I consider myself more of a facilitator than a dictator but I do expect my students to show initiative. My goal is for every student to succeed. I have historically been a sketch artist. This talent led to me into graphic design for advertising. I later majored in advertising and worked several internships and practicums with a variety of ad agencies and publication, including Southern Living. Over half of my 24-year is comprised of creative management positions. Recently, I decided to get back into higher education to earn my Masters degree in graphic design.

Discovery with emphasis on individual learning style - for instance tactical or visual instead of instructional - also have worked with kids who have emotional issues or self image issues that hold them back from learning - interested in working with kids who are in need of a someone who sees them as an individual Have worked with elementary age children and have tutored/mentored in the workplace. With many years of work experience with employees of varying skill levels, I understand what it takes to be a valued contributor and understand that students learn in very different ways. Creating a relationship with information that is meaningful to the student is the best way to help them learn a concept or process. Most learning focuses on information assimilation while I focus on applying the concept or process to a real work situation that has meaning to the student.

I love teaching and showing people how easy accounting can be and how much it helps you in real life situations. Most students get overwhelmed easily with double entry accrual accounting. I find it best to relate the material directly to the students personal life purchase and income habits. This way they can have a hands on approach and hopefully find the rules easy and helpful in daily financial situations. As a staff accountant for a large, global corporation (sales revenue approx. $250 million/yr) I have very much experience in all areas of finance and accounting. I specialize in journal entry writing and reconciliations. I reconcile both bank account statements and account balances with my master bank reconciliation having approximately $40 million debits and credits monthly.

I began 'teaching' as the head wakeboarding instructor at Coble Ski School in Lillington, NC, when I was a junior in high school. Shortly thereafter I took a position working at a beach resort in Pensacola, FL, where I spent an entire summer instructing surfing, kayaking and sailing. At Duke I tutored during each of my four years, either biweekly at a local Durham elementary school or at the Emily K Family Life Center. It is there where I tutored once weekly as a senior, up until I graduated in May. I have tutored in all subjects and all ages up through 22. When I approach a student I've never worked with, my first priority is to make them feel comfortable by letting them see that I am a very nice, friendly, and compassionate person that they might like to have as a friend. Next I try to get them to tell me about themselves in some way (what they've been working on, their favorite

For my first experience in teaching, I worked with both high school and elementary school students who were learning disabled and in need of help. I used the Orton-Gillingham method for dyslexia and found that it really seemed to work well to suit the student’s needs. From there I went on to work two years in resource rooms working with middle school and high school students in a one-on-one and group setting for intense tutoring. I am now working as an elementary school teacher and I miss being able to focus on giving my full attention to students one-on-one. My teaching style is adapted to meet the student’s needs. I firmly believe that each child learns differently. I think students either learn kinesthetically, visually, or auditorally, for the most part. I think it is my job as a teacher to find out which style best suits the student and adapt my style accordingly. I also think that

I really enjoy teaching students accounting. I believe that it is very important to learn the basic skills in accounting, as it can be used in everyday life. I try to teach by using real life examples so that the student can develop a better understanding of how to apply this knowledge to everyday life. I am very patient and easy going. While completing my master’s degree in accounting, I tutored undergraduate students in introductory level accounting classes and college algebra (part-time) for two years. I have recently applied for and been granted a Preparer Tax ID number (PTIN) by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). I recently left my job at PricewaterhouseCoopers as a senior associate, after working there for three and one-half years in public accounting. Currently, I work in Financial Reporting at a large public company, where my main duties are to prepare and distribute our q

Depending upon the prescribed materials used by the school or tutoring company, I have a student centered approach to teaching. I find which approach motivates an individual student; listening, reading, writing, speaking and ensure that that method is incorporated in to my lessons. I have also found that elementary age children often need to move around if I tutor them at the end of the day. I have a sense of humor, maintain classroom organization and enjoy knowing my students. The last day is a joy for them but always includes moment of nostalgia for me. Teaching is my second career after twenty years in executive level business. I have taught in elementary, middle and high schools. I have also taught adults with and without formal education. I've taught in the USA, South America and lived in Europe. I have a specialization in ESL but have also taught math to younger students.

As a Physical Education and Health Education teacher, I have come to appreciate that all children operate in various ways. Some pick up on material sooner than others, while there are still those who are in need of support. In my tutoring experience, which has been a very positive experience, I have created various learning tools so that my students may achieve their maximum potential. Prior to settling into a Phys. Ed. career, I was also an English major who happens to have a deep appreciation for the written word in composition form. I have also, as a tutor, had access to several different subjects in which I have become proficient. Some of these include math, English, history, and the sciences. As an educator, I am not primarily concerned with what skill level one may be at at one particular time or another. What concerns me most is the student's willingness to try and I feel th

As a graduate of NYU's School of Education, with a degree in Communications and a 3.5 GPA, I have served in both a formal and informal capacity as a teacher and tutor in subjects including Mathematics, English (grammar and composition), and health education. While serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in Zambia, I formally worked as a teacher in several elementary schools. Subject areas included farming and agriculture, English language instruction, and mathematics. Additionally, I have worked informally with numerous friends and family members to aid in their studies and work in math, essay composition, business, and technology. I am currently pursuing a Master of Accounting degree at UNC Chapel Hill, and am comfortable teaching areas of study involving this discipline. Finally, I recently completed the GMAT examination with a combined math and verbal score of 700, and the highest possible

A patient and caring tutor, I have worked with students of all ages and levels of ability. What I love most about tutoring is helping people grow and discover their maximum ability. I think that you or your child will enjoy the time we spend together. Learning is what life is all about, and I try to make that a fun experience, even if it's a subject that the student may not particularly like. My areas of expertise are English Composition, marketing and theater. I am also certified to teach English as a Second Language and have additional experience working with individuals with special needs.

As a second career I wanted to put something back into my community. So as I went back to school a few years ago to complete my MBA, I thought that I wanted to teach in public schools. I was a non-traditional teacher. I therefore had to work as a substitute teacher and as a tutor because I am not yet certified. So I worked as Coach(Academic K-12)and I enjoy it. As soon as I can I will get certified, but tutoring is a wonderful way to learn how to teach and interact. Because I am a Business major, I tend to like to work with only numbers. But my tutoring career began with kids that were below grade level in reading. So I used my business mindset to give my young clients(students) stories that were of interest to them and I made sure that the stories were easy reading and I gradually got the kids to read "at grade level". My style is to empower the kids to make them feel as if they can do

I like to get to know the child and form a friendship with him or her. Once we develop a rapport it is easier for them to open up to me. When the comfort level is established we then develop a mutual-learning relationship, as I can learn from the student just as much as he or she can learn from me. I have tutored throughout school and into college. During college, I mentored and tutored two young girls from an under-privileged school for a local program. After college, I did some private consulting, helping people write admissions essays and prepare for the ACT and other standardized tests. I've also worked as a Google Answers Researcher and as a grants adviser to nonprofit foundations.
