Equipping, Movtivating & Stimulating Minds!

I help others become their best selves. I enjoy teaching and tutoring youth and adults. Over the years, I have had opportunities to not only mentor and tutor youth, but to teach and tutor adults, as well. I have experience teaching and tutoring the following subjects: (1) Language Arts/Reading; (2) Language Arts/Writing; (3) Social Studies; (4) Basic Math (Whole Numbers, Fractions, Decimals, Percents and Pre-Algebra); (5) Creative Writing; and (6) Environmental Education. I have experience helping adult learners pass the GED Exam.
When teaching, I take the time to learn my students' personalities and strengths. Then, I tailor a strength-based approach to teaching my students new concepts and ideas. I usually incorporate a mixture of traditional and non-traditional teaching techniques in my lesson plans. I provide structured opportunities and supports for my students to apply w ... read more

Individualized learning/teaching for optimal comprehension

I started tutoring in my teens helping young children with Autism Spectrum Disorders develop English and Math skills as well as speech therapy and public speaking. I tutored my fellow students while attending Carroll Community College in English 101 and 102 as well as Creative Writing. I then moved on to being a one on one with high school students with special needs in the Baltimore area.
I take a hands on material approach to learning/teaching. I feel that young students learn best when they can physically learn, such as through blocks/puzzles/interactive learning devices and other similar approaches. I try to let the student use their hands as much as I can to aid in their learning process. For older students such as my high school students or their college counterparts I use more direct audial teaching and visual teaching styles. Every person learns differently, so I cater my t ... read more

I believe that all students want to learn and feel successful. I also believe that all students can learn so long as the materials are available to them in a form that is most compatible with their individual learning styles. My most important charge, along with helping those I tutor to "get" the materials, is to help them analyze their own styles of learning, identify what is successful for them and what is not, and help them create new strategies which might meet with more consistent success, both short and long term. For students who have not learned their own best ways to learn, this step is a crucial foundation for all future academic successes.

I try to guide the student to find a personal understanding of the concept. It is one thing to explain a point of difficulty to the student, but it is preferable for the student to be led to an intuitive understanding. It is my goal in teaching to facilitate the student in finding this type of understanding.
I have gained a solid understanding of many disciplines of math and science through my study of Physics. I have honed my writing and general English skills through the writing of laboratory reports, essays, and the completion of a thesis project. I have more than six years of experience tutoring students in math, science, history, and English.

More About This Tutor...

I love learning and helping others learn too! Learning is the key to knowledge and also the key to being a successful and well-rounded individual in society. I believe each person has the potential to learn and achieve great things and I'm here to help people get there. I have worked with students ranging in ages from Kindergarten to High-schoolers. My goal in being a tutor is to help students make the subjects and things they are struggling with into strengths. I enjoy using a variety of teaching styles from memory games to physical activities and reviewing homework. I want to help you the student in a way that fits your learning style. I also strive to make a difference in the lives of my students and allow the students to help me continue to learn and grow.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that every child has a right to learn. I believe that, no matter what kind of problem or learning disability that student has, that he/she deserves to learn. It is the responsibility, not only of the teacher, but the parents, grandparents, siblings and community to help children receive the best education that they can. I believe that all children learn differently. Some learn through doing; some through listening; others are a combination. I teach to each child in the way that best helps them to learn.
While completing my masters in Special Education, I have learned creative ways to help children with special needs that I work with. I have designed and coordinated a Resource Center to help students with special needs learn and achieve at their level. I have also designed and implemented a school for children with special needs.

More About This Tutor...

My "ace in the hole" in teaching is the fact that I care for students and they know it. I do make it well known that I am there to teach; not be their friend (or their parent!). I typically set the limits, introduce the lesson, focus on learning the content, and be attentive to individual needs. Assessment is done through answering and asking questions. Also, reviewing and an extended assighnment is used to reinforce learning. My overall goal as a teacher is to guide a student to be an independent learner and to develop a love for education.
I have been involved with youth since completing Bible College in 1978. I have two grown children who both completed college (my daughter cum laud in chem; University of Kentucky). I also have two step children; ages 12 and 10. I have been a qualified substitute teacher for the last 4 years, so have a working knowledge of state standar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned my Masters Degree in Business Management/Business Administration later in life. I always felt that it was very important to try to improve one self and to help those who are in need of help. I think is very important to strive to ensure that every child has the chance to be the best that they can be and have the best education they deserve.
I love teaching and working with all children. I have always wanted to be a teacher, but life happened and I was married living half way around the world in another country constantly moving. I beleive all children can learn it just may take someone to give them a little help and direction.

More About This Tutor...

In 2002 I went back to school to earn my bachelor's degree so I could continue on with my Masters. Two years later I graduated with my Master's of Education in Counseling. A situation came into play at the school and I was asked to "fill-in" for a 7th grade Language Art Teacher. She never returned and I taught the classes from October until the end of the school year. Our DSTP percentage for passing increased, and I have had many students come back to ask me for additional help.
I enjoy being around the students. I wake up every morning wanting to go to work. There are so many students that learn in many different ways and I have always structured my lessons to try to reach all of those students. I have many hand-on activities and also power-point lessons. The day that the teacher sits behind a desk and has the students reading from books are long over. I am very active in ... read more

During my undergraduate career, I student taught ninth grade English at Glasgow High School. I taught five 9CP courses and 1 SAT Prep course. So I have experience working with students and I am very skilled in teaching English Language Arts concepts.
I believe that each student brings something different to the classroom. In my classroom, I want to foster the students' ideas and thoughts. I want the students to have a sense of pride in their thoughts. I am aware that students have different learning styles, so I am capable of altering my own style to make sure each student grasps the concepts that I want them to learn.

More About This Tutor...

As a History graduate, I fascinated and intriqued with the how powerful lessons of American History can relate to students of all walks of life. At Delaware State University, I double majored in Animal/Poultry Science as well as History because of the natural science aspects of the curriculum. I am a seasoned researcher, writer, and speaker. Infact, I know 2 other languages; French and Spanish.
I love all sorts of positive ideals of teaching, especially when the teacher gives students the power to teach themselves by relating everyday experiences, such as sights and sounds with different lesson planners. I understand how the human works in a classroom, some students will grasp concepts because of their up bringing and the results of having a balance home. Others will sometimes wander off, mentally because of attention. There are other cases, but I believe every child needs a fair c ... read more

Teaching, to me, is an inspirational profession. Teachers must be inspired and inspire others. I draw my inspiration from my students. If my students are inspired, they will actively learn and begin to inspire others. With passion, students will begin to see themselves accomplish their goals. This will only have a positive effect on them and those around them, whether it be in the classroom, at home or out in the community.
I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Sociology with a concentration in Political Science and Spanish. I currently hold a valid state of Florida teaching license (K-6). I have four years of experience in the classroom, specifically 5th grade. I have a passion for helping others and feel this quality is essential for the challenging job of ensuring that every child, no matter their background or circumstance, receives an outstanding education.
