Teacher that loves to help students achieve the highest goal

Assessment of teaching effectiveness The two words that best describe my teaching style are adaptive and creative. During class time, I expose students to various stimuli that allow them to drive their own learning. I use the following: • Show media & movie clips (To aid visual learners). • Written homework assignments (To inspire reading/writing oriented learners). • Music to help students understand abstract concepts (This approach benefits auditory learners). • Lecture using a Socratic method for all students. I believe my classes are 80% student driven and 20% instructor driven. I have always approached the process of teaching with a facilitator’s mindset. Clearly, each course has overall learning objectives, but the process to achieve those objectives can be hindered or advanced by the instructor’s skill at being a resource to empower versus creating dependency.

A Little Bit About Me...

With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals and entire classes. I have taught middle-grades Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science, High School English, and reading and writing to adults. I also designed English and French curricula and lessons for my students in my Peace Corps service country of Palau. My many years living and working overseas have afforded me perspective on the world that comes in handy when working with students, as I am able to offer personal anecdotes and cultural knowledge about global matters to supplement their academic investigations.
With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I was selected, by the International Teachers Abroad Program at Vanderbilt (ITAP), to teach graduate level, teaching assistants, how to enhance their ability to communicate in English and to communicate their subject matter to undergraduate students. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, I began working full-time at a modern-day orphanage. This 12-year experience gave me plenty of opportunities to expand my skill set with special needs and at-risk, male youth. In addition to tutoring, I train in the areas of broadcast production and editing as well as business development.

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subjects. After earning my bachelor degree in biology, I worked as an educator at the South Carolina Aquarium where I taught interactive classes to kindergarten, middle school and high school students. I also worked for the Leadership Development Program at the College of Charleston where I co-facilitated student leadership classes. And most recently, while in graduate school I held a teaching assistant position and tutored freshman and sophomore college students in topics related to international development.
My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible for anyone to learn; some people just have to take a different approach to get to their objective. I love the entire learning and teaching process, and I am pretty fond of people as well!
I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an experienced tutor and trainer, I have been exposed to several learning styles and have adapted my instructional techniques to optimize the potential of the learner’s experience. Consequently, the most effective tutoring style has been of the multiple intelligence nature. It takes into consideration that every learner is not the same and a “cookie cutter” solution cannot address the challenges of every student. Therefore, I have adopted an instructional style that collaborates with the learner and is learner focused allowing for the learner to become empowered.
I have been in the Financial Accounting, Information Systems and Business Administration arena for over 15 years of which training has served as the catalyst for my passion as an educator. I have since pursued my master’s degree in education and plan to become an instructor on a full time basis. In addition, the scope ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in TESOL. While a senior in college, I taught an intermediate ESL class for a semester and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also minored in Business/Office Administration and took specialized classes in Windows Vista and Microsoft Office programs. In addition, I have taught beginner and intermediate private piano lessons for two years. I also acquired some experience with special needs when I worked after school as a personal aide to a non-verbal teenage girl with severe autism.
I have taught a variety of skills and ages, from 1st graders in piano lessons to elderly adult immigrants learning the English language. I have a desire to meet people on their level and encourage them grow. I strive for an atmosphere that is both positive and structured that is a help to both my students and their parents.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is simple yet very effective. I try to understand the student in terms of habits and overall view of learning and development. I believe that effective learning process cannot be achieved via a 'one-size-fits-all' and spending the time to understand the student goes a long way in making them feel comfortable and mentally ready to learn. With that said, I also believe in making the process fun yet effective. There is an abundance of tutors available and who are very knowledgeable in their areas of expertise. However, only a few can effectively transfer knowledge to someone else who is not at the same level. I am one such tutor who knows what it takes to make that successful 'transfer'.
As a professional, I have a history of progression within all organizations that I have been employed. My passion for excellence in education is fueled by the numerous indiv ... read more
