Testing Skills Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Matthews, NC

I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math. I love teaching others and helping them to understand concepts that they previously were struggling with. I am very patient and will work my hardest to make sure those I tutor succeed in school. I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying

I help guide the student along, having them discover much of the information in a trial and error fashion. I tend to use the questions they are struggling with the most, making similar examples, then walking them through these problems and breaking down the problems until the student understands the how the process works. I have been tutoring for over seven years, starting with my peers in tenth grade. I have tutored a wide range of subjects, from Geometry through Calculus III, from general computer knowledge through utilizing the advanced functions of Microsoft Access. I have tutored people ranging from my peers to people three times my age, to as young as third graders. My motto has evolved into "Helping those who feel they can not be helped"

I love all children and love watching them learn. It's amazing to watch a child's face light up when he or she grasps a new concept or to watch a child immerse himself in a topic he or she loves. I am outgoing, patient, and creative. All children have the ability to learn, but all children learn differently. Hands-on learning is an approach I often take. With encouraging words, consistency, patience, and hard work, my students succeed. I love to learn which is why I thrive in a classroom. After receiving my BA in English, I taught language arts to eighth graders for five years. I obtained my Master's in Education after just two years in the classroom.
