I am an experienced teaching professional and accomplished published writer. Seeking a position in Higher Education that will allow me to apply my writing skills, experience, and strong educational foundation in order to motivate students to achieve academic excellence. I earned a teaching certification from North Carolina in Spanish K-12.. I was an educator for 7 years. I have taught in the private sector for 3 years at St. Raphael's Catholic School, I also taught Spanish at Wake Field Elementary and East Millbrook Middle.

My comments on tutoring English : Because excellent English has been a lifelong goal, I have attained a high level of excellence in logical writing (e.g., Proposal preparation), Poetry Creation, Phrase Mastery (per se), Word Mastery (the 5300 "Mainspring" words in the English Language) and Public Speaking Speech Preparation. As an example,I was invited to address an assembly of graduate students (many Fields and Levels of graduate degrees) at Clayton University. I prepared the speech and delivered it at the graduation ceremony in 1983.

Soar to Success w/ an Experienced NC & NB Certified Teacher

I began teaching in 1976 in Tarboro, NC. My first teaching experience was in the middle school, grade 8. After that year, I taught fourth grade for 6 years.

The rest of my career was teaching Title 1 and ALP II in Wake County, and over 7 years grades 1 to 5, all content areas, in Durham County.

English is one of my top subjects!

I am compassionate, enthusiastic, and highly experienced! I possess a professional degree with certifications, and have had over 7 years of experience working with students that have special needs. I serve kindergarten through adult. With my background in Education and my specialization in Special Education, I have worked with numerous children AND adults that have experienced academic frustration.
I understand the differences in learning styles and take the time to understand your unique needs. I do not prescribe just one method to teach you; I have the experience to synthesize different methods to create a unique plan for you or your child. I combine tactile, auditory, and visual modalities to create a holistic approach that is tailored to your specific needs. I use multi-sensory instruction in everything.

More About This Tutor...

I 19 and have an Associate in Science and an Associate in Arts. I have been taking college classes since I was a Jr in High School , and I have been tutoring my friends and younger relatives since the 6th grade. I have tutored subjects ranging from linear algebra to college calculus. I have never done formal tutoring ,and I think the most I have ever been paid for my tutoring services was a meal at cookout.
I am very patient and don't mind reviewing the same material until a student has mastered it. I like to set goals and am very encouraging.

I love when I can help others!

My teaching style is more hands on because that's how I learned fastest when I was in school.
I am going to school to become a teacher in the grades of kindergarten through 5th, I have been a nanny for several people and have enjoyed it completely! During my nanny duties, I would of course have a home-schooling section and would also help around the house when needed, so I think that I am a very good candidate for teaching basics and other subjects to help kids better themselves and their studies!

Making Learning Fun and Easy!

I have a bachelors degree in Economics with a concentration in mathematics. I have been tutoring all of my life. I've tutored children, college students, and adults. I've tutored mathematics, grammar, reading, writing, and the military entrance exam. I tutor all levels of mathematics up through Calculus. I would love to help you learn and understand at your own pace.
My teaching style is to move at the students pace - however slowly or quickly that may be. I don't mind being asked the same questions. In fact, I believe that there is no such thing as a bad question, and that a student should ask a question as many times as s/he feels it is necessary to do so.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have participated in many study groups where I actively contribute information on the topic of interest; there we help each other and teach each other. Also, I'm the oldest sibling of four, I have had many years of helping out with homework and tutoring in reading, writing and math. My education consisted of diverse studies and I learned a great deal of mathematics and sciences. Also, naturally I use proper grammar and have a good hand for writing. I am a very creative person and can come up with unique topics. I'm also very artsy and appreciate a good hands on experiment.

K-12 (+ some college) Math and English Tutor

I'm permanently a student. Before I joined the Air Force, while in the Air Force, and after I separated I've been school. Coincidentally, I separated to take the opportunity to go back to school. Currently, I'm studying engineering in North Carolina at UNCA and planning to transfer to the University of Colorado premiere engineering school. I know the process of getting into the Air Force (at least the top jobs) and being a college student particularly an engineering student. I've had courses in all major classes of math before Calculus, scored above a 600 on the SAT math portion, and have earned A's in my initial Pre-calculus classes. I also write college personal statements and college reports on major subjects expected in general humanities courses.
FIrst I figure out what the problem is student's approach to answering a question or studying a concept. I look to see what they kno ... read more
