Students generally perform better with hands-on practice. I provide multiple opportunities for hands-on and guided practice as time permits. Associate new concepts to familiar ones. Our memories are largely associative in nature. Therefore, providing connections from new concepts back to well established ones increases our retention and recall. This is especially important in building up understanding in mathematics. Provide relevant examples. A student who is actively enaged in the lesson will learn more.
For the past two years, I have been working as an adjunct instructor and tutor in mathematics and computer information systems for a local Community College. This experience has been so fulfilling, that I am diligently pursuing a career change from Information Technology professional to teaching. I also taught mathematics for one year at a private school.

I recently graduated and am working part time for a lab while I am continuing my education to get certified as a teacher. I hope to get a position as a biology teacher next year and tutoring would be a good way to get a bit more hands on experience teaching.
I have a 5 and 9 yr old sibling, I enjoy helping on school projects and helping with homework. While in college I often gave help to fellow students and aided in studying before exams.

I teach with the assumption that everyone can learn anything. At the core of my teaching philosophy is the mental model or concept. Consequently, my first goal is to determine if the student has a mental model of the subject matter. If not, I will guide them in discovering a useful one using their existing models and their preferred input mode (tactile, visual, etc.). If a student does have a mental model then I will test its accuracy using the standard procedures approved and or recommended by the institution of enrollment. Further encounters are then simply for reinforcement until the student is confident.
Over several years as a teacher, tutor, and teaching assistant I have had the privilege of refining my teaching strategy. For example, as a physics tutor, I coached a high school senior who was intimidated with the subject how to master it using a simple reproducible foundation ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with and teaching children of all ages. I believe that each child is unique and is capable of learning in his or her own unique way. As a teacher I do my best to discover how each child learns, and tailor my lessons to fit them so that the student gets the maximum amount of learning out of the lesson. I believe that with perserverence and a little bit of self esteem, any child can be successful.
I recently graduated the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a BS in elementary education. I student taught at Morehead Elementary school in kindergarten with Jeanelle Lindsay. During this time I also tutored third graders at Morehead. I have held several tutoring positions in both high school and college, and find great joy in working with children one on one. I have tutored elementary age, and some high school age students in math, science, reading/ englis ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy helping students reach their potentials as learners. I try to connect with the students I teach and cater to their individual learning styles. Working with an interested, capable educator can dramatically improve a student's performance. My teaching style is relaxed, patient and insightful. It is my goal to help students improve themselves by mentoring them in language arts and English and in improving their organization and study skills.
While in college I spent a year working as a writing tutor at my school's university writing center. After graduating cum laude with a degree in communications (and with a minor in English), I taught English as a foreign language for a year and a half in Chad, Africa, as a US Peace Corps volunteer. Following that, I substitute taught for a year at Saints Peter and Paul High School in Easton, Maryland(2006-2007). For the 2007-2008 scho ... read more
