My comments on tutoring Composition : I am a graduate of Tuskegee University with a Bachelor's Degree in English. I also have special training in creative and script writing also.

Standard- I prefer to get to know the student and what helps them learn the best and continue our learning process from that point forward.
My tutoring experience started in high school as an Advanced English student taking Honors English where we helped our peers taking standard English 12. I continued my tutoring experience throughout college at Tuskegee University where I tutored various students in the community and at the local YMCA in English.

Your ESL, Spanish, French, Korean learning system /16 yr exp

Q: We've been studying Spanish/French at home for the past year. Would we really benefit that much more from a class environment? A: Absolutely! Language cannot be truly learned in a vacuum. Language is dynamic, and so should be learned and practiced continuously in an interactive environment. Most people say their main goal in learning a foreign language is to be able to speak it. That is why we use the power of the internet, weekly phone conversation practice, and in-class discussions to constantly improve our students' ear for the language, pronunciation, listening, and speaking abilities. Grammar is also taught in a complementary fashion to the English grammar learned in other classes. So, students benefit from a greater understanding of their first language in the process of learning a second. Without real-time interaction with fellow learners, speaking correction, p ... read more

Retired Georgia Certified (No.149179) Teacher

My former students described me as laid back, determined and persistent.
I have 30 years of classroom teaching experience 10 of them in special needs instruction. I have experience in Pre Kindergarten through 10th-grade levels. I have worked in public and private schools. I did not have a preference for one or the other. Children are mostly uninformed and young people are beginning to experience life. Some need a little more help than others on the road to success.

I like to make sure the student is enjoying the learning process. Without the enjoyment the information is less likely to stick.

I am certified in Special Education, Reading, Social Studies, Language Arts, and Business Education. I have been at the same middle school for 9 years.

I am a fall graduate from Troy University and will be graduating with honors. I am currently a peer tutor at Troy in biology and math (algebra). I have tutored privately before in high school math (algebra and geometry. I graduated 9th in my high school with honors earning an advanced diploma with an honor's seal. I love school and love to learn. I will be enrolled in Amridge University in January to pursue my master's degree.
I love to learn and help others to learn. Different people learn differently; therefore, I present material in a number of ways until I discover how the tutee learns. With that information and plenty of patience everyone learns their own way and at their own speed. My goal is to not only help students improve their grades but to also learn the material.

My teaching style follows my personality. I am a hard worker, therefore I expect hard work in return from my students. I have always been described as one who explains concepts in a manner that is easy to understand, and I feel that this is a result of utilizing the "common sense" approach to problem solving. Being from the Union Springs area, I am very interested in helping the local children succeed in school and be positive contributors to their environment.
As a graduate student at the University of Alabama I instructed 3 college level physical geography laboratory sections per semester. This experience sharpened my communication skills and provided a valuable new perspective on the learning process. I was also employed as a tutor for the University's Athletic Department.

I start by asking the students to tell me exactly what is it that they not understand and start from there. I then like to work backwards from that point to find where they got lost. I also use everyday concepts to give similiar scenarios to get them on the right track. I find pleasure in seeing their faces light up once they come to understand the subject matter.
I enjoy teaching and working in the clinical practice performing laboratory tests and analyzing the results. I am enthralled with structures and functions of organisms and continuously intrigued with revelations of newly discovered mechanisms. I find gratification in getting a student to understand a concept being taught and in their expression of the lesson learned. My teaching experiences were acquired while obtaining my Bachelors of Science degree in Biological Sciences with a minor in Chemistry and during graduate lev ... read more

As a college student I am still striving for my goal and dream of becoming a veterinarian. I have always been a mentor in my community and willing to help others where they need help. My favorite subjects throughout grade school include math and science, in which I have excelled in both by being placed in honor level classes throughout high school. I have tutored many students in math, science and elementary level reading.
My teaching style with younger children is to have a relaxed setting where no pressure in placed upon the student. I'm always sure to review my material before going into a new lecture. When a student is not understanding the material I try to use many methods for then to gain a better understanding. When I was younger it was easier for me to understand information if I can relate it to my life, so I will apply the same methods with teaching others.

I believe all children learn in different ways and it is our responsibility as teachers to accomodate to those different needs. If I am excited then the students will be excited. I have learned to consider myself as an educator and not simply a teacher. The term is broader and it allows my mind to grasp the importance of my career path that I have chosen. Every child deserves to learn. It doesn't matter how, but as long as they learn and are able to succeed in life, then I will consider my job successful as an educator.
From a very early age, I have always wanted to teach. I love the way a student lights up when everything connects and they finally understand the topics. I earned my BA in Secondary English Education and my Student teaching semester was extremely rewarding. My cooperating teacher allowed me to teach half days in January and then full days starting in February. We we ... read more

As a business degree graduate, I am highly trained to communicate in all levels. My skills in writing, communicating, educating in fields like history, and reading are extraordinary. My extensive grammatical skills in writing are a plus as I took a special credit course in my Bachelors degree. Since my Masters degree is business related, I am excellent in understanding concepts before teaching it. I can gather relevant material and break it down for easy understanding. I have tutored several kids in English, history, sciences, business communication etc.
