I have helped many of my friends and other students become better writers throughout and beyond my college career. I have seen all of these students gain good grades for their work, and they also became better writers through the process. Writing papers is one of the few things I found easy in college. I enjoyed writing and the process so much that I majored in the subject. I have written way too many ten- twenty page papers in my life, struggled to see the project come to a close, and rejoice in happiness after the grade was posted/ returned. Writing papers and teaching others how to do so is my passion. It takes time and a lot of effort, but the end result is worth the hard work. I have been writing and helping others become better writers for the past five years. I plan to continue to teach for many many more. I have a calm teaching style and approach. My goal is to help clear confus

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 english. I

I enjoy teaching students at all ability levels. I have the expertise to challenge and assist the most advanced learners, and the skills and teaching strategies to lead struggling students to high levels of success. While all aspects of English came easily to me as a student, I have had other courses that challenged me, so I understand the frustration of encountering difficult material and assignments. I bring this understanding - and a kind and patient personality - to each tutoring opportunity. I have had many years experience teaching students at the middle and secondary levels. I have an exceptional knowledge of all areas of English - American and British literature, composition, and grammar - demonstrated in part by my perfect scores on the teaching professional test, the Praxis. Additionally, I have had five years experience teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) at all levels

I am a senior in the Education program at Appalachian State University. As an Elementary Education major, I have worked closely with children from many age levels. I have participated in an after-school tutor/mentor program at Appalachian State in 2008. In 2009, I completed two internships while in the Education Program. One working with 2nd grade students and the other with 5th grade students. I have also taken many courses to understand context and teaching strategies in all subject areas. I believe that children must be engaged in the subject matter before successful learning takes place. Finding fun, interesting, and personal ways for the child to connect to the topic will truly allow them a chance to learn and retain information. I love finding different ways for individual learners to understand what they are being taught.

For more than ten years, I have been teaching different styles and varieties of English Composition and Grammar as well as High School Spanish. Whether it’s a facet of elementary Creative Writing or developing a thesis for a high school term paper or designing newspaper advertisements, my students are exposed to each concept and taught their basic structure and technique. As a home school instructor and youth pastor, I am quite adept with varying ages and learning levels. My assorted employment as an assistant editor and administrative assistant has also proven to be quite beneficial regarding the necessary skills for tutoring, such as organizational aptitude, editing, and proofreading. I am a firm believer in teaching a student using hands-on experience. Each child has been given the intellect and imagination to successfully compose and write his or her thoughts into an established pie

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 skills. I

I really enjoy being around kids and helping them learn new things. When you teach a kid something and they finally get it, the sight of their face lighting up is priceless. I believe that one should teach using a variety of methods because all kids do not learn the same way and each individual method shows something new each time. I believe that all kids can learn so much if they work as hard as they can and put forth maximum effort. I think it is very easy to learn/teach using as many hands on examples as possible. I graduated from Liberty University in May 2009 with a BS in Accounting. I am currently and have been a substitute teacher in Bedford County for the 2009-2010 school year.

Though I am a student of Biotechnology, helping others in the field of mathematics has been of interest in that its a common “language” worldwide. Prior to completing my General Arts degree, I had aided two individuals in math, an adult and a high school student in college algebra; and recently aided a coworker this past year in the same subject. In addition, I had later acquired 70+ credit hours towards an Electrical Engineering Degree, which further honed my math skills into the range of college level calculus, trigonometry, differentials, and basic statistics. Furthermore, I have experience in working with the public for 10+ years in customer support/service environments. All who wish to learn have but to ask for help. I believe anyone can learn anything they want and that no one deserves to be told otherwise. In tutoring math, the individual needs to have their homework present

I was an Elementary Education major for a year and a half of the time that I spent in college and even though I changed my major to Journalism and Mass Communications, I have found myself coming back to where I started. I enjoy knowing that if given this opportunity that I can reach out to so many children by helping them succeed in the classroom.I have recently started tutoring a co-workers son and I really like the growth that I see in his school work and the progress that I have been able to him make. Working with him has let me realize even more that this is something that I’m very passionate about. I enjoy knowing that I can have such a great influence in a child’s future. Being able to work with children and help them achieve that A in that classroom that they may have never thought they could get, can be the difference between a child going to college or not. I know that all child
