A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored elementary students during my tenure in the Air Force on a volunterr basis. I worked as a Introduction to Computers instructor at Keiser College for two semesters. I have a fascination with math and numbers. My extensive experience with budgeting and using spreadsheets and formulas has kept me fresh with my math skills. I recently tutored a 50+ adult to take a math skills test for the CRC. He passed, and was had such a sense of accomplishment, after almost giving up hope that he could pass it.
I love to learn, and love passing that on to others. I am a patient personality, and I may present a problem to a student to evaluate where they are. From there, we can go either backwards or to more advanced work. Education is very important for myself and for my children, and I like to instill that learning takes you further in life than where someone may have not eve ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent the last four years teaching World History, Government, Economics and Learning Strategies at Gentry High School. I continue to fulfill all of the regular and expected duties of a social studies teacher such as weekly and long-term lesson planning. In addition to these responsibilities, I hold my students and myself to extremely high standards, pushing my students to exceed the maximum level of expectations, fostering academic and personal success. In doing so, I witness my students accomplish an ambitious goal of eighty percent mastery in the content area. I utilize a number of tactics ensuring my students ability to achieve at the highest level. I consistently differentiate within the classroom, collaborate with other teachers, utilize a system of learning based around Blooms’ Taxonomy, and assess my students in multiple ways. My students also know the moment they ste ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Since my graduation from Ole Miss in 1985, I have had the delightful experience of teaching children from all walks of MS. The children of MS have a thirst for knowledge that is rarely discussed in the media. Our children want to learn! I've instructed every grade level from K-8, inclusive, tutored Pre-Alg,Alg I, and admin correspondence courses for students who needed a one-on-one teacher. I obtained my Masters from Mississippi State in 2008. I have experience in the diverse ideologies presented in the educational programs of two of the largest universities in MS. Currently, I am enrolled in undergraduate math and English classes to secure additional course hours so that I may hone my skills in this every changing technical world!
I believe that all children are teachable! Every person, each child, is unique and it is my responsibility to evaluate and determine the most approp ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that every student deserves a quality education, and it is my responsibility not just to lecture or impart information, but to ensure that students gain a fundamental understanding of the material being presented. Consequently, I believe that learning should be an expansive process. Students need to acquire knowledge, retain it, and build upon it rather than memorize bits of information that will be later forgotten.
I have taught as an English Instructor at East Mississippi Community College and Mary Holmes College. I taught several courses. Developmental I and II were very basic grammar and writing courses. Composition I and II were courses that introduced students to writing essays and the research paper. In addition, I have also taught English as A Second Language at Mississippi State University and Greater Columbus Learning Center. I taught grammar, readi ... read more
