Along with my passion for learning and my commitment to excellence, my love for teaching naturally overflows in tutoring. In my first linguistics class, I was approached by the teacher and asked to tutor while taking the class! I have since worked as a Teacher's Assistant for Linguistics, an ESL tutor with Journey's End Refugee Services,and a Humanities instructor and tutor in Lima, Peru. I lived and worked in Lima for three years and have native command of Spanish pronunciation, grammar and syntax. I have never received a grade below "A" on any written assignment throughout my college career.
I believe that learning should be fun! My goal as a tutor is not only to help students understand and retain information, but also to develop their learning abilities in ways that will equip them throughout their lifetime learning experience. I am focused on helping learners to discover their ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to work with students of all ages. I am a patient teacher and try to tailor my teaching style to the progress of my student. I prefer to promote understanding through the use of work sheets, tutorials, and real world examples, rather then simply relying on memorization. I have a good sense of humor and believe that constructive learning environments are both challenging and light-hearted.
I studied creative writing at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities in Greenville SC. There I studied poetry, play writing, grammar, editing, fiction, and creative nonfiction. I won two national scholastic writing awards for my writing. I also studied at Rice University which is a highly selective university in Houston Texas. I majored in sociology and also took many intensive English classes. While a student at Rice, I tutored several of my peers in both sociology and engli ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Four years ago, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from a local university. I received a BS in Rehabilitation Studies. This degree prepared me to work with our special population. My ultimate desire was to work with children. Therefore, I returned to UNCG and obtained my License in Special Education K-12. Over the past four years, I have successfully worked in the public school system. I teach at the elementary level which allows me to teach Math, Language Arts, Science and Social Studies. My favorite subject matter is teaching children to read! This past year I was a lead tutor after-school for Reading and Math.
Teaching is an exciting profession for me. I believe all kids including the most intellectually disabled can learn. I believe in setting high but realistic goals for students. Learning starts before children enter school and should be integrated between home and school. I am a ... read more

I am an college graduate from Bennett College in Greensboro NC with a bachelors degree in elementary education. My goal in life is to make a difference in a child's life. I want to make learning fun and interactive for my class in which I will use hands on activities to help with these goals.
I love working with youth. I have been working with children since the age of 14. I worked in various camps, tutored students younger than me. I am patient, willing to help students achieve their personal goals. I believe that our youth is very important to our future. We should teach them in the way that they will be successful in the future.

I love to work with the lower level students. I trust and know that anyone can learn, but not just at the same pace. I feel that lower level students are more of a challenge to me and it maks me feel good when I see them learn and move to a higher level of thinking. My goal is to see all my students work up to a level in which they believe will make a difference in their life. No matter how much time it takes, I will make sure that I give it my all to each student I teach.
As an undergraduate and graduate, I was always influenced to help others and strive for higher education. Being able to give back to those who want to move further in education is one thing that I love. My Grammar and reading skills are at the upmost high due to my love for teaching and learning English as well as my many hours of studying English. During the past four years I have taught English on all levels an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I began my teaching career by completing a two year course of study in Early Childhood and then worked as both a teacher and as a Director at a Parent Cooperative Day School until my own children were in Middle School. At this point I returned to College and graduated with a BS in Psychology and a minor in English. I continued on and received a NC teaching license from UNCG. I found my tutoring skills when my High School aged son was home bound by an illness and I home schooled him for most of his High School Years. He graduated from the University of VA with a PhD. recently and attributed his success in College to his home tutoring by his mother. I currently volunteer as a tutor for Americorp.
I am careful to assess where a child is functioning and start the learning process there. After assessment, I work on fundamental skills while at the same time slowly introducing new ski ... read more

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 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

First and foremost, I love working with students. I believe all students have an ability to learn once you find the way to connect with them. I think the key is in finding that particular connection because each student is gifted in his or her own special way. All people learn differently, and I approach teaching with this understanding and appreciation of the differences in all students and their backgrounds. I think students benefit from a sort of structured guidance that sets them on the right path to learning the material but gives them the room and freedom to feel a sense of empowerment through their own discovery of the embedded lessons. I believe this sense of empowerment and the building of self-esteem through successful learning is a key factor in helping students reach their full potential academically and in life.
In my educational and professional life, I have focused o ... read more

I have a BA in Theatre Arts, a minor in Dance, and have received a Montessori Certification from NAMC. However, I learned the fundamentals of teaching (being on time, prepared, patient, and encouraging) from my first job as a dance teacher while I was still in high school. After University, I taught ESL in Korea for three years, as well as developed curriculum for a set of nationwide schools. In addition to that, I tutored students privately outside of the classroom. Throughout my teaching experience, I interacted with a wide range of students with varying abilities. This, coupled with my education, has enabled me to become an experienced, creative, and innovative teacher.
I believe that first and foremost, teachers should inspire students to not only live up to their own potential, but to exceed their expectations and realize that they can meet and surpass any goal they set for th ... read more

I earned my Ph.D. in polymer chemistry from a prestigious academic institution in London, England, UK. My early education was in Bangladesh from where I earned a master and bachelor degrees with honors in chemistry. In addition to specialization in chemistry, I had passed degree level courses in physics and mathematics. These were requirements for B.S. Honors degree and have enabled me to gain an understanding in basic math and sciences. During my long professional life as an industrial and academic researcher in chemistry, I have learned advanced writing skills through research proposal and report writing. These are parts of principal job responsibilities. And, I found new college graduates were severely lack of these skills. I used these skills during mentoring my employees and during tutoring in my early college life.
I believe every child is uniquely different. Each has his/her ... read more

I was a student teacher while attending College for my BS in Biology and minor in Chemistry. In 1982-84 I taught Biology to pre-nursing students while attending school for Commercial Art at Fayetteville Community College. I coached personnel on computer skill (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) as part of my daily job. I speak, read and write Spanish, college level.
I believe working with children is best on a one to one basis. This provides the student special attention to fulfill their needs. I am a firm believer that building a positive attitude and self confidence will provide them with the desire to excel. I am versed in speaking in from of small to large audiences as my previous job demanded. I am patient, easy going but demand attention to achieve attainable results.
