Sociology is one of my top subjects! I am a sociology doctoral student and have taught undergraduate sociology courses for 4 years.

My senior faculty and student evaluations have confirmed that my teaching style is primarily interpersonal, fun, and relatable. I teach students from where they are, not where I think they should, while paying special attention to making sure they master course material. Students relate to me because, I too am a student (doctoral). Therefore, the classroom is often a space of exchanging ideas, talking about study strategies, and covering course material. My classrooms are extremely informal, but I have had extreme success with maintaining respect, eagerness, and I have even unintentionally inspired students to change their majors after taking my introductory classes.
In the past six years, I have worked extensively on federally grant funding research (National Institute on Aging, National Institute of Health, and National Science Foundation) in my sociology doctoral program at Geor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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. I took British Lit in my undergrad courses. I have a lot of experience with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and some exposure to Publishing. I could tutor basic computer skills in these areas.
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 fo ... read more

More About This Tutor...

A commercial banker by trade, I currently teach two (2) classes on financial literacy skills to legal immigrant refugees from India, Burma, and Cuba. This volunteer work is offered through the Catholic Charities arm of the Archdiocese of Atlanta. I started teaching these classes roughly six (6) months ago on a volunteer basis, and the classes have been very well received thus far. The first class is entitled "Introduction to Banking", and teaches the fundamentals of personal banking (how to open a checking account, how to write a check, etc.). The second class is focused on family budget planning. Each class is roughly 1.5 - 2 hours in length, depending on the number of questions asked by the students. In addition to the above, I have tutored a foreign immigrant from Turkey in pre-calculus and college-level English. I tutored this student on a volunteer basis for roughly two ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my education career of thirty plus years, I have taught grade level and remedial language arts for grades 6-12, as well as freshman composition (college level), Advanced Placement Literature and Language, and college prep literature and writing courses. While employed as a high school teacher and department head, I elected to teach courses from the entire spectrum of those offered in English. Thus, I am experienced in attending to students' skills and effective instruction in relation to state requirements and test results. Immediately following retirement in 2004, as an education consultant for a major publishing company, I taught reading and language arts to diverse elementary students in cities in the Midwest, Southwest, and Southeast until 2008. I constantly assessed the impact of lesson design and specific teaching strategies for individuals and groups within given enviro ... read more

As a person I have always held my work ethic to remarkable standards. I've finished an Associate's Degree in two years flat, and am well on my way to having completed a bachelor's in only three and a half years time. Along my studies I have worked to support myself, as well as bring others up in my wake, tutoring colleagues and counseling those in need of a friend, and I have challenged myself, being one of few to attend the first ever Honors English course at Gordon College, and coming out with an A+. I continue to work hard, and I strive to set an example for all future generations, and I hope that by building off of my accomplishments, they can achieve things they've only dreamed of.
I love helping people to see the other side of things, and understand how simple complex systems can be. Mainly, I like to inspire thought, and provoke an individual learning style in all those I me ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Currently I am a organic chemistry lecturer at a local college but I have always been an advocate of education. I have a PhD in organic chemistry and a BS in chemistry. My background has allowed me to understand a range of topics from math and science to English. I have tutored students for over 11 years and I recently was a mentor to a high school student for two years.
I have loved to teach every since I was a young girl playing school with my younger siblings. Since that time I have observed several different teaching and learning styles. As an instructor, I try to incorporate several different teaching styles to accomodate the students in my class. I set high expectations for my students and equip them with the knowledge to reach their full potential. I believe education is the key to success and everyone should have equal access to the opportunities education can provide.

I have no teaching experience but I'm in the process of getting my State Of Georgia teaching certification though troops to teachers program sponsor by the Georgia Department of Labor. I also applied and was accepted in the Thomson Learning program teaching ESL in South Korea for one year. I was also employed part time as a GED Test Proctor though Harrisburg Area Community College.

The teaching style I prefer begins with making each child feel important and presenting the material in a way that everyone understands and feels comfortable. I'm currently enrolled in the Start Smart Early Childhood Subtitute teaching program sponsored though the United Way. This training provides an on hands class stimulation and different teaching methods. It is my goal to make learning fun and rewarding.

I am the mother of seven children ranging in ages from 32 to 18. I home-schooled them for 16 years and tutored them when they entered the public school system.

A Little Bit About Me...

Education for me is second nature. My teaching practice encompasses many different techniques to address many different learning styles. I constantly strive to effectively combine traditional lecture-style approaches with new, fresh, dynamic presentations which bring to life the sometimes dull, gray subject matter that students have to deal with. I also employ a very personal, approachable demeanor which gives students the perspective of a teacher as another human being and not an omnipotent sage in his ivory tower of knowledge.
As a lifelong academician, writer, and researcher, I have embraced the experiences and general culture of that of an educator. In addition to my undergraduate degree in Education, I have earned an MS and Ph. D. in the Parapsychic Sciences and Philosophy. Along with my varied classroom instructional experiences, I have had the good fortune of writing an ... read more

I am available to help your child succeed as I am patient and thorough in my teaching.

As an elementary educator, I have experience presenting information to students in a student friendly language. Additionally, I am also very well versed in the Georgia State Performance Standards for elementary students in all subject areas. Although I am a trained and certified teacher, I have a sincere heart for tutoring on a one-on-one basis and breaking down information to students that often struggle in the whole group instructional setting. I believe that becoming a part of this network will be a very benificial partnership between an eager educator and an organization that is steadfast in supporting students in their academic endeavors.
I absolutely love children. As a 2007 Teach for America core member I am a believer in the motto, "One day all students will have the opportunity of a quality education in this country." My teaching style is very energetic and full of self-co ... read more
