A Little Bit About Me...

Each person learns differently. It is a primary responsibility of an instructor to find a method that will resonate and stick with the student to ensure success. Any student should be given every opportunity to find that internal gratification that only comes with mastery over a particular obstacle. That method of accomplishment, in turn, becomes habit forming. And as an instructor, little compares with the feeling when an idea takes root within a student.
I have extensive experience in academic work, specifically in the areas of math and science. In earning both a BS and MS in Materials Science and Engineering, I not only developed an understanding of mathematical and scientific principles, but I learned how to work and communicate in groups to further common interests. As a graduate student at the University of Washington, I served as a teaching assistant, leading both recitatio ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My beliefs are that all children can learn, however, they must learn at their own pace and in their own way. This may mean being extremely patient and empathetic, not sympathetic, to their needs and using their strengths to build confidence while using their weaknesses to set goals. Blooms taxonomy is essential to use for setting standards and assessment of student learning. I apply this to my teaching methods as much as possible along with using hands on experiences to build student interest. I am available evenings and weekends for tutoring. I am very patient and easy going but firm. I hope to provide a comfortable tutoring session in which the student gains confidence in order to succeed in the future!

I have worked with students in all levels of elementary school through teaching as well as during my college year. Specifically I have been in classrooms of pre-k, kindergarten, third grade, fourth grade, and fifth grade. I find the enthusiasm and thinking of students in upper levels very intriguing. I graduated from Clemson University with a BA in Elementary Education in 2007. Upon graduating I have been in elementary classrooms as a teacher for three years. I enjoy working with children one on one. Allowing me to better understand their reasoning and thinking.
In my experiences I have found that children learn in many different ways. Based on this I feel that individualized attention to each student makes them more successful in school, as well as, in many life experiences. Children learn by doing. With this in mind I find the best teaching style for each child. ... read more

I truly believe that every student has the opportunity to perform well academically. While school comes naturally to some, others need someone to come beside them to help them learn. The best educators create an environment where students discover and explore. I will strive to create that environment by asking questions that allow students to come to answers for themselves. I also have the personal qualities that are necessary to tutor successfully. I understand how frustrating struggling academically can be. I can be patient empathize with students. I love seeing individuals succeed. Learning not only provides students with knowledge, but also can provide the self-confidence that will allow them to be successful in life.

As a high school junior, I was selected to attend the prestigious NC School of Science and Mathematics (NCSSM). Afterward, I graduated early from UNC-Chapel Hill, receiving a BA in English with a minor concentration in mathematics. I pursued a career in information technology, most recently running Gap Inc.'s European operations. Last year, I left the corporate world to write a novel, which I completed in June 2005. Currently, I work part-time in the Swain County School's marketing department and write freelance. I was also recently awarded NCSSM's 2005 Service Award for volunteerism. When time has allowed, I have enjoyed tutoring at these levels (all subjects) through Communities in Schools and privately.

I believe that in order to teach you must be able to understand learning styles of each individual child and approach them on a case by case basis. With encouragement, commitment and proper technique I can make a significant contribution to a child's education. I feel that it is very important to help a child understand that learning is a privilege and will benefit them throughout their lives. I am confident that I can help my students discover their full potential and experience a true sense of fulfillment in doing so.

A Little Bit About Me...

I absolutely enjoy working with students of all ages. I place a high value on education because there is no replacement for this key component in a student’s quest for success. I have several years experience as a volunteer coach and understand all too well the delicate balance that exists between teaching, encouragement and constructive analysis. I am a hands-on teacher and firmly believe that clear instructions unified with connected repetition are vital for material comprehension. All students can not only meet, but exceed their academic expectations when given the right tools combined with positive reinforcement

I believe that true education requires your child to synthesize the material, not merely memorize answers. As your child's tutor I will seek to provide them guidance and instruction to help them solve problems and learn material on their own. Not only will your child learn the material, but my goal is to teach them how to learn so that they can achieve success not only with a tutor now, but long into the future.
I believe education is primarily about learning, not merely making a grade. As I applied this philosophy in college, I realized that where true learning occurs good grades follow. I completed a bachelor's in accounting summa cum laude in 2009. In addition to my major focus in finance and business, I completed a minor in History and took an extensive number of English courses as well. The broad liberal arts framework for my college curriculum taught me not only specific subj ... read more

I love working with people. Getting to know the people you work with is truely the first step to help any educational situation become successful. As I described above, I have many experiences to share from my 13 years of teaching. I am a very open and flexible educator that uses various resources in order to help my students become and feel successful with challenges. However, everyday I continue to learn something new from my students just as they have learned from me.

My freshman year at Clemson I tutored 7th graders in math. I was also a tutor in high school for a k-6 school for children with low-income families. It has always been a passion of mine to help others with grasping a subject.
My favorite part of tutoring is working with children who are frustrated with a subject and being able to break it down and teach it to them in a way that they can relate to. Also, the self-confidence the student gets that comes from being prepared for a test is very important.

I am a mother of 3 children who are all very successful students. My eldest will graduate a semester early from college this month. My middle child is a junior in college and my youngest child is a senior in high school who will be entering college next fall. I speak of my children because I have helped them whenever they have had problems with their studies. When my older two were in elementary school, I was a coach for their Odyssey of the Mind teams. I pride myself on my understanding of grammar and am very good with math as well. I tutored elementary school students as a part-time job in college and later tutored students in my son's class.
I understand that any child can run into problems with schoolwork. I try to find out why the child is having a problem before trying to help them. Did he miss something and fall behind? Is she simply bored with the subject? The approa ... read more
