Depending on the area of study, my style of teaching is to allow the subject material to be come a personal part of the student. I feel that until a student makes it his or her own, he or she will not get the full potential od that subject.
I have owned a business for over 17 years. I have been involved with several ministries help people understand their potential in the world. I have be a teacher of the bible for over 15 years at different locations. I am currently a senior Pastor and business owner. I have years of experience giving speeches and different presentations.

More About This Tutor...

I am interested in going back to the basics in the teaching of mathematics due to the fact that during my years of working with students I have discovered that the majority of them abhor math because some do not know the times table verbatim which is one of the basics that will obstruct the learning and correct mechanics of solving mathematical problems. I am a really good remedial mathematics teacher.
I am a veteran Teacher of Mathematics; I have been affiliated with the Jackson Public Schools District approximately twenty (20) years or more, serving in various positions as a Limited Substitute Teacher in Mathematics (primarily), English and JROTC as well. My field of expertise is prealgebra, algebra I and Geometry. I am also proficient in the teaching of English and Preparatory Writing in which I taught on the college level as an instructor here locally. My 'love-affair' with ... read more

Performed duties as an Editorial Assistant in Humanities and in high school annual poetry and creative writing review.

I prefer to demonstrate how to understand content. My tactics are deemed personal modeler as a teaching style. I deliver the content through demonstrating it. I act more as a guide or coach and show students how to do the tasks. Student participation as an important part of my lesson plans. Demonstrators often incorporate different learning styles into lessons.

A Little Bit About Me...

Even though teaching is not my profession, I enjoy working with individuals and seeing them learn new concepts. I am easy going, calm and patient. My goal is to make learning enjoyable and create a desire to learn more. All students can learn if given the proper tools and environment.
My 20+ years of working have given me the opportunity to gain experience in the following industries: public accounting, non-profit education, telecommunications, legal and banking. Some of the skills that I have acquired include: general accounting, auditing and taxes, budgeting, financial analyses and financial modeling. I also have directed my church choir for the past 20 years.

My teaching style totally depends on my student. Every one has a different learning style, and I try to be adaptable. I believe you must create a relaxed and and supportive atmosphere for the learner. Projecting a sense of confidence in the student goes a long way towards helping him/her achieve his/her educational goal. Lots of time the student has the skills but is not sure enough of himself/herself to proceed. I am just the prompter. I really enjoy sharing in the learning process and especially relish the moment when the student discovers his ability to learn and achieve.
Both of my parents were teachers so education is very important to me. My experience in teaching ranges from working with elementary children as a teacher's assistant to being an Adult Education Instructor. I worked with 3rd graders who were low in math and reading for about 3 years. My greatest challen ... read more

My teaching style is to merge technology, current events, and thought provoking question into one. I related the given subject to the student as best as I can. This makes the subject personal and it makes the information easy to retain.
During my education at Alcorn, I have helped a myriad of my colleagues with papers, historical facts, and a general/detail understanding of a given historical topic. I would routinely do this three to four times a week. This opportunity helped to expand my knowledge and expound the students.

I have a Political Science degree from Lousiana State University and I had planned to use that degree to get into Law School. However, I love working with children therefore I decided to get an Alternate Route Degree in Teaching Elementary Education. I have been employed by Jackson Public Schools for the past three years where I worked two years at Pecan Park Elementary as a Fourth grade teacher and one year at Woodville Heights Elementary as a third grade teacher. Teaching has been my life and a joy to me. I also have a three year old of my own that I enjoy educating as well. I work with him daily using the "Your Baby Can Read" software and it has really been a benefit to our family.
