I am the Math Department Chair at Tarboro High School and have held this position for five years. I also teach Algebra 2, Algebra 2 Honors, Pre-Calculus, and Advanced Functions and Modeling. I have taught at Tarboro High School for ten years and prior to that, I had a successful business career as a Bond Analyst. I have a B. S. Degree in Mathematics and I am National Board Certified in Secondary Mathematics. I consistently have the highest EOC scores in my district and school with my first semester EOC scores at 93%. SAS EVASS data indicates that my A2 scores are significantly higher than the state average and this is remarkable because I teach in a rural, poverty school. I build relationships with my students and so they want to learn. I am patient, have a sense of humor, and possess a unique ability to make students understand complicated mathematical concepts. I am able to e

As an graduate of Elizabeth City State University, I have done exceptionally well. I learned so much through tutoring other students. When I tutored in the Business Department for Accounting and Finance classes, I gave some students hope, and some students even looked up to me. That they made me feel great and it really made me enjoy what I did because I helped a lot of the students turn the weaknesses into strengths. I feel as though every child can achieve the impossible, and with the help of someone giving them the attention that they deserve and need, they will feel better about themselves as well. I want to get a child in a learning mood where they'll want to go to school everyday and learn something. I want to be an inspiration to them or a role model or someone they can look up to for advice so that they can follow in my footsteps as far as finishing high school and continuing edu

I get a great satisfaction in helping others succeed. I help students understand the material in a straight forward way. I try to approach problems and relate them to everyday life. I also like to incoroporate the students likes or hobbies into problems to make in more interesting. As a MBA graduate, I was in determined to gain a higher level of education. While in grad school I tutored several classmates in various courses. I conducted and lead several study sessions. I tutored in accounting, math, statistics and computer application classes. I also tutored students while in undergraduate school.

I have been providing tutorial services for more than 10 years. My first tutorial assignment was at Edgecombe Community College in 1993. I worked one-on-one with students that were having difficulty in College Mathematics, Computer Technology, and Chemistry. Within the same year I also worked at Nash Community College tutoring students in Electronics Technology and Mathematics. In 1999, I taught middle school math. Based on my college transcripts, which displayed my engineering math courses, I was immediately promoted to teaching high school mathematics. Most of the students I taught where underachievers, repeaters, or transfers from AP courses. The school’s guidance counselor recognized my ability to inspire and motivate these students to become successful. After which, I was given the opportunity to work in developmental mathematics. In conjunction with my high school teaching

I have been working as a Substitute teacher for the last six years in Georgia as well as in the State of Washington. As my resume will indicate, I have experience at tutoring in the four major core subjects (Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies). I recently moved back home to the Wilson area after more than 30 years. I attended Elvie Street Elementary, 1963-67, Coon Junior High 1968, Darden High School 1970-71, Fike High School 1972-73 and graduated from Elm City High School in 1973. So you see, I am back home to stay and have an invested interest in ensuring that the student in this area get the best educational advice that we can give them. My teaching metaphor is one of being a person of integrity and honesty. Because of my broad knowledge of the different levels of the educational field, especially special education and early childhood, I feel as if I would be an asset to

I have taken 18 hours of Math courses including Algebra, Calculus, Business Mathematics and Math Analysis. I have my undergraduate degree in Accounting and an MBA in Accounting. I have worked as a Substitute Teacher at the Elementary, Middle and High School levels. I have written numerous research papers and business report. I have worked in the Auditing area professionally for over 10 years. I have taken an Effective Teaching class at our local Community College. We learn all types of techniques for helping students to learn. Some students learns by hands on applications others through repetition. Still each person is unique and I believe all students can learn. There are all types of material available including resource found on the Internet to make learning more fun and without boundaries.

I would be glad to work with students of all ages, but I prefer to work with a student individually rather than work with students in a group. From both my experience of being an informal tutor and being tutored, I find that students general prefer this style of tutoring because the tutor can both focus and better access their student's strengths and weaknesses in the particular academic subject they are having difficulty with. I have informally tutored people of various age ranges in the subjects, physics and math , for a period that ranges over about three years . I have taught younger relatives as well as helped people informally on online tutoring message boards with math and physics problems. I have also been paid to assist students in how to operate the basic commands of computational mathematical software for three years as well.

I love teaching and working with people. I believe that there is no set teaching style, due to people's indifferance. I believe that because people learn in differant ways, then a teacher/tutor should approach students in many angles. I believe with my background I should be a good candidate for the tutoring position. I have a B.S. Chemistry from Elizabeth City State University, where I did R&D work with Atrazine. Atrazine is a pesticide that was tested qualitatively and quantitatively using HPLC. I've completed coursework for a M.S. Chemical Physics from Norfolk State University. After being offered a Teaching Assistantship, I taught multiple chemistry laboratory classes. My graduate research focuses on synthesizing organic monomers for Photovoltaic applications; however, I have assisted with research devoted to immobilizing enzymes onto solid supports at the Center for Materials

My area of expertise is Chemistry, however, I have tutored students in all areas of science and math. I also have a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry with a minor in Biotechnology. I also have a PhD in Chemistry with a specialization in Biochemistry. As a teaching assistant in graduate school, I taught General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry Lab. However, over the past 10 years, I have tutored students in Algebra, Calculus, Geometry, and Anatomy and Physiology. It has been proven that students have different styles of learning. Thus, I understand that my tutoring approach will not be the same for each client. I usually start off with a detailed explanation of the problem that includes diagrams and models. If that is not enough, then I usually try a more spatial approach to the problem by demonstrating science and math in everyday life. I am very patient and easy-going, however, I
