I have a BS in Elementary Education and a MAEd in Curriculum & Technology. I am a K-6 certified teacher in North Carolina, and I have taught second, third, and sixth grade. In sixth grade I specifically taught mathematics. I also have experience as a teacher assistant in first and fourth grade. I have three years of experience teaching summer school to at-risk students, and I have tutored privately for four years. I am highly trained in mathematics, literacy, and writing instruction.
My philosphy of education is that children learn through real-world experiences and tapping into their interests will foster their educational development. Another key factor in helping students achieve academic success is assessment and observation of individual learning styles and multiple intelligences. Honing those positive features in students will inspire and motivate their learning to new levels ... read more

I love working one-on-one or in small groups. I am very encouraging and understand that each student has his or her own learning style. I am adaptive to these varying needs. I believe in positive reinforcement. I never get frustrated with a student and will try different methods until I find one that works with each particular student. I understand that my work not only helps a student to understand the subject, but also helps with the student's feeling of confidence and self-worth.

A Little Bit About Me...

Earning a degree in Communications accelerated my skills in writing through Journalism, research papers and Rhetorical studies. Additionally, writing is something I enjoy and practice on a daily basis. It has been a number of years since I have tutored a child however, I would like to incorporate my vocational experience as well as my collegiate studies into my teaching practices.
I would love the opportunity to teach grade school children. It was during my formidable years that I can recall a young lady who impacted my education in a very significant way. Additionally, I also have very fond memories of several children who I mentored through tutoring. My innate enthusiastic nature has facilitated a strong desire with the children to participate in the learning process in many unique ways. I gain tremendous joy and satisfaction through observing this process.

A Little Bit About Me...

Through my experience working with students, especially as a substitute teacher, I have learned that each student has unique and individual learning needs. Some students are able to retain and comprehend information when presented orally; others are visual learners, while some students work better by learning through example. My goal is to discover what learning style best meets the needs of each student and then utilize the appropriate techniques to reach the highest possible success rate. I am a patient teacher who understands the importance of consistency while remaining flexible. I also understand how frustrating learning can be to struggling students and try to make learning fun and applicable to everyday life. Students need to know that others believe in their success in order for them to achieve success.

While working with students at the UNC Hospital School in Chapel Hill, I discovered a passion for helping the non-traditional student to achieve success in the traditional classroom setting. I found that patience was most important, but also by making the material relevant for the students, they were able to reach an understanding of the material. I have also found that allowing students to find and utilize their strengths is vital, which is why I believe in instruction through the multiple intelligences. Every student is intelligent in his or her own way, and it is my goal to help them use that intelligence in all their endeavors.
I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and their North Carolina Teaching Fellows Program. In the Teaching Fellows Program, I was able to interact with students in a variety of settings, including one-on-one and in the clas ... read more

My paid professional teaching experince includes one year working as a Special Education Paraprofessional for 2-4 grade stundents classified with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders. My undergraduate degree from Valdosta State University was in music education.
While some teachers favor a direct instruction approach, I try to tailor my instruction to the growing and diverse needs of each student. Some are more auditory learners than others, therefore, for those you would need a lot of teaching by rote, i.e "do as I do", so to speak.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe students have the potential to master anything they find interesting. It is my job, as a tutor, to engage each student in a way that motivates them and helps them believe in themselves. I look for experiences in each student's life to help them connect with the learning process. As I teach, I look for ways to help students develop many skills and talents. I have spent many years researching, writing, and presenting Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. I model my teaching style in a way that reflects my student's development across all of the intelligences.
In addition to earning an MBA and a BA in Political Science, I have just completed my Doctorate in Education. I have extensive writing, grammar, and reading comprehension skills from writing and researching my dissertation and numerous research papers.

More About This Tutor...

I have learned many different theories and ways of teaching, most of which I incorporate in my style of teaching. The ones I really believe in and use most are using a hands on approach using the ideas of inquiry and real life experiences in order to make learning the most meaningful and interesting. All children are different therefore individualized programs are needed in order for the child to succeed. I also believe that children learn both socially and indiviually and that it is important for children to learn in many different ways. To see that I have made a difference in a childs life or to hear them talk about something they learned from me, is not only exciting but makes me want to make a difference in as many children's lives as I can.
I have participated in two summer school programs (2nd and 4th grade) in NYC that helped prepare students to retake state tests in the are ... read more
