Political Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Dogue, VA

As far as I can remember I have always appreciated quality education. As a small boy I remember going to the small local library in Portsmouth, Virginia where the Librarian once said that she knew that if she would only have one patron for the day that it would be me. I have worked in three libraries during my career. During college I was selected as a Librarian Assitant based on my interest, academic achievement and overall poitive conduct at the university. After college later on in my carer after college I worked at both the Main Branch and one of the other locations in the City of Richmond, Virginia. I believe that education is key to success early in life and that a good education make a sound foundation for later success in life. This is one of the driving forces that causes me to have an interest in tutoring to assist students in becoming strong in areas of weakness. Further

I recieved a BA degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I majored in Classical Civilization (with a Latin Concentration) and History. I have 12 years of experience teaching Latin. The courses I have taught include introductory courses, Latin I, Latin II, and Latin III. 3 years of Life Science teaching experience. 4 years of History teaching experience (as a tour guide and history interpreter) 12 years of experience teaching writing as well. I like to boil things down to the basics. With Latin and Science that means learning as much as one can about the basic elements and then building one step at a time on those basics. In history, it means learning the story, and telling the story.

My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients.

My education in international relations and international public affairs has allowed me to gain knowledge in the social sciences and foreign languages. As an undergraduate student, I studied and worked in Spain, which has given me the opportunity to hone my Spanish skills. In graduate school, I participated in a number of Mandarin Chinese intensive language programs, both in the United States and mainland China. I have tutored students in high school and college and have also served as a mentor to undergraduate and graduate students. As a future university professor, students’ success and understanding of the subject at hand is of the utmost importance to me. My greatest strength as a tutor is that I know what it is like to have no knowledge of a foreign language. Thus, I am able to diagnose the particular difficulties a student is having and provide appropriate guidance in resolvin
