Everyone is able to Learn!

I have worked in the field of Education for the last 17 years; I made a career change to the field of education after working with a special needs employee in my previous career/job. The majority of this time has been spent working in various positions in the field of Special Education. In my years of experience, I have taught Kindergarten thru 12th grade, as well as at the DPS Transition Center (age 26). I am certified in both Michigan and Georgia. Presently, I live and work in Georgia during the school year, but I spend my summers in the metro Detroit area.
I have an open, fun and 'hands-on' technology infused teaching style where I maintain control of the environment and behaviors.

Student at Wellesley College

I taught English to low income Brazilian students in Sao Paulo Brazil's largest favela for 4 years in high school. Now, as a student at the accredited Wellesley College, I tutor young elementary aged pupils in reading and math. I received an International Baccalaureate Diploma in high school specializing in Biology, Mathematics, Visual Art, Critical Interpretation (English), and History. I also completed standard level Portuguese (as a fluent/native speaker). Prior to my tutoring and teaching experiences, I was also a babysitter for my neighborhood starting from the age of 10. I have taken babysitting classes during the summer, and from that have become certified by the American Red Cross. In addition to these formal opportunities, I have extensive experience volunteering for organizations such as the YMCA (teaching soccer camps and participating in the feeding programs), and Habitat for ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an 8th grade student, which is great because I can connect to other students. I have been tutoring children below the age of 13 for 2 years. I have never tutored online, but I have tutored in person for up to 4 hours a week. I am very organized, as I like to plan my lessons ahead of time. I am persistent and will work with you at your own pace.

A Little Bit About Me...

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents.
For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of business from the University of California, Merced, I have a great deal of experience with language and essay writing. I studied English literature, writing composition, as well as reading comprehension and language. Writing is a large passion of mine which is why I love to teach writing tools to help compose essays for English, History, Psychology, Art and even Sciences.
The key to great teaching is knowing your students. If each student gets the appropriate attention, it is easy to discover the teaching technique that works best for them. I know each student can find their best work, they just need a little help. Being patient, caring and easy to talk you are three of my most prevalent skills that help me to reach each child and educate them to the best of their talents.

More About This Tutor...

As an experienced tutor and trainer, I have been exposed to several learning styles and have adapted my instructional techniques to optimize the potential of the learner’s experience. Consequently, the most effective tutoring style has been of the multiple intelligence nature. It takes into consideration that every learner is not the same and a “cookie cutter” solution cannot address the challenges of every student. Therefore, I have adopted an instructional style that collaborates with the learner and is learner focused allowing for the learner to become empowered.
I have been in the Financial Accounting, Information Systems and Business Administration arena for over 15 years of which training has served as the catalyst for my passion as an educator. I have since pursued my master’s degree in education and plan to become an instructor on a full time basis. In addition, the scope ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible for anyone to learn; some people just have to take a different approach to get to their objective. I love the entire learning and teaching process, and I am pretty fond of people as well!
I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. ... read more

I am a recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in TESOL. While a senior in college, I taught an intermediate ESL class for a semester and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also minored in Business/Office Administration and took specialized classes in Windows Vista and Microsoft Office programs. In addition, I have taught beginner and intermediate private piano lessons for two years. I also acquired some experience with special needs when I worked after school as a personal aide to a non-verbal teenage girl with severe autism.
I have taught a variety of skills and ages, from 1st graders in piano lessons to elderly adult immigrants learning the English language. I have a desire to meet people on their level and encourage them grow. I strive for an atmosphere that is both positive and structured that is a help to both my students and their parents.

Reflective of my disposition, immediately in order to establish a conducive learning environment in which the student feels comfortable, I try to employ a mellow, patient, open-minded and light-hearted atmosphere. I very much enjoy teaching, and try to make it so my student(s) enjoys learning. I was once asked by a student, "Are you a Biology teacher?" I replied, "No, just a student." She replied, "You should be." Generally I review and outline the material before-hand. During the session I welcome questions, and offer explanations relating direct facts, my own take on the subject/idea, diagrams, and even relevant fun stories to help them remember the fact/idea.
As a University of West Georgia Biology Workshop Leader I was responsible for checking pre-workshop practice problems, working through workshop problems with the students, administering tests, grading the said tests, keep ... read more

As an Ivy League graduate, I pursued what I felt would lead me to a fullfilling career in Finance. After a few years I was lead to do what I loved and had a passion for, to teach, educate, empower and support children and families. I later started my own-non profit to educate underprivileged youth. My skills and proven ability to work with children and families have allowed me to develop and grow in many arenas to further advance the purpose of education. During the last three years I have tutored in math and english. I taught third grade reading for two years.
I am a firm believer that all children are capable of learning they just learn in different ways. My approach for teaching is more student-centered approach. I believe that if you do not understand the students learning style, you will not be successful in motivating learning. I have a high tolerance for children and adaptin ... read more

Being a father to a 13 year old son, and having close friends with school age children, I have been able to teach some of my ways of doing math in subjects from simple math to algebra to geometry. I believe that there are more ways than one to complete and understand a math problem, and that if done correctly and it is easier to learn and remember, then that may be the way that student better understands that procedure.
As an accounting graduate and a college football player, I learned to have a good sense on how to study and hard work, both on and off the field. I had a great love for math throughout my schooling career and decided to go into accounting due to this. Even with a hectic schedule with football in college, I was still able to graduate exactly 2 weeks before 4 years with enough credits to be close to a finance degree as well. I took some graduate classes for my las ... read more
