EXPERT TUTOR-MultiSubject; Home/ONLINE; +WRITING instructor

I am a Cum Laude graduate with a B.A. from Belmont University, and I have been an educator for more than a decade since. My experience includes classroom teaching, small group instruction, and individualized tutoring (in person OR online via Zoom, email, FaceTime etc.) I specialize in English, Language Arts, writing composition, Latin, and other Humanities subjects. But I am also an effective & experienced instructor of Maths or Sciences. Outside of subject-specific tutoring, I offer assistance with academic advising, study skills, test prep, daily homework, and any written assignments.

At the age of 24 already possessing a bachelor's and master's degree illustrates my efficiency and determination. I have taught English as a second language at the high school level and politcal science at the university level. I am very personable and able to relate to various types and education levels of students. I have tutored in history, english, spanish, italian, social studies, civics, and the arts.
I enjoy enabling students to discover the abilities within themselves. I excel at being able to get students to find answers to their struggles by asking them the right questions, leading them in the right direction instead of doing the work for them. I have an uncanny ability to see the best in all students, patience, understanding, and flexibilty are virtues in tutoring. Each student is unique and needs an individual style of assistance.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent over 30 years in business and financial consulting. My lifelong passion has been for mathematics and education. I have reached a point in my career where I can focus on giving back of my talents to students through mathematics education. I have minimal formal teaching experience (student teaching and adult education at the college level). But my career has included extensive education and training of adults from diverse skill levels and cultural backgrounds. I am well versed in the real-life application of mathematics in business, finance, and insurance. My mathematics is current and applicable from middle school through most undergraduate college courses, especially statistics.
My teaching style varies with student learning styles. Although drill may be appropriate for some skills, my preference is project or problem based methods that draw on the learner's experience ... read more

1998 was the my first tutoring experience, I took time from busy school schedule to tutor students in Math and Science at a low income school near my college. After spending time tutoring students in a variety of subjects I decided to go for an education degree once I finished my undergraduate degree. While working towards my Masters degree I spent a semester working in the Seattle Public school as a substitute teachers aid. Once I finished my Masters degree and teaching certification I received a job as an Earth Science teacher. I taught for one year at that school and then moved to the state of Tennessee. For the past two years I have taught Biology, Physical Science, and Ecology.
I firmly believe that to be an effective teacher you need to make the subject interesting to the students. While teaching I think it is very important to provide examples as to why the subject matter is ... read more

I focus on cognitive development (Reading, writing, speech, creativity..) as well as social skills to prepare the child. I like to tap into the three most efficient instructional methods which are visual, physical and verbal when working with children. I have used a lot of visual resources in my past curriculum which have been very successful! I'm very attentive to children's behavior and body language and keep them in consideration throughout my interactions with them. I strive to make learning fun !
As a language trainer I am knowledgeable in all-levels of French training and tutoring I've worked professionally for clients of Cartus a global mobility management company. I've also held a position as a Arts and Crafts director and held full responsibility for planning, leading and instructing traditional and multi-cultural Arts & Crafts programs for children, ages 5-15.

I love experiencing the gratification of seeing the success of those I somehow influenced or assisted. I have assisted students/individuals meet educational and developmental goals ranging in age of 0 to college age. I believe everyone has the ability to learn when they can relate and apply the subject matter to their personal interests and area of specialization. My teaching style is tailored to each student's ability and need.
I have achieved much success in my life and continue to strive for excellence. I have a passion for helping others meet their personal goals, especially children. I have taught on the college level for approximately three years and have assisted babies 0-3 years meet developmental goals. I am available to tutor in psychology, English, grade-high school subjects.

My educational phylosophy is to advance student learning in science and mathematics. As a teacher, I create the environmet that promotes student confidence in the student's abilities and instill a sense of competence and a sense of self-worth. I am a constructivist that follows the Tennessee and national standards. All activities construct conceptual and problem-solving skills. I believe students learn science and mathematics effectively with relevant, hands-on experience. I design learning experiences that take into account the different learning styles and each student's knowledge base. I model behavior that demonstrates respect for others and create a climate for a free exchange of ideas.

More About This Tutor...

As my experience at college drew to a close, I found that the most rewarding activities I participated in were centered on education. I am a lifelong learner, and I love participating with others in the learning process. I set a relaxed atmosphere that fosters the students drive to ask questions and seek answers. I am comfortable with taking control of a session and speaking throughout (Lecture) or allowing the student to come up with their areas of difficulty and ask questions (Synthesis). I believe that educators frame the future of the young people they contact, and I want to help others as I have been helped in the past. I also would like the opportunity to learn by doing, and see if this field is the one for me.
As a college student, I was convinced early that I would become a doctor or scientific researcher. About halfway through my college career, I decided that while scienc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I firmly believe that teaching is about making meaningful connections that empower others. Therefore, I always try to first establish a comfortable rapport that is conducive to open communication. I then will determine the student's strengths/weaknesses and areas of highest interest. This allows me to develop individualized lessons that will be highly engaging and most effective at meeting the student's needs/learning goals.
Teaching has always come naturally to me. As a young teenager, I began helping younger siblings and neighborhood kids with their homework. As a mental health professional on an Adolescent Psychiatric Unit, I discovered that educating patients was far more empowering than implementing conventional Rogerian counseling techniques. In 1998 I began designing/facilitating classes on impulse control, assertiveness, and anger management. Ever since I have been t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past ten years I have been a student (BS), an engineer, a teacher, and a student again (MS, PhD). My interests in education have led me from the high-need classrooms on Chicago's West side to Vanderbilt's Peabody campus to engage a PhD program in educational policy. I have a wide body of experience ranging from coaching gymnastics and circus arts to university level chemistry and teacher education courses. Over the past several years, I have found the teaching-learning cycle to be incredibly rewarding.
Through my work with elementary, high school, and college students, I understand the anxieties that often surround math, science, and high pressure assessments. In tutoring and in the classroom I work to develop individualized scaffolding to build the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to successfully engage the material. As a great fan of history, art, politics, ... read more

I am an Elementary School Teacher certified in the state of Tennessee to teach K-6. I have experience teaching 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade and I am currently a 5th grade teacher. I enjoy working with children of all ages in all subjects.
I love being a teacher and getting the opportunity to work with children every day. I understand that each child is an individual and is unique. Every child has their own strengths and weakness and particular learning styles. I believe in finding out what will work for each individual child to help them reach their full potential. I believe that learning can and should be fun and interesting and that a child should feel a sense of pride and confidence in their academic accomplishments.

A Little Bit About Me...

People have all different manners of learning information, and most people need a lot of visuals and real life experiences, especially if their first language is not English. Teachers should be able to get to know each of their students and differentiate their instruction to help all of their students. Tutoring is a great way for teachers to get to know students better and thus better address their needs with quality instruction.
I have taught 5th and 6th grade ESL students for this semester, and I have taught English two summers in Korea at intensive English immersion camps. I have also tutored adult and college level students in English at UT while obtaining my degree and enjoyed it the most. Having quality one on one or small group time is the best for students to acquire the knowledge they need, and have instructors that can focus on their individual needs. Not only did I tutor ... read more

I would look for the background of tutee and tailor my presentation to the level of student. I would correct the deficiency of the student's background before addressing the current subject matter. I would give lots of detailed examples. I would start by stating the fact and the theorem , then give many examples to explain how this example applies to the theorem or fact.My approach is hands-on. I will monitor the learning process until the student has an in-depth mastery of the concepts
I have done individual tutoring in the last 35 years in a large number of subjects on call . This includes tutoring young children in math and other subjects. I tutored college and university students in Algebra, abstract algenra, linear algebra, Calculus, precalculus, areal and complex analysis,ordinary and partial differential equations,statistics and probability, statics, dynamics and many othe ... read more
