DEPENDABLE AND PATIENT TUTOR IN GREENSBORO AREA

My tutoring strategies: -throughout my experiences, I realized that each person is different and require different teaching methods depending on the individual's preference -I prefer to use study skills that will benefit the individual; I have a variety of strategies depending on the subject as well. some individuals learn well using flashcards, while others prefer repetitive writing for memorization - I have had a couple of ADHD clients that prefer learning games and activities because it helps them stay active, but focused at the same time

Political Science is one of my top subjects! See government. I have read extensively in political theory/philosophy, and am familiar with most statistical methods used in the discipline.

I finished as an undergraduate with a major in economics, and minors in history, philosophy and religion. Next I worked for a year as a political risk analyst for a large multinational company helping them evaluate risks inherent to investing in unfamiliar environments. I found I enjoyed the work, but wanted to get more economics training with the hope of teaching economics. I moved from the for-profit company to their non-profit foundation that sponsored economic research, and spent the next 4 years evaluating grants in the area of economics, public policy, law and political science. I always found that one of my favorite parts of my job was teaching those I supervised about economics and government. Accordingly, during that time, I began a doctoral program in economics on a fellowship. After spending a year in the program, I determined I was not as fond of academia as I initially belie ... read more

My comments on tutoring Political Science : I have a degree in International Relations and have studied international political science extensively.

While in university I studied art history, studio art, and international relations. I was a teaching assistant for many art history classes, including renaissance, modern, and post modern art. I also was a teaching assistant for several studio art classes including drawing, photography, and silk screen. I also sturdied international relations in university, with an emphasis on the Middle East and Europe, particularly Cold War and terrorism. I have almost 11 years of experience with children and adolescents who have disabilities, including autism, down syndrome, aspergers, and behavioral challenges. I ran a summer camp for teenagers with autism and currently work in a school with children who have behavioral disabilities.
I like a very engaging style of teaching, using visuals or work sheets, charts, or picture to have hands on to help the participant learn. I am incredibly energeti ... read more

I love tutoring students because through my experience I have learned that one on one time can be really beneficial to all students. During this time I am able to really talk with students to figure out what their specific needs are. I can also help students learn specific study and reading skills. Through my experience, I have seen the most improvement with students when they have one on one time with their tutor or teacher.
I graduated from Mount Union College in May 2006 with a BA in History and a double minor in Adoloescent to Young Adult Education and American Studies. Throughout high school I was a teacher's assistant helping with students in class during my study halls as well as working one on one with students for extra study skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a senior in the Education program at Appalachian State University. As an Elementary Education major, I have worked closely with children from many age levels. I have participated in an after-school tutor/mentor program at Appalachian State in 2008. In 2009, I completed two internships while in the Education Program. One working with 2nd grade students and the other with 5th grade students. I have also taken many courses to understand context and teaching strategies in all subject areas.
I believe that children must be engaged in the subject matter before successful learning takes place. Finding fun, interesting, and personal ways for the child to connect to the topic will truly allow them a chance to learn and retain information. I love finding different ways for individual learners to understand what they are being taught.

I was an Elementary Education major for a year and a half of the time that I spent in college and even though I changed my major to Journalism and Mass Communications, I have found myself coming back to where I started. I enjoy knowing that if given this opportunity that I can reach out to so many children by helping them succeed in the classroom.I have recently started tutoring a co-workers son and I really like the growth that I see in his school work and the progress that I have been able to him make. Working with him has let me realize even more that this is something that I’m very passionate about.
I enjoy knowing that I can have such a great influence in a child’s future. Being able to work with children and help them achieve that A in that classroom that they may have never thought they could get, can be the difference between a child going to college or not. I know that all ... read more

I like to take some time to find out how each student learns. I like to connect the subject matter to real world examples or how they can use it the next day. I like to explain the subject matter in several different ways so it is easier to understand. I don't think my job is done unless the student walks away with the knowledge and how to use it.

I personally believe that in order to unlock the learning potential in a child that you must first get to know the child and his/her abilities.Establishing a positive and trusting relationship can make all the differnce in the world to a child. Every child is different. You must make the material that they are learning relevant to their everyday lives. I believe in creating an enviroment so that learning is exciting not intimidating. That way they can take what they learn, apply it, and make better, more positive choices in their everyday lives and become productive people insted of menaces to society.

Factors such as motivation, encouraging discussion, critical thinking, challenging perception, and providing time to process the problem and initialize forming a conclusion on their own is imperative!

My teaching style varies depending on the level of the student and also the students approach to learning. I mostly believe in an interactive way of teaching. I like this style because it engages the student and keeps them interested in what you are trying to teach them
