A Little Bit About Me...

I am adamant to maintain a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a B.A. degree in history and an M.A. in secondary education with a concentration in social studies. This experience gives me a broad range of knowledge in a number of subjects. My college preparation has provided me with extensive skills in reading and writing so I can pass that knowledge on to my students.
I prefer to use a hands on approach to education. I like to have the kids get engrossed in the subject matter by reading aloud and taking part in discussion sessions. It is my belief that all children have the capacity to succeed in school with the proper tools. The tools that I provide are first and foremost, respecting the students without any bias. Secondly, I have worked with and have the capability of working with children of all ages. This allows me to relate to and effectively educate all stu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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

My passion is to reach children where they are providing tools for them to be more creative and challenged. I have spent most of my time working in the private sector.

One year prior to my doctoral degree I began teaching at the University level. At the same time I was teaching as a substitute at the elementary, middle school, and high school level, while acting as Superintendent of the preschool education program at our church. Throughout my career I have chosen to work with organizations focused on collaborative scientific efforts across disciplines to discover cures for diseases, to understand the mechanisms behind those diseases in order to improve health and prevent disease, and that allowed me to continue teaching. My most recent position allowed me to accomplish all of these. In addition, I have many years of coaching in sports to various age groups and mentoring with middle and high school students.
My teaching style is diverse and dependent on the group with which I am working. I believe that different people learn in different ways, ... read more

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.

More About This Tutor...

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.
Graduating from a liberal arts college, I had the benefit of studying v ... read more

My method of teaching varies with the subject. A spanish tutor and a chemistry tutor can go about things quite differently. I like leading students to find answers on their own so that they understand the paths they are taking. That method is especially helpful in hard sciences and math. In the liberal arts (poli-sci, literature, religion, philosophy, etc.) I like to work in the Socratic method. I'll challenge the students on topics and concepts with questions that need some thought. I want them to discuss issues with me, and that allows me to help expand their understanding and discover weak points in their knowledge.
Since high school I've been working with my peers to help clarify subject matter, as that was my favorite method of study. In college I tutored under-classmen in Spanish, chemistry, and political science. Since graduating, I've worked with college freshmen as a writ ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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. I have worked in government, education, and business giving me a solid foundation in subjects such as history, government, and leadership. The dissertation research I conducted and the market research I managed at J.D. Power and Associates has also provided me with a strong background in statistics. I have tutored students in reading, writing, math, study skills, and literature.
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 the ... read more
