My philosophy of discipline is simple: observe, take data and find the function of the behavior. When a student misbehaves in class there is an underlying reason. Every behavior has a function. The function can be to gain access to an item or person, to avoid doing the work or aggressive behaviors if they do not understand the assignment completely, medicine or personal affects (hungry, sleepy or thirsty). I also believe in “brain breaks”. My students take a break every hour to get up, walk around, listen to music and get the wiggles out. By doing this one simple trick, they are able to concentrate better and have an opportunity to get the wiggles out. I also have “my time versus your time”. Meaning “my time” is a time for the students to learn or pay attention while I am teaching. “Your time is your play time. If my time gets taken away then your time is taken away.

I graduated high school in 2008. I then attended West Ga Tech., for over a year. I majored in technical communications and took numerous computer classes. I love computers and Math. Those are my two favorite subjects but I am pretty well rounded, there's not much I can't do. I'm very self motivated and enjoy helping people better themselves. I work full time right now as a staffing agent, helping people get jobs. I'm only 22 recently out of college so most of the school subjects are still fresh in my memory.

I have had a lot of experience in several Georgia school systems. I have taught, student taught, and substituted. I have done long term substituting a couple times. I have tutored several students. I studied education at Columbus State University. I have experience in elementary, middle, and high school. I have the most experience at the elementary and middle school levels though.
My teaching style depends on the students needs. I believe students learn in different ways. I try to make sure my teaching styles fit the students I am working with. I believe that all students can benifit from hands on learning. I enjoy teaching in a hands on manner.

Elementary Tutor

Will graduate from Columbus State University with a degree in Early Childhood Education in December 2012. I have experience tutoring students with a difficulty with reading and phonics. I also have experience teaching a variety of fun and educational lessons in elementary school classrooms. I enjoy teaching and believe that most students don't get enough individual attention in schools.
My teaching style will vary with the need of the student. I do try to make my teaching fun for the students so they know learning can be fun.

Reluctant & Struggling Readers can become Good Readers!

I worked for 12 years as a Special Education teacher in the public school system, teaching students with ADD, learning disabilities, autism, Aspergers, emotional and behavior disorders, and mild intellectual disabilities in a resource room and inclusion setting. I am able to quickly make significant connections with the students, building the good rapport that is essential to achieving a good working relationship. I especially enjoy working with reluctant and struggling readers, and nothing makes me happier than to see them overcome the obstacles that have kept them from success.

Retired Georgia Certified (No.149179) Teacher

I have 30 years of classroom teaching experience 10 of them in special needs instruction. I have experience in Pre Kindergarten through 10th-grade levels. I have worked in public and private schools. I did not have a preference for one or the other. Children are mostly uninformed and young people are beginning to experience life. Some need a little more help than others on the road to success.
My former students described me as laid back, determined and persistent.

I have a BS in Elementary Education from Clearwater Christian College.I have had opportunities to work with children of all ages and abilities while I was an assistant principal, curriculum coordinator, and instructor for 2nd-6th grades. During the past 14 years I have tailor individualized learning plan that pinpoints the exact skills and habits that children need to reach their reading goals.
I genuinely want children to learn, understand and develop critical thinking abilities, as well as master content or learn skills. I am easy going and patient. I believe students should be taught with manipulatives and hands on materials.

I enjoy the diversity and demographics of teaching all age groups. Typically I allow the student to influence the teaching style once a greater understanding of their learning strengths (audio/visual) is determined. Often a variety of methods are required and this is dependant of learning objectives. Above I want the student to benefit from the session/s so feedback is essential. I am a great learner and adaptor to the client's needs.
Since 1999 I have tutored in many formats and venues entailing; elementary students, college students and adult learners. From 1999 to 2001 taught sociology courses at Auburn University as Graduate Assistant, and from 2003-2005 K - 8 students reading comprehension and English Arts. Presently I hold an M.S. in General Psychology & B.A. on Liberal Arts (with a concentration in American and Western Civilization History courses).

My teaching style is based on my belief that my purpose is that the student learn the material. If that means backtracking and presenting the material in a different manner or using more examples then that is what I will do. Especially in math and accounting, the building blocks must be solid in order to advance so I do concentrate on each step being strong.
My parents were both educators and my daughter is a professor, so I can say in all honesty that education has been a most important aspect of my life. I have been very successful as a college instructor and a tax school teacher. I do not have any tutoring experience but with my love of education and my own work ethic I know I can be instrumental in a students academic success.
