Middle School Literature Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Savannah, GA

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 passage of Shakespeare or see the beauty behind Wordsworth's lines. English, particularly writing, is something I am very passionate about, and I love being able to help others in any way that I can in that field. I am quite flexible. I think every person learns differently and no singular method should be applied to wh

I am a teen girl that makes straight A's in school. I started tutoring in 3rd grade by tutoring my niece that was currently in 2nd grade. I have been tutoring many people since then and have helped them succeed many things. Hopefully I can do the same with your child. If any other help is needed, I would be happy to do so too.

I have been tutoring ever since elementary school. Since I was the only one that knew how to read, I had to assist in the others' learning of Phonetic sounds. I've also tutored fellow classmates in middle school, high school, and college. If I don't know how to approach a certain topic, I ask for the assistance of some of my former professors because they know I'm trying to help other students. I try to be really patient because I know some subjects aren't very logical to some students.

I have worked with many children and adolescents, for the past 8 years, mentoring and tutoring. I enjoy working with our youth and feel that education is very important, especially in today's society. I understand that each individual learns differently, and that it is important to cater to each individual's needs. I also feel that learning can be fun, as well. I took advantage of opportunities (to help further my education) that I was given, when I was younger, and feel that it is important to give back.

I graduated with a double major from Fairfield University where I was involved with volunteer groups that tutored middle school aged children from surrounding areas. Over the years I have also spent time as a nanny and have been in charge of homework and school projects. I am confident that my nurturing and energetic personality is the perfect combination to engage children to want to excel. I truly enjoy working with children and would love to go back to school and obtain my Masters in education. I feel that each child has their own way of connecting to education and it's a magic moment when you, the teacher, find and help them utilize that connection. I am calm and patient, bubbly and outgoing, creative and responsible. Most importantly, I love helping people and being an individual that can make a difference.

I have a very strong interest in pursuing a teaching career. The opportunity to teach and inspire students is an exciting prospect that I feel fully able to undertake. With a Bachelor of Arts degree in English, a Temporary Teaching Certificate in grades 6-12, and experience working at middle and high school after school programs, as well as other activities outside of the traditional classroom, I have a diverse background with much to offer. I have had the opportunity to observe a variety of teaching styles and widely varying curricula and philosophies. I have benefited from the advice of teachers, learning specialists, and administrators in very different classroom environments. Aware that students respond best in a multitude of different settings, I have learned how to incorporate a variety of approaches into my teaching: personal reflective and writing time, collaborative group work i

I do enjoy helping students with their problems. I have a technique of visualization. for example, which is the first example I use. I tell the student to think of a tree. in the seconds you think of a tree, you don't think of just the tree. you think of the roots, the trunk, the limbs, the branches, the leaves. then you think of whats going on in the tree, right down to the point of the tree taking in carbon dioxide and giving off oxygen and water. Why is the tree giving off water. most people do not know that the tree is making water because it is attaching hydrogen to the oxygen to get rid of the hydrogen, acid. I can apply this same visualization to almost anything. Hey there. I am a medical school drop out. I have my bachelors in biology, with minors in botany, chemistry and economics.

I graduated with a Bachelors degree in English from the University of South Carolina. Throughout my studies, I explored various literature and produced many pieces of writing, both analysis and creative. After moving back to Atlanta, I was a Reading and Writing teacher at a successful education center in Marietta, Georgia. While being an instructor at the tutoring center, I had the opportunity to teach children of all ages. My role at the tutoring center led me to my pursuit of a M.A.T. in Secondary English at Mercer University in Atlanta, Georgia. I will graduate from Mercer in December 2009. During my time as a graduate student at Mercer, I had many opportunities to participate in classroom instruction and classroom management. I believe that a teacher should teach because he or she possesses a quest for learning, a passion for a particular subject, and is driven by a true calling

I am a happy, outgoing, energetic, creative, and passionate individual comfortable in any environment, anytime, anyplace, and am able to talk to anyone about virtually anything. Teaching is in my blood; a passion handed down from my educator parents who taught English, History and Economics. While my brother went on to teach Social Studies, I resisted the family path. However, as I grew older, I discovered the great fulfillment gained by watching others learn and grow through non-traditional capacities. While everyone absorbs knowledge at different speeds and in different ways, all students, regardless of subject matter, need specialized attention to truly excel. I relish working with those who wish to discover the best in themselves. I stumbled upon the joy of teaching as I helped others learn to dive recreationally in my early 20’s. When I began my real estate career, I worked pr

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 with four different preps, including traditional, accelerated, AP, and creative writing English classes. 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 wonderf
