Grandmother with Open Heart & Open Mind

On the professional end, I was an accountant (CFO type) for a very long time. My most recent "job," though, was publishing a natural health magazine (4 years). I walked away from it all late summer 2011 to work my spiritual path and providing patient and heart-centered tutoring to elementary children works well with this path. Children can feel that I enjoy them so they like me. I am a grandmother of two (2 and 6). I live in Black Mountain area. Contact me at CarolinaLightWave@gmail.com to set up a meeting. With gratitude, Barbara.

Carpe Dieum...Sieze the day!

Motivation is the key to everything we do in life. I use this to drive my students to excel beyond what they think they are capable of accomplishing. I utilized experiential theory and real-world experiences to drive my education to make lessons relevant, fun and interesting. I utilize the constructionist learning theory where I establish where my students are with the given subject and attach new knowledge structures to support continue growth where they build their overall schema and level of understanding on a given topic. I utilize positive reinforcement and humor to keep them excited about the task at hand.
I have my Pre-K through 8th grade elementary education credential from West Virginia, California and North Carolina. I have also taught High School classes and worked as a guest lecturer for college level courses. I have 10 years of experience as a teacher and I have my adm ... read more

Poor college kid trying to make a living

Friendly understanding and patient. You gotta relate the kid and make them want to learn if they are actually gonna listen and absorb the information.
I’m good with kids, high school and below I can break it down easily, I have good study habits, and I like to encourage people to better themselves educationally. My best subjects are in high school is math and chemistry. And I could teach anything middle school and below. I am a digital media student so I am also good with computers.

Friendly and engaging. Focus is on comprehension of the material rather than just completing the homework.
While I was in high school, I took honors courses and graduated with a 4.0 GPA. I tutored an 8th grade-9th grade boy in TCAPS preparation and helped him complete homework in Math (pre-algebra, algebra, and pre-geometry), Science (biology), and English. I tutored him for two years. After I graduated high school I was accepted to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where I am currently in the spring semester of my sophomore year. I will be returning to Johnson City this summer and am available to tutor. I babysit two young boys currently, one of whom is 5 and I help him with kindergarten homework,such as learning words and reading. I am capable of helping with all ages. I can tutor most any subject through high school with the exception of advanced chemistry and calculus, an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently in school to become a middle school language arts/social studies teacher. I am about to enter my junior year of college. I have volunteered in middle school classrooms. I have been doing one-on-one care with individuals with mental/physical disabilities for the past year and a half working for the Arc of NC. I have volunteered as a tutor at the Pullen Hope Center in Raleigh, tutoring adults trying to get their GED's.
I am all about positive feedback. I think it is extremely important to point out when people do things right, and not just when they do things wrong.

My comments on tutoring Elementary Study Skills : Please read first comment.

I teach with lots of love, high expectations, and humor!
I've been an elementary school teacher for 10 years. I have a master's degree in education and am certified in the state of NC for K-6 education. I have taught and tutored kindergarten-5th grade. I am also Orton Gillingham certified. I am very hands-on - I use games just as much as traditional teaching methods.
