I worked at Elohim Center tutoring the kids at an after school homework center in Hartsville, SC. I also worked at Hartsville School of Performing Arts for a short time period. However I provided assistance to the teachers and mentored the children that had potential, but didn't have the extra push in life to motivate them to be more. I worked at Billie Hardee Home for Boys in Darlington, SC as a volunteer I provided teen age boys the assistance in tutoring them with math, reading, and science. I have earned a BA in Criminology and an Associates in Sociology. As a soldier helping people is not a job or a career, it's my choice in life to give and be rewarded through the final product of a completed task. I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe and know that children can learn, but they have their own ways of learning. I am available not only to help your child

Because every child learns in a unique variety of ways, I incorporate a wide range of learning methods into each lesson. Tuning each component of a carefully crafted lesson to the needs of each individual student - is a juggling act that is challenging and rewarding to me. Intuitively supporting learning’s synergistic nature, I enjoy the daily balance of presenting new principles, while skillfully solidifying what has been previously learned. I am an honors graduate with a degree in Special Education and dual certification in Elementary Education. I am currently working toward a masters degree in learning and technology. My teaching experience prior to entering public education included teaching in an international school (Qingdao, China)and teaching in private schools in the United States. I am experienced with helping students to reach their academic and personal goals regardles

There have been numerous studies showing that different types of learning exist, and it is my belief that each individual student needs to be taught through adaptive teaching methodologies. I believe that everyone is unique, and each student needs to develop their own style of learning. It is the job of the educator to discover those different styles and implement a teaching method that is most advantageous to the student. Having earned a bachelor's degree in Theology and Apologetics with superior academic achievement,I have challenged myself academically, and developed excellent writing and argumentative skills. I have written extensive research papers, and successfully defeated many opponents in classroom debate. I served as a tutor for Homeland Park Elementary for one year during my college career.

I plan to implement creative and supportive instruction and mentoring for my students in which follows their needs. I find teaching a privilege in which students are able to feel confident that what I teach and recap is reliable and accurate. I plan to teach in a comfortable setting in which students are not intimidated but embraced with their desire to learn. Teaching individuals who are hungry to advance their knowledge and careers is my desire and objective. Currently I am completing my course work at Capella University as a PhD student in Organization Management and Business with a specialization in teaching. As I am completing my program, I plan to teach Associate and Bachelor level courses in addition to tutoring in a wide range of studies in which I have experience in through my research, studies, and/or degrees. I have found my degrees to be unique in the aspect that my Bach

My philosphy of education is that children learn through real-world experiences and tapping into their interests will foster their educational development. Another key factor in helping students achieve academic success is assessment and observation of individual learning styles and multiple intelligences. Honing those positive features in students will inspire and motivate their learning to new levels. I believe strongly in problem-solving and hands-on learning to promote higher level thinking skills. I feel children have just as much to teach as they do learn, and that cooperative learning will benefit them not only academically by teaching themselves and their peers, but also socially to promote and build self-esteem. I have a BS in Elementary Education and a MAEd in Curriculum & Technology. I am a K-6 certified teacher in North Carolina, and I have taught second, third, and sixth gra

As an MBA graduate with a concentration in Finance, I have had much experience with Finance and Accounting courses. I am used to working in teams and have a talent for simplifying complex information in order to help others. I have tutored a friend in undergraduate accounting and with my help he received an A in the class. I consider myself an expert in MS Excel, Access, and PowerPoint; all of which I believe will be essential in completing a degree in finance or accounting. I am fresh out of my masters program and have taken all the relevant courses that would enable me to help other students in their pursuit of a finance/accounting degree. I really enjoy helping and teaching people. I realize that everyone learns in a different fashion and that each student needs a specifically tailored teaching method. I believe a student really learns the material when he/she understands the reasonin

I love teaching. My goal is to help the children to understand the "learning world". Every child is different, and they require different attention. It is important know how to teach topics, and when to be more specific and patient with the learner. My background includes a BS in Electrical Engineering Technology, an A.A.S. Degree in Electronics Engineering and an A.A.S Degree in Computer Engineering; I received the BS degree from UNCC and the A.A.S degrees from CPCC. During tha past two years I have tutored student in Mathematics and Spanish.

While earning my Masters in Accounting, I voluntarily tutored Undergrad students that were earning their Associates or Bachelors in Accounting. The students were enrolled in the local community college (Central Carolina Tech) as well as the University of South Carolina. I have earned an Associates, Bachelors, and Masters which all have concentration in Accounting. I tutor based on the individual's learning needs. I have encountered some that were visual learners ad everything had to be drawn/written out. I have also tutored students that can have me explain it and they grasp it easily. My teaching style changes according to the needs of the student because not every one learns the same. I do believe Accounting is a complex field and the student has to have an interest in the field to truly be successful in retaining what they are taught.

I am an energetic educator who uses hands-on, interdisciplinary instruction to inspire and motivate students while challenging them to think on a higher level. I believe that every child can succeed. Consequently, my students feel confident, supported and understand that mistakes are a crucial part of the learning process. I strive to promote independence, critical thinking and resourcefulness in my students. Further, I charge them to take ownership of their learning. Learning is more meaningful when teachers help students make connections to the real world and across disciplines. By applying an inquiry-based model of teaching, I fuel my students’ passion for knowledge and hopefully, inspire them to be lifelong learners. I am a fully credentialed teacher with over two years of experience teaching kindergarten and 2nd grade. As an educator, I have worked with gifted children, special ne

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE River City High School, Sacramento CA Algebra teacher 08/08/2005-12/18/2005 Teacher Assistant Math department UCDavis 09/30/2003 – 08/05/2005 TA for classes Calculus 16A, 16B, 16C and 21A, 21B, 21C (groups and individual consultations) About my role as a teacher, I think that the main principle should be “teaching for understanding”. A teacher creates learning opportunities that engage students in thinking about important mathematical concepts. Facts and skills support such learning but are not the ultimate goal. A teacher not only draws on past knowledge of mathematics but continuously builds on and refines that knowledge during meaningful interactions with students and colleagues. Thus, her or his practice as a teacher is constantly evolving

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

Throughout my years of teaching I had some students who needed additional help so I tutored along with my teaching. I spent extra time with them after class or in a laboratory. I won many awards for teaching and was selected teacher of the year in 2002. Along with adult college students, I have worked with Boy Scouts, middle school students and high school students. Also, I volunteered as an instructor for the Charlotte Mecklenburg School System. My teaching style is like a coach. I show the student the method to solve the problem and then I observe, correct and praise the student while he/she solves similar problems. It is important to explain the underlining principle in the problem so the student will be able to solve similar problems without just memorizing a few rules. I try to use the best learning style (verbal, logical, visual, auditory, kinesthetic, etc) that fits each stud

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 placed on my students to pass the 4th grade writing test. I feel that I am already a good teacher, but know I can be better. Therefore, I will be starting my master’s degree in the summer of 2006 in hopes to become a more effective teacher. 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.
