Turning your weakness into your strength

I help guide the student along, having them discover much of the information in a trial and error fashion. I tend to use the questions they are struggling with the most, making similar examples, then walking them through these problems and breaking down the problems until the student understands the how the process works.
I have been tutoring for over seven years, starting with my peers in tenth grade. I have tutored a wide range of subjects, from Geometry through Calculus III, from general computer knowledge through utilizing the advanced functions of Microsoft Access. I have tutored people ranging from my peers to people three times my age, to as young as third graders. My motto has evolved into "Helping those who feel they can not be helped"

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an experienced teacher, tutor, and study skills coach who believes in the giftedness of each and every child and person. Every child is exceptional and deserves to know there are no failures. I've had the joy of working over 25 years in hospitals, public schools, private schools, home school programs and in private work with children and young adults. My experience over the years has taught me that the joy of teaching is skillfully, creatively and artistically/playfully opening potentials of learning with children, guiding them as they experience becoming more confident, trusting themselves, and appreciating their unique talents, strengths, and skills.
My basic teaching style is to get to know the child and his or her strengths, create a loving and safe space where he or she can experience self expression, exploration, making choices, problem solving, being aware of ... read more

I have experience in engineering which includes a solid understanding of math, calculus, statistics as well as physics. I have applied and practiced these skills in various business industries over my 12 year working career. I also have experience teaching at the under graduate level for the Measurement and Instrumentation course in the engineering program at Iowa State University.
My teaching style is to first teach the basic principles and then teach how they can be extended and used to solve problems. By helping students understand the fundamentals and problem solving techniques, they are able to think for themselves. This allows them to think more independently and solve a wider variety of problems without relying on memorization.

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently relocated to the Huntersville area. I recently graduated from UNCW with a degreee in Psychology with a focus on children. Since middle school, working with children has been my passion. I realized my dream after some of my cousins came over to America from the war torn country of Liberia and were having a very hard time adjusting. I was accepted to UNC Chapel Hill's Master's Program for Rehabilitation but declined after fearing it would take me down the path of working with the elderly instead of working with children. I have very extensive experience working with children at camps, researching at UNCW, tutoring foster children, and special needs with Lindley Habilitation services in Wilmington (mainly working with a client having Hunter's syndrome who was learning sign language, etc). I am both CPR and first aid certified. I have used all my knowledge of math (especially st ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for learning and knowledge. I also have a strong passion for reading, which comes across while in conversation with me. I believe that all children can learn, yet each student learns in his/her own different way. I am laid back, patient, and easy to talk to. I am also very flexible.
In my pursuit of knowledge and achievement, I have earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Political Science and Spanish. I also have a master's degree in Special Education with a specialization in Emotional and Behavioral Disorders. I also have a degree in Administration and I have served for six years as the head of the Reading/English Deparment in my previous middle school. I have also trained teachers how to teach reading. I have tutored for the past 2 years.

As a former special education teacher, I realize the importance of developing a relationship my students. The rapport I had with my students allowed me gain knowledge of their unique learning styles and designed my lesson plans to capture the needs of the child as an individual. Using this approach reinforces material that may be difficult to grasp by traditional teaching styles. I also use various teaching strategies such as mnemonics, manipulative and graphic organizers to help students retain important information.
Obtaining a quality education has been a goal of mine since I was undergrad. I have since developed that same passion for educating children. I have earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling and 18 Graduate hours in Special Education. I have taught in Charlotte, NC for 3 years. During my years of teaching I also tutored students ... read more

Sensitive to individual needs and learning styles, my educational approach involves an extensive selection of teaching modalities as well as organizational tools to enhance student success. My teaching style focuses on kinesthetic, inquiry-based activities which promote an active-learner environment. I believe that everyone can learn; by connecting new knowledge with previous knowledge and illustrating concepts with hands-on projects. While my student-based curriculum ensures that subject matter is presented correctly and completely, I also work with the student to create an individual framework of understanding of how each individual student learns. Empowering the student to organize, filter, and construct their own learning experience is a skill that can be applied to any course of study. I love to learn and I enjoy helping students find their own path to life long learning ... read more
