I have taught Logic in a classroom environment. I am a teacher with 7 years of classroom experience. My degree is in English, but I have taught in many other areas, including math, history, logic, and rhetoric. I have also tutored many students in grammar and writing, as well as Algebra I and II. I have been responsible for teaching books to students from American Literature (Hawthorne and Hemingway), European Literature (Dickens and Shakespeare), and World Literature (Gilgamesh and Homer). I prefer the Socratic method of asking/answering questions and discussion, but I am more than capable of diverting to a more lecture style of teaching if that is what works with the student. I tailor my teaching style to the strengths of the student.

I am a very laid back person, but also very disciplined when it comes to my instruction. If there is not a certain level of comfort and respect between the student and teacher, no learning will take place. I care deeply about the success of my students and try to go above and beyond to show them that I am invested in them completely, not just in their math studeies. I have taught for a total of 15 years at Arab High School. I have taught the following in the classroom setting, but I have tutored for even longer in all subjects that I indicated.

As a versatile educator, I have had the opportunity to teach students who functioned below, on, and above grade level. I have been very successful at accommodating diverse student needs by facilitating all styles of learners, offering individual and extracurricular support, and integrating effective materials in the classroom. I encourage learning by using a number of different manipulative, hands on activities and various forms of technology. By incorporating class discussions, open-ended questions, and cooperative learning, I am able to facilitate student progress rapidly, locate areas of weakness, prepare students for exams, and ensure that students integrate knowledge gained from classroom into the real world. After finishing my student teaching at Brookwood Middle School in Tuscaloosa, Alabama with Ms. Jerica Vanoy’s eighth grade class this semester, I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in M

My experience ranges a great deal and encompasses a lot of subject matter from K-12 Math to English and Literature. My wide range of expertise is indicative of my schooling where I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications that exposed me to the Liberal Arts world; while my minor in Industrial and Systems Engineering and Master of Science degree in Information Technology exposed me to more technical subject matter (i.e. various levels of Math). I have had the privilege of tutoring approximately 5 clients in the span of roughly 2 years and each one under my tutelage boasted significant performance improvement in subject areas they found initially challenging. I love teaching and interacting with willing minds.

I have always had a love for teaching, tutoring, and mentoring people of all ages. I know that everyone has strengths and weaknesses and I believe you can pull on these things to help people be successful in almost anything. I am friendly and work very well with people, having a special gift of explaining things in ways people can understand. I know I can't change the world, but I plan on affecting everyone I come into contact with. Receiving a BS in Mathematics Education has helped my mind to expand mathematically and in my teaching methods. I believe I was adequately prepared to teach through my education and my first couple years teaching. I have also tutored in math, history, spanish, and computers to all ages through colleges and independent tutoring.

I personally believe that every student has the potential to succeed. Having a positive outlook and attitude along with a sense of humor in everyday situations allows me to provide students with room to be creative and independent and to make each tutoring session more enjoyable. I strive to raise the bar because I know that each student can achieve the level of expectation that is realistic for him or her, thus developing a confidence tool that creates a safe, positive learning environment. If students are given coursework that stretches them without paralyzing them, they will approach new assignments with more enthusiasm. I am working on my Master's degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. I am taking classes at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and Alabama Agricultural & Mechanical University. I have been practicing tutoring since my undergraduate (Ban

I think educators must take into account the different ways in which students learn. For instance, I've noticed that math students may have difficulty adding and subtracting fractions, but have no trouble whatsoever when I ask about dimes and quarters. If an instructor can build a bridge between new material and material the student has already mastered, the student's retention can significantly improve. By getting to know the interests and knowledge of each, I hope to discover bridges that will make learning an exciting and enjoyable process. I graduated from Wake Forest in 2008, double-majoring in Mathematics and Physics. I also took some courses in the Education Department, and substitute taught for public high schools and middle schools in Winston-Salem, NC and Metairie, LA.

As a college graduate, I learned the subject of mathematics. I was a math club member for 4 years. Also I have a BS in Mathematics and Economics. During the past 10 years I have been tutoring on my own at various locations. I believe that everyone should have some knowledge of the subject. So I take what little they know and incorporate into the things they don’t. My goal is to find the easiest way to teach the student and show several different ways of doing it. I want to make a difference in each student’s lives while not making learning difficult.

For the past 2.5 years, I have been in middle and high schools working with English teachers and students. Though I often worked as a substitute, I was able to teach students lessons and work left by teachers who knew of my experience and knowledge of Language Arts. I received a MA in English Education from University of Alabama in Huntsville as well as a BA in English and Theatre from Union University. I am Highly Qualified with the state of Alabama and have been trained through the Alabama Reading Initiative. I have spent years working with students and am comfortable teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I believe in interactive learning. Students learn best when they are in a safe environment, which I can provide. I have experience breaking down large assignments and helping students to accomplish one task at a time. My goal is to help students see that any project (writ

When I was studying for my master's degree in Middle Tennessee State University, I worked in the Math Lab as a Graduate Assistant. I tutored math, statistics and some finance problems. I've also given private Chinese lessons in my spare time.I am a professional tutor. I not only have good knowledge of the fields I tutored, but also know how to effectively communicate with students. My classes are interesting and easy to understand. I like teaching and helping students. I have great patience and sense of humor to make my topic intersting. I tutor college students/adult most of the time. Since I have a broad knowledge of many different fields in language, math and economics, I can teach students a better way to learn and to understand the subject beyond the books. I enjoyed tutoring and I think studying should be fun and simple. Learning is a joy in life.

Teaching is my passion. Students need to be challenged, engaged, and eager to learn which is fueled by the enthusiasm of the teacher. I recognize that not every student in my classroom learns in the same manner. Various teaching methods need to be combined so that students have the opportunity to learn in multiple ways. The more opportunities that are available for a student to learn, the more valuable the education becomes for the student. Therefore, the most successful teaching technique is one that involves a variety of different methods where relevance is the umbrella in order to accommodate every student's unique learning style and needs inside and outside of the classroom. As a special education teacher, I am highly motivated to see all students succeed both inside and outside of the classroom setting. I have earned a bachelor degree in Political Science with a minor in History and

In many ways, learning can be customized to fit the individual interests of students, and I challenge myself to make each session one filled with new ideas and topics. I believe that the combination of hobbies and personal interests, along with the subject matter is the key to learning. While focusing on science, I strive to introduce other related topics and probe for what each student is interested in. Further, I believe in teaching through learning. Students love to express their own ideas about science, math, and civics, and through challenging these ideas, a teacher can instruct, while simultaneously empowering the student. Completion of a BSBA degree in Management of Information Systems has given me valuable experience in a wide array of business functions as well as a team based and case driven experience over four years. The strongest of my skills are in reading, math, and tec
