English Instructor- GED Teacher to help you suceed

I have taught middle grades from 1998-2003. I have taught special education to special adults from 2003-2011. In this last teaching job, I had a few individuals who I helped with some classes of the GED through the Rankin County Schools. I love teaching kids and adults and love working to see each one of them grow in their own way. Each person learns in a different way and it takes special people to work with them.

IMPROVE READING AND WRITING SCORES IN CLASS AND ON THE ACT.

I have been an AP Literature and Composition teacher as well as Twelfth grade Language Arts instructor for over 16 years. I am acutely aware of the needs of students as it relates to mastering reading and writing skills. I have also taught an ACT Prep course for the past 5 years after extensive training at workshops and conferences. I know the importance of identifying weaknesses in reading, writing, and on standardized tests such as the ACT and directing my instruction to those weaknesses. I am especially skilled at targeting writing weaknesses as it relates to both rhetoric and mechanics as I am a practicing writer myself. Though reading ability is gained with much practice, there are practice methods to increase speed and cognition. I differentiate my instruction both in the classroom and individually to work at all writing and reading levels so that maximum benefit is achieved by the ... read more

Certified English Teacher looking to help!

I have taught a mixture of 9th, 10th, and 11th grade English over the past 4 years. Teaching is a second career for me and is something that I absolutely love! Being able to help children read, comprehend, and prepare their minds for the future is so rewarding. Much of my experience is in the state tested area of English, focusing heavily on grammar and reading comprehension. Reading is a huge past-time of mine and something that I heavily incorporate into my classroom.

Grammar is one of my top subjects!

The child chooses the style. What I mean by this is that every child is different and every one of them learn differently. Teaching on a more personal level is how to aid the best results.
My experience started in my high school years helping my brother and sisters with homework while our mom was working. Presently I am employed at a day care center/ school, were everyday is spent engaged with the kids and their educational needs. I love interacting with the children at work so much so, that the idea of taking on tutoring sounds more so like a new hobby.

Experienced and Creative Tutor in Math, Science, & ACT prep

I've been a tutor for the past 8 years. I started tutoring/teaching as a college student, and I've loved every moment. It's so rewarding to see a student's growth in a subject area. I've provided Praxis and ACT prep to students as well as provided help for subject are state tests such as Biology and U.S. History. I love all math and science related subjects and excel at helping students relate to them.
I prefer inquiry based learning in which I utilize the facilitator and "personal model" methods to help students improve their independence, increase their confidence to explore subjects independently, and show them first hand how to comprehend concepts

When I have "tutored" fellow colleagues and students in the past, I have learned that one must be creative in their teaching so that every person can learn in their own way. Creativity is the key to helping a person understand, even playful games have their place in teaching. I have always been a team player and have excellent interpersonal skills. Also, I will be taking the Praxis I tomorrow in preparation of teaching in the fall. *(In the above question on years of experience, the "20" years are of teaching/tutoring of colleagues and fellow students, not tutoring in a formal sense.)
Through several college degrees, I have taken extra courses in English; I have enjoyed learning the correct way of writing, proper grammar usage, and how sentences are successfully crafted. The area of "words" fascinate me, and I have continued improving my knowledge of the English language over ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am always someone who finishes what he starts. Since 1995, I always wanted to be an accountant as well as becoming certified CPA. I have 2 years experience in auditing from bankplus, and a year with the Ms Emergency Management Agency. I also have experience as a financial analyst.
During the years of 1998 through 2000, I volunteered to help tutor students in subjects from math and science. My goal in teaching was to teach how to grasp the information and make to where they can put pieces together and solve/answer any questions in their lessons. I was a tutor in MSU helping teach the basic accounting skills to non-accounting majors.
