I am hands on. I personally learn best from things like powerpoints and handouts. This is also the way I tend to teach others.
I am a high school senior in the AP/Honors program at Warner Robins High School. I have two little sisters who I have tutored since they began school. On average, they have scored higher on tests when I have helped, particularly in the area of social studies. I have also helped multiple students at my school. The average that they score on a test is typically ten points higher than when they study by themselves and, in some cases, twenty points if the student does not study at all. The results are typically better in social studies, the subject which I am most proficient in, but all subjects tend to shoe significant improvement.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

All throughout my school years, I was a highly motivated student. I was in the accelerated programs from first grade to my senior year in high school. During high school I was not only in the accelerated english program, I also took many Advanced Placement classes and was on the accelerated math track. I was even able to finish my bachelor degree in International Affairs in three years. During my senior year in high school, I tutored my student in all of his subjects (math, social studies, science, and english). When in college, I led study groups in college and tutored a few of my fellow classmates, mainly in history and english.
I have always had an avid love of learning. I attempt to make my students love it too. I try to incorporate things the students like into the lessons (for example, I used football scoring to explain mathematic concepts to a 10 year old boy). I also am a f ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Georgia College and State University with a Bachelor of Music Education, with piano as my applied instrument. I have twenty-three years of experience teaching elementary music and seven years of teaching middle and high school music, chorus, and drama. I have also taught private piano lessons throughout these years. I have two years experience of teaching first and second grade classrooms. I was voted Teacher of the Year five different times throughout my career by my peers and administrators. I can tutor elementary age children in any subject and can teach piano and keyboard at any level.
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 i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During the last 10 years I have worked with all levels of students, preschool through college levels. These areas include reading, math, english, psychology, science and social studies. I am a self starter and have worked with parents when I owned/operated my private daycare. I have since then worked with children in low poverty communities in Atlanta Georgia, in order to provide an alternative method to learning to ensure that children receive the appropriate level of understanding of various subjects.
What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education ... read more

I've taught as an Adjust Professor for both Georgia College and State University and for Macon College.

I have earned a BA in Language Arts, but also hold a passion for math as well. I have excellent reading and writing skills, and am familiar with the Georgia CRCT testing. I have had experience teaching all subject areas to first grade students for four years, and have also taught prekindergarten for eight months.
I enjoy helping all children achieve their academic goals. I realize that all children learn differently and that in order to help them, you have to figure out which style works for them. I truly believe that hands on is the way to go if possible. I also believe that with the right tools, every child can reach their goal.

A Little Bit About Me...

It is much easier to learn, if you know the instructor is working with you and for you. I think if the person is in a relaxed atmosphere and they know they are moving forward toward their goal, they will feel the rewards of their efforts. It is easier to learn when the instructor and the child are working for the same goals.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Human Resource Management and a minor in Psychology. I have had several years of experience working with the public. I enjoy working with children and helping them to succeed. I have the patience to help them achieve their goals. I have worked with adults helping them achieve their GED and placing them into training programs.

A Little Bit About Me...

It is my belief that I do not truly master subjects until I can teach it to others. Thus, I view tutoring as an essential component of the learning process. With respect to my tenure as a tutor in the community of Tuskegee, Alabama and on-campus,this has certainly been the case. From helping to ease students of their confusion in the laboratory, to leading review sessions in front of spacious lecture halls, my experiences as a tutor have augmented my interpersonal as well as technical skills. The responsibilities inherent to tutoring have motivated me to enhance my knowledge, question my preconceptions, and strengthen my understanding of intergrated sciences and reading material.
Tutoring has taught me that perseverance and patience are the keys to tackling tough situations, and I try to pass that along to others. I am very versatile when it comes to teaching various age groups. I ... read more

Since my mother owned a day care center when I was a teenager and through my college years I have enjoyed tutoring students of all ages. I have understood students who struggle with different areas of study because I use to be that student when I was in elementary. From personal experience I have reap the benefits of having a tutor and learned several skills during that process. It is important to find solutions an order for the student to become self reliant and confident in their school work. I love seeing the progress from the beginning to the end in hopes of bring them to the next level of their future.

After tutoring students for a combined four years now, I have learned very quickly that each student is different. Some require more of a hands-on approach, while others work best independently. I prefer to get an understanding of what works best for the student first, and this allows me to tailor my teaching style accordingly. However, I am a thorough and deliberate tutor, and I have found this approach works best in conjunction with the student’s learning style to promote effective long-term mastering of tutored material. Tutoring students is something I have love and great devotion for, and my passion for helping students is unequalled.
In high school, I was the typical overachiever. I played varsity baseball, led many school organizations, and was at the top of my class. School, especially math subjects, came easy to me, but that is not the case with everyone. Therefore, I w ... read more

Teaching is my passion and I highly enjoying working and educating others. I believe that teaching should be implemented with enthusiasm, love, passion and innovation. A child should be given the best learning environment that will facilitate exploration, independence and growth. Thus the child will develop a natural desire and motivation to learn with and without the presence of a teacher. My teaching style is that of a facilitator and demonstrator.
With my collegiate experience, I have taught as a ESL assistant at school; helped special needs college students through reading and producing Books-on-Tape; and served as an ESL tutor for Inlingua. Indeed I have developed and perfected my communication and writing skills from writing research papers, laboratory reports, essays and public presentations of my work.

More About This Tutor...

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 be my belief and truly do believe that every single child can be reached and helped to find the area that they excel in. I am an extremely patient and friendly teacher who helps her students find and meet their full potential whenever possible.
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 ... read more
