A teacher must care about people. It is not enough to have the knowledge of the material. You must be very aware of body language and read the group to determine if you need to restate the concept. A good teacher will ask a question and will not answer until a group discussion occurs. A good teacher ensures the group feels comfortable to think outside the box withou fear of embarrassment. Use of several medias in addition to course material is key to keep the attention of the group. However, again, none of this is effective if you ... read more

I love helping people to see the other side of things, and understand how simple complex systems can be. Mainly, I like to inspire thought, and provoke an individual learning style in all those I mentor. In language and English, I believe reading diversity are key, in math I instill a grasp for formulas so that the child merely hast to insert numbers and follow routine, In history it's important to relate to today's issues and follow up boring facts with interesting relational occurrences. Overall, I seek to instill a joy with learning, and I pressure those I teach to not only understand, but creatively foster their own perspectives and takes on the matters at hand.
As a person I have always held my work ethic to remarkable standards. I've finished an Associate's Degree in two years flat, and am well on my way to having completed a bachelor's in only three and a half years time. Al ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn.
With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a passion to teach. I have been lucky enough to teach both children and adults. Before moving from Delaware to Atlanta, GA I taught kindergarten. It was rewarding and very fulfilling. When I lived in Atlanta I was fortunate to find an ESL position teaching children and adults. I was hooked! I've been able to utilize all my skills that I have learned from the University of Delaware, past job experiences and new job experiences.. A move to Alabama three years ago didn't change the fact that ESL is what I loved teaching. Presently, I'm teaching part-time at Gadsden State Community College College.
Learning is an awesome tool when you have the ability to understand and use it in your surroundings. This is my goal for every student. I've taught in many different ways: classroom, small groups, one-on-one, multi-level and specific levels in ESL. All areas are co ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I try to put myself in the student's shoes and find which method of teaching can reach the student best. I try to identify the student's strengths and weaknesses and work out a program to help him or her achieve his or her goals. I also like to involve the parents or guardians as much as possible to keep them updated on the student's progress and how they can contribute to the learning process. From what I have observed as a substitute teacher at different schools, some teachers have a lot of subject knowledge but lack the teaching skills to get the most out of the students.
I have a BS in business administration with a major in marketing and minor in English. I have been substitute teaching at various times in public schools since 1995. I have taught beginning computer classes to adults and have taught third through fifth grade boys at church. I hold a current substitute ... read more

Many children struggle with classroom learning because they require a different learning method than the one being offered or more direct attention than a teacher of 20+ students can offer. As a dyslexia therapist I was instructed in a number of different approaches to teaching and how to match each one to an individual student's needs. As a tutor I make it my priority to learn not only which subjects a student needs help with but also why they are struggling at all which allows me to adapt the lesson plan in a way that is easy for them to understand and retain.
Even before attaining my degree in English from Jacksonville State University I was passionate about all forms of teaching. I have over a year of experience tutoring college students at Jacksonville State University's Academic Center for Excellence and immediately following that nearly another year of experience tutoring dy ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching literature and the elements of grammar and writing to any student that is willing to learn. I trust that each student will come prepared and willing to work. I often go beyond what is expected of me so students get my best effort when either teaching or tutoring them. When teacher and student, alongside caring parents, work as a team, that student is destined to reach his or her full potential. I demand hard work and perseverance from my students. I stress the importance of learning and critical thinking. I hope to always make a difference in a student's life.
As a graduate of the University of Alabama, I value my education and my ability to teach others. I have earned two degrees, BA in English and MA in English, which has enabled me to teach and tutor students and adults in the areas of reading, comprehensions, and writing. In addition, I have taught coll ... read more

More About This Tutor...

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents.
For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I ... read more
