American History is one of my top subjects!

I enjoy teaching any age student, but more than that I get satisfaction when that student attains their goal. I believe in using the Socratic method of teaching and allowing the student to get their own answers rather than just telling them. I seek to develop and foster great students who will attain excellent careers. This method can be adapted to fit any student of any age.
I started tutoring students middle and high school prior to graduating college. I have taught part-time college students at various institutions since 1996. I also have worked as an independent tutor part-time. I have more than 30 years of experience teaching as a one-on-one tutor and as a college instructor. I currently teach at Wake Tech Community College. I have taught at Strayer University, Campbell University, Mount Olive College, Durham Tech Community College, Central Carolina Community College and Vance ... read more

Soar to Success w/ an Experienced NC & NB Certified Teacher

I began teaching in 1976 in Tarboro, NC. My first teaching experience was in the middle school, grade 8. After that year, I taught fourth grade for 6 years. My next assignment was teaching at a junior high school grade 8 Language Arts, and grade 9 Basic English, and Diagnostic and Prescriptive Reading. This was followed by teaching middle school grade 6 for 5 years. After completing my Masters in Reading, I worked with the UNC-Chapel Hill Professional Development School supervising graduate students in Guidance, Psychology, and Education as well as teaching At-Risk readers in grades 1 and 2. The rest of my career was teaching Title 1 and ALP II in Wake County, and over 7 years grades 1 to 5, all content areas, in Durham County.
My teaching style is very flexible depending on the student. I select programs which best fits the student, rather than forcing a student into a spec ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a very flexible teaching style that differs with each student. I use real life examples to help the students understand the material.
I have 8 years of experience teaching Social Studies for schools in Washington, DC, Maryland, and North Carolina. I have also successful tutored students from grades 1-5 in Reading and Math for 1 year. While tutoring with Academic Achievement in Alexandria, VA, I successfully improved the test scores from the pretest to the posttest of my tutees.

Teacher with gentle touch - Very good at explaining new subj

Web manager and usability analyst as well as instructor. I have been asked at various jobs to teach training classes to my peers because of my ability to deliver an easy to understand lesson. I've been told I am very good at explaining a topic that someone has no experience with at all. I am on contract with NC States Computer Training Unit.
I try to find the teaching style that is going to work for the student. Are they visual? Do they need to touch to learn? Finding out how to teach them and then helping them learn skills for independent study are just as important as the material.

American History is one of my top subjects!

I graduated from Mount Union College in May 2006 with a BA in History and a double minor in Adoloescent to Young Adult Education and American Studies. Throughout high school I was a teacher's assistant helping with students in class during my study halls as well as working one on one with students for extra study skills. In the past few years I have tutored students in elemtary math, middle school reading and writing, and even my own students before and after school in social studies. I currently teach Civics and Economics which is an EOC course and I have taught this for 6 years now. Throughout those 6 years I have been able to successfully teach my students how to pass standardized tests and overcome testing anxiety.
I love tutoring students because through my experience I have learned that one on one time can be really beneficial to all students. During this time I am able to re ... read more

My comments on tutoring American History : I minored in history as an undergrad, and had a few courses in American history.

I finished as an undergraduate with a major in economics, and minors in history, philosophy and religion. Next I worked for a year as a political risk analyst for a large multinational company helping them evaluate risks inherent to investing in unfamiliar environments. I found I enjoyed the work, but wanted to get more economics training with the hope of teaching economics. I moved from the for-profit company to their non-profit foundation that sponsored economic research, and spent the next 4 years evaluating grants in the area of economics, public policy, law and political science. I always found that one of my favorite parts of my job was teaching those I supervised about economics and government. Accordingly, during that time, I began a doctoral program in economics on a fellowship. After spending a year in the program, I determined I was not as fond of academia as I initially belie ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an experienced tutor, trainer and teacher for students from six to 60, my background includes tutoring in reading, composition, spelling, and social studies for grade, middle and high-school students as well as professional sales and product training for adults. I enjoy working with students of all ages, but especially enjoy middle-school students who desire help with reading, writing, social studies and American history.
I work with each student, their parents, and, when necessary, their teachers, to develop personalized study plans based on areas of concern as well as short and long-term goals and objectives. Depending on the students, we will use a variety of tools including individual instruction, current assignments and worksheets to insure progress and success in meeting daily, weekly, and quarterly goals.

My comments on tutoring American History : Re-Colonial through 20th Century American History

My teaching style tends to change based on the student. I do my best to adapt to meet the different learning styles of the student. There is no one way to learn or teach, I do my best to meet the needs of the student.
I have over 15 years experience working in the research and information fields. I have worked as a public librarian helping students with research, works cited, and educating them on educational databases that can assist them with school. I spent 8 years as a media specialist in a lower and middle school. During my time in the school I helped students with research, paper writing, works cited, organizational styles, and even taught a yearly Russian history unit to the 7th grade students.

American History is one of my top subjects!

Although I have never tutored before, I love working with kids and have always had a knack for school, which I hope will translate well into tutoring ability. I feel comfortable stating that I can tutor reading, writing, geography, and history through the high-school level, and any subject at an elementary level. I also have a good deal of experience with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Power Point. I have a little volunteer experience assistant teaching children's art and cooking classes, and some babysitting experience.

More About This Tutor...

I was am American History tutor through the Academic Achievement Center at Bridgewater State College for my college career. I have also interned at the middle school level in high school to teach young children the wonders of history. I helped to tutor college students struggle to make the grade at the introductory history level. I have extensive knowledge in american history, specifically the civil war time period, as well as latin american history.
I believe the best aproach to teaching is by finding an area of interest and building off that interest. History can be brought to life through movies, music, literature and other materials to make it come to life.
