GED Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Brookside, AL

My personal style of learning is to learn by doing. I get my students involved in any process and get them to actually do the work so they learn it from experience, not just reading about it and taking for granted they know what is going on. Seeing the steps in action and seeing the final result brings a sense of accomplishment, which helps a student learn the correct way of doing whatever it is they are trying to learn. I have lead many training sessions dealing with a multitude of different topics. I do my homework, and make sure I am fully prepared before any training session. I want to make sure I know the answers to any possible question before the questions are asked. I have tutored students one-on-one and in small groups from different levels of math to every aspect of English, grammar, and writing. I have taught many classes in painting and drawing, and I am a constant stud

Through out junior high and I high school I have tutrored fellow students in the area of math, from basic to geometry, trig and calculus. I majored in computer engineering because of my love for math but I knew all the time that I should have been teaching. While in college I have continued to tutor whether it be grade school students or college students at home and over the phone. Math is my passion. Peole dont lean in the same ways. I take an individual approach. I get to know the person, ther likes and dislikes, which gives me some knowledge on how to approach the lesson. I love working with people. I love watching people learn it is a great accomplishment.

I have 20 plus years of teaching experience. I have worked with students from pre-school age to adults. I have taught students with a variety of disabilities and functioning levels from severely impaired to gifted. Many students struggle with relationships and well as their academics. I believe in creating a safe, nuturing environment were a student is able to work at his own pace, at his own level, and feel a bond with his teacher. Setting realistic and obtainable goals with the student is a key factor to success. Measuring and documenting progress allows student, teacher, and family to see a visual record of growth. Addressing multiple intelligences and multiple learning styles are essential for struggling students. Finding a student's best mode of learning increases self-esteem and time on task.

I enjoy working with students of all ages, although most of my experience has been with middle school age and older. I use a couple of different techniques to help students understand math, including using visual aides, problem solving techniques, role reversal (where they explain a lesson to me), blackboard/whiteboard work, and games. I believe it's really the responsibility of the tutor to understand the student's learning style and adjust the teaching to fit the learning style. I have tutored students in math and science (mainly math) for over 13 years. I have helped students in various levels of mathematics - basic math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. After working with me on a consistent basis (2/3 days/week) many of the students have received honors in their math courses, including "Most Improved" and "Highest Average". I am also proud to say that a couple

My desire is to help students reach their full potential. I make an effort to communicate with students, parents, and teachers to identify a student's weaknesses and assess their style of learning. I strive to make learning fun and enjoyable by giving encouragement and praise. I struggled in some math classes as a child, so I also seek to serve as an example that with hard work, determination, and dedication, academic success be achieved. Lastly, I am patient, kind, and enjoy working with students of all ages. I am a physician who loves to learn and wishes to help students achieve academic success. In addition to earning a Doctor of Medicine Degree, I also have a B.S. in Chemistry and a M.S. in Clinical Laboratory Science. I have experience in tutoring English, Reading, Math, and Science.

I obtained a bachelor of science in chemistry from the University of Alabama. But more importantly, i was deeply involved with cutting-edge scientific research throughout my undergraduate experience. In essence, I didn't just study to pass my exams, I studied to understand the material so that I can be able to teach someone else. I have also tutored introductory physics I and II at the university of Alabama center for Teaching and Learning. At first, I started out as a "typical" tutor - and had one-on-one tutoring sessions with college students. The session lasted about one hour per student. As time progressed though, i was assigned a classroom with up to 20 physics students at a time. Iattended to the students for 6 hours at a stretch. of course, they were free to leave when they felt confident about their coursework and other students replaced. I tutored for almost two years, not just

I love working with adolescents. I believe with all of my heart that each teen has the ability to accomplish great things with the proper motivation. I truly believe that children, teens as well as adults learn best by doing. I do not believe in teaching to a particular topic. I believe in teaching to the student and how the individual student learns. I want each one of my student's to succeed in their school environment as well as in their lives. Since January 2008, I have had the opportunity of tutoring at risk 9th, 10th, and 11th graders at Leeds High School's AVID (Achievement Via Individual Determination). I attempt to teach them critical thinking skills, reading skills, as well as studying skills. I have worked with the AVID program while I completed my Masters Program.

My teaching syle is on a personal one-on-one basis with instruction both thru lecture, hands on and multi-media applications. I believe students only learn thru a multi-level program. Lecture and memorization is not enough. Further, "teaching to the test" accomplishes nothing. Students must learn the content not just the basics. I have 25 years experience in accounting. Also hold a BA in Psychology, a BS in Education and currently finishing a M.Ed in Education at UAB with a 3.8/4.0 GPA. I also am a member of the Kappa Delt Pi Education Honorary and Golden Key International Honour Society. I taught in the Prince George's County, MD school system and also served as a graduate Assistant at UAB. I am a Quickbooks Advising Partner and also own my own accounting business.

Throughout my years of employment, I have had significant experience in the areas of science and medicine. Currently, I am an Anatomy and Physiology instructor at a community college. My laboratory experience includes being a laboratory technician for BioLife Plasma Services and research technician for University of Alabama at Birmingham. I graduated with honors, cum laude, with a B.S. degree in Biology. Furthermore, I finished medical school with honors and during my matriculation completed two years of clinical experience in the clinic and hospital setting. Effective teaching involves making sure that the student stays engaged in the learning process. Incorporating different teaching tools such as videos, figures, and real life examples not only enhances the likelihood of the student “getting” the material but also increases their probability of actually retaining it.

I believe that every student has the potential to succeed in the area of learning new knowledge. Therefore I like to use a diagnosis method to find out the best method to reach the student. The most important facet is to build a rapport with the learner. This method has served me and the students I have worked with well through the years. I have many years of teaching specialised reading to special needs students. I have experience in individual plans, diagnosing reading difficulties, task anaylsis in all areas of education. I have taught both general and special education, as well as youth at risk. I have a proven record of success

As a teacher I am proactive and progressive, while also being supportive and respectful within all educational environments. I understand that everyone is unique and everyone has their individual learning styles, therefore, I believe in facilitating student success through helping them find their individual learning strengths. I create curriculum and activities that are relatable and adaptable to a students interests and needs. I urge my students to become learners for life and I facilitate the skills to do so through active, creative, and engaging lessons. I am a graduate student currently earning a Masters Degree in Education from the University of Alabama Birmingham.

I truly enjoy teaching math and enjoy watching the 'click' when a student begins to understand the concepts. I believe many students have been erroneously convinced that "they don't get math" or that math is too hard. I believe in not just working through the problems at hand but in trying to help each student gain a better understanding of the thinking process involved in solving problems. Although proficiency comes through practice, there is more to math than just rote repetition. I began tutoring students in 1984 while working in the math lab as an undergraduate student at the University of Southern Mississippi. After completing my Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics with a general science minor, I had the opportunity to teach college algebra as a graduate teaching assistant. I have been tutoring/teaching mathematics and some sciences ever since. I have experience tutoring
