I graduated from Arkansas State University in 1974 and taught third grade for seven and a half years, then moved to another town and taught 5th grade resource for six years. I relocated to Tennessee and taught high school special education for seven years. After deciding that I enjoyed teaching younger children, I transferred to Cheatham Middle School, where I presently teach fifth grade inclusion. I taught summner school for several years, as well as doing homebound education for Cheatham County. I have also worked for A to Z Tuoring. I have had training in the Wilson Program for dyslexic children and have used the SRA Reading Program. I chose teaching as a career because I love working with children and making a difference in their lives. I want my students to be successful and will use the technique that works best for each child. I have been to several workshops and training se

While earning my M.F.A. I took an advanced course in the pedagogy of teaching writing, which focused on the teaching of remedial writers. I worked in the university's Writing Center as a consultant while also teaching a first-year composition course, and went on, after earning my degree, to teach college writing full time. At the Writing Center, I worked one-on-one with students to improve papers assigned for subjects as diverse as Biology, Economics, and Dancing. In addition, I have nearly ten years of experience editing literary magazines, and I wrote monthly articles for two different local magazines for two years. Not every student learns in the same way, and understanding this simple concept is crucial to successful teaching and tutoring. My goal is to understand where each student is in their larger journey as a writer, as well as where he or she is in terms of the immediate wor

Having graduated with a degree in mathematics and extensive work in engineering, I was positioned me for pursuits along technical and analytical exercises while bringing in insight beyond the rigidity of science alone. I have applied these skills in areas of I.T (electronic data interchange long before it was common place), research (developed database of metellurgy alloys for NASA), as well as public health (perform statistical analyses of unintentional injury (for CDC effort) and trauma for the state of TN). I have privately tutored many who have come to me, admitedly because of their own "struggle" with math. Testimonials of a few are available. I emphasize the learning of concepts and understanding to the extent that the student is able to teach them back to me as a validation to themselves that they have grasped the idea of the moment. Learning is progressive. Each student has h

Over the past ten years, I have worked for four school districts providing after-school tutoring to students with a learning disability. I have worked with all subject matters from preschool thru fifth grade. I have tutored my niece, nephew and cousin's children all thru elementary school. I have extensive experience in breaking down a skill and teaching it in smaller, more manageable pieces. I enjoy working with children, waiting for the "ah ha" moment to arrive. When it does, there is nothing, like it. I believe strongly in the saying "there are no bad students, only bad teachers". I believe that every student is capable of learning, the trick is to find a way that makes it real and applicable to each individual student. I believe that the keys to success are student motivation, the tutor's flexibility and lots of patience. Show them, let them touch it, model it, read it, break it

I am a hands-on teacher. I love to use visuals, manipulatives, real world story problems and life applications to make learning meaningful and fun. With two children of my own, I am very out-going, positive and patient when helping children to learn. With 13 years of experience in education, I am very committed to help children reach their maximum potential. I am certified to teach ages from infancy through 8th grade, but am willing to use my knowledge and expertise with other ages. Patience, creativity, dedication and loyalty are some of my strengths.

My style of teaching is one that strives to bring an overall understanding of the importance and relevance of the subject at hand. I believe children, as well as all people, learn much better and have much greater retention when they understand the bigger picture involved and understand why it is important to learn the subject at hand. I believe in relating the topics to something the pupil can understand and therefore grasp. One of my greatest teachers was a chemistry professor who was able to explain a complicated chemistry concept in terms of a McDonald's Happy Meal. It was something we all could relate to and understand. Furthermore, if I can relate why learning the particular topic is important, then I believe the child will become excited and be much more apt to retain and retell the information to others. That is my ultimate goal; I want to get children of all ages excited a

I try to communicate concepts in a simple and organized way and provide "shortcuts" whenever possible. I also try to keep in mind my own feelings and experiences as a learner of a foreign language (for me, Japanese). This helps me to be patient and understanding of the pressures and difficulties my students face. I use my own experiences as examples when trying to illustrate a point and give advice as a friend would. Hopefully this injects some humor and reality into my classes. I think I have taken my cues from the Japanese kindergarten teacher model, which is that of a big sister. I take responsibility for my students and serve as their role model; I am understanding and patient. I care about the progress of my students because in a sense they are my family and reflect back on me. I began working as an English teacher 6 years ago, when I was living in Japan. I had originally moved to J

I believe in teaching each student as an individual. When preparing lesson plans I try to find various avenues to accomadate all my students. I am an avid believer that every student can reach his highest potential if given the opportunity and tools to accomplish this goal. After teaching for twenty years in various states and situations, I have been helpful in creating and implementing lesson plans that have built the necessary skills needed to achieve each student's highest level of education. As a current MBA student, I have been successful as a writer and achieved a level of high excellence on various research papers for my current graduate school education. I have assisted several graduate and undergraduate students in grammatical skills and in creating class papers and reports. I am a grant writer and researcher and many of my grants have focused on various subject matters. I

I have worked with children at all different ages, as well as children with largely varying developmental levels. I believe that encouraging children when they do well is absolutely necessary to effective learning. I also learn each child's disposition so that I can develop effective ways to redirect when they are not on the right path. I wholeheartedly believe that to get the respect that comes with a child trusting me enough to learn from me, I must show 100% respect to that child; it is an even exchange. I truly care about children, their well-being, and their futures and I know that when I interact with children, they recognize my sincerity and are therefore able to trust, and learn. I have a strong desire to continue utilizing my critical and inferential thinking skills, interpersonal communication skills (oral and written), comprehensive scope of clinical skills, and knowledge o

My education and experience have provided me with the skills to offer an effective and beneficial tutoring experience. My accounting background and work experience, including a Big Four accounting firm and also a university, have enabled me to develop a comprehensive skill set in many areas of math and writing. My profession has required me to develop my grammatical skills to produce quality research, documentation, and presentations. I have trained many individuals during my career and look forward to enhancing the knowledge of youth so they may excel in their educational and professional development. I enjoy working with youth. I am able to assist your child in academic growth by using an approach that is unique to your child's learning style. I teach in a manner that is respectful and considerate of your child's goal to achieve academic excellence. By creating a tutoring experience in
