Communications Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lula, GA

I believe that a lack of success in academic's is usually attributed to one of two things; a lack of motivation(it's not fun enough) or a misunderstanding of the fundamentals(which brings a feeling of hopelessness). This is particularly true in foreign languages. Many times a person must rewire their brain when it comes to learning a new language. My goal in tutoring is to help students not just fix a problem but create an overall understanding of what they are learning. I also like to focus on making goals and increasing motivation to learn. It is important to me to teach not only those skills but work on life values like respect, curiosity, creativity, and comprehension. I have always been a very curious and academic person. I love to learn and like to pass that on to my students. It makes it easier because I have really lived a lot of the things I teach. I grew up in a

I was a teaching assistant at North Georgia College and State University for three years. I assisted with laboratory sections of biology courses and taught them in the event of a professors absence. I provided department funded tutoring services during that time as well. I have taken the GRE and Biology Section of the GRE and received excellent scores on both tests in only one sitting. I have also coached 4H horse quiz bowl and horse judging teams for several years working with elementary and middle school age children.

Hello! Thank you for your time. In the summer of 2002, I tutored children from ages 6-12 years at an educational camp. I usually tutor young adults, focusing on conversational English, as well as grammar and writing. In addition, I am an editor/consultant for many professionals in writing composition, speeches and presentations, and editing documents. Although my experience is mostly with older students, I absolutely love children and get along with students of all ages. I have a very creative approach to teaching English, coming up with fun and visual methods of understanding key concepts based on the needs of the student, as well as his/her own learning process. My strengths are proofreading and editing, as well as structuring writing to be the most effective in communication. I also earned a perfect score of 6 out of 6 in the writing section of the GRE for graduate school. I al

I believe that a good teacher has a great deal of "real life" experience in the field they are teaching and can bring to the student "real life" case studies to show the right and wrong way to do things. I find having a lecture/presentation and then open discussion is most beneficial to my students. Many of my students keep coming back to various classes I teach because they trust me and feel comfortable enough to ask questions that are relevant to their individual interests and needs. I work with a Marketing/PR/Video agency (Purple Duck Marketing)with offices in Seattle and Atlanta. My expertise is in helping businesses and nonprofits create integrated marketing plans and campaigns to effectively increase awareness and revenue. I also teach classes for nonprofits at the Foundation Center (Atlanta) as well as independently. With more than 20 years experience, my greatest passion is

Children and youth are our greatest asset. I believe that all children can be reached. The key is to connect with them early and establish mutual respect. I am patient but I also know how to ensure that the pace is maintained for the good of everyone.

I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be. AS far as actual teaching styles go, I am demonstrative when necessary but always aiming to be more of a delegator to allow for a student to become a "learner" themselves. I have included descriptions of both styles below for you to understand their applications. Demonstrator or Personal Model Teachers who have a demonstrator or personal model teaching style tend to run teacher-centred classes with an emphasis on demonstration and modeling. This type of teacher acts as a role model by demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply the

I feel that teaching will not only inform young minds to think differently or make them more motivated to learn. But to allow one to master his or her knowledge in general, teaching allows oneself to fully understand the subject in their own minds. Young minds such as children are easily impacted by an adult, which I feel that that should be influenced with positive, enjoyable learning. Allowing a young mind to like learning or studying will allow them to become very motivated individuals in life. I will only strive to make a positive difference in a child's life and let them enjoy the simple discoveries of learning. Being a Georgia Southern graduate, I learned to enforce high level thinking and appreciation of education. I received a bachelor degree in Civil Engineering Technology, which has enabled me to get a feel of hands feel in the area of math and science. With previous work

I absolutely adore children and love watching them grow intellectually. I have a passion for teaching and thoroughly take pleasure in working with children of all ages and all levels. I sincerely believe that each child has the capability to learn and each child has his or her own personal learning style. I believe that it is my duty to help any child explore his or her own learning abilities and grow. I believe that learning should be constructive and can be joined with the theories and ideas of ever day life so it can be easily understood. My goal is to make a significant difference in every student’s life. I have over six years of experience in corporate training, consumer sales, and delivering high quality service. I have developed and been the leader of numerous customer initiative programs. After the birth of my son I took time off from the corporate world to dedicate all my time t

As I suffered through my younger years with Attention Deficit Disorder, I feel that it is extremely important to appeal to almost all of the senses when teaching. As for myself, I am definitely a visual learner, so I feel that visual aids are important. I am a big fan of hand outs in full color. You will often find me drawing a picture on the board. I feel it is important to hear it and see it, and if you can, touch it. Another important teaching style I implement, is watching my students and making sure they know how to do it. Going around and walking each student through the process and asking them to do what I did really confirms that the student understands what I have taught them. As a former computer instructor, I can't tell you how much I miss teaching. Teaching was the one career in my life where I felt completely fulfilled. I truly love sharing my knowledge and being abl
