Carpe Dieum...Sieze the day!

I have my Pre-K through 8th grade elementary education credential from West Virginia, California and North Carolina. I have also taught High School classes and worked as a guest lecturer for college level courses. I have 10 years of experience as a teacher and I have my administrative credential from CA. I have worked eight years as a school administrator at private and public schools.
Motivation is the key to everything we do in life. I use this to drive my students to excel beyond what they think they are capable of accomplishing. I utilized experiential theory and real-world experiences to drive my education to make lessons relevant, fun and interesting. I utilize the constructionist learning theory where I establish where my students are with the given subject and attach new knowledge structures to support continue growth where they build their overall schema and level of under ... read more

Young grandmother with open heart and open mind

On the professional end, I was an accountant (CFO type) for a very long time. My most recent "job," though, was publishing a natural health magazine (4 years). I walked away from it all late summer 2011 to work my spiritual path and providing patient and heart-centered tutoring to elementary children works well with this path. Children can feel that I enjoy them so they like me. I am a grandmother of two (2 and 6). Contact me at CarolinaLightWave@gmail.com to set up a meeting. With gratitude, Barbara

Poor college kid trying to make a living

I’m good with kids, high school and below I can break it down easily, I have good study habits, and I like to encourage people to better themselves educationally. My best subjects are in high school is math and chemistry. And I could teach anything middle school and below. I am a digital media student so I am also good with computers.
Friendly understanding and patient. You gotta relate the kid and make them want to learn if they are actually gonna listen and absorb the information.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in accounting. I have very strong math skills, especially in Algebra, which is what my daughter is learning now. I excelled in grammar, art, health, and science as well. I was a teacher at a private school for a year after college before I started a family and began home schooling. My daughter is now in the 8th grade and tests at the college level in reading and high school levels at most other subjects.
I have a daughter in the 8th grade and a son in the 6th. I have home schooled them the past 9 years. They have very different learning styles which has helped me to learn to teach in different ways to accommodate their needs. I am patient and easy going and I love helping kids.

More About This Tutor...

I have wanted to help others learn for as long as I can remember; even as early as the fourth grade I was helping my classmates with assignments. I have always loved learning and helping others to learn. I earned a BS in Psychology in college so I would have a better understanding of how the mind works and learns. I never turned a person down; if I did not know much about a subject I would research it. I even took a course that would teach me how to assist individuals with essays and research papers. I have tutored students in many subjects mostly focusing on psychology including many different areas such as introduction, statistics and experimental design. I have also tutored in biology, history, math, and basic computer skills.
I do not have a particular style of teaching. I prefer to talk to the individual I am tutoring and together discover the best way to teach them the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Due to the fact that I was born and raised in Germany and have since lived in various foreign countries, I have adopted sensitivity when it comes to culture and characters. As a teacher I learned to be very observant before implementing a specific teaching strategy. Not only does every child have a different character, but they are all brought up in different surroundings and family constellations. Through my involvement in the Big Brother's Big Sister's program I learned that private family matters are directly related to acedemic success. As in my case tutoring involved building the child's confidence and self-esteem which ultimately had a positive effect on academics.
While working on my Management MBA in Largo, FL I was elected head of the English Learning Center, and held this position for two years. The purpose of the center was to tutor international students in the English ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with all types of people, as helping people is a great passion of mine. I find it effective to teach by relating to something that the person I am teaching really enjoys. For example if they love basketball, I may try to relate the subject to it, to make it easier to learn. I have a lot of patience and usually have no problem helping someone. I know all it takes is time and hard work to achieve their goals.
I have tutored slightly at my present community college. I tutored math. I have my Associates of Arts degree in Psychology and am currently in the process of obtaining my Bachelors Degree in Psychology and Education. I plan to teach Psychology in the future.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that a great educator is a great learner. I am always up for learning new things, so that I am able to teach someone else my new skill. I believe in a hands on approach to learning. The more that can be discovered by doing is much more beneficial than just reading from a text. I am a patient and caring person who is dedicated to taking the time to make sure that your child receives the attention that he or she needs.
I have wanted to work with kids all my life. I love the way that they learn and think, and how different it is from adults. I studied Biology at Warren Wilson College in hopes of becoming a high school biology teacher. While at college, I did over one hundred hours of service tutoring and mentoring high school and middle school students in Buncombe County. Since graduating in 2009, I decided to take a break from school, and figure out where I wanted to go in ... read more
