Love Teaching

Have a secondary education degree from Jacksonville State University. I have tutored before and have had several substitute jobs. I believe in letting the student teach sometimes by being an active participant in the learning experience. I think students do better when they can see the material, read the material,and explain the material because it makes them retain the information.

Possession is 9/10 of the law.. Description is 9/10 of saw.

I have been writing for my whole life, and have a love of the art that is description. Since Mich of humanity's understanding is based on metaphor, description and its subtleties is a key part of any writing process, be it creative or instructional.My favorite form of writing is creative, however I also enjoy writing essays and other pieces based on fact. No matter what form of writing you endeavor to do, getting your point across through description is paramount. I have placed and won poetry contests, and have written many essays of undergraduate and graduate levels.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my life I thrive to help others. I worked for Kumon Math and Reading Center and tutored many students from elementary to middle School. I believe no challenge is difficult enough to overcome. Questions are key to learn about subjects and I have a lot of patience to answer any question asked.

I have spent most of my life in an academic environment. I thrive on success- not only my own, but also the success of others around me. I became a substitute teacher in order to gain experience as a classroom leader. Tutoring is a necessary duty of an educator. I believe a one on one environment is conducive to learning and retaining information; being able to receive direct feedback from an educator is one of the most valuable assets to a young learner.

I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Environmental Sciences from, and will soon have my Master of Arts Degree in Elementary Education. I have recently completed my student teaching requirement and will receive my teacher certification within the next few months. I have been a substitute within the Decatur City Schools System for the past two years in order to gain more first-hand teaching experience. Throughout the course of earning my Master’s Degree, through observations and student teaching, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with a diverse group of students, including those with learning disabilities, those who performed at grade-level, and those who were considered gifted or exceptional.
My greatest joy in life is teaching children and opening their eyes to all of the things they are capable of doing and learning. I have a strong passion to educate young mind ... read more

I like to take a 'backdoor' approach with my students by creating activities that are interesting and fun. I think this helps in changing the student's attitude from a negative to a positive one. I do believe everyone can learn and that it is my job to help facilitate this. I like to vary my teaching style while using interactive, kinetic, audial, visual and explorer type methods. This helps me find what works for individual students. I'm energetic but patient and positive. I think it is important to encourage a student's effort not just his/her outcome.
I have been a Reading Buddy in the Hoover School System for the last 10 years and am currently working with students in the Latino After-School Program at Rocky Ridge Elementary.

My teaching experiences range from being the head teacher in a Montessori toddler classroom to being an eighth grade LEAP Acceleration teacher in a middle school. My most recent teaching experience was teaching second grade. I have taught fourth grade language arts and math classes. When teaching in the LEAP Acceleration position, my classes consisted of twelve to fifteen students and I taught all core subjects. These students had to have failed at least once to be eligible for my class. I experienced great success with these students and most were able to pass the LEAP exam and attend high school.
My Montessori training and experience has taught me that the only way students will be successful is to have good self esteem. If you convince them that they can learn and be successful, then that is what they do. I have a talent for creating lessons and materials that are fun and ch ... read more

I earned both of my degrees while working and caring for very young children. I feel this was possible because of my time management skills and determination to see a task through to completion. I have worked in the accounting or banking industry for over thirty years and truly love working with numbers. I fell in love with accounting in high school, finishing the semester project in about a month and a half and never looked back. I also feel that many of the concepts that accounting teaches are valuable in life even if accounting is not the career path chosen.
During high school, my teacher requested that I help others in my class and I realized how much I loved helping others understand how accounting works. Also in helping my children with their school work, I have learned that each child is different and learns in different ways. I would describe my style of teaching as fi ... read more

While attending Birmingham Southern College, I had several teaching experiences: I volunteered as a tutor at a nearby elementary school, tutored in my college's writing center, and worked for three summers as a camp counselor. After receiving a BA in English, I taught high school English conversation in Hungary for a year. My ultimate goal is to teach English at a university, but I love working with primary and secondary schoolers. Given my reading, writing, and editing experience (as well as my extensive experience working with children), I feel comfortable teaching and tutoring students in the humanities, especially literature, grammar, and composition.
I thoroughly enjoy working with, teaching, and learning from children. I approach teaching with the belief that all students are capable of excelling if both they and the teacher have the appropriate attitude. With an easygoin ... read more

My style is to first find the way each student learns best. Be it through visual or oral means. It is also important to note that each student is different and has different needs. Those needs need to be known so that we my help their greatest need.
I graduated from Georgia Tech in 2008. In high school I was on the math team all four years. That helped me excel in my math skills. I also tutored my peers my senior year everyday before class started. I currently tutor a high school senior.

As a mother and a certified teacher, I enjoy teaching, tutoring, and working with students of all ages. Through receiving my teaching degree, I recognize the importance of individualized instruction as well as the importance of maintaining patience with and providing comfortable environments for students. I enjoy assisting students reach and exceed their goals. I feel that the best way to help a student understand a concept, or subject, is to determine his or her individual learning style, interests, and perspectives. This type of instruction is not always practical in a classroom, which is why I began tutoring. All students have the potential to succeed, and I am here to assist you or your child in achieving that success.
With my degree and certification, I am highly qualified to teach students in grades K-6 in all subject areas. In addition to my degree, I received training for A ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working, teaching, and mentoring children. I have learned to adjust to the different learning styles of children, which makes it easier for the child to feel more comfortable with learning. In order to work with children there has to be a great amount of patience and concern. I have learned patience through working with children from all walks of life and I have come to appreciate each child's story. I belive that reaching out to those in need will not only help someone else to meet their full potential but for the teacher also. I believe in making a difference in other's life because others have helped shaped me into who I am today.
As a recent graduate, I have learned the importance of education. I have earned a Bachelor of Science with a major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Not only do I contain a strong understanding in those subjects but took several classes in oth ... read more

While I was completing my degree I started to substitute teach. I enjoyed it. And I would like to continue to provide a service to our future leaders.
My teaching style varies depending on the students I am teaching. When I was subbing for younger students I made sure everything was hands on so I made sure they understood the class work.
