A Little Bit About Me...

Completion of a BSBA degree in Management of Information Systems has given me valuable experience in a wide array of business functions as well as a team based and case driven experience over four years. The strongest of my skills are in reading, math, and technology suites such as all Microsoft Office products. I have taught, under minimal supervision by the standard teacher for one year on the fifth grade level. I have tutored ESL, "at-risk," and conflict prone students in english, math, reading, science, and civics. Tutoring was done at the fifth, seventh, eighth, tenth, and twelfth grade levels both in school, after school, and home-based settings. I am also confident in tutoring freshman and sophomore level students in supply chain management, networking, and systems analysis and design with UML modeling.
In many ways, learning can be customized to fit the individual inter ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of the University of Alabama, I have had several experiences within the classroom. Throughout my student teaching, I have worked with grades K, 2, 3, and 5. After graduating, I began substituting for all elementary grade levels. My substituting experiences led to a maternity leave position in a third grade classroom.
As a teacher, I have learned that not only can I teach the children, but they can teach me how to help them better understand. Each child has a different way of learning and it is my job to help them develop the skills that they need in order to process the information. Teaching is also about forming a trusting relationship with your students and letting them know that I am here to help them.

My experience in education is vast. I have earned a BA in elementary education. I have worked for eight years as a teacher in the education field. I also have a MAED in Early Childhood. I have also taught a Kindergarten class in church school for a year as well as serving as church school superintendent. I also have experience in working in a home preschool for one year during college.

The best way to describe my teaching style is flexible. I don't limit myself to one style because I've never taught one type of child. Students are diverse and as a teacher my style of teaching must also be diverse. I believe in modeling and hands-on learning experiences. Students need to see new concepts worked through correctly. They should then show understanding of mat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with kids to reach their fullest potential. I have high expectations because I believe all kids can learn. The role I like best is that of motivator and facilitator. My dream for students is that they become life-long lovers of learning...not just life-long learners. I attempt to model for them this love of learning by sharing my own experiences as a reader and writer. I encourage risk-taking and ownership. I do not believe in spoon feeding students; there is some "wailing and gnashing of teeth" at times,but students are always so proud of themselves when they reach their academic goals.
I have taught for over twenty years from 4th grade to 9th grade; for the last nineteen years, I have taught English at the middle school level. I began my career teaching 4th grade. I have also taught 5th grade and 6th grade English and Math. I am highly qualified in Reading ... read more

I graduated from Wake Forest in 2008, double-majoring in Mathematics and Physics. I also took some courses in the Education Department, and substitute taught for public high schools and middle schools in Winston-Salem, NC and Metairie, LA. I have worked in tutoring programs for elementary school children approximately twice a week for a total of twelve months. I have recently learned HTML, PHP, and Javascript programming languages, and am the designer and programmer for the Facebook application Harry Potter House Sort.
I think educators must take into account the different ways in which students learn. For instance, I've noticed that math students may have difficulty adding and subtracting fractions, but have no trouble whatsoever when I ask about dimes and quarters. If an instructor can build a bridge between new material and material the student has already mastered, t ... read more

I began to realize my love and aptitude for tutoring as a volunteer Japanese instructor for the Daikin home-stay program in 2006. The next two years I volunteered my time with Rosie's International Services tutoring Spanish. At the beginning of the Spring 2008 semester, the Head of the Foreign Language Department, Dr. Maier, submitted my name to a tutoring department at UAH, where I worked tutoring Spanish, Japanese, Latin, Chinese, and English as a Second Language until I graduated in Spring 2010. Although I do not have an education degree nor teaching certificate, I was hired as a part-time Spanish teacher at Austin High School 2010-2011, where I started an informal Japanese Culture Club.
The first thing I do with any new student is identify his or her learning style so that I may incorporate those specific strategies into my lesson for an effective and personalized learning expe ... read more

My teaching style depends entirely on the student. With patients and flexibility, a teacher can provide a student with the desire to learn on their own. With guidance, that student can remain motivated and willing to seek his or her own answers. It is important to me to impart that desire, because it aids the student in all further endeavors. I also enjoy playing to student’s strengths to motivate them. One example is a young boy who had difficulty counting past eleven. He enjoyed art, and drawing though, and through intertwining the two he grew to enjoy math as well.
History has taught me various skills and understandings that other fields may lack. Not only do I have excellent writing and reading skills, I am apt at thinking analytically. Also, my research skills are strong, regardless of the subject. I have also spent three years studying German in order to grasp the language an ... read more

I began tutoring at the age of 13. I was hired by the Los Angeles School District of California as an after school student tutor. Through out high school and college I was a member of several community service clubs that took part in community outreach tutoring in elementary, middle, and high schools. In 2001 I began working as an SAT tutor for the University of California, Irvine's Early Academic Outreach Program.

I am a firm believer that all children can learn. Each child needs to chance to find the best learning style for them. I believe that as a teacher it is my job to find the way each child learn and teach them to the best of my ability. I believe that with a little help each child will be able to reach their full potential. I believe that as an educator it is my job to mold and teach these young people.
I received a bachelor’s degree from Jacksonville State University in Elementary Education. I graduated in May of 2006. That August I began a leave in fourth grade at Douglas Elementary School. I taught first grade last school season at Grassy Elementary school. The two years prior to teaching at Grassy I taught at Sloman Primary School, also in first Grade.

More About This Tutor...

I hold a BS degree in elementary education. I have taught kindergarten, first grade and fifth grade. I have been a tutor for Sylvan Learning Centers. Since having children, I have worked part-time as a homebound teacher and as assistant director and curriculum coordinator at the Mother’s Day Out where my children attend. As a homebound teacher, I traveled throughout the county to work with students that were homebound for various reasons. I worked with students from K - 12th grade. I acted as a liaison between school and home. I would pick up the student’s assignments for his/her teachers and take it to the student’s home. It was a very rewarding job. I became close to many of my students and their families.
I have always loved working with children. I believe that children have different learning styles and it is an educators job to discover what learning style each stude ... read more
