I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.

I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style varies with the learning style of the student I am working with at any given time. I believe in positive reinforcement with facilitative rather than demeaning corrections. My basic philosophy for all students is to meet their wagon where it is at, hitch my horse to it and carry the students as far as they can go with their abilities and aptitudes. I believe strongly that every student can succeed and that strong reading, writing and mathematics skills are a key to that success. I know I make a difference to my students because they and their parents tell me so. My most gratifying moments come when parents tells me, "I want you to teach my child just like you taught me!"
I decided to become a teacher in 7th grade when two teachers in a time of family crisis turned my life around and turned me on to learning. I majored in elementary education, earned a dual master's ... read more

It is my belief that everyone is able to learn, and what produces that ability is having support. So many instructors give up on those not favored as "prized" students, and in turn, these students just slide through. I know it takes time and effort to get some students enthused about education, and I make it my goal to help them with this.
I have been working as a private tutor from my home or student's home for 3 years. I have tutored elementary through college level students. I am able to teach a variety of subjects, however my forte is English and Composition. I have the honor of being a published author. I am an expert in MLA or APA style writing. I have also tutored in College Algebra, elementary math, Biology, and Reading. I speak conversational French, and am able to teach up to the secondary level.

A Little Bit About Me...

I want to first stress that I am only an assistant on their learning journey, not the protagonist. I will not do your child's work for them, but I will make sure that they complete their assignment, and we, as a team, complete it to the best extent possible. I know that a lot of children and adults fail as students because teachers often choose their prized pupils and disregard the rest. I think this is grossly unjust, and believe everyone has the potential for greatness.
I am a graduate of North Georgia with a passion for language and literature. I have worked on projects that have been, or will soon be, published. I am a talented writer, and love helping others with their writing endeavors. I am able to read, understand, and transcribe French, however, I am not a very good "speaker". I have worked with different educational levels, from elementary to college, in assistance of w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate from the University of Florida's Proteach program, I've been given the opportunity to be a part of many different learning and instructional environments. I have worked with some of the lowest achieving students as well as some high achieving students. I have worked with students of all grade levels from Kindergarten to middle school. I value the time and learning experience of each student as well as their parent.
I love working and teaching with so many different students. All children have the opportunity to learn and sometimes it takes that extra effort put forth not only by the student but also a willing individual to help them. I believe that by giving students that extra learning opportunities, they are able to grasp the information or skills in another environment rather then the classroom.

Teachers are responsible for nourishing the seeds of our future. We offer these seeds, the light of knowledge, the moisture of critical thinking, and a rich soil which the roots of firm values are formed. I believe there are no bad seeds. Each can grow with positive guidance and positive learning experiences. Children are unique and learn in various ways. Teachers must use a variety of strategies in order to maximize learning.

It seems I have always been involved in education, whether through planning/implementing lesson plans, creating assessments or one-on-one work with a student. I have experience in all areas of education with all ranges of students and have learned from each one of them. All lesson plans and standards are adaptable no matter the need. I have created unique units (such as "Language of the Week") and worked with birth through age 22.

I believe that the best way to teach is by learning alongside the student. Through my previous tutoring experience, I have found that the most successful sessions are a result of first understanding the student's learning style. Once an understanding of the learning style is established, the tutoring sessions are catered to fit each student's personal needs and learning goals. In doing this, I am constantly learning new ways to tutor while at the same time teaching the student in a way that will provide them with the greatest benefits.
As an aspiring writer, I hold a strong love for words in all forms. I enjoy writing them, reading them, speaking them, and sharing my love for them with others. My love for words helped me to earn a BA in Communication Studies while minoring in Journalism. In addition to utilizing these skills through extra-cirricular coursework and freelance writing ... read more
