I am quite flexible. I think every person learns differently and no singular method should be applied to when it comes to tutoring; this is not an assembly line. I would take things on a case by case basis and adapt as needed, ensuring the student is getting the best possible help that I can offer him or her. I am an English major at the University of South Carolina Beaufort in my final semester of study and will be graduating in December with a BA and a concentration in writing. Though I have never formally been a tutor, I have always been the person that my friends have gone to for help with composing papers, interpreting and analyzing passages of literature, and general study skills for how to improve their writing and/or reading abilities. I am a member of my university's varsity softball team, and I have helped a lot of my teammates on long bus rides to games delve into a passage of

I have always believed in "connecting the dots." Knowledge and learning cannot be strictly confined to subject-area teaching. For example, many academic subjects can be studied while one writes, makes art, to creates stories, practices problem solving, or invents solutions to problems we are facing in this modern age. Listening to students and providing opportunities for them to demonstrate knowledge is very important. I never want learning to bore a student. Once understanding is achieved, that knowledge should be put to use and new challenges should be introduced. I began teaching Art to middle school students within the public school system in 1989. I began working with elementary grades in 1991. I began to pursue a master's degree in Education in 2007 through the University of Phoenix (UoP). The online experience and consistent communication with my instructors and classmates were i

I am a teen girl that makes straight A's in school. I started tutoring in 3rd grade by tutoring my niece that was currently in 2nd grade.

i match my style to the student. I challenge them without overwhelming them, and encourage them to build on their strengths. As an example, I frequently had to change my style with students of multiple cultures. I am very patient and easy going, and see the best in everyone.

I always make the attempt to reach the individual, and praise each of my students, even in a classroom setting. I explain that I only know the person/student that he or she shows me. I have had tremendous success with, and great feedback from, my students. I believe that providing a positive, comfortable atmosphere, the student is better able to focus on the subject. I seem to have worked in the education field from the very beginning. I started out in preschools, and most recently have been teaching at the college level. I have taught every age in between. I am very skilled at not only grammar, but also the elements of composition.

I enjoy teaching and working with students from age 4 through 40 and have worked with students throughout that range. I believe that patience, integrity and compassion are the best communicators to students, particularly in subjects they struggle with, and I believe that every student can succeed, if they are willing to make the effort. My goal is to adapt material and present information in the method the student can best understand and I strive for the flexibility to create a learning environment that is comfortable for each, individual learner. I am dedicated to providing the best possible learning experience for every student I work with, and to helping each student reach their full potential. Since childhood, I have worked to help students improve their skills at reading, writing, public speaking or any other subject I could offer help with. In May, 2009, I received my BA in English

I enjoy working with middle and high school age students. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time teaching and I love helping students understand more in their English classes. I am very passionate about reading and proper grammar and get so happy when I see a student's face light up in understanding of a new concept. If the first method I use to teach a new concept doesn't work, I try a different approach to make sure all students are able to understand. I earned a bachelor of science degree in Adolescent/Young Adult English/Language Arts Education from Miami University in December 2008. I then taught tenth, eleventh and twelfth grade English for six months, from January to June 2009. During the 2009-2010 school year I have been substitute teaching in both middle and high school. I am currently in a freshman English classroom for seven weeks while the full-time teacher is out on maternity lea
