I have taught and tutored since I was sixteen. I currently teach for USC, a few online universities, Syl. Learning Center, and am a Professional Writing Tutor. I teach all grades and university levels, but my specialties are AP Courses and university courses. I have taught everything from 4 yr olds phonics to College level writing and literature to basic maths and sciences to Calculus and Trig. I try to me more personable than most instructors. Many students simply need another approach to a subject to understand the material. I actively find that perfect approach for an individual student.

Learning about the students I teach and listening to their experiences helps me to consider ways of making course material relevant and fostering critical thinking skills. I am passionate about finding the most effective ways of stimulating and sustaining growth among those who enter my classroom. As a teacher, I am attentive to the fact that learning is a complex process and work to be flexible, adapting my approaches according to the needs of my students. I believe it is crucial for teachers to cultivate learning partnerships with students. Teaching is empowering students to take responsibility for their learning, inspiring courage to grow intellectually, cultivating curiosity, providing opportunities to develop relationships, clarifying values, uplifting the spirit, and influencing action. I have been employed as a dedicated educator for the past four years. During this time, I h

As a Business Education teacher in the classroom, I also have experience with home based instruction for special education and working with at-risk middle school students in an after school program. I have taught four years in middle school; this school term (2010-2011), I will be teaching part time high school computer education in the mornings from 7:00 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. and will be available afternoons. Although Business Education is my certification, I have experience teaching Mathematics, ELA, Science, Reading, and Art in the home and after school. I enjoy working one-on-one with students and believe all students should have every opportunity to learn in the most comfortable environment. As a teacher, classroom experiences have made me realize all students do not learn the same fashion. Some students are more aggressive and advanced but there are those who are silent and wi

I cherish working with youth in the community. I am patient, optimistic, and creative when it comes to working with adolescents. Learning is fun and excited if the child is willing to put their best effort into getting the work done. I strongly believe children work at their own pace which makes it comfortable for them to learn. Having a mentor to encourage the child to learn will benefit them in the future. My motive is P.U.S.H. Push Until Something Happens. I have a passion with working with youth at risk, and adolescents with behavioral and emotional problems in a residential treatment setting of 6 years. I have been a teachers aide working with this type population in a self structure educational atmosphere.Prior to going off to college I have tutored children in my neighborhood and summer camps in math, science, english etc. I earned a BA in Social Work from Livingstone College and

The ability to demonstrate interpersonal skills and team leadership: I meet this qualification in such that it was demonstrated while working with the Los Angeles County Probationary Department as well as working with the youth in my church. I would counsel approximately two students per week and meet with about twenty to thirty on a Thursday evening on a volunteer basis for the Los Angeles County Probation Department. I also had an assistance to work with me and we would work together as a team to help develop these young people lives. Of course, this consisted of me working beyond my normal work hours just to be able to reach that student who felt they were completely a “nobody”, for it was more important to meet the student need rather than my own personal need of just wanting to go home. The act of being able to speak one encouraging word to the student was more important to me.

As a professional with a diverse career, I am highly motivated and empathetic to the needs of all children. I am currently a Special Education teacher, and I know that all students can learn. I personally want your child to be a successful lifetime learner. I am patient, considerate, and compassionate. My goal is to ensure your child's learning within a nuturing environment. To become a lifetime learner, it is a process that is best acquired through discovery. I believe that for mastery of an objective, learning has to be personal experience and provoke the curiousity of students. All students can learn, but it has to be personalized. I will continue to find creative approaches to find the best method of making learning a success. As a lifetime learner, I am highly diverse in the areas of teaching, and counseling. I have earned a bachelor degree in Child and Family Studies, which

I graduated from the College of Charleston with a degree in Sociology. Almost immediately I went to work in the behavioral health field. While there, I found an ability to connect with, and build a rapport with the residents at the facility. After a year, I took a position as a Clinical Counselor at the Medical University of South Carolina, working with emotionally disabled adolescents and putting together "groups" or behavioral classes in the hospital. I have taken and passed PRAXIS examinations in the field of Special Education, and am now a highly qualified Special Education teacher. I have taught Special Education in three Counties, and absolutely love teaching. My teaching methods are rather basic. I respect the student, and I encourage the student. I have found that reward goes much farther than ridicule or punishment when motivating a student to believe in themselves, and thus exc

I use very much praise with students. Materials I use are varied. Books are often used. I ask students what they want to do. As a part of after school lessons I check on what students absolutely should do to meet requirements. Contact is made with other people to inform them of progress if needed. I have been teaching many years. I had a desire to teach many ages. As a teacher I desired to teach many subjects. Also I have done after school tutoring for several years. Computers are interesting to me. What I like best is the many things that can be done in after school lessons. I enjoy working on projects with students. Books are always useful. Reading constantly is important. Math consists of both knowing facts and doing math. My name is Mary Ann. Education has been interesting.

Currently I teach first grade in Lexington School District One. I work everyday to help struggling readers and challenge others. I have been “formally” teaching for one year. Before I began teaching in Lexington, I attended the University of South Carolina for a BA in Psychology and MAT in Early Childhood Education. During this time I completed many observations and practicums. Many of these projects involved me working one on one with children to assist and help them learn a new skill. During college and high school I work with the after school program at the YMCA assisting students with their homework, planning activities, etc. I also worked at many local daycares as a caregiver. I am actively involved with many professional organizations and have attended conferences across the state. I like to think of myself as a life-long learner!

I am an extremely patient educator. I have worked with a wide range of students from students with academic and behavioral disabilities to highly gifted and talented students, all with varying needs and learning preferences. I constantly assess my students to determine their understanding of a given topic. If something does not appear to work, I can quickly and adeptly adjust my teaching style to better fit my students’ needs. I can be very creative when it comes to instruction. I believe in instilling a love of learning in my students, so I always strive to make learning fun. I strive to facilitate a deep understanding of concepts rather than rote memorization of facts. As a Summa Cum Laude graduate of Towson University with a degree in elementary and special education, I have always pushed myself to achieve excellence.
