Learning is all about growing, exploring, making connections, and having fun!!

I believe in each and every child as an individual, they are not just a number, name, or student; they are individuals with personality and unique abilities to learn in their own way. No two people learn the exact same way, and I am a dedicated and patient person who loves working with children. As a person who has overcome a personal learning disability, I understand that it takes time to learn things and that at times to a child, it may be very frustrating and overwhelming when they feel that they are not on the same level as their peers. I strive to help meet the needs of each child in anyway I can to help them meet their full potential. As an Undergraduate student, I was engaged in a variety of eduactional settings from Substitute Teaching and working with students with disabilities to tutoring Kindergarteners in an Elementary school with reading, writing, and math. I have earned a b

I have a Bachelors degree in PSychology and a Masters degree in Social Work specializing in working with children/families. I have 13 years of experience working with children in the educational and home setting helping to mentor them by providing them with the tools necessary to be academically successful. I have not only counseled students in school but have assisted them in staying on tasks and completing assignments; as well as tutoring in reading, math, spelling, language arts, test taking, etc. I believe each student is different, therefore their learning style is different. Patience is of utmost importance in working with children, especially in the educational setting. Children need constant guidance and motivation and understanding in order to be academically successful; and success is measured differently for each student.

My first tutoring experience occurred during my attendance at South Georgia College (SGC). At SGC I was a tutor for Student Support Services and was responsible for providing academic tutoring to my peers in various academic subjects. After graduating from SGC, I continued to provide tutoring services with the Sylvan Learning Center and the America Reads program at the University of Georgia. Under the provisions outlined by these programs, I provided academic tutoring in reading and mathematics to students in elementary, middle, and high school. As a soon-to-be graduate student from the University of Georgia’s School Counseling program, I have received more than adequate training and have acquired years of experience that I feel will help me fulfill my life long aspiration of helping children reach their full academic potentials. As an educator, I recognize the importance of teaching

I enjoy teaching, it is part of what I was born to do. I enjoy teaching children and adults. I have always believed that all people can learn but at different levels and in different styles and the teacher just has to discover the "hook" that helps the student best in succeeding. I believe that it takes more than the teacher; it takes the student and the parents also. I do my best to try any tool available to enable my student's success. My track record speaks for itself. Ninety-five percent of my students have reached their goals and the other five percent shown improvement. I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education based on my own families background and my own. Because I was overlooked it gave me the desire to help those that seemed mostlikely to not succeed. I earned a bachelor degree in Early Childhood Education while working full time and being a full time

It is my belief that I do not truly master subjects until I can teach it to others. Thus, I view tutoring as an essential component of the learning process. With respect to my tenure as a tutor in the community of Tuskegee, Alabama and on-campus,this has certainly been the case. From helping to ease students of their confusion in the laboratory, to leading review sessions in front of spacious lecture halls, my experiences as a tutor have augmented my interpersonal as well as technical skills. The responsibilities inherent to tutoring have motivated me to enhance my knowledge, question my preconceptions, and strengthen my understanding of intergrated sciences and reading material. Tutoring has taught me that perseverance and patience are the keys to tackling tough situations, and I try to pass that along to others. I am very versatile when it comes to teaching various age groups. I try to
