More About This Tutor...

My name is Jim, and I'm excited to have the opportunity to be your or your child's tutor.I am a junior at Georgia Tech now. I have a double major of mechanical and computer science. My GPA is 3.7, and I got a full score of math in all my ACT tests. Also, I am top 25% students in my major. Since 2012, I have taught TOEFL, SAT, ACT and Chinese to students at test-prep and language. I am now doing co-op program in washington, GA.
I review concepts until it's clear that the student has mastered them, and new ones are introduced only when the student is ready. In addition to increasing my students' scores, I help students take ownership of their learning, with the goal of making them an independent and successful student.

More About This Tutor...

It is my belief that every person learns differently. Students learn best by different methods and learn at different methods. I find that the best way to tech a student, especially in a one on one environment is to find how the individual best learns and use that, rather than trying to teach by any already formulated method.
As an engineering graduate from Georgia Tech, I have a high level of skill in mathematics, from algebra to calculus and differential equations, and in sciences, especially physics. Also, I began my college career at the University of Alabama, where I was in the honors program. There I had to write numerous papers in the subjects of literature and history, while at Georgia Tech I became proficient in writing technical reports. Also, I have performed duties as a lifeguard and Special Olympics assistant coach, while working for Tuscaloosa County Parks and Recreat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children of all ages, and like combining education with fun. I am a thoughtful, creative, and patient teacher, and like to encourage children to approach problems and questions in their own way, frequently with examples and projects that will better illustrate a subject area. I feel I have many unique skills and attributes to offer your program. Raised in a multi-cultural environment, I am bilingual in Italian, fluent in Spanish, and proficient in French and Portuguese. I have traveled to more than 35 countries, frequently alone, and love sharing the interesting tales and adventures that I've had around the world, and let them influence my interactions with others.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a United States Air Force veteran and I was responsible for training new airmen on the proper operation and maintenance of survey equipment. I assisted many of my co-workers with math modelling and geometry while they were pursuing their civil engineering degrees. I have 2 Bachelor degrees, BS in Civil Engineering from Georgia Tech (GPA 3.29) and BS in Science from Georgia College and State University(GPA 3.72). I am very passionate about math and I believe that if you excel at math you will excel in all areas of study since math teaches the student to read and comprehend as well as apply problem solving skills.
I love teaching and I like to teach using examples. I like to present the material in a variety of ways with the knowledge that some students are visual learners and some benefit more from verbal examples. I would provide everyday examples and relate the problems to ev ... read more

My teaching style is hands-on. I believe that while students gain knowledge through auditory and visual methods of learning, it is vital that they are given practical tasks that put their skills to use. I love seeing kids make mistakes with their work with the realization that they can overcome them through hard work and persistence. I am enthusiastic about education and how it creates endless opportunities for people seeking to make a positive impact on the world through their respective future careers.
I was in the Teacher Apprenticeship program from 2003-2004 at my high school, where I taught and tutored two classes of 8th grade students for my mentor teacher. In college, I proofread many papers for friends and did extensive legal research and writing, which continuously improved my writing ability. I vastly enjoy writing papers and performing research for academic purposes, esp ... read more

I do enjoy teaching and I have worked with all types of children. I think it is an asset to observe how children learn and to be able to tap into their level of interest. I believe children need to be encouragement, to be challenged, to experience success, and to develop an excitement about learning. Once a child has experienced a level of success and an excitement for learning the sky is the limit to what they can accomplish.
As a teacher I have many years of experience in various types of settings, I have worked in urban, rural settings, and with students of varing degrees of learning ablilities. I have enjoyed the challenges of working with all sorts of students and seeing them gain self-confidence and excell. I have worked in tutoring programs in and out of the public school system.

I have been involved with youth for a long time as scoutmaster and as coach in recreational soccer. I enjoy working with children, especially if they are willing to learn and improve their skills and knowledge. I assess the student's grasp on the subject and determine where assistance is needed. Using various means I then help the student to get the knowledge needed to achieve academic success.
As a student in high school, I became fascinated with Chemistry and went on to earn a BS in Chemistry. The position I landed after school dealt with additives in rubber and plastics, so eventually I went on to earn a MS degree in Polymer Science. This helped me to land a better position. When the recession hit around 2000 and I lost my job, I determined to learn more about computers and summarily earned two AA degrees while working first part-time and later full-time in the computer field.

I have homeschooled my children and taught in an academic co-op with other homeschooled children. During the last ten years I have tutored elementary children in all academic subjects required for success on their current grade level.

My strongest area of expertise in teaching is reading. I have taught it for years. I have come to the conclusion through both personal experience, observation of other master teachers and through current educational research that it is most necessary to teach reading and math daily in a systematic manner while exposing the students to a learning rich environment(a classroom reading corner full of books is ideal for this). Research shows that a child needs 100 exposures, repetitions of for example the word “fox” to learn how to read it and make it their own.
I have worked with children in the public school system for thirty-four years as a classroom teacher, Title I augmented reading teacher and as a media specialist. Largely due to my years experience as a reading teacher my class of inner city children scored in the top one percentile on the Georgia Criterion Reference Test(GA ... read more
