An Exceptional Teacher for Exceptional Students!

My teaching style is one of engaging, fun style. I believe that students should love to learn. Students should be allowed to academically express themselves to the teacher. This helps to facilitate learning. Appropriate questioning of the topic gets all students involved in the curriculum. I always help the students to relate to the topic by using prior knowledge. Differentiated instruction is given to all students in a caring, private method.
I am a former Special Education teacher from Bibb County. I taught in a interrelated classroom in both the elementary school level, and the middle school level. I taught reading, math, science, and social studies. I was a cooperative teacher, in which I worked with the general education teacher to assist her in helping our students with special needs. In the interrelated classroom, I worked with students who were not able to be mainst ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a United States Air Force veteran and I was responsible for training new airmen on the proper operation and maintenance of survey equipment. I assisted many of my co-workers with math modelling and geometry while they were pursuing their civil engineering degrees. I have 2 Bachelor degrees, BS in Civil Engineering from Georgia Tech (GPA 3.29) and BS in Science from Georgia College and State University(GPA 3.72). I am very passionate about math and I believe that if you excel at math you will excel in all areas of study since math teaches the student to read and comprehend as well as apply problem solving skills.
I love teaching and I like to teach using examples. I like to present the material in a variety of ways with the knowledge that some students are visual learners and some benefit more from verbal examples. I would provide everyday examples and relate the problems to ev ... read more

I love working with children of all ages, and like combining education with fun. I am a thoughtful, creative, and patient teacher, and like to encourage children to approach problems and questions in their own way, frequently with examples and projects that will better illustrate a subject area. I feel I have many unique skills and attributes to offer your program. Raised in a multi-cultural environment, I am bilingual in Italian, fluent in Spanish, and proficient in French and Portuguese. I have traveled to more than 35 countries, frequently alone, and love sharing the interesting tales and adventures that I've had around the world, and let them influence my interactions with others.

My teaching style is hands-on. I believe that while students gain knowledge through auditory and visual methods of learning, it is vital that they are given practical tasks that put their skills to use. I love seeing kids make mistakes with their work with the realization that they can overcome them through hard work and persistence. I am enthusiastic about education and how it creates endless opportunities for people seeking to make a positive impact on the world through their respective future careers.
I was in the Teacher Apprenticeship program from 2003-2004 at my high school, where I taught and tutored two classes of 8th grade students for my mentor teacher. In college, I proofread many papers for friends and did extensive legal research and writing, which continuously improved my writing ability. I vastly enjoy writing papers and performing research for academic purposes, esp ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Mercer University, I have had the opportunity to work with students in many different grades while completing my many student teaching experiences. After graduating, I began working on my Master's Degree in Elementary Reading and Mathematics with Walden University. I am only two classes short of completing my degree and will have it finished up in a little over four months. I recently began tutoring students from grades 3 through 11 using the Wilson Reading System. I definitely enjoy teaching and tutoring and look forward to any further assistance I may be able to provide.
I have recently come to realize that I really enjoy working with students of all ages. However, my passion is still definitely for the elementary age students. While studying at Mercer, I had a professor tell me that she truly believed every child could be reached. I have now taken this to ... read more

I love working with people and helping them. I believe in constructive discussion, using aids of whatever sort to help make points, and to pick up on a person's true learning style. Some learn from reading, some from doing, some from trial and error. Once you pick up on that you can move forward much more efficiently in terms of helping someone grasp the subject matter in question.

A Little Bit About Me...

Students have a gift for learning, but difficulty in applications. I have a very special way of working with children to understand underlying problems with their personal difficulties in learning, strategically show students new applications and memory skills to use to increase comprehension, thus the student understands and is motivated to learn. I make learning fun, hands-on, and a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Students see progress and are intensely energetic to learn more.

I love children and am very patient and encouraging. I always look to find their strengths and help each child to recognize his/her own individual gifts and talents. I bring lots of energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to my instruction. Teaching has never been a "job" to me...it is a passion and a huge part of my life. It has been such a blessing to bring the joy of music to the lives of so many children throughout the years.

I believe that learning should be fun. As a teacher, I work to create fun and interesting learning experiences that span a variety of learning styles. Such activities facilitate the maximum amount of learning for all students. Then we work together to practice the newly acquired skills to enable transfer and application.
I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology at Colgate University. Later, I attended Penn State University where I studied elementary education and earned my teacher’s certification after taking classes, interning, and student teaching. I taught for six years: four years in first grade and two years in third grade. While teaching full-time, I also tutored for the school system after-school, on Saturdays, and during the summer. Those tutoring experiences involved students from grades 1, 3, 4, and 5. I also have done private tutoring for high schools stu ... read more

I enjoy working with all types of children; my goal is to help the child and the parent to understand and get the best education that he/she could possilby get. I believe in the no child left behind program. I like to answer a question with a question and get the student to think and answer the question on their own with some supervision.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style reflects the environment of a college classroom. Lessons are centered around unrestricted discussion of topic and formal lecturing. The most central part of my style , however, is guiding the student to realize the answer for themselves. Not only is this method more conducive to learning, it is an indispensable tool for boosting confidence.
Over the past three years, I have had the wonderful opportunity to tutor a wide variety of students on a part-time basis. I enjoy the challenge of transmitting information in a way that is both accessible and edifying. This experience, combined with a world-class education from Mercer University, enables me to engage students on a level not typically found with other tutors.
