College educated professional with two decades of work experience. I have worked in a variety of jobs over the years, and I know that academic pursuits aren't always easy for working people. I will tutor students, but my focus is on helping adults who are working toward a GED or who want to improve themselves or their prospects in the workplace.

My diverse work experiences in the non-profit sector have provided practical, real-world training in helping students reach their full academic potential. I have written grant proposals (totaling over $2.4 million) to support literacy, early childhood education, and remediation programs for both rural and inner-city youth. Before entering the professional workforce fulltime, I served as a volunteer literacy tutor at Walton Elementary School in Jackson, MS and at Raspberry United Methodist Church in Indianola, MS. As an undergraduate, I was employed as a part-time English and French tutor with Student Support Services. In addition, I served as a substitute teacher while in graduate school at the University of Southern Mississippi.
I believe all children are born with the same amount of human potential. However, I’m disheartened by what I’ve witnessed in Mississippi’s public schools: ... read more

I love to learn, and love passing that on to others. I am a patient personality, and I may present a problem to a student to evaluate where they are. From there, we can go either backwards or to more advanced work. Education is very important for myself and for my children, and I like to instill that learning takes you further in life than where someone may have not even dreamed. I am amazed at seeing cashiers who can't make simple change, or someone who can't calculate a small percentage in their head, such as 10% of a number. I want children to learn and have a feel-good attitude with their accomplishments.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to assist individuals of all ages. However, I love working with children simply because everything children learn while they are young, will remain with them when they are older. I know that every child is different. However, all children have the capacity to learn. Regardless if I am a tutor, I try my best to help children to become better individuals by being an example.
I am currently a senior at University of Mississippi. I graduate May 08, 2010 with a BA in Sociology and a minor in Psychology. I have tutored 4th graders at Della Davidson Elementary School in Oxford, MS in Reading and Social Studies. I love interacting with the students and found great reward in doing so.

A Little Bit About Me...

Determining the learning styles of individual students is important to me. I adjust and accomodate my approach based on how students respond and learn. Changing my methods and being creative help me reach students on many levels. I enjoy building on past knowledge, kinesthetic activities, and appealing to students interests.
I have been a teacher for the past five years. I have taught Language Arts and History. For the past two years I have taught 7th and 8th grade, but I have also taught 9th and 5th grade. Outside of my career, I have tutored my own children, currently ages 11 and 9.I have also been an Intervention Coach and tutor. I excell at individual and small group tutoring.

More About This Tutor...

I believe children learn by experiences and examples. Making it relevant and interesting makes them to want to learn. They begin to understand the purpose for learning the material. Children have different learning styles and every child doesn't learn at the same rate. Teachers must realize this when planning lessons. Students need to know that to have the basics such as a home, a car and food for their family, they need an education. Kids don't think about the future and how their decisions will determine the rest of their lives. By helping them to set goals for themselves, they will strive to do their best and begin to realize that they can learn.
I substituted after graduation and realized I loved teaching. In college I was asked to tutor for my instructors. My classmates came over to my house to study. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Ole Miss in 99'. I taught 2nd and 5th grade ... read more
