My comments on tutoring Science : My major is in Cognitive Psychology with a double minor in Biology and Applied Anthropology. I have taken a broad range of courses and feel competent in my abilities to tutor most elementary and middle grades fields of science.

My approach is multimodal as all students are different. The one consistent element is that of an active learning environment. Passive memorization and repetitive tasks are not part of my repertoire as both have usually been unsuccessfully attempted by those seeking tutoring. I request a lot of participation from the student. Development of critical thinking is also a fundamental part of the tutoring environment. This skill alone will help students through all academic courses (and life in general). Although my expectations are high, we begin by building a firm foundation of study skills and habits which work to make these expectations attainable. My background knowledge in human cognition has given me invaluable insight into how we encode, retain and recall information.
As a returning adult college student, I have both classroom experience and life experience. My academic bac ... read more

Passionate about learning.

I have experience as a peer tutor. Since I am an avid reader, I love all things related to books, vocabulary, literature and English. I have young children that I help daily with homework assignments. I have also worked many years as a trainer in genetics. I am also a DI(directed instruction) volunteer for elementary school. I enjoy opportunities to share my knowledge with others and learn as well.
I realize that everyone learns differently, and I believe in flexibility. I also believe in encouraging success and consistency.

A Little Bit About Me...

Our children today need to be encouraged and given the opportunity to develop. Some students aren't able to get the attention they need in a classroom setting with all of the other students. All they may need is one on one time to help explain the concept in a way they understand. I'm a very "hands on" tutor and like developing fun, creative ways for the students to learn. I am attentive, encouraging, patient, and considerate and will be available to help the children succeed. My goal is to make a positive difference in each students life.
As a graduate of Pfeiffer University's Pre Medical program, I feel that I am qualified to tutor students in the fields of math and science. I graduated Magna Cum Laude and finished in the top ten in my class. With a double major in Pre-Med and Biology, and a minor in Chemistry, I have gained understanding of these areas and can help other st ... read more

I have tutored fellow classmates in the past throughtout middle school and high school. Although I am not certified to teach, I have taken quite a few teaching curriculum courses while attending North Carolina State University. I have the ability to teach and accomodate different learning styles with various age groups from the Pre-K level to high school ranging from elementary students to adults. Subject matter in which I am willing/can tutor includes but is not limited to: math, English, social studies, science, etc. With such skills, I have been asked by my local church pastor to develop tutoring programs.
My teaching style is based on reading then reviewing. At that point in time ask questions to see if the student has grasped the information being given. If not, answer questions then clarify. When reviewing information it is important to make sure the student knows reaso ... read more

I have six children of my own and know that every child learns differently, even when they come from the same family. I believe the majority of children can master the material they are presented in school, but it is a matter of time. Many children take a little more time to understand the concepts and master the skills needed to move on to the next level. Sadly many of these children aren't given the time to do it and are just passed on to the next level. By doing this they fall further and further behind until they become discouraged to the point of quitting. I desire to reach those children. Not every child is an "A" student, but every child has his or her unique gifts. I strive to help each child find those gifts and to do the best he or she can in every area. I like to get to know the child and find the best way possible, whether it be modifying a curriculum or my own approa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a parent, former student, and an educator, I have been teaching children and adolescents for over ten years. I am skilled in the areas of English, psychology, sociology, and criminal justice. I also have a basic knowledge of Spanish having been educated in this area as well.
I believe listening is a fundamental element of teaching. I provide my students with an enhanced listenting ability in order that I may better serve their needs. I tend to work at a pace that is comfortable for your child without providing pressure or stressors. In utilizing this style of teaching, the experience becomes more enjoyable for your child which, in turn, makes learning not only essential but rewarding.

I love to teach, period. I believe that as a humanistic educator, all children can learn if given the right attention and the right motivation to succeed. In the past, I have worked with students from all backgrounds and economic strata-AG students, "At-risk" students, and they taught me to be deligent but not gullible, firm but not overbearing, and to always give a calm and penetrating judgement in times of crisis. In the interim, I am pleased to say that I have taught over five thousand students in the state of North Carolina that are presently giving their major contributions to the building of the state and country. I am very proud of that. I am a firm believer in teaching through experimentation, discovery and in providing challenging opportunities for students to grow. My goal is to proide the best education money can buy. I believe children learn by doing, and not by spo ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching is an art that needs to be perfected based on each individual child’s needs. I am a very demanding teacher, but at the same time always fair and give positive reinforcement while the student is learning and of course, when they have obtained their goals. I teach using a variety of strategies, but feel that hands on learning works best for most students, especially those in a tutoring atmosphere. Therefore, many manipulatives for just about any concept are used in order to turn a problem into the solution.
In my 2nd year of teaching, I have enjoyed the experiences that have came my way due to my students. I enjoy going to work daily and leave almost everyday with a sense of gratification because of the accomplishments I help my students achieve. I currently teach 4th grade and feel this grade level has helped me fine tune my writing skills due to the demanding pressure pla ... read more

I have been working with students of varying socioeconomic backgrounds as a teacher. I have not only earned my Bachelor's Degree in English, I also have a Master's in Education. I love helping students succeed! I have taught students in all elementary subjects.
I am a calm teacher who believes all students can become successful if given the individual time and attention that is needed. My goal is to help the student by modeling and then using encouragement and self-esteem building so that the student will become more confident. All children can learn and be successful when given instructional guidance that is geared toward the individual and encouragement to try their best. I strive to reach each and every child to help them be successful and achieve their potential.
