I was a teaching assistant last year at my old high school in Georgia. I've tutored many student and have helped them pass many subjects. Any subject that i am qualified for i do my very best to help student succeed n achieve there goals and pass the subjects that they are having the most difficulty with. My teaching style is different. I like to teach students in a way that they will understand it. Every student learns differently. I work at the pace that fits there need and teach at there pace. There is no rush.

I prefer an interactive approach to teaching. My goal is to help students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills by themselves, limiting their dependence on tutoring or other guidance. For younger children, I have experience teaching grammar in an innovative game-setting. I'm a recent college graduate with two Bachelors degrees from Salem State University: one in English/Writing and one in Liberal Studies with a concentration in Applied Social Ethics. In college, I have won two essay writing contests within the philosophy department, and placed third in a university creative writing competition. I recently completed an internship that used innovative techniques to teach grammar skills to college freshman. I have presented at two undergraduate philosophy conferences, in Salem, MA and in Forest Grove, Oregon. I have experience teaching large groups and one-on-one students,

I consider myself a 'people-person'. I coached youth sports for 10 years and enjoy working with kids. I am a relaxed, creative and centered teacher. Kids want to learn; in sports, academics and in life in general. They also want to have fun and be excited about it. I believe I make this possible. Our 5 year old is autistic and cognitively delayed. We have been successful at making learning fun, even for her. With my degree in communications I am very confident in my ability to explain clearly, ideas and lessons. My career has been in sales and design of educational interiors. This role of 20 years has drawn from and strengthened my writing and oral skills. I have four kids ages 8mo, 5, 7, 14. We home school our 14 year old. I am also very involved in our 7 year old's schoolwork and homework.

I recently graduated cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with two Bachelors of Science in Marine Geology and Maritime Law. I teach sailing and environmental education in the summers. This means very little however as I aspire, one day, to become a lighthouse keeper. Sadly, few can find such a position these days. I enjoy writing, science, mathematics, literature and most all music. When I taught sailing to young kids, I used to dress up like a pirate. I have lots of energy. I know I'm doing my job right when kids start laughing. When I taught to teenagers, I kept in mind my own experiences at that age. If I'm helping a student study hard on that big, important test that might have the ability to crush the student's soul - I bust out my acoustic guitar and sing about how It's The End of The World As We Know It (And This Test Means Very Little In The Long Run).

I am a firm believer in complete individualized, unique attention. It is critical to identify what motivates students and what techniques work best for them, and then work to enhance those skills and apply them to all subjects in order to be successful. By establishing the foundation for each students individual learning success, we can continue to build on those skills and progressively develop new skills and techniques to ensure that the student is confident in each subject he/she needs help with. It is my hope to not only strengthen the students in the subject I am assigned to tutor, but to establish skills that they can use beyond that one subject and into other subjects and in the classroom. As a college and high school football coach, I learned first-hand how to motivate and teach people the correct techniques for playing and helped them prepare for games. I learned to formulate pr

While living in San Antonio, Texas, I served my students as an adjunct instructor of American History at St. Mary’s University and San Antonio College. In 2006 I began facilitating courses online for Axia College of University of Phoenix and Excelsior College. While at Axia I instructed several different writing courses including Effective Persuasive Writing, Effective Essay Writing, Research Writing, and Written Communication. I can say with confidence that students at all of the institutions that I’ve had the privilege of working for benefitted from my knowledge and experience, and that same level of professionalism will be brought to yourself or your child. From my many years of experience I have learned that the most important aspect of teaching style is to stay in contact with each student. Educational psychologists have demonstrated that students of all ages have an inherent need

I very much have a "hands-on" teaching style. I am a visual learner myself, so my teaching style reflects that methodology. I explain the concept, demonstrate the process, reintroduce the steps and then allow my students to practice, practice, practice while offering guidance, suggestions, and positive reinforcement. I am very aware that all students are different. What I have come to learn is that with patience and the desire to truly want each child to succeed, all students can learn. I am a veteran so I pride myself on being organized and disciplined. I am also a volunteer in nursing homes so I consider myself to be compassionate, patient and understanding. I have been in Education for over 20 years. Most recently I have been a substitute teacher in all subject areas and grade levels. I have a strong Science background and I am a published author so I am proficient in Reading/Writin

I think students sometimes do need a little extra help when it comes to schoolwork. My own experience has been that when I talk over an assignment with someone I often perceive it in a way that I would not have otherwise. I consequently listen to my students and work to help them see problems in more than one way before giving up. I also understand that sometimes it takes a few tries before a child understands a lesson, and I will pursue extra repetitions to help a student better understand what is asked of them. I am available to help in any way I can and I work hard to ensure that each of my students improves with each session and feels more confident in their classes. At the University of Pittsburgh I learned many valuable skills that I use when tutoring. My Bachelor’s degree was a double major, both in French and in Linguistics. Consequently, I gained an understanding not only of lan

With normal class size groups... the goal is to provide a lesson with real educational content but to deliver it in a totally entertaining format... usually organizing the students into groups to a) provide support for the challenged and b) excitement for the total class as each group competes against the others. one-on-one teaching requires that the objective(s) be well established and then carefully focus on the individual student's best learning method, be it: verbal, written, reading, hands-on, or all of the above. In general a good teacher will be well planned and offers a delivery which teaches in concentrated bursts, with a brief break every 20 minutes.

I have worked with children of all ages from infancy to high school. I love being part of a child's cognitive development and helping them through their that process. I am compassionate, patient, kind, and understanding person, which I believe us very important traits for working with children. I personally believe that every child has their own way of learning wether it through play, or a song, or step by step, or watching, which is why I have no problem teaching in different ways to help out the child. As a school age counselor, I organized a variety of engaging activities for age appropriate learning, physical activities, and team building. I also incorporated games and activities that encouraged children to be cognitive, analytical, and mathematical thinkers. Furthermore, I have worked with a diverse of children of all ages as well as helped them with their homework. In addition, whe
