My comments on tutoring Desktop Publishing : I have worked with publishing programs since 1990 with large publishing companies.

I work normally in groups to mentor staff/clients or students to understand the importance of great design through typography and quality design using basic programs like pagemaker through to InDesign. Individual one-on-one is preferable as I can dedicate my time to bring out the creative expressions. Professional design can make the difference by setting you apart from the competition. I like to give a student the edge with eye-catching graphics and make a statement about that will get them attention
I am a strong creative, strategic and conceptual thinker with a deep understanding of the digital space and a genuine love for design and technology. As the Creative and Marketing Director I have successfully directed creative and technical teams, client relationships and new business opportunities. I enjoy leading and inspiring as much as I do rolling my sleeves up and getting th ... read more

Learn real problem-solving from real-world experience.

I consider myself more of a facilitator than a dictator but I do expect my students to show initiative. My goal is for every student to succeed.
I have historically been a sketch artist. This talent led to me into graphic design for advertising. I later majored in advertising and worked several internships and practicums with a variety of ad agencies and publication, including Southern Living. Over half of my 24-year is comprised of creative management positions. Recently, I decided to get back into higher education to earn my Masters degree in graphic design.

My comments on tutoring Desktop Publishing : Creating publications for print or for online delivery using InDesign or Publisher

I have been in the field of education for 10+ years. I taught Computer Science courses that included Web Design and New Media, Desktop Publishing and Computer Graphics. I like building my own computer since the ones I see on the retail are not powerful enough for my own purposes. I have designed websites and managed the websites including the one of the school where I previously worked. Managing it means doing some tweaking of the HTML codes and the CSS. I do a lot of Graphics and photo editing since I also shoot a lot of pictures. I Have design posters, logos, and animations for web ads. I keep learning new stuff since technology keeps on advancing and evolving.

Best Tutoring By Far.....

I started tutoring students middle and high school prior to graduating college. I have taught part-time college students at various institutions since 1996. I also have worked as an independent tutor part-time. I have more than 30 years of experience teaching as a one-on-one tutor and as a college instructor. I currently teach at Wake Tech Community College. I have taught at Strayer University, Campbell University, Mount Olive College, Durham Tech Community College, Central Carolina Community College and Vance-Granville Community College. I have worked with 3 other tutoring companies: University Instrcutors, Advanced Learners and WyzAnt.
I enjoy teaching any age student, but more than that I get satisfaction when that student attains their goal. I believe in using the Socratic method of teaching and allowing the student to get their own answers rather than just telling them. I seek ... read more

Teacher with gentle touch - Very good at explaining new subj

I try to find the teaching style that is going to work for the student. Are they visual? Do they need to touch to learn? Finding out how to teach them and then helping them learn skills for independent study are just as important as the material.
Web manager and usability analyst as well as instructor. I have been asked at various jobs to teach training classes to my peers because of my ability to deliver an easy to understand lesson. I've been told I am very good at explaining a topic that someone has no experience with at all. I am on contract with NC States Computer Training Unit.

I have informally tutored people of various age ranges in the subjects, physics and math , for a period that ranges over about three years . I have taught younger relatives as well as helped people informally on online tutoring message boards with math and physics problems. I have also been paid to assist students in how to operate the basic commands of computational mathematical software for three years as well.
I would be glad to work with students of all ages, but I prefer to work with a student individually rather than work with students in a group. From both my experience of being an informal tutor and being tutored, I find that students general prefer this style of tutoring because the tutor can both focus and better access their student's strengths and weaknesses in the particular academic subject they are having difficulty with.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and enjoy working with children and adults. The only thing I ask is that the student be willing to learn. I love any learning environment. I love to make the most of any learning opportunity. Learning is not limited to the classroom. I learn new things every day. My favorite professor is 76 years old; I want to be just like her. I embrace Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligence. The most exciting experience for me is to teach a student and watch that student lean over and help another student. I love the synergy of teaching.
I have spent the last 10 years as a student and as an instructor. I realized that I needed computer skills and decided to get the skills necessary to survive. While I was a student, I acted as a tutor. This reminded me how much I love teaching. After I graduated from Nash, I began working as an adjunct instructor. In this capacity, I have work ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach, it is my passion in life. Every student has intelligence and every student is a genius in one subject or another in school. Any and all students can learn you just have to apply the material to them that fits their particular interests. I try to stay up to date on all the new trends and fads that kids are into in order to stay fresh and up to date with them and apply all my knowledge in science and in other subjects to fit them specifically. I have no one set way to teach any level of student because each person and group dynamic is much different than the next. I try to adapt all my lessons to fit all the learning styles (visual, auditory, hands-on, etc). I have plenty of experience teaching special needs students so I adapt my lesson plans to fit their particular learning styles as well. I try to be an educator rather than a teacher because students will remembe ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been a counselor in the public schools for the past 16 years, both at the elementary and high school levels. I have tutored students in many subjects; ranging from 3rd grade math to advanced algebra to US History.
I am able to diagnose weak points in the student's knowledge and remedy those weak points so that the student is better able to have a full understanding of the content. I believe that most academic difficulties come from small gaps in knowledge and a misunderstanding of how parts relate to the whole.

I enjoy working with all levels of learners. While in college I tutored a high school student who was hearing impaired. Although it was challenging, I found his progress to be rewarding in the end. Furthermore, I enjoy tutoring young children who are just coming to terms with reading. I was a nanny at one point in my life and took the children to the library often. It is truly amazing to watch the world of literature come alive in a child's face for the first time.
As an academic counselor in composition at Catawba College I was able to assist in the enhancement of writing skills for both day and evening students for upwards of two years. I worked with a range of genres from analytical papers, formal speeches, to senior theses for the Writing Center. I documented the progress of the students and corresponded with professors. My bachelor’s degree is in English and I have a double co ... read more

I have earned my Ph.D degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Technology in Wroclaw, Poland. For some more years I worked there, where I loved teaching students and doing scientific research. Looking for new challenges I accepted an offer to join College of Engineering at NC State University as a visiting professor. After a few years, when my contract expired, I got a position of Math and Statistics Teacher at Fuquay-Varina High. Kestrel Heights School in Durham was my next place to master my teaching skills at the HS level. I enjoyed working with HS students and being able to participate in their growth.
I enjoy teaching and working with HS and college students. For me every student is a different young person, which should be treated individually, according to his abilities and style of learning. A teacher needs to be patient and a good observer to identify the tale ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a natural passion for educating youth of all ages and find joy in helping them succeed. No child is unreachable when it comes to connecting with them. The only true difficulty may be finding their learning style. Teaching is easy when you know your audience. Our country has put our youth in a state of desperation with regard to their level of education, desire to obtain higher levels of education, and the ability to compete internationally. I want to be a part of the solution in reaching our youth and reassuring them that they can still be and achieve anything they seek.
Education is the central focus of my everyday life. I have obtained a BS in Management-Health Care/HR and 5 Associate degrees in Business Administration, Administrative Office Technology, Medical Office Technology, Legal Secretary, and College Transfer. I have been homeschooling my son since 2006 and mentori ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated in the top 15% of my class from Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. I then started my own company as a Spanish instructor. I taught Spanish to medical professionals and at the local preschools in the Boone, NC area. Last school year I taught high school Spanish. I currently work as a Spanish/ESL instructor at a college in the evenings. In addition, I have tutored high school and college students in Spanish.
I am passionate about teaching. I prefer teaching foreign language through a hands-on approach. Everyone is capable of learning, we just have to find their learning style. With foreign language, I use flashcards, simple songs and interesting stories to incorporate the language. My goal is to get the student to retain the language, not just memorize it. I show my students that they can benefit in careers and life through the knowledge of a second language. If t ... read more
