A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that true education requires your child to synthesize the material, not merely memorize answers. As your child's tutor I will seek to provide them guidance and instruction to help them solve problems and learn material on their own. Not only will your child learn the material, but my goal is to teach them how to learn so that they can achieve success not only with a tutor now, but long into the future.
I believe education is primarily about learning, not merely making a grade. As I applied this philosophy in college, I realized that where true learning occurs good grades follow. I completed a bachelor's in accounting summa cum laude in 2009. In addition to my major focus in finance and business, I completed a minor in History and took an extensive number of English courses as well. The broad liberal arts framework for my college curriculum taught me not only specific subj ... read more

As a graduate of Northern Illnois, and with currenty enrollment in NC Teach at Western Carolina a commitment to excellence in education would be an understatment. With twenty-one credit hours in education related course from Illinois, I wanted to further perfect my teaching talents by getting a Master's in Teaching through the NC Teach Program.
I teach in a style that relates to the students current conditions. Each lesson is tailored to bring reality, and importance to their lives while not challenging their autonomy. It is critical to get each student to understand the far reaching importance of historical events, and how they still effect today's atmosphere. I use various graphic organizers to break down each historical event we talk about, and candid discussion gaging the depths of comprehension.

More About This Tutor...

My freshman year at Clemson I tutored 7th graders in math. I was also a tutor in high school for a k-6 school for children with low-income families. It has always been a passion of mine to help others with grasping a subject.
My favorite part of tutoring is working with children who are frustrated with a subject and being able to break it down and teach it to them in a way that they can relate to. Also, the self-confidence the student gets that comes from being prepared for a test is very important.

More About This Tutor...

I am a graduate from Winthrop University. I double majored in Business management and financial planning. I have the knowledge to tutor someone in Finance and any other Business related topics. I am currently enrolled in the Masters in Public Administration at Clemson University. I have experience in mentoring programs with previous jobs as well as the organization, Big Brothers Big Sisters.
My teaching/mentoring style would be to build the child up in everything that they do. Being a positive teacher with an uplifting personality can help a child learn much better than if they are belittled. I believe that there are no “stupid questions” and the only way to learn anything correctly is to ask!

A Little Bit About Me...

An HBCU graduate, I was exposed to diversity across the board and competitive atmosphere to achieve. I have earned my bachelor degree, BS in Accounting that has given me the opportunity to utilize my dexterities in various areas. Furthermore, I have gained a sharper analytical persona, to be able to develop and process solutions that may occur in the day-to-day assignments in small and large corporations. Throughout the past 2 years I have tutored students in mathematics, English, Global Studies, and psychology.
Theirs no better is feeling that I get from teaching children. Each child that I encounter learns in different ways and environments, but they crave for that knowledge. I am patient, easy going (also assertive), and tactful. My objective is to give my best teaching to a child that is hunger. I believe that a pupil learn well by constructive illustration and experiences th ... read more

I have learned a graet deal through speaking to high school athletes and their parents about the college recruiting process. I've learned how to relate to the kids on their level and attention spans while still being able to get my message across to them. I can help get the kids motivated to want to study while helping them understand the material and be able to retain it for tests. I'm new to tutoring but have received lots of positive feedback from families who I've spoken to about college recruiting so I believe with my academic background I will be able to make a difference in a kids life through his or her studies. I can also tutor adults who are working to acquire their GED or ones that be struggling with college courses.

I believe in good classroom management and organized lesson plans. I set appropriate boundaries and expect the students to follow the rules that are set before them. That being said I try to make the learning as fun as possible but organized. I also try to bring in anything that they are interested in to make them enjoy the subject they are learning. If I can find an example in life they can relate to that will help them learn something I will find it and bring it in. I love working with children and really love math.
Although I have been self employed for the last 6 years, I went back to school last year to add Science and Math for middle school to my certification. I passed the Praxis for both of those subjects spring of 2010. I was not able to get a full time teaching position this year. I went back to working for myself but would love to tutor.

I personally prefer one on one interaction for tutoring . I would first determine areas which need to strengthened. ThenI would emphasize these areas in the instruction process.Then I would assign work (exercises,problems,questions). These would then be reviewed to determine the students grasp of the material.These areas would be worked on until the student had an adequate grasp of the material. Accounting is a subject that is learned by doing.Certainally a student has to read the material,but actual hands on doing is where real learning and retention take place.Most of my tutoring hs been volunteering , but generally with minimal instruction those I have assisted have increased there scores 15% to 20%.

I truly believe that every student has the opportunity to perform well academically. While school comes naturally to some, others need someone to come beside them to help them learn. The best educators create an environment where students discover and explore. I will strive to create that environment by asking questions that allow students to come to answers for themselves. I also have the personal qualities that are necessary to tutor successfully. I understand how frustrating struggling academically can be. I can be patient empathize with students. I love seeing individuals succeed. Learning not only provides students with knowledge, but also can provide the self-confidence that will allow them to be successful in life.

I understand that any child can run into problems with schoolwork. I try to find out why the child is having a problem before trying to help them. Did he miss something and fall behind? Is she simply bored with the subject? The approach I take with the child depends on the answers to these questions. I feel it is important for the learner to understand that there is a reason for making the effort to learn each subject. In math, I like to assign the numbers and equations to subjects the learner likes, such as pizza, sports or music, for example. I also find it is beneficial to make references to the different careers one might use the knowledge learned in the child's classes.
