I have been a graphic designer for over 15 years so I am very familiar with the Adobe programs, Indesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. I keep up with the trends and continuously teach myself new "tricks" of the trade. I create an environment where you feel comfortable to ask questions. I make sure you understand all of the steps that you are trying to accomplish and also provide feedback and handouts when needed. Very detailed instruction. Many people that work in the design business learn by hands on or being shown the steps of how to get where you want to be. I will help you until you get the correct steps.

I have always had a desire to teach and be involved in education. After earning a degree in Broadcasting, I decided to change fields and get into teaching. I earned a CELTA (Certificate in English Teaching to Adults) from Cambridge University in 1999. Upon receiving that certificate I immediately began teaching English to adults. I first worked in an on-site language school environment and then later in a more freelance, corporate environment. After teaching adults for a few years I then began tutoring students in English conversation, grammar, written comprehension and expression and pronunciation. I love working with children and young adults. My challenge as a tutor is to take something that is difficult and make it fun and understandable. Too often students look at teachers or adults as enemies, and I try to take a very laid-back, conversational approach when tutoring. Obviou

I have seven years of teaching experience, five of those in Texas and two in South Carolina. I also have three years of substitute teaching experience. I have taught 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grades, and I have substitute taught all elementary grades and some middle and high school grades. I am strong in both mathematics and language arts. I enjoy working with children and have wanted to be a teacher since I was in the fourth grade. My favorite part about teaching is when I see the "light bulb" go on in a child's mind and there is excitement about learning. I think every child can learn and that children need structure and guidance in the learning process. I also believe that children can do more than what we often think they can so they need to be encouraged to stretch their thinking, to use their imaginations, and to not give up when something is difficult or challenging.

My teaching style I would describe two-fold: First, my military background taught me their three step process; tell them what you are going to tell them, tell them, and then tell them what you told them and my own personal style which is a hybrid of the discovery method and guided question and answer. I have always been a firm believer in that there are no dumb or silly questions. If a child or an adult has a question, there is a reason for that question and it deserves the best answer possible. Some questions will be easily answered and some will require work, possibly on both parts, and that it why it’s called the learning process. I have a BA in English from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and graduated in 1986. I am also a former officer in the North Carolina Army National Guard. For the last 12 years I have been in the business world, and that is where I have us

I love learning and the precision arts such as mathematics. This has driven me to begin in a computer career. I spent almost two decades applying my computer skills. Learning has never stopped for me. But then I love the outdoors and working with my hands. I have taught myself the carpentry trade and the concrete business. I started out by sitting down with the manuals and memorized the building codes before I built my own house. Recently I applied mathematics to a roof I was building. Simple, yes, but not everyone would take the time to lay it out on paper and get accurate measurements. I hope one day that I will be able to combine mathematics with real life applications as I home school my own son. What I have discovered about myself is that I learn differently from other people. I am the kind of person who prefers to set aside that assembly instruction manual and put to

As a Financial Analyst with 15 years of experience, I've worked in many different industries and have gained an in-depth knowledge of Finance and Accounting. In addition, as a Sr. Financial Analyst I've been required to communicate with all levels of Sr. Management. As a manager, I've also trained new employees in many of the positions I've held. Since I have always found personal satisfaction in helping others achieve success, I am considering a career change to teaching and I'm hoping this will be an opportunity to see firsthand if this is the next career for me. I am very positive and motivated. Realizing that everyone does not learn in the same way I believe in tailoring learning to the individual. Some are visual learners while others may need to have something explained to them with several different examples based on their individual needs. I believe learning, while requirin

As of June, 2007, I retired with 30 years experience as a public educator. After earning a BS in Communication Education and Biology, the next sixteen years, I served the state of South Carolina as a coordinator of natural resource education for public and private schools activities and programs to supplement their existing curricula. Since, February, 1997, I served Spartanburg School Dist. Five as a middle school classroom teacher of life and earth science. During my tenure, my students consistently met basic standards for 7th & 8th grade science as required by the S.C. Dept. of Education. Over 80% of my students attained proficient or advanced standing in science as measured by the end-of-year state standards testing program. My role in the process of education is to guide students through a systematic methodology designed to create awareness, increase knowledge, and develop skills

I graduated from Clemson University in 2005 with a BA in Early Childhood Education. After my first year of teaching I began earning my Masters in Education from Southern Wesleyan University. I just finished in December 2007! I have been a kindergarten teacher for the past two and a half years in Laurens District 55. Currently I am teaching 4K at a HeadStart school in Greenville County. During the past few years I have taken the time to further my education by participating in classes that will help me be a better teacher and reach children of all learning styles. I love to teach and work with young children. I believe that all children are eager to please us, we just have to be available to hear them. All children are different. We don't expect them to be carbon copies of one another, so why should we expect them to learn the same way? I feel that it is my job, my mission in lif

I have earned two bachelor degrees, one in Information Systems and Business Processes and the other in Communications and Media. I believe that education is very important and am now continuing my education, I plan to receive my Masters in Higher Education in May 2012. I have worked as a counselor at a young female enrichment program for the last two years, and enjoyed tutoring in Math, Science, Digital Arts and would love to tutor in other subjects if needed. I have worked at summer camps for children ages 8-16 throughout my entire life, and love making a difference in a child's life. I am very patient and have a positive attitude. I believe that students learn in different ways, and it is our job as educators to help enrich them for the future. When given the proper instructions and guidance I firmly believe that any child can succeed if just one person believes in them. I believe

I believe everyone can do mathematics. It just has to be explained to the student in a way so that he can relate to it. I believe in presenting the material in several different ways so that it can be understood. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with other people and would like to help your child excel in math and science. I do not have current experience teaching or tutoring for pay. I did some tutoring of high school students and fellow classmates while I was in college. Since then, I have been the "go-to" person in my family for help with math and science. I tutored one of my sisters in her classes at St Charles Community College. She graduated with an Associates degree in AutoCAD last year. I helped her with all her cad, math, physics, and engineering classes. From 2002 thru 2008, I tutored one of my nieces through her junior high and high school math and science classes.

I have to utilize various levels of math everyday to be successful, through this employment and working in banking and as a treasurer for a church, I believe my expertise will help me be a great tutor for you and your student. As an adult graduate of a local university, I believe that everyone has their own learning style. Not every teacher recognizes that students learn differently, and I have been successful helping others with hands-on, re-teaching, and verbal skills. Sometimes it helps to just review information, but in the end doing my best to help the student learn.
