I am a graduate of Tennessee Temple University, with experience tutoring at Tennessee Temple University, as well as University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, in various topics, including biodiversity, mathematics (up to pre-calculus), history, and American Sign Language. I continue to study in my personal time as many topics as possible, with the belief that a good tutor is firstly a good student. I allow my teaching style to mold itself to each individual student, finding methods of communicating the information that best suit the learning style of my student. I favor a holistic approach to learning, believing that education should be of the whole person. If a student learns how a skill in his tutoring session can be applied in real life, then his or her perception of the subject may fundamentally improve.

I believe that each child has a unique learning style or motivation trigger and it is the teacher or tutor's job to find what will encourage the child to learn. I desire to teach children but also to help them learn how to teach themselves. Prior to my relocation to the Jacksonville, Florida area I had completed my undergraduate degree and was working toward my Masters in Education for Middle School. During this period, I interned at a middle school and had worked as a substitute teacher. I have also worked in management and training.

I started tutoring in high school and all through college. When I tutored high school and middle school (usually math and science) I had a lot of experience with the subject matter. It made it easier to catch the mistakes. During that time I also taught well over a 1000 (no exaggeration) children to swim. Easy subject matter, but lots of different personalities overcoming a sometimes very difficult skill. Now I help the children I live with. One a very bright, yet lazy, 15 year old. A 13 year old with some learning challenges and a gifted 10 year old. With each I learn what mistakes they are prone to making. Patience and persistence trying to make them think through the question. When I first meet with a student I let them tell me what they know. In their own words about the unit or subject they are currently having trouble with. If I know how the instructor teaches the lesson I t

I have both the educational credentials as well as the work experience to be an effective tutor. As a professional, I have experience working in both the education and social work fields. This has given me a unique perspective on working with at-risk students. I have not only tutored and mentored elementary and middle school students, I have worked with them on goal-setting and behavior modification, provided counseling and family advocacy, and coordinated community services. My one and only passion has always been children. I strongly believe that every child should be respected and given an equal opportunity for success. In my experience, most children learn best through hands-on learning opportunities. Paper-and-pencil work has its place, however, I find it's important to provide other methods of teaching that cater to different types of learners such as kinesthetic and auditor

I like to teach using everyday life experiences and things that are relative to the tutee. One can read MacBeth and other writers from the past and still be motivated to learn. I don't believe in memorization because that is not learning. I want the child to carry his newly learned knowledge well into his future and always have it available in the back of his mind. It should not be forgotten but built upon. It's like building a brick wall, one brick at a time. It does take time but when that final brick is put in place, what a masterpiece! As a graduate of Jacksonville University, I feel I received an excellent education and want to give back to the community. There is not enough emphasis placed on education as it was during my growing up years. I fear that the focus has turned and it is centered on sports not academics. I feel there can be a happy medium reach in which students

As a graduate of a prestigious college, I was inspired to change my major from music education to elementary education. This choice was made due to the growing decline in students level of achievement in reading. I have my degree in elementary education and also a special certification from NASA with an emphasis in mathematics and reading. During the last eight years I have tutored students through after school programs,Sylvan Learning, and also through individual tutoring through my home. I enjoy teaching to the utmost level. I know my strengths lie primarily in students who are of the kindergarten through fourth grade levels. I feel students should have the opportunity to be themselves and is why I enforce a learning enviornment that is condusive to being independent learners.

Since I was young I've had a passion to help others learn. Anyone can learn something new on a daily basis even my self. You must remain teachable. I feel the best teacher also learns from their students. It is my thirst for knowledge that helps me keep up with the the world around me as it is ever growing and changing. I firmly trust upward movement in life and education especially. My moto is keep moving forward, to always do better than the day before. I will always try to provide students with their best way of learning rather it be hands on and actively doing or not. I'm more of a visual person so I try to create the best atmoshpere to most efficeintly utilize my skills coupled with their learning habbits.

I believe that any child can learn. Some children learn things more quickly than others and usually they need material repeated numerous times before they can grasp the concept. I believe that if the chid is not learning it is up to the teacher to re-evaluate what he/she is doing in order for the student to be successful. I enjoy it when I see my students making gains whether big or small. It is important to ensure that the students have good self esteem and have pride in their work. I taught for 2 years at the Jericho School for Children with Autism. I worked for 2 years for a private Behavior Management Consultants(they are located in Tallahassee) doing 1:1 home programs for children with Autism.
