A Little Bit About Me...

As a Magna Cum Laude graduate,I have always loved knowledge and the beauty of learning. While at the University of Memphis, I tutored at a private school named The Neighborhood School, which provided services to low income families. This experience needed a person with an extensive background due to tutoring was required in all subjects. At the Families First Resource Center, a social service agency, I served a tutor for all grades K-12, any subjects necessary.
I believe that our children are our future. Without education to make children successful, our future will not be successful. Knowledge is the key to our success. Each child is unique. Everything is interpreted based on the interpreter. Sometimes, tutoring is necessary. I always look for alternatives to traditional teaching styles. Teaching is not just another job. Teaching or tutoring requires a love for learning and childr ... read more

As a graduate from the University of Phoenix I understand the importants of higher education. I have earned a bachelors degree in Pychology/Education, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math, science, and reading.

I love teaching and working with children, I believe all children can learn, but in different ways.

I believe students must do thier best and to get there they might learn it in a different way. I like to use real life to show way it is important to unerstand ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I'm a recent graduate of Rust College. During my years at college I tutored in subjects as biology, basic math, college algebra,English literature, and also was a co-judge for a local junior high science fair. During the summer of 2009, I did my internship with the Ronald E. McNair program at the University of Mississippi. This program focused mainly on research based studies with a chosen graduate professor.
I'm an assertive motivator. Learning should not be repulsive, children love to learn by examples that they can relate to. I find the opportunity to combine the likes and dislikes of the student and mold them into a constructive solution. Using metaphors and similes are more of my specialties. The style is strict, but the concepts are easier. When the task is completed, the student will say I was tough but with a caring aftereffect.

I believe that all children are teachable! Every person, each child, is unique and it is my responsibility to evaluate and determine the most appropriate learning style of each student. When students are instructed in their preferred learning styles, they flouish! A good, quality educator takes time to accomodate each students weaknesses and talents. Everyone excels at something! It is my role as a teacher to find that spark of excellence and build upon it. I am capable of making a positive impact on a child's life. That's my goal!
Since my graduation from Ole Miss in 1985, I have had the delightful experience of teaching children from all walks of MS. The children of MS have a thirst for knowledge that is rarely discussed in the media. Our children want to learn! I've instructed every grade level from K-8, inclusive, tutored Pre-Alg,Alg I, and admin correspondence courses ... read more

Teaching and working with all types, ages of students is a great thrill for me. I am very patient and very good with one on one or group teaching, and I find it to be very fulfilling and my duty to see that the students are learning and progressing in their various subjects. I will work my hardest to see that the students see results and are happy with the service being provided to them. My teaching style is tackling the work head on while making the experience fun and applicable to the class room setting. I have worked with many children in the past both in tutoring as well as through summer camps and know how to handle myself in any situation that may present itself. I truly feel that I am up to any challenge, and am highly motivated.

I love working with students and seeing their joy when something finally clicks. I believe learning must be a concrete process with plenty for the students to touch and manipulate in order to succeed. It's impossible for a teacher to use only one strategy because children all learn different. To be effective, a teacher must get to know the students and figure out what helps them then stick out that path. I have always worked to make a difference in the lives of my students by finding why the material is not clicking for them. It's the goal of education to make sure each child is getting what they need, not just receiving a generic curriculum the teacher refuses to deviate from, so that all students can succeed.
As a student, I always tried my hardest and sought out opportunities to work with children in a variety of settings. I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Educatio ... read more
