English, Science, Social Studies, and Mental Health issues. I have published my own poetry and have written a novel which I will publish soon. I am very well-spoken and do well correcting grammatical and spelling errors of students.
I have a natural passion for educating youth of all ages and find joy in helping them succeed. No child is unreachable when it comes to connecting with them. The only t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of the Air Force Academy and Harvard Business School, I know what it takes to achieve excellence in education. I have earned advanced degrees in Engineering and Business. My love of teaching and coaching brought me back to the Air Force Academy to coach and tutor college athletes in math, science, English, and French. I also have extensive writing and speaking experience and have helped many students with college essays and applications.
My teaching style adapts to each individual I work with. I believe that one of the most important things to helping anyone learn is to instill in them the confidence that they can be successful. I believe that there are lots of different ways to learn, and I like helping people figure out what works for them. If someone wants to be successful and is willing to put in the work, I will find a way to help them achieve their goals.

I believe that all students have the ability to learn. The key is that all students learn in different ways. I believe in working through different approaches (hands-on, visual, creative, etc) until finding the one(s) that work for each individual child. I am patient and considerate of student needs. My goal is to make a difference in students' lives so they realize that education is actually not a burden but something that gives them freedom.
I have taught high school English at SouthWest Edgecombe High School for the past two years. In addition to teaching the writing test to tenth grade students there, I also taught eleventh and twelfth graders. During the past three months, I have been working at South Central High School in Greenville as a long term substitute while waiting to move to Raleigh. There, I worked with students preparing for the SAT and in creative writing. I have ... read more
