A Little Bit About Me...

I'm a recent graduate of Rust College. During my years at college I tutored in subjects as biology, basic math, college algebra,English literature, and also was a co-judge for a local junior high science fair. During the summer of 2009, I did my internship with the Ronald E. McNair program at the University of Mississippi. This program focused mainly on research based studies with a chosen graduate professor.
I'm an assertive motivator. Learning should not be repulsive, children love to learn by examples that they can relate to. I find the opportunity to combine the likes and dislikes of the student and mold them into a constructive solution. Using metaphors and similes are more of my specialties. The style is strict, but the concepts are easier. When the task is completed, the student will say I was tough but with a caring aftereffect.

I have many skills that includes typing, office work, math, term papers, and some Spanish. With the last ten years I have tutored family members and friends because I thrive to see others succeed and plan to open my own tutoring center once my degree are complete.

More About This Tutor...

I believe all children are born with the same amount of human potential. However, I’m disheartened by what I’ve witnessed in Mississippi’s public schools: that many children are failing to read at grade level. They are often “left behind.” My approach to teaching is driven by my belief that all children can learn if given the cognitive stimulation coupled with a nurturing, learning environment. I know that children are eager to know, understand, and discern. I believe teachers should not disseminate facts; instead they should cultivate the desire for knowledge. Nearly everyone who meets me tell me I should be a teacher. I look forward to the day when I am able to teach my own children. Until that day comes, I would like to teach others.
My diverse work experiences in the non-profit sector have provided practical, real-world training in helping students reach their full academic pot ... read more

Since my graduation from Ole Miss in 1985, I have had the delightful experience of teaching children from all walks of MS. The children of MS have a thirst for knowledge that is rarely discussed in the media. Our children want to learn! I've instructed every grade level from K-8, inclusive, tutored Pre-Alg,Alg I, and admin correspondence courses for students who needed a one-on-one teacher. I obtained my Masters from Mississippi State in 2008. I have experience in the diverse ideologies presented in the educational programs of two of the largest universities in MS. Currently, I am enrolled in undergraduate math and English classes to secure additional course hours so that I may hone my skills in this every changing technical world!

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe education provides students the opportunity to move forward in society as confident and knowledgeable citizens. It is what I think to be one of the most important elements of an individual's growth and development, and it is so vital that educators create innovative ways to help children become successful citizens in society. My primary focus in education is student success. In order for students to succeed in school teachers must first provide a safe place where students are actively engaged in learning. When students are engaged in the learning process they are motivated to learn and succeed in school.
