Speaking Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Jones, AL

I utilize elements of each of the five teaching styles; however, I prefer the I Do, We Do, You Do style of learning. I firmly believe in providing clear instruction and demonstration of each concept. Then, the student and I work together to master a concept. After that, I provide the student an opportunity to practice and demonstrate his/her mastery of the material in a variety of situations. If the student still needs help, I reteach. I believe in positive reinforcement. Every student can succeed. No one succeeds if he/she feels unimportant or unsuccessful. Attitude is as essential to success as a mastery of content. I have more than 20 years of teaching experience students in grades 7-12. I currently teach 10th grade English and work part-time with Han Academy. I have more than ten years experience teaching Advanced Placement Language and Composition, Advanced Placement Literatur

I truly appreciate helping children, young adults reach their maximum potential and become the best with the gifts they are endowed. I will meet them at their level of learning, assess their abilities and work with them as needed. This requires an assessment of their level of reading, phonics, and analytical abilities. A "good teacher and counselor makes all the difference in a child's life." As the valedictorian of my high school class, I know that all children have the ability to achieve their highest level of education with proper mentoring, coaching and training. All children deserve a healthy start in school and life. I enjoy assisting children with English, research papers, reading and creative writing, and science. My preference is children who are in elementary to middle school.

In general, I simply love working with children. I find great happiness in knowing that I personally helped a child succeed academically. As the oldest of four children, I have always been a leader amongst my siblings and always found myself helping them academically as they grew older. In tutoring, I consider myself to be very patient and understanding that all children have a different learning style. Being able to continue helping children succeed through tutoring would be a great pleasure to me. I have recently earned a Bachelor's Degree in Legal Studies and graduated Summa Cum Laude, which is the highest of academic honors. In order to obtain my degree, I was required to take several courses in a very broad area of study including writing, literature, reading, mathematics, history, and sciences.

I believe that everyone is capable of being anyone that they choose to become. It may come harder to some, than most. I love to listen and use students personal experiences as a part of their learning process because that's what they understand the most. I love to communicate and bring the most out each person (hence the psychology degree). Everyone deserves a chance at a dream; allow me help you with yours. Hi, my name is Shonda Leaks and I’m originally from Detroit Michigan. I have been working in the auto industry for about 20 years. I have degrees in Psychology and Quality control.

I am a champion for youth. While obtaining my education, my passion for children inspired me to tutor and mentor youth and young adults in programs like Educational Talent Search, Upward Bound, and Student Support Services. Furthermore, my interest in youth and education led me to begin teaching on the high school and collegiate levels. For several years, I have tutored and/or taught students in English, writing, public speaking and presentation skills, psychology, and ACT/SAT preparation. My goals as a teacher revolve around sharpening the critical thinking and analytical skills of students, challenging them to reach their full potential, while simultaneously encouraging them and providing a safe, caring environment that is conducive to learning. I believe that school should not be to teach students to regurgitate information, but to learn to think and problem solve in various situati

I love to work with children of all ages. I have a seven and three year old myself. My seven year old is a straight A student and my three year old excels in academics as well. I was the youth director at my church and I absolutely loved helping children of all ages to learn and be excited about it. I used to tutor the children at my church every Wednesday night. Each and every child has the ability to learn and I have the ability to teach them. I have always been driven to achieve the impossible! After having my first daughter at the age of 15, I realized how important an education really is. I am happy to say that I will be obtaining my degree from Ole Miss and are continuing to strive for every goal. Meaning, I will be attending Graduate school in the fall. I will have a degree in English and an minor in African American Studies. I am always willing and encouraging others to

During my years at Alabama State University, I helped numerous of my colleagues with all levels of Math. Even though I earned my degree in Accounting, I have always been excellent in all Math classes. I have been tutoring Math since I was in high school and have helped a lot of people understand different Math processes easier. I enjoy tutoring or showing someone how to solve a Math problem but, I know some will understand quickly than others. I have great patience working with children and helping them understand the true concepts to solving a problem. My unique teaching style is to get the children to think about Math in there everyday life and compare it to something they are familiar with. I will not stop until I feel that they have established a better understanding for the subject.

I am a conversational teacher. I try to always start with where the student is at and build from there. I like listening to students and relating to them at their level and letting them draw from me all that they can take and encourage their learning. I believe the best learning takes place when students are provided the proper atmosphere in which to learn. Also, in order for students to be successful, they must be allowed to deal with things that interest them and that serve more needs than just to fulfill an assignment, so I try to keep it relevant, customized, and, of course, as much fun as possible! I have a very long history in school -- I have been in and out of school for many, many years, staggering my diploma, bachelor's, master's and doctorate across 25 years interspersed with jobs in industry. I believe learning is a lifelong process and that it never ends! I have a diploma in
