Hands on, direct, will not bash you with criticism but will give quite enough to help. I probably quite understand where you are coming from.
Have had several very succcessful classes in biology (anatomy in particular) and english, writing, history. I have with a group successfully dissected a full human cadaver. I have also tutored summer school in the past so I am comfortable working with people. I am familiar with both MLA and Turabian essay format. I have also been a human anatomy volunteer and instructor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

My degree in Psychology has a strong basis in Behavior Analysis. This is what I will be getting my Master’s degree in starting in the Fall. My teaching style mainly focuses on positive reinforcement. I use positive reinforcement in order to increase a behavior of choice. The behaviors we want to increase can range from working more math problems, reading more, increase doing home work, increase studying, etc. An instructional method will be used as well in order increase their knowledge of the subject and then positive reinforcement will increase their confidence and motivation which is necessary for success.
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry from the University of Mississippi. I am dedicated and plan to further my education at the Master’s level. My undergraduate career consisted of many hours of numerous subjects such as Math (Algebra-Calculus II) ... read more

I believe all children can obtain their goals, but not all children have the same goals. I believe that all children can be successful, that children are individuals and learn at different paces. I am patient and I encourage students to do their best. It is important to set small achievable goals that the students can be successful in. When they begin to see that they are making progress, they become more confident in themselves and in their academic abilities.

I believe that all children have the capacity to learn. Educators need to guide them in their endeavors. All children deserve a quality education. They need to learn in an environment that is structured but engaging. Every child has a different learning style and teachers need to be able to adapt their lessons to all children. I strive to learn each child interests and learning style and incorporate these aspects into lessons. I believe the parent, student, and teacher interaction is extremely important for a child’s academic success.
