Testing Skills Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Perkins, GA

I am a teen girl that makes straight A's in school. I started tutoring in 3rd grade by tutoring my niece that was currently in 2nd grade. I have been tutoring many people since then and have helped them succeed many things. Hopefully I can do the same with your child. If any other help is needed, I would be happy to do so too.

I have worked with many children and adolescents, for the past 8 years, mentoring and tutoring. I enjoy working with our youth and feel that education is very important, especially in today's society. I understand that each individual learns differently, and that it is important to cater to each individual's needs. I also feel that learning can be fun, as well. I took advantage of opportunities (to help further my education) that I was given, when I was younger, and feel that it is important to give back.

I have always valued education. I can remember comparing grades and discussing what we learned in class as early as 2nd grade. We had a healthy competitive spirit that helped us grown into productive adults. I first began tutoring in an afterschool program in 1995. I have always loved assisting students with learning. I have even considered getting my teaching certification. I currently have my MBA in Business management and feel most comfortable teaching math reading and English to children ages 5-12. I love all children. I believe all children learn in different ways. it's up to us to determine what workds for them and help them acquire the knowledge they need. I am patient, easy going, and caring. My goal is to provide the best education possible. All children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. Educators are the world's

My teaching style is highly interactive and engaged. The relationship between student and teacher is based on mutual respect for our respective capabilities. An important first step in teaching, and particularly in introducing new material, is to construct a frame of reference familiar to the student, and then begin to expand that frame to enhance conceptualization and mastery of new skills and knowledge. As a parent of four, educator,education advocate and mentor, I have spent most of my adult life working with young people in various learning enviroments. I have a love for and commitment to educational preparedness for students of every learning level. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree, the Master of Social Sciences degree, a Master of Arts degree, and will receive the Ph.D degree in Educational Innovation and Human Development in May 2010.

I believe that every child has a natural desire and ability to learn. When I teach I focus on the students' interests and give them as much free choice as possible in order to encourage their natural sense of wonder and to maintain a warm environment. That said, I consistently expect high standards of achievement and behavior. I also endeavor to use different learning methods incorporating visual, auditory, and kinesthetic tools, which allow for the varied learning styles of different students. My goal is to teach high school English. I have several years experience working with youth in teaching roles, including tutoring both math and english. For 11 months in Ecuador I taught English, Health, Phys. Ed., and career skills to elementary school working children and literacy to their parents. Other experiences include 6 weeks teaching project management and career skills to high sc

I enjoy teaching almost as much as I enjoy learning. I believe that basic education skills are the foundation for success. Progressing through school in Independent Study Classes, I am fully aware that conventional methods of teaching and studying do not work for every child. I invite and accept the challenge of discovering new ways to share the knowledge that I have gathered so far in my educational career. I think it’s important to maintain patience and provide support to anyone who may need a little extra help learning a skill. I began tutoring in the third grade after I was accepted into Independent Study Classes. I was selected to tutor my fellow classmates in spelling and reading comprehension. My volunteer tutoring continued throughout my grade school years and into my higher education career. Once in college, I was hired as a mental health worker and tutor to austitic children.

I absolutely love working with children in an attempt to help them to realize the value of a quality education. I have worked with children with psychological and behavioral issues and have helped them to thrive in an educational setting and to strive towards changing their own circumstances to create brighter futures for themselves. I am extremely creative and am always trying to find ways to help the children learn through experience and action, instead of rote memorization. I think of myself as having a lot of patience and compassion for individuals needs for a variety of teaching styles. I am a graduate of the University of West Georgia Psychology department, with a focus on humanistic and holistic ideology. In January I began my second Bachelor's program in Studio art, and eventually plan to pursue a Master's degree in Art Therapy. I have experience working with teenagers in a resid

I believe that all students have the ability to learn but not in the same way and on the same day. It takes work, but a teacher needs to find what works best for each student to learn. It is essential to utilize the multiple intelligences as well as theories on how boys and girls learn differently. I work well with parents and students, breaking down barriers and working within the parameters that work best. I have a extensive background with teaching and implementation in education. My most current position was the Executive Director of School Improvement and Sales. I have experience analyzing data, working with teams to improve student achievement using research based interventions. I have experience from Elementary to College level.

I am a graduate of Eckerd College, in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I received a B.A. with Honors in History and Theater. As a result of my academic achievement, I was awarded the Excellence in Historical Scholarship Award and was a finalist for the 2007 Writing Excellence Award. Upon my graduation from college, I was accepted into Teach for America's 2007 Atlanta Corps. During my two-year commitment with Teach for America, I taught sixth grade Social Studies at the B.E.S.T. Boy's Academy. As a teacher, I also tutored students after school in writing and reading. As a teacher I witnessed first hand the challenges students face in public schools. Due to the importance placed on standardized tests, students are often taught with a single focus in mind. Often times the different needs and learning styles of students are overlooked or ignored completely. I, on the other hand, prefer to t

I have earned a BS in Physical Education. My major was Athletic Training, which has prepared me to gain extensive knowledge in Biology and Anatomy & Phys. I also have prior tutoring experience helping with students at my church and family members who were younger than me. I have helped tutor students with all major subjects. I am a patient, understanding, and considerate person. I love the sight of a child learning something after a person takes the time to show the steps. At the moment, I am unemployed throughout the week so i can meet with a child/children whenever they need me. I also can help a child through their personal problems because it is not always that a child does not understand the information; sometimes they have other things affecting their lives. I want to be able to make a difference in a child life forever.

As an educator,I enjoy embrassing teachable moments.I began my teaching career with Severely and Profoundly Intellectually Disabled children, who ranged in grade level from K-5. I was then granted the opportunity to teach the same class, but on a middle aged grade level. I have also, and am currently, teaching general education 8th grade students. While I couldn't totally dismiss myself from the special education spectrum; I take part in inclusion teaching. I also perform small group instruction for students working below grade level in mathematics, reading, and language arts ,in a joint effort with the math and ela teachers, to prepare the students for the crct. My style of teaching is always dependent upon my students and where they are congnitively. Teaching is always keeping the best academic interest of your students in mind. Therefore, I almost, always try to provide students with

I love working with children of all ages. I understand that all children have a different way of learning, which does not make them "special", but unique as individuals. I am very patient, considerate, and understanding of each child's differences. My aim is to provide a safe atmosphere for each child so that they know they are not being judged for what they do not know, but are being praised for their uniqueness, perseverence, and innate intellegence. I believe that given the proper opportunities, every child can discover a love for learning, despite any setbacks they might have had previously. I also believe that one great teacher can make a difference in a child's life; I would love to be that teacher for as many students as I can. Since elementary school, I have known the value of a good education and I have always had a strong drive and love for learning. I have earned a bache

I graduated suma cum laude from Claflin University with a bachelor's degree in elementary education in 2004. From there I took a long term substitute position in an elementary school. During this time, I became a tutor in the school's EAA after school program where I worked exclusively with at-risk readers. Upon leaving that position, I was hired to teach a group of at-risk sixth graders. I taught ELA and a reading recovery class. I also tutored in the EAA after school program. I held this position for three years, and then I became the EAA coordinator. During this time I also received a Master's degree in education focused on divergent learning, or the different ways that students learn. Collectively, I have taught and tutored 5th grade math, 3rd grade all subjects, 6th grade all subjects, and 7th grade ELA. My philosophy on education is built around the belief that every child can lear
