Desktop Publishing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Locust Grove, VA

I am a dedicated professional who is passionate about helping students achieve academic success. This past year, I spent time as an SES Lead Tutor after school and in-home and tutored (Reading - phonics based - and Math) many children in grades K through 7th that held IEPs. I believe that each child learns at their own Pace and if they are tested, the gaps in their education will appear. Once these gaps are addressed, they can move forward with their peers. You must find out what works for each student and use that method to make learning fun. I believe in step-by-step hands on with a lot of practice. I would love to continue to have a positive impact on all students when it comes to Math and share with them the love that I have. I started out as a Computer Instructor and enjoyed teaching computer classes but something was missing. I saw that my children was not getting the education

I have been tutoring for nearly two decades; having lived and taught both in the U. S. and abroad. I am a highly qualified teacher in Elementary & Middle School & also in Special Education. I have had all successful experiences working one to one to teach, review, and reinforce skills in all subject areas in K.G. to 7th grade. I am patient and kind and can keep a student focused for each lesson by breaking down concepts using time frames to maintain attention. I not only help my students understand the subjects in which they are being tutored, but I also teach them important study skills and help them build confidence in their own abilities. One is never too young or old to enjoy the benefits from tutoring, and it is often a question of just a few months or even weeks before students are back on track.

I’ve graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2009. My Biology coursework has centered on theory, problem solving and critical thinking.

I also have a vast knowledge in biological/health science disciplines. As a result of my rewarding, teacher assistant and tutoring during my four academic years in science and math, I am confident that I could make a strong contribution to help students to understand the material.

When I teach reading, I convey my love of reading. When I teach math, I convey the logical beauty of math. When I teach other subjects, I stress the importance of the material and how it is relevant to everyday life. In Sunday school this week, we combined with another class, so there were people there who aren’t usually. Several of them thanked me and let me know how much they got out of it. My response is that I am a teacher. It’s who I am and what I do. I was a corporate trainer for 3 years, followed by 12 years serving as a software instructor. Prior to and throughout this time, I also taught Sunday school and Vacation Bible school, teaching everyone from 2 year olds to adults. I spent one summer as a reading tutor, and many of my software classes have been 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. I have volunteered as an SOL coach and in Head Start classrooms.

I spent most of my career training adults. For the last two years I have been employed with Richmond City Public Schools as a Title I Math Tutor. Growing up, I had a family of educators to encourage me to strive to do my best. Tutoring in the Richmond City School system has given me the opportunity to tutor and encourage these students to strive for their best. I have found my niche because of my love for children combined with my desire see them succeed academically. Knowing each child learns differently, an assessment of their progress based on test scores, observations and on-on-one tutoring, gives me the strategy I use to develop an individual plan. Some students work well in small groups and other need individual tutoring.

My teaching styles vary depending on the student. I had one student who was an adult, moving to Ecuador for 2 years to work. I taught him the basics using methods such as flash cards, workbooks, and homework assignments. We met 3x a week for 3 months. In college I taught a Spanish course for a Christian Highschool near my university. This was rather different since the students were in their early teens. My method with them was 'FUN.' I used pop culture and things that interested them to help them learn. For example: I had them bring in a picture of their favorite celebrity and they had to describe the colors, clothing, and characteristics of that celebrity in Spanish. It was a success. Graduating with a 3.4 GPA in Mass Communications, I have always been creative in both design and writing. I have earned a dual BS in Mass Communications with the emaphasis being in both Public Relations a

I like teaching and tutoring students in mathematics and science. I always believe that science and mathematics require innovation and creativity to fully understand the concepts. Throughout my years of teaching and tutoring I have developed effective techniques to make an immediate in a student's learning. I have been a mathematics and science tutor for the last ten years. As a former mathematics educator at the college level I feel that mathematics or any other science is possible to be learned and comprehended by the student through the use of real life examples. Moreover, in my time as a math and science tutor I always asked my students to devote patience and perseverance whenever they are starting to learn a new concept.

My teaching style is based on passion and reason. It's not only about motivating students to learn, but teaching them how to learn, and doing so in a manner that is relevant, meaningful, and memorable. It's about caring for my craft, having a passion for it, and conveying that passion to everyone, most importantly to my students. I teach my students the substance and treat them as consumers of knowledge. I consider my teaching style successful as it is about listening, questioning, being responsive, and remembering that each student and class is different. I tend to elicit responses and develop the oral communication skills of the quiet students. I work hard to push students to excel. During the 4 years experience teaching Arabic Language in Excellence Institute in Morocco I gained High experience and became a qualified Arabic Teacher. I possess clear appreciation of quality teaching a

I believe every child is unique and thus possesses his or her own unique learning style. Adapting to that learning style is key for any teacher. I like to provide examples which appeal to individual interests and help children to learn even when they may not realize they are learning. Students must trust your guidance, and my goal as a tutor has always been to develop a unique relationship with each tutee that enhances the unique learning capabilities for that student. As a University of Richmond graduate, I am a very driven student and education is my number one priority. As a second semester freshman at the university, I was selected as a Symbolic Logic tutor and also began tutoring Calculus and the Italian language. For three years at the university, I was an Italian teaching assistant for the Italian Studies department and also tutored locally in the city of Richmond on my own.

I enjoy working with students of all ages. I am patient, encouraging, and creative, always willing to step back and try a new approach to a problem. My goal in teaching is to lead the student to independent mastery of the subject, with an emphasis on critical thinking skills and problem solving. I love when a student begins to grasp hold of a concept and realizes his or her own ability and potential. I am a Masters Candidate and Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville studying for a degree in Chinese History. The study of history demands a high degree of research and critical thinking skills, as well as the ability to write persuasively and effectively. In addition to my strong academic ability and background, I have experience teaching in a variety of settings. I have substitute taught history, literature, and geography classes at a local homeschool tutor
