I recently graduated from the University of Georgia with a Bachelor's degree in Statistics and a Certificate in Computing which is one step down from a minor. The statistics degree program had a heavy emphasis in mathematics, so a lot of my course work contained math classes. I have always been in advanced math classes and have been tutoring friends, family, and colleagues since High School. I will be starting at the University of Kentucky in August 2012, preparing for a Masters in Statistics, and available for tutoring the end of August/early September 2012.

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.

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 system. I have found this method to be very effective. The other method is patience. Students who strugge with their academic learning usually are having other areas of difficulty which may be social learning. Having clinical training allows me to make a more accurate assessment. 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 par

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 wanted to find a way to help students in these areas. During sophomore year, I was approached by high school administration to tutor students, on a one-on-one basis after school, on math subjects. It was an amazing opportunity because only four students out of the entire student body were picked for this highly-selective position. I enjoyed it so much that I continued doing so until I graduated from the high school 3 years later. 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 understand

As a graduate from Troy university I am now look to pursue my dream of becoming a middle school math teacher. Now that I have a B.S in mathematics I know that I have capabilities to effectively teach math. While working with the upward bound program I help tutor students in math as well teach math class. Also with my minor being in psychology I have learned to asses behaviors and how to shape learning patterns. It has been my passion to teach middle school age every since i was a middle school student myself. I believe a I have an ability to make math simple and take some of the fear away from student who think math may be to hard. As a teacher my teaching style would consist of reciprocal peer tutoring where students are able to help one another while working together to solve problems. As the instructor I would give the initial instruction and perform a few examples then I will al

As an college graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree in Mathematics with Computer Science emphasis, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition, I have learned extensive teaching skills due to tutoring peers, working close with the Dean of Computer Science and Mathematics, along with many various areas of study. During the last six years I have tutored students in all areas of mathematics, English and sciences. I enjoy teaching and working with all children. Being a mentor in college at Alice Coachman Elementary, I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, easy going, considerate and have a strong will to teach others. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in

I love children of all ages, including Middle School and Highschool. I do not alweats go by the book. I do what I feel is best for that particular child's learning style. I teach outside the box and encourage learning rather than straight memorization. I help children love learning. I taught in public school and private. While doing so and during summers, I tutored on my own. I got married in 1986, had three children and stayed out of the classroom for a while. I homeschooled my own children and began an ACCREDITED highschool for home schoolers. I taught and tutored all subjects. I have also worked with several learning disabled children. I can teach/tutor pretty much any subject ages K-college. I have also worked in the Writing Lab at Clayton State College. I feeel very qualified for this job.

I have always had a passion for students, Math and teaching. I have been tutoring since I was in high school. My tutoring skills range from elementary to college. During my student teaching experience, I had the opportunity to work on a team with special education students. I had a chance to use my creativity in creating lessons that would reach each student. I believe the best approach to teaching a student is first learning what kind of learner they are. This discovery guides the type of instruction I use. I also always build on a student's prior knowledge, which enhances retainment. I am very patient and believe in positive reinforcements. My ultimate goal is to make my students successful. I want to teach my students how to fish, not just give them the fish.

I enjoy tutoring. I obtain gratification through helping students to grasp concepts that seem vague or out of reach. I always keep a professional relationship with people. I like to make people feel welcome to ask questions. It is important to respond to students in a manner that encourages them to ask questions. I also ask questions to obtain feedback on how to approach problems, build problem solving skills, and resolve issues that limit their understanding of subject matter. My ultimate goal is to build a students character so that s/he will have the confidence to strive in reaching for higher education. While I was in high school, I tutored all subjects in math except Calculus. In college, I tutored students in Calculus, general engineering courses, and I was an assigned mentor to three students. I have earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering and a minor in Materials Science Engin

I enjoy teaching children of all ages. Learning can be fun as long as you can relate it to something that the child is interested in. Gaining the knowledge that is taught in middle school and high school only helps the child to further education. I believe learning should be fun and enjoyable. I am very patient and take pride in producing positive results. I obtained my Associates of Science Degree in Biology at Macon State College completing courses in Anatomy and Physiology, Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Calculus. I then completed my Bachelors of Science Degree in Biology at Valdosta State University. At Valdosta State University, I completed courses such Microbiology, Molecular Genetics of DNA, Animal Physiology, Protein Biochemistry, and Statistics. With these courses came laboratory experience which has allowed me to strengthen my skills in writing laboratory reports. I

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 everyday situations. I will also provide an interactive and engaging teaching style because I believe that if the student can explain the problem to me in their own words I can tell if they are understanding the material and not just learning to replicate a solution. 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 recently completed a Youth Staff contract aboard Royal Caribbean. Along with entertainment, we promoted learning and creativity, offering educational activities through science experiments, and expression through art projects, theme nights, and parades. I've taught English classes for kids/teens in Brazil, and led equestrian programs in Greece for troubled and disabled local children. Prior to leaving the US, I filled my passion tutoring “at risk” children after school in Buffalo, and working to develop language skills through cultural activities for families in Boston. I have a special talent for literature, writing, and art, but also love math and science. 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
