More About This Tutor...

I tend to prefer a Socratic method of teaching where the student discovers the answer through discussion, reading and research. I will use direct instruction on occassion when the need arises but my classroom is typically humming with group work and whole class discussions.
I have been teaching social studies in Cabarrus County for the past 12 years. I am nationally board certified and have my AP certification in World History. This summer I will be receiving my IB training and will begin teaching AP world history in the IB classroom. I am interested in tutoring specifically in world and AP world history, which I consider my speciality, but am proficient in all social studies classes and can help at any level. I am familiar with the set up and requirements of the AP World History exam and am willing to learn all there is to know about the other social studies AP exams in order ... read more

A total learning experience

Since coming to the Charlotte region in 1996, I have had a wide variety of experiences as a language teacher, having taught in public, private, homeschool, summer school and tutoring situations. Although my primary focus is teaching French, I have also had the opportunity to equip students in Spanish I and II to continue with their language studies. Passionate about providing students with cross-cultural experiences, I have been the lead teacher on five different homestay trips to France with students from grades 5-11, as well as coordinated homestays for visiting French students with families in the Charlotte area. I have also coordinated five different "immersion camps" for students, ranging in age from 5-17, creating for students a more "hands-on" approach to learning language.
I believe every student can learn, and as a result incorporate a variety of learning techniques to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Once I have an understanding of what a student is capable of I like to push them to go past their "comfort zone" in learning. It helps them understand that what may look difficult, may not always be so and that they only way to find out is to learn it. Also, I do not teach study habits. Instead I like to see what a students current habits are and work on expanding those habits so that the child does not get frustrated and overwhelmed. It is easier to learn more from current knowledge than try to teach a whole new way. After all, most students study habits are based on how their teacher has taught them, and I wouldn't go against what the teacher has taught. The point of tutoring is to help a child understand the work they are currently doing in school. It is my job to make sure that happens. I will want to speak with your child to determine the best way to teach them.
I have experie ... 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.

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 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.
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.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Criminal Justice with minors in African American Studies and Sociology from The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. While studying at UNCC, composing papers on a variety of subjects enhanced my grammar and sentence structure. Being a Lead teacher at Dixon Academy, supplied me with experience in interacting with both children and their parents from diverse behavioral, cultural, and economic backgrounds. In addition, it was my goal to make sure that my students completed their homework before leaving the center. Helping my children achieve that goal allowed me to apply my knowledge in mathematics, English, art, and science.
The sense of achievement that can be seen on a child’s face after mastering the unknown is why I am passionate about teaching. I am flexible, understanding, and compassionate. I believe that surrounding the chi ... read more

As a successful college graduate in the rigorous discipline of philosophy, enhanced logical analysis, critical thinking, and compelling communication are skills that I have worked for years to cultivate, and which I have demonstrated to an above satisfactory degree, earning the distinction of magna cum laude from my alma mater, UNC Charlotte. I have tutored students in the areas of English, psychology, philosophy, statistics, algebra, and sociology for years, beginning as part of the Gaston College faculty and progressing to independent work students from all areas of Charlotte, NC. My developed strengths lend themselves to any area of service which requires acute reasoning, skilled planning, and clear communication, and I have found tutoring to fit perfectly with my abilities.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching social studies for so many years has allowed me to implement a great variety of teaching strategies, such as graphic organizers, cooperative learning, note-taking guides, debates, Socratic seminars, gallery walks, dramatic presentations, roundtable writing, independent studies, multi-media presentations, etc. As a middle school teacher, I learned quickly how to relate subject areas to the everyday lives of middle-schoolers. I am able to create assignments to cater to all of the multiple intelligences. I have an ability to break down abstract concepts in ways an early adolescent can understand. I strive for excellence in teaching, and I expect the same from my students, regardless of background. Most of all, I have discovered that it is true that students "don't care what you know until they know that you care."
I have taught or tutored students in preschool, middle sc ... read more
