More About This Tutor...

I have been a volunteer tutor at a local elementary school during their aftercare program. I have also been a mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Memphis to a first grader who had trouble with math (adding,subtracting, and multiplication). I have also helped fellow peers study for tests and the Reading and English sections of the ACT.
I believe a hands on approach to teaching a subject is the best way for a child to succeed. I believe that flashcards as well as games help younger children succeed in mastering a subject. Making a subject fun is key to helping a child tackle a tough subject. For older kids, practice tests are very helpful as well as flashcards. Encouragement and support is also an important part of mastery.

More About This Tutor...

I have discovered that every students is capable of achieving greatness if someone will take the time and effort to learn their learning style. I pride myself in being able to break things down to the most basic levels if necessary in order to reach a student. Often you have to know a child's personality, background, and home life in order to understand what he or she relates to. I don't believe in teaching a subject, I believe in teaching a student. I also do not believe in giving up. If the first method doesn't work then we will continue to try until something clicks and that child grasps the material and excels at it.
I have a BA in History/English from the University of Mississippi. I have been a teacher for the past year in Tate County Mississippi. This experience has allowed me to develop a teaching style to reach all types of learners. I have also been a tutor in English ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a high school honors graduate with a BA in English and teacher certification in English, Spanish, psychology, and special education. I am national board certified in special education. I have tutored in Memphis, and have also taught learning strategies. I am retired and eager to find part time work.
I have worked with children of many different ages and backgrounds, and have learned something from each and every one of them. My hope is that I have not only provided them with academic instruction and learning experiences that will prove beneficial to them, but that I have also instilled in them a love for learning that will last a lifetime and people skills that will allow them to be conscientious, contributing members of society.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to assist individuals of all ages. However, I love working with children simply because everything children learn while they are young, will remain with them when they are older. I know that every child is different. However, all children have the capacity to learn. Regardless if I am a tutor, I try my best to help children to become better individuals by being an example.
I am currently a senior at University of Mississippi. I graduate May 08, 2010 with a BA in Sociology and a minor in Psychology. I have tutored 4th graders at Della Davidson Elementary School in Oxford, MS in Reading and Social Studies. I love interacting with the students and found great reward in doing so.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate from a small private high school (graduating Salutatorian) and elite college (graduating Cum Laude), I was afforded the great opportunity to work closely with both my professors and peers. The intimate settings and ongoing relationships encouraged dedication and focus. Complementing my BA in Business (Accounting/Finance) degree with a minor in Anthropology/Sociology enhanced my ability to understand and effectively communicate among personality and learning types. My range of experience spans from high school age well into adulthood and across many subjects, including, but not limited to, English, Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus, French and comprehensive studies for the GED.
My background in sociology and tutoring combined with my client service experience has provided me with a unique ability to understand and communicate across all age levels and learning types. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style can best be described as varied! I believe that children learn in numerous ways, so as an educator it is my responsibility to provide multiple experiences - visual, oral, tactile, etc. A person walking by my classroom would see children smiling, working in groups, accomplishing projects, and would hear noise.
After graduating from Vanderbilt University I taught 5th grade for 2 years while working on my Master's at TSU. I then moved to the Knoxville area and taught K until my son was born in 2000. We then moved to Wisconsin where I taught in various after school programs until my 2 children were old enough for preschool. I then went back part time and taught 4 K until my 3rd child was born in 2005. Throughout this entire time I tutored various children ages 8 - 15 years if age.

More About This Tutor...

I am a strong believer in teaching a student how to learn. By that I mean, students not only need to know a specific subject matter but also how to aquire and use knowledge. My background is mostly in math and it is what I enjoy teaching the most. I like to use manipulatives to teach. I think students learn better if they have a "hands-on" approach.
I am certified to teach in both California and Texas in a K-8th grdae classroom. In California I taught in a self contained 5th grade classroom. In Texas I taught 7th grade math. I also hold a supplementary credential in California for Business.

I have a very relaxed teaching style when teaching my children at home during their homeschool, but they know if they don't do their work, they won't get far in life, and so far, of my eight children, there are four that are out of homeschool and have moved on to advanced education. The two oldest have their master's degrees from college and the third oldest is a senior in college on the dean's list and on the tennis team with a tennis scholarship. The fourth oldest is a freshman at the local community college with a high GPA so far. I am loving but firm in my teaching style, and show my love for learning and knowledge, which can be a way to make children love to learn as well. I go over everything very thoroughly until I know they understand the idea/concept before moving forward. I try to make them think on their own, figure things out as they go, but when they hit a rough sp ... read more

I have extensive experience in human development and learning. I understand as an educator developmentally appropriate practice must be used to ensure success of a student. The training I received at the University of Memphis and the University of Phoenix has equipped me with the tools needed to motivate, inspire and uplift learners.
My teaching style engage learners. I am an active learner which requires real life learning experiences. I believe students learn best when they are actively participating in the learning process. In my opinion learning is a lifelong journey that requires educators to be willing to teach as well as learn.
