My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I taught Macbeth to twelfth grade high school students while student teaching at Berry College and have an comprehensive understanding of Shakespeare plays. I can explain the language and stories in a context that any teenager could understand.

I graduated from McIntosh High School in Fayette County and studied English and Secondary Education at Berry College. I student taught for a year at Rome High School before graduating and becoming a substitute teacher in Fayette County. I have completed three long-term substitute positions, two of which put me in charge of an entire classroom with all the responsibilities of a full-time teacher. Additionally, I worked at Aloha-USA Mind Math with Elementary Students as an English Teacher and occasionally a Math teacher.
I opt for making the material relatable to my students, which causes it to be more interesting and meaningful. When something is relevant, it is a lot more fun and kids are much more willing to want to learn, which is, of course, ideal.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a firm believer in understanding facts/concepts, and not simply memorizing or cramming them for a brief period of time. Therefore, my approach to tutoring is to present material in a manner that allows a pupil to learn at a comfortable pace, while crafting a lesson plan specific to individual needs. Having been in an intensely academic environment over the last few years of my life, I understand the importance of learning and doing well on standardized tests. However, having tutored high school students in the past, I also understand that its not always what you learn but how its taught to you that affects both test performance and long term retention of information.
As an undergraduate, I participated in two tutoring programs, over the span of two years, teaching middle school children afterschool and teaching Dominican immigrants during a summer ESL program. While in high sc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I use a hands-on approach when teaching my students. I believe the only way to master anything is by doing it. I encourage my students to incorporate their ideas, and give me ideas as well, so that I may cater to his/her learning style. I am patient,nurturing, and very understanding that not everyone catches everything the first time,but with patience,diligence, and much practice we can all succeed at any task at hand. For these reasons I do not discourage students from making mistakes, but encourage them to learn from those mistakes, and seize every opportunity. In the end I guarantee that your still will love learning, master his/her subject, and may even be able to tutor others in the same area!
Throughout all of my years of schooling, I have always been a high-achieve and always driven myself to exceed expectations. Beginning in high school, I tutored all high school math-wh ... read more

I graduated from Spelman College in May 2009 with a BA in English. As an English major, I learned to think critically, use proper grammar mechanics, proofreading skills, critical reading techniques and research and argumentation skills. I wrote numerous papers on many subject matters and received very high marks. In the last four years, I have served as a mentor and tutor for various grade levels and different educational levels. In my time as a tutor and mentor, I helped many students with their reading and writing skills.
While teaching, I employ the constructivist learning theory. I begin with what the student knows and build off of their prior knowledge. To test what they know beforehand, I would administer a short pretest on some basic skills and once that test has been evaluated, I will begin teaching from the information with the least familiarity. While engaging in one- ... read more

I find an interactive, Socratic teaching style in which I encourage the student to discover the answers on their own to understand why something works the way it does is a very effective approach for me rather than just lecturing, particularly for younger learners. I find it equally important for students to understand the why of what they are learning as well as the how and the what. I believe that students' multiple intelligences should be harnessed and that if students don't understand information presented initially, it is up to the teacher to find different ways of presenting the information so that the student can make it his or her own.
I have over 11 years of experience providing in home tutoring to individual high school, elementary school, and middle school students as well as adults for test preparation as well as for academic subject preparation. I have also had 6 ye ... read more

I have five years of experience in teaching, childcare, mentoring and community service.

My teaching style is to lead by example. Being that I am a visual learning I try to work in steps showing them what is expected and them I allow them to slowly work it out themselves based off of what I've done. I've done a lot of teaching to children with Autism and our teaching style varied to fit the way the child was able to learn. I also took Educational Psychology in graduate school and learned the meaning of intentional teaching, which is teaching with the intent of having the student learn what you are teaching.

I am passionate about my subject, and have tutored students on both the high school and college level in all aspects of reading, writing, literature, and grammar. I believe that one-on-one attention and a willingness to tailor your approach to the individual's needs can make a real difference. I enjoy helping students enjoy the language arts as much as I do. I look forward to working with you, whether on reading comprehension, poetry, or a persuasive essay.
I hold a bachelor's degree in English and am currently pursuing a masters degree in secondary English education. I have worked in sales writing, marketing, and editorial capacities, and these experiences have enabled me to broaden my academic understanding of language and apply it to many real world, every day situations. I know how much a strong foundation in reading and writing can help in a business environment.

I earned a BS in Computer Science from Berry College with a minor in Animal Science and one class short of a second minor in English. During my senior year I worked as a teaching assistant, helping the freshman programming class complete their assignments as well as grading their work and running study sessions. I just finished a master's in computer science at Rice University (degree to be awarded December 2010) and during my time at Rice I was a TA both for their freshman class as well as for the advanced Operating Systems class. Before I graduated I spent summers teaching horseback riding to children. Currently, I am independently tutoring a sixth grader in math twice a week.
