Making Learning as fun as possible.

I prefer to have a fun learning environment. I think you learn from hearing, seeing, and doing.
I’ve had many years of practice in the tutoring field dealing with the fact that my brother has a learning disability. He likes to have fun and thinks that leaning is boring, so I try to make learning as fun as possible. Then I have my student on student tutoring when the students tutor each other. I think its better that way because most students don't really pay attention to their teachers but they take it better when it comes from another student. Sometimes its better because something you understand they may not understand and when you explain it to them then may be they will understand it a little better. Basically what im saying is that some kids learn better from other kids.

Anyone CAN learn ANYTHING...I promise. :)

Currently a junior at the University of Memphis, I am seeking a Bachelor's degree in English. I love to write, and have always been the dictionary for people, so my concentration is in Creative Writing. I have very high marks in all my English classes, (transcripts for which available upon request) and am currently 12,000 words into my first book. I have tutored children of many ages in the past, many of whom suffered with audio/visual difficulties such as dyslexia and other reading/comprehension difficulties. Each child who applied their tutoring lessons to their in-school learning excelled in their school work/grades.
I believe that happy people not only learn faster, but they also retain more. Far too much of our kids' lives are spent cooped up indoors. Therefore, I like to take an open-door approach to learning and like to schedule as many sessions as possible out of the house/ ... read more

Education is a tool one can use for a lifetime.

I am a teacher who believes that each student learns differently. I am known to mix traditional teaching with responsive classroom teaching. The responsive classroom is one where there is more engagement and is more student focused rather than teacher focused.
I have a total of 6 years experience in teaching. I have experience teaching in a private christian school setting, a public high risk school setting, as well as a public optional school setting. I have taught Kindergarten (all subjects) and 3rd grade (Math). I am certified to teach K-6 but am highly qualified by the state board of education to teach Language Arts and English up to grade 8.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I understand the foundation of reading that includes phonics, phonological awareness, fluency, phonemic awareness, composition, and vocabulary.

I have worked with the Memphis City/ Shelby County school system for 16 years as a substitute teacher. I have managed to substitute in all grades to include Pre-K up to the twelth grade. I am able to go in read, and follow the lesson plan in order to carry the class on in the teachers absence. Also, I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse group of students.
During these sixteen years I have worked in many different capacities. I am able to adapt to the various teaching styles.

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring professional for six years and teaching for five. I am certified by the state of Tennessee to teach secondary math. I have worked with all levels of students, from remedial to gifted. I have worked from age 7 through adult learners and had a positive impact at each age and level.
I spend much of time making the student understand that it is okay to feel behind in a subject and that the student should believe in himself. This belief is built on continued practice on fundamentals that I watch them go through but only ask questions when I see them going astray. Everyone needs to learn the material for his or herself. My place is to make sure they learn the right methods to solve the problem and ensure that they know those methods beyond the tutoring session.
