A Little Bit About Me...

I have 28 years of teaching experience and 10 years of work in businesses. Combining the two areas enables me to relate concrete examples for my students. Since retiring I have had some experience tutoring a Filipino gal who was anxious to get into the School of Nursing at Kennesaw College as well as with a student trying to pass the ASVAP to enter the military.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College. More info will follow later.
To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test prep teacher, I have a close knowledge of students' approach to graduate school, and the process of improving their chances of acceptance to schools of choice. I am academically qualified and more especially interested in teaching humanities courses.
The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from wit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe every student has the ability to learn any subject matter, however difficult it may seem. Effective instruction is strongly linked to effective communication of material, in a way that each student can understand personally. I strongly believe that every student achieves their best when they feel comfortable with their instructor and as a member of a problem-solving team. I will work hard with each student to communicate important points in a way that not only seems comprehensible, but also inspires interest. My goal is to work with each student as a student myself, discovering how they learn best and how best to use our time.
I have worked as a math and physics tutor for several years at the high school and undergraduate university levels. My past experience has been primarily in introductory physics courses and upper-level high school math including trigonometry and cal ... read more

The most important things in achieving academic success are the establishment of goals and discipline in achieving those goals. I help students to become involved in their own educational experiences by exploring different teaching and learning methods that best fit the student's needs and personality, creating their own goals over a period of time so that they can keep track of their own progress and by providing students with patience and encouragement so that they remain focused in achieving their own personal goals. I also push students to think outside of the box and challenge themselves rather than limiting themselves only to standards of their age or grade- appropriate level.
I have acquired a wide range of skills through my experiences in teaching and tutoring. For four years I worked with a dyslexic child to improve his reading skills. I used a variety of approaches in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I'm a recent college graduate, soon entering into a Secondary English education program. I have extensive experience with academic writing and research during my undergraduate career. I have engaged in informal tutoring with my peers and have gained excellent writing skills in particular. I am particularly skilled with one-on-one communication and will be developing my teaching skills this coming year through the MAT program at Agnes Scott.
I concentrate on each student's unique strengths (as opposed to weaknesses only) in order help students their own skills. Students must feel personally invested in their education, and I hope to be able to instill that in all students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that teaching needs to be fun and engaging for students. If they can touch and experience what they are learning, they are much more likely to remember the key concepts they are being taught. Students also need to be shown how what they are teaching relates to the real world. All of this can be accomplished using research based methods that are proven to be effective in teaching students of all ability levels. All students can be successful in their learning, but each student is unique in how they will be successful. When they are taught using their primary learning style, then the learning process becomes easier for them. As a teacher it is my job to teach students how to be successful both in the classroom and outside.

A Little Bit About Me...

Even before graduating from high school I began tutoring kids younger than I. I love children & I value education, therefore I figured if I have a little knowledge or if I can help someone understand something better, I might as well try. During & after graduation from college I was a Teacher's assistant as well as a tutor. I have my bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice, which required the reading of numerous books, writing many papers, & passing many math/statistics classes. I have been teaching and tutoring for 5 years.
I love children & teaching. Where there is a will there is a way for all children to learn. My motto is "The more you learn the more you know, the more you know the further you go," and I firmly believe in that. I believe that kids can have fun learning if you make the material interesting and somewhat tangible. When children have to sit without any intera ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My goal for all my students is to achieve success in their learning and to recognize in themselves that they are capable of that success. With that in mind, I seek to lead and guide the students into not only discerning the answers for themselves, but to learn the method by which they can continue that success on their own. I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to not just teach to each student's learning strengths but to also help them strengthen those areas in which they struggle.
Even before I became an educator, I had the heart of a life-long learner. I believe I was called and gifted to be a teacher and to try to impart a love for learning to my students. I have a BA in English and French, and an MA in French Literature. In my 18 years of teaching experience, I have taught a wide variety of subjects (English, Spanish, French, Social Studies, Math) in mostly small s ... read more
