I make sure that when I teach, I prep each lesson for that individual person. No one learning plan can teach every single person, so I hand-tailor things for each student.
I have been tutoring and teaching since my Sophomore year in high school. At that time I was teaching English as a second language to a few foreigners who were visiting my school. Since that time, I've gone on to teach elementary level through high school children/teens in various subjects with the boys and girls clubs of america.

Part Time Tutor Available

During my college years I worked closely with younger students who needed help with studies, and since my graduation from college continue to work with those that need assistance with various topics of learning. I have a wide range of capabilities including math, science, biology, public speaking, geography, and politics. While I work full time Monday through Friday during the day, I am available evenings and weekends.
My style of teaching is one of direct questioning to be sure the student is understanding the information being povided, and the student is capable of retaining that knowledge.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a Human Resources Manager for past 10 years. A good portion of my job is involved with training. While there are differences in training/teaching adults versus young adults and children, the basics are still the same. I have volunteered in the past as religious educator for children in first, second and fourth grade. I also did some volunteer tutoring over 8 years ago in Mississippi as I was involved with the local literacy council.
I like to make teaching fun. I pride myself on my ability to add fun through puzzles, arts and crafts, etc. and teach all at the same time. It is so rewarding when a child you are working with accomplishes what they may have though to be the impossible. All children, as adults, are sponges that are wanting to absorb all that is around them. I feel that my previous experience in working with children is my resume.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an easy-going nature and a true love of helping my students discover their potential, develop confidence in themselves, and become lifelong learners. Teaching has always been a true joy in my life and I feel that all students can find success, given encouragement and positive learning experiences! I will do my very best to make your child's learning experience with me a great one!
I am a retired Elementary teacher. I taught most of my 30 years working with Kindergartners, First and Second graders, but I have substitute taught grades K through 8th. Throughout my years of teaching I have acquired many techniques/skills that help students learn reading skills in a variety of ways. I like to find particular strengths of my students and use those to make their learning a successful and enjoyable experience! I love incorporating my student's writing and creativity into their readi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My main experience lies in working with elementary aged children in literacy and religious education programs. However, I received a bachelors degree in political science from DePauw University and a law degree (with honors) from the University of Nebraska, so I have a great deal of educational experience to draw from in teaching students as a tutor. In addition to my educational experience, I also have “real world” business experience and excellent research and writing skills through working as an attorney, all of which I will also draw from while tutoring.
I enjoy working with students of all ages. I strive to encourage students to develop a love for learning and the ability to learn independently. Each person has a different learning style so I like to allow students to take an active role in designing the method in which they will best learn the material. The best activities ... read more

I enjoy seeing expressions of accomplishment when students truly grasp various concepts. I expect and demand "excellence," recognizing that "excellence" is a term relative to the student. It seems to me that students retain information most successfully when it has been presented so as to be personally relevant, so I attempt to tailor examples to the student's background.
Most of my experience has been as an engineer. I have worked on projects in Europe, Asia, and all over North America. I got involved tutoring high school students while my sons were in high school. Recently, I completed an MA in Education, and taught science and math for about a year and a half in a couple of Louisiana High Schools. I have a broad background for providing real-world examples of implementations of math and science.

I taught recitation for Honors Differential Equations, Differential Equations, Calculus 3, Calculus 2 and Introduction to Computer Science as an undergraduate at Georgia Tech and physics and astronomy labs as a graduate student at the University of Tennessee. I was consistently rated highly as a teacher by students.
I see teaching as a dialog between teacher and student and adjust the speed and depth of my teaching to best help the student succeed. Most importantly I want to the student to leave with a greater understanding of the subject than when they entered.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with children. I believe that all children are capable of learning. Each child is unique and, therefore, has a unique style of learning that must be tapped in to so that they reach their maximum potential. I believe that learning by doing is the best method of learning. "My" kids are always successful and eager to learn. They understand that we are a team and that together we'll reach farther than they thought possible. There is no higher calling than that of teaching.
I have spent thirty-five years in the field of education. During my college years I worked in the early childhood field and I worked as a private tutor as a means of supporting my education. Since that time I have worked in public schools, religious organizations, private educational facilities, and non-profit organizations partnering with public schools. The past thirteen years m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

“Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel”. This metaphor best represents my perspective on education. The purpose of education is more than merely teaching the necessary curriculum but to further give children a desire to learn and to teach them how to develop their own minds. Education should nurture the inquisitiveness and curiosity in individuals and should help to prepare them for real life experiences. Overall, I am very easy going and fun to be around. I love to find any and all ways to make learning enjoyable. I am very passionate about teaching and helping young minds grow!
I currently hold a Bachelor's degree in Healthcare Administration, and I will have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with an endorsement in Early Childhood come May 2011. During my first degree, I tutored many kids at the Elementary level that was set up through t ... read more

I enjoy teaching students how to learn. Learning strategies teach students how to learn proficiently and quickly. Consider the following illustration. A student can take a football and run toward the goal line. He who runs efficiently and smartly (avoiding players whose goal is to tackle him) will cross the goal line. Discipline and strategy are essential to effective learning. Most students do not plan to fail their subjects, they fail to plan study techniques. I am a patient and easy going person with students. I am a candid and tactful person. I give each student 100% of my effort. All I ask is the student give me 100% of his or her effort.
While I studied for my undergraduate degree, I tutored fellow class mates in History, Business Law, English and other subjects. I taught study skills to help them improve their learning process. To broaden my tutoring horizons, I have rece ... read more
