I can make learning fun, No Doubt!

I am a junior at EKU working toward my Bachelor of Science. Education major with concentrations in Math and English. I have tutored my mom in basic college math as well as statistics, and her grades have definitely improved. I have learned to accommodate individual learning needs and I find the results very rewarding!
I have learned many teaching styles. Each student learns differently, so there is a technique to apply to very learning style to accommodate individual needs.

Elementary Reading is one of my top subjects! Teaching reading is another one of my favorites. It is critical that a child reads, and rereads. After getting a child through a page in a storybook, we go back and work on any words that I had identified as problematic for the child. I teach the child various decoding strategies, such as phonics, chunking, identifying smaller words, the silent E, etc. I then have the student reread that page. If there are still words that the student is having problems with, we work on them again, and then reread. With each rereading, I time the student and point out to him/her how much he or she has improved. Being able to clearly SEE progress makes such a difference in the child's overall attitude and motivation.

I am very active in the classroom and I believe in making learning fun and enjoyable. There are so many ways to help children learn, yet many of them are not used for one reason or another. If information must be memorized, I like to put it to song or a rap. Other methods of learning that are very useful are concept maps, discussions, and performing. Another very successful method that I've employed is having the student actually teach me rather than me teach the student. It is VERY effective.
I've got around 8 years of college and university work under my belt, and I am getting ready to finish a BA in Elementary Education from Western Governors University. I love teaching. I got the teaching bug while teaching English as a Foreign Language in China. I taught there for almost 9 years altogether, 1 year in Beijing, 7 years in Tianjin, and 1 year in Taiwan. I now work as a s ... read more

Affordable tutoring with an experienced college graduate.

I have worked at an academic library for the past 8 years. I scored a 29 on my reading ACT and have tutored elementary reading to children during four years of high school. I have also took numerous history classes at the college level and have worked with children from the ages of 4 years to 17 years of age.
I believe in guiding the student to the correct answer. It is important to me that the student be able to work the question or problem out so that they might do the same in a classroom setting.
