I love to work with students of all ages. I am a patient teacher and try to tailor my teaching style to the progress of my student. I prefer to promote understanding through the use of work sheets, tutorials, and real world examples, rather then simply relying on memorization. I have a good sense of humor and believe that constructive learning environments are both challenging and light-hearted. I studied creative writing at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities in Greenville SC. There I studied poetry, play writing, grammar, editing, fiction, and creative nonfiction. I won two national scholastic writing awards for my writing. I also studied at Rice University which is a highly selective university in Houston Texas. I majored in sociology and also took many intensive English classes. While a student at Rice, I tutored several of my peers in both sociology and english. I

I enjoy working with children of all ages, backgrounds, and learning abilities. As a recent college graduate, I am a great communicator in addition to being able to relate to being put in the student situation. Everyone perceives the world through the five senses. However, different people rely on each of the senses to varying degrees. The information that I present to the student is structured in a way in which one can absorb it well. The first issue that I address is if the student is engaged in the lesson that is being reinforced. I also, ensure that the style of teaching being delivered is appropriate for that student to achieve lesson objectives. To ensure comprehension, I stop regularly to check student engagement. I believe recalling information is a prerequisite for developing higher order thinking skills. I make an effort to ensure the lesson and understand each one of my studen

I like to observe children to determine what learning styles best fit their personalities and strengths. I believe in the capabilities of all children, when their teachers find the proper ways to motivate and support their learning. I find that building a trusting relationship in which students feel comfortable asking questions and thinking critically are best for making gains. I have been a classroom teacher for the past four years in both elementary and middle school. Both of my parents are educators, so I spent a great deal of time tutoring and volunteering in schools prior to my teaching career. I also have a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Florida Atlantic University. My strengths are in the areas of language arts, reading, and social sciences.

Teaching requires innovative approaches and techniques to deliver relevant information and learning skills to students. Learning begins when students are provided tangible information and useful applications that relates to the desired learning outcome. My goal as a teacher is to use effective teaching practices, provide positive classroom experiences and continually evolve my teaching through reflective practices. As a teacher my mission is to develop competency, inspire the passion for life-long learning and develop critical thinking skills. This is accomplished by creating an enthusiastic atmosphere while addressing students' educational needs. Being an outstanding educator has been a goal of mine for nearly a decade. I have earned a bachelor's degree in history, which has allowed me to be proficient in American, African, Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian History. In addition;

I enjoy knowing that I can have such a great influence in a child’s future. Being able to work with children and help them achieve that A in that classroom that they may have never thought they could get, can be the difference between a child going to college or not. I know that all children have what it takes to go above and beyond and with the right patience and guidance they can do the unthinkable. I was an Elementary Education major for a year and a half of the time that I spent in college and even though I changed my major to Journalism and Mass Communications, I have found myself coming back to where I started. I enjoy knowing that if given this opportunity that I can reach out to so many children by helping them succeed in the classroom.I have recently started tutoring a co-workers son and I really like the growth that I see in his school work and the progress that I have been abl

I am hands-on and usually try to relate the material to the students in fun/meaning ways. I feel that education is key to a successful working career. If students need help with a subject, then I am more than willing to help - either through students seeking me out or analyzing their work for areas that need additional attention. I have served moderate and low income students through AmeriCorps. My duties included running the after-school program in addition to helping student with their homework. I have also managed a multi-state campaign, and served as Vice President of an organization representing nearly 10,000 graduate/professional students.

I am a disciplinarian. I have an excellent ability to gain a students attention, keep it and the results of my students have been well above average. I have a knack to bring into the classroom, outside events (latest ball games, Olympics, etc.) to establish a 'bond' between myself and the student. This allows me to gain their confidence as well as not create a bored atmosphere. I find this very important, especially with the more difficult students. As seen from above, I have valid tutoring experience in both middle grades and HS. I was in the student teaching program at Wake Forest and upon graduation, I was a substitute teacher in the Winston-Salem, Forsyth County School system. I also participated in the Junior Achievement program in the Piedmont NC region for over 5 years. I am currently a tutor with the "No Child Left Behind Program."

As a first generation college student, I know the importance and significance education plays in one's life. I just recently earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, which has allowed me to utilize those skills and apply them to real-world problems. I am currently pursuing my masters of science in Computer Science as well. Through many research papers and oral presentation and extensive exams, I know that I am capable of assisting any student with their written and oral skills. In the past, I have tutored in the areas of mathematics and history. It is my pleasure to be of assistance to any student in any subject matter. I love being able to help others in subjects where they are weak. I have a pretty flexible and open schedule and I am readily available to assist your child. I am very understanding, easy to get along with, and persistent when it comes to working with stu
