More About This Tutor...

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 dyslexic youths at the Dyslexia Clinic in Oxford, AL. I have experience tutoring biology, english, french, physcohology, and a variety of art and history classes.
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 s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 teachers license from the state of Alabama. My strongest subjects are history, grammar, reading, literature, drama, and social studies.
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 tea ... read more

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 covered with my teaching style, which includes: reading, writing, grammar, conversation, dictation and everyday life skills. My goal for every student is to help them shine and reach their full potential in a fun and relaxed setting.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While growing up the motto “if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right” was instilled in me. This has proven to be a motivating factor that has pushed me to excel in school and life. I realize that each individual has their own learning style, and I am flexible in motivating my students to help them excel in their own way. I feel that every student can become more familiar with the material being taught with one-on-one sessions helping to make a more clear understanding of the subject matter.
As an engineering graduate, I know that hard work, dedication, and diligent study habits are often required to succeed in school. These qualities are some that if carried on throughout life will help to always achieve excellence. I graduated from Mississippi State University with a bachelor degree in biomedical engineering. I graduated with a 3.6 GPA, which allowed me to walk with honors. Thr ... read more

I love teaching and working with all children. I am available to help your child find academic success. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences.
I have taught for three years at a private school and then was laid off due to decreased enrollment. I have taught different grade levels in history. I have also learned extensive skills in dealing with other adults either as co-workers or parents.

I have a natural ability to lead/teach and the experience as a foundation. I hold numerous certifications with various organizations which is difficult to represent on a resume.
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 have supplies and material that help children to have fun while learning English. Most of my children hate to see me leave when tutoring assignments have ended. I care about my students and will go to all lengths to help them to progress. I have worked with learning disabled children.
I use age appropriate workbooks to help children to practice English. I read enjoyable books to children and have them read back to me while questioning them on the logic and content of the books. I have computer software learning equipment, learning games, learning blocks, flash cards, etc. that helps children to develop a love for reading/English. I am good at evaluating a child and determinin ... read more

Throughout my years of employment, I have had significant experience in the areas of science and medicine. Currently, I am an Anatomy and Physiology instructor at a community college. My laboratory experience includes being a laboratory technician for BioLife Plasma Services and research technician for University of Alabama at Birmingham. I graduated with honors, cum laude, with a B.S. degree in Biology. Furthermore, I finished medical school with honors and during my matriculation completed two years of clinical experience in the clinic and hospital setting.
Effective teaching involves making sure that the student stays engaged in the learning process. Incorporating different teaching tools such as videos, figures, and real life examples not only enhances the likelihood of the student “getting” the material but also increases their probability of actually retaining it.
