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

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 something is what it is "just because." 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 ma

I am a career educator who has taught English and other Humanities based courses extensively since 1988. My primary experience is on the college and university level but I also have a high school and middle school background. The educational and pedagogical philosophy I hold is this: The ability to communicate effectively remains the most vital of skills and is crucial to academic and career advancement. It is with a sense of privilege and honor I teach and with a sense of urgency as communication skills continue to evolve in a quickly changing world. Technology is not a substitute for literacy. It is there as a vital augmentation of learning. Critical thinking is nourished so well-considered and studied opinions are more than welcome; they are essential. Students have conveyed to me that my style is one of "relaxed intensity" with a flair for the dramatic laced with a sense of hum

Although new to tutoring, I have worked with children extensively and participated in peer tutoring throughout middle school and high school. I have an excellent rapport with children and young adults and my knowledge is not limited to the area of foods and nutrition.

I believe that it is my responsibility to cater and adjust my style to that which works best for the student with whom I am working. In a classroom setting this can be especially difficult, but with tutoring it is much more do-able. I have a lot of training as a Results Coach, which stresses working with the strenghths your client provides you. The exact same process applies towards my students. My experiences as an educator encompass a fairly wide circle. I have a good amount of knowledge and experience in both athletics and academics. I have coached, taught and tutored students for nearly seventeen years. As an English teacher I have the ability to teach and tutor all aspects of reading and writing skills. I also have worked with students on test taking (primarily the SAT's), study skills, organization, and various other pertinent skills.

My teaching style is very hands on. I try to make skills applicable to student's lives, which helps them internalize the information. I am also very organized--I expect my students to maintain a help notebook to assist with the various steps to problems. I like to push my students to excel and really understand the math, not just "do" the math. As a person with an inquiring mind, I have spend many years learning how students learn. I taught math at the high school level for five years in Florida, as well as one year in North Carolina. In addition, I have taught students with severe disabilites, and students in all subjects at the elementary level. Always interesting in continuing to learn, I have attended numerous workshops on how students learn. In addition, I was a contributing author to the Algebra Project with the University of Central Florida from 2000-2003. At this point in

I am passionate about students. I am fun, joyful, and patient, but I can also challenge students without discouraging them. Every student has the capacity for excellence and potential to love learning. Students need to see learning as an adventure, and I want to help facilitate that journey. The key to quality instruction is meeting every student where he or she is and discovering his or her specific learning style. Students learn best by doing and making academic content personal to them, so I seek to utilize constructivist approaches to learning and encourage students to love the process. Education is a necessary key to success, and instruction can make every difference. I have a specific passion for middle school Language Arts. I am a highly motivated individual, and I sought an education from one of the highest quality elementary education programs in the country. I am a recen
