Spelling Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Brandon, MS

I have taught a mixture of 9th, 10th, and 11th grade English over the past 4 years. Teaching is a second career for me and is something that I absolutely love! Being able to help children read, comprehend, and prepare their minds for the future is so rewarding. Much of my experience is in the state tested area of English, focusing heavily on grammar and reading comprehension. Reading is a huge past-time of mine and something that I heavily incorporate into my classroom.

I believe sometimes it is the teacher failing not the student. To become a Doctor we don't always have a choice. i was blind in my left eye and completed on a level equal to all other students. Now they call them special needs. I believe in cognitive dissonance is best way of knowing the retention is high.

I am a veteran Teacher of Mathematics; I have been affiliated with the Jackson Public Schools District approximately twenty (20) years or more, serving in various positions as a Limited Substitute Teacher in Mathematics (primarily), English and JROTC as well. My field of expertise is prealgebra, algebra I and Geometry. I am also proficient in the teaching of English and Preparatory Writing in which I taught on the college level as an instructor here locally. My 'love-affair' with Mathematics began when Iwas a very young student in elementary school at Smith Robertson (now a museum), where I was blessed to have been exposed to and taught by some of the best and brightest teachers. I was taught the basic rules of mathematics (done manually; no such animal as a calculator at that time). Afterwards, upon entering middle school, I was introduced to higher level math due to my academic abi

I have taught middle grades from 1998-2003. I have taught special education to special adults from 2003-2011. In this last teaching job, I had a few individuals who I helped with some classes of the GED through the Rankin County Schools. I love teaching kids and adults and love working to see each one of them grow in their own way. Each person learns in a different way and it takes special people to work with them.

I prefer inquiry based learning in which I utilize the facilitator and "personal model" methods to help students improve their independence, increase their confidence to explore subjects independently, and show them first hand how to comprehend concepts I've been a tutor for the past 8 years. I started tutoring/teaching as a college student, and I've loved every moment. It's so rewarding to see a student's growth in a subject area. I've provided Praxis and ACT prep to students as well as provided help for subject are state tests such as Biology and U.S. History. I love all math and science related subjects and excel at helping students relate to them.

As we continue learning in the 21st century it is obvious how cutting edge technology, child’s learning style, and a child’s personality temperament all play a role in a child’s success in their success in life. Gaining or not developing these skills will ultimately influence their ability to graduate or not graduate from a good college and be a successful person in society. My job as your child's tutor is to be technology savvy, the ability to teach your child emotional intelligence through social modeling, identifying your child’s learning style and implement age and developmentally appropriate learning strategies that will help guide your child in their lifelong journey of learning. As a graduate in Counselor Education from a Private Christian University it has been my observation that the ability to grasp new concepts, possess moral values, developing emotional intelligence, learn

I have always had a passion to help all children. I believe I can help them discover things they did not know about themselves whether it be personal experience or not, but discovering the possibilities an education is great success! My personal goals and expectations for the upcoming year are to facilitate personal growth by sharing knowledge I have gained the previous year. I also want to challenge my mentees to think in new and different ways. It is not only my goal to challenge my mentees but to also enhance my skills; strengthening them daily to bridge the gap and create a legacy as a mentor. As a Tougaloo graduate and being a tutor over the years has provided an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of many children.
