Experienced Math Tutor

I have been tutoring math for the past 2 years, focusing primarily on high school math. I have tutored students taking Georgia's Math 1, 2, and 3 courses (equivalent to Algebra I,II, and III, Geometry, some Trig and some Statistics). I have also assisted students with improving their SAT scores and do SAT tutoring through a private company. I have helped adults prepare to take their GED Math Exam and other college entrance exams. I am looking to widen my client base and look forward to new tutoring opportunities on TutorSelect!

My comments on tutoring Composition : I have had three short stories published. I enjoy helping students with creative writing as well as with essays related to the arts or to literature. I can also help students develop their own style of writing.

I have been teaching French to English-speaking people living in France since 1979. I have also been teaching English as a Second Language to French adults in a business environment and to high school/college students as well. I particularly enjoy tutoring reading and spelling to children K-12th Grade. However, since I have been residing in France for over 35 years, my speciality is also ESL and French to non-French speakers. My undergraduate degree was obtained at Agnes Scott College (Decatur, GA) and I went to France for my Junior Year Abroad. I am now moving back to the States (Savannah).
I teach all levels in ESL and French. My teaching methods depend greatly on the students as every student has his or her own learning style! I am very patient with young children as I have had four children myself.

It takes two to tutor...and tango!

I am quite flexible. I think every person learns differently and no singular method should be applied to when it comes to tutoring; this is not an assembly line. I would take things on a case by case basis and adapt as needed, ensuring the student is getting the best possible help that I can offer him or her.
I am an English major at the University of South Carolina Beaufort in my final semester of study and will be graduating in December with a BA and a concentration in writing. Though I have never formally been a tutor, I have always been the person that my friends have gone to for help with composing papers, interpreting and analyzing passages of literature, and general study skills for how to improve their writing and/or reading abilities. I am a member of my university's varsity softball team, and I have helped a lot of my teammates on long bus rides to games delve into a pass ... read more

New college graduate with teaching experience

I have experience in one-on-one teaching, but feel comfortable with no more than five students at a time.
I have 1.5 years of volunteer experience in teaching adult literacy. In this experience I have taught the alphabet, study/homework skills, basic consonant and vowel sounds, rules to the English language, and reading and writing.

Love to Teach

I have always believed in "connecting the dots." Knowledge and learning cannot be strictly confined to subject-area teaching. For example, many academic subjects can be studied while one writes, makes art, to creates stories, practices problem solving, or invents solutions to problems we are facing in this modern age. Listening to students and providing opportunities for them to demonstrate knowledge is very important. I never want learning to bore a student. Once understanding is achieved, that knowledge should be put to use and new challenges should be introduced.
I began teaching Art to middle school students within the public school system in 1989. I began working with elementary grades in 1991. I began to pursue a master's degree in Education in 2007 through the University of Phoenix (UoP). The online experience and consistent communication with my instructors and classmates ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught 8th through 10th grade at a Christian School in Ludowici. I taught every subject, but never a math course higher then Algebra 1.
I am a firm believer that the best way to learn varies from subject to subject. When I taught math my view was that the best way to teach was to break everything down into a step by step process and have the students memorize the process. Most other subjects can be learned through repitition, but math requires everything to be broken down.

More About This Tutor...

I believe the teaching world is so wonderful because the process of learning is never-ending, for the teacher and the student. Teachers and students gain information from each other and therefore make the learning process meaningful and relateable. I believe strongly that adapting lessons to students' lives is the best way for students to better understand and discover not only the lesson taught, but also their world. A wonderful teacher will put all the professionalism, heart, and reflection they can into their students.
I recently graduated from Ohio University with a BS in English Education in March of 2010. My last day of student teaching, I received an offer to teach at a Career and Technical school for a long-term Language Arts position for ten weeks. I taught six different eleventh and twelfth grade classes with two preps. During my student teaching I taught twelfth grade wi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style adapts to the individual needs/understanding of the student. I ensure the student has a fundamental understanding of the underlying concepts, which enables them to better understand a concept's application.
I have just graduated from Savannah State University with a BBA Accounting. I graduated at the top of my class, valedictorian! My GPA is 3.96 on a 4.0 scale, one B!!. I informally tutored my classmates in several subject matters including accounting, math, and general business subjects.

I first started to study music when I was 11 years old. I grew a love for the clarinet and played for many years in middle school and high school. In college, I majored in clarinet and also studied all wind/percussion instruments as well as piano. I obtained my BA instrumental teaching degree (K-12) through Western Carolina University in June of 2003. Through the years, I have had the privilage and pleasure of teaching band in a classroom setting, marching band, and private lessons.
The reason I became a teacher was to transfer my love of music to my students and also to see the joy of their successes. There is nothing like seeing the smile of success on a students face. I care greatly for all students that I have taught and will teach.

I am a recently retired business executive who started his career as a school teacher. I taught English Language and Literature before embarking on a career in business. When working for three (3) blue-chip companies, I also taught Business Writing and Negotiations to sales and engineering professionals. I mentored executives with high potential to grow and excel during my watch. I also motivated difficult and “low achievers” to maximize their contribution. I was also keynote speaker to seniors in Michigan and Ohio. I possess two bachelor degrees (English and Business Education) and a Masters in Management.

As a Magna Cum Laude graduate from Claflin University, I have just completed a bachelor's degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I have experience with tutoring my peers in mathematics, biology, and chemistry. In addition, I have served as an English tutor for two years at the Claflin University Writing Center.
My description of teaching involves directly explaining the material to the student and then have the student to teach me the subject or concept that was just learned. This insures that the student fully understands the concept, thus the concept can be applied to problem solving. In addition, I like to actually sit down with the student and go over the assigned or completed work to make sure that the student is understanding and applying the material correctly.
