My teaching style consists of hands on application and converting math into everday language. Each student must be able to complete assigned math problems as well as explain how and why they chose their math operations. My teaching style for Reading consists of phonics, prefixes, suffixes, context clues, grammar strategies and tips. Each student must be able to summarize what they read, identify main idea, identify main character, and explain what they liked about it and what they didn't. Additionally each student will receive short daily assignments to reinforce building skills to improve knowledge and study skills. I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I began

I am a very logical and result oriented person. If you are interested in seeing better results from the scores, tests and believe in making rapid change in your thought process, you may want to try me. I believe learning should be fun and not all work. Not all answers will be shortcuts that would involve lot of memorizing, but very systematic and logical way of approaching a problem for the student to gain interest and at the same time be able to address any problem out of the box. I do understand that not all students are the same and each one of them would require different teaching model to reach eventually to the same high levels. I have given several exams in and out of the country and there are definite tips that can help the student to achieve better results with the same knowledge level. I have scored over 95 percentiles in almost all the exams that I gave, some times wi

To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning. I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College.

In addition to my academic and arts connection, I work with the concept of "learning how to learn". Essentially each child that I tutor I endeavor to assist them in learning what type of learning style that he or she possesses. Every person uses the mind through the senses in a unique way. My goal is provide an opportunity for discovery of how to think by using the "whole mind". Once this is understood, learning then becomes an enjoyable pursuit. As a professional educator, I strive for "excellence without compromise". I believe that learning is about opening each person toward recognizing the potential within, and then taking steps to actualize that potential. My ability seems to be that of communicating and inspiring others to grow. I have combined my academic background with my other passions, music and writing. Thus I bring the outlook and freshness of a lifelong learner to my te

Because I believe in the success of all students regardless of present levels, my students have had significant success in all areas and have gained positive feelings and confidence in themselves as life-long learners. I love children and want to impart to them a desire to keep striving for the best. It is important to try different methods and strategies to reach the needs of each individual child. Instruction must be differentiated and made enjoyable to tap into students' creativity and interests. All Students Are Learners and Are Special! As a public school teacher for approximately 20 years+, my experiences have been very extensive.

Before coming to Emory, I grew up in a struggling Memphis public school system. Although I was lucky enough to have plenty of resources, support, and guidance to enable me to excel, I knew many students did not have the same fortune. I began informally tutoring the ACT and SAT in high school. In college, I was a member of 'Emory READ' (through Emory's volunteer agency) tutoring at an inner city elementary school and AmeriCorps Jumpstart tutoring at a pre-school. Working with younger underprivileged children presented a welcome challenge, for in addition to mastering specific concepts I enjoyed the emphasis on developing language, literary and social skills. In college, my neuroscience major has often taken me out of my comfort zone and pushed me intellectually; I have received tutoring every step of the way. My college experience in addition to tutoring students in pre-school, element

I have over 11 years of experience providing in home tutoring to individual high school, elementary school, and middle school students as well as adults for test preparation as well as for academic subject preparation. I have also had 6 years of teaching French in public school as well as having developed my own SAT curriculum and program. I am deeply passionate about having students of all learning abilities and levels succeed and am interested in developing ways to help each student showcase his or her own individual talents. I enjoy teaching students of all ages, from elementary through adults, and in all subjects. I find an interactive, Socratic teaching style in which I encourage the student to discover the answers on their own to understand why something works the way it does is a very effective approach for me rather than just lecturing, particularly for younger learners.

Teaching children and teenagers is a passion for me. It gives me an opportunity to enrich their theoretical and practical knowledge, by transferring my experiences. I am down to earth, patient and a good listener. I tend to anticipate the needs of students, in order to efficiently respond to their immediate issues. I see each session as a new experience, a new challenge and an opportunity for sharing my knowledge. My methodology is to identify student's specific needs in a moment, gather all information related to the subject, and then transmit the most relevant parts to the student. Afterwards I always evaluate effectiveness of my tutoring session. I have been working in the Accounting field for the past 10 years. I have been tutoring Accounting, Math and French language since college, and recently included tutoring in English reading and writing. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and skil

Children, now young adults of my generation, were often labeled the children of “Generation X,” but today many have labeled our youth as the children of “Generation Y.” Why have our children seemed to have given up? Why do our children so often succumb to the “street life?” Why is it that our children do not value education as they once did in the past? These questions are questions that, as educators, we must be able to identify and answer to break the cycle of a generation of children with little hope and no future. The youth of today are in dire need of leadership. I have chosen a career path in education to help fill the breach within the minds and lives of our youth. I have acquired and was blessed with an inert quality to lead. I believe that I would be an effective and positive example in the lives of these students. I have a great deal of patience and concern for the youth of

I enjoy teaching children and building confidence in their abilities. I believe that the best teacher is one who helps a child learn how to learn. This will build confidence in the child's ability to learn different subjects and enable a passion for learning. Seeing this passion come forward in my students is my main motivation. For the last six years of my academic career, I have been driven to achieve a high level of excellence. I have completed a bachelors' and a Masters' in Mechanical Engineering. Math and Science have been very important in achievements of my academic goals. Having worked for various industries both within and outside Georgia Tech have helped me demonstrate and improve my communication skills. I have also tutored incoming freshman from Georgia Tech in Math, Physics and Chemistry with great success.
