Resume Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Skyland, NC

I prefer interactive teaching, including audio, visual, and verbal. I returned to school at the age of 47 to get my degree in history. My experience consists of tutoring from 1 - 60 students (in the same hour), teaching at Greenville Technical College, and creating my own tutoring service. I deeply enjoy all kinds of history and have a passion for teaching others. From my very first job (selling papers at the age of 11), I have used teaching as the medium for interacting with people.

I believe in connecting the learner with the content in order to make the whole process real and relevant, not just isolated pockets of fact-finding. I do this by creating a non-judgmental, non-threatening learning relationship in an environment where students feel comfortable expressing themselves. I determine what kind of obstacles a student may be constructing that can undermine his/her ability to be successful in the classroom. I pride myself in being able to help students discover their own best methods for overcoming roadblocks to learning while understanding how to think about how their own thinking! Students enthusiastically and thankfully find that this process serves them for the rest of their educational careers! I have taught both middle school and high school students, and I have extensive experience understanding how adolescents learn. I'm skilled at determining why a stude

I love working with children as well as adults. I am very patient and understand the difficulties of school work. Not all children learn from the same style of teaching or at the same rate, and I believe that a dedicated teacher can make all the difference in a child's education. Because each child is different, I can modify my approach to fit the needs of the child in a fun, productive manner. Having graduated from Appalachian State University in 2009 with a BSc. in Biology/Ecology, as well as an internship at the Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota, Florida, I've returned back to Asheville to find employment. I have had experience working with children and teenagers as a senior counselor at Cedars Camps for over 3 years as well a counselor for children at The Florida Aquarium.

Each child learns in a different way. I enjoy finding what works for each child. In the current state of education, children often find themselves burdened with an exorbitant amount of work that seems endless and impossible to conquer, and parents often find their children stressed and frustrated by a lack of comprehension. Learning should be an adventure into a previously unknown world, not a job. I strive to make that possible for each and every child. As a fellow during my graduate work at Indiana University, I taught undergraduate courses focused on helping students improve their written and oral communication skills. While pursuing a double major during my undergraduate years at the University of Notre Dame, I served as a university tutor, helping students in chemistry, communications, English and Spanish. Additionally, I have served as a volunteer for Head Start, a national governm

Since childhood, my hunger for knowledge has driven me to study and learn about almost as much as I possibly could. My high estimation of learning has often led me to help others to learn whenever I can. Always drawn to math and science, I pursued chemistry in college and received my B.S. from North Carolina State University in Chemistry in 2002. In grade school and high-school I was always looked to by my fellow students for help and explanation of many topics. This continued throughout college where I gained a job tutoring at another school and also worked at the study labs of NCSU. Science and math are my passions, but I can help equally with humanities. I begin teaching each tutee by first observing their own approach to studying, listening to their explanations and questions about the material, and indentifying their strengths and deficincies with respect to knowledge of the subject

I believe that a great educator is a great learner. I am always up for learning new things, so that I am able to teach someone else my new skill. I believe in a hands on approach to learning. The more that can be discovered by doing is much more beneficial than just reading from a text. I am a patient and caring person who is dedicated to taking the time to make sure that your child receives the attention that he or she needs. I have wanted to work with kids all my life. I love the way that they learn and think, and how different it is from adults. I studied Biology at Warren Wilson College in hopes of becoming a high school biology teacher. While at college, I did over one hundred hours of service tutoring and mentoring high school and middle school students in Buncombe County. Since graduating in 2009, I decided to take a break from school, and figure out where I wanted to go in life.

As I described above, I have many experiences to share from my 13 years of teaching. I am a very open and flexible educator that uses various resources in order to help my students become and feel successful with challenges. However, everyday I continue to learn something new from my students just as they have learned from me. I always enjoy any opportunity to help young generations prepare for the role of future leaders that will shape and take care of our world someday. Ever since I was a little girl, I wanted to be a teacher. Throughout 20 years of school, including my bachelors/masters programs I finished shortly after high school, several wonderful teachers/professors came into my life influencing me into teaching.

I like working with children of all ages. I believe that children of all ages and cultural backgrounds can learn if given a proper chance. I even managed to teach children in South Korea, when I didn't speak Korean at all and my students had limited English skills. I taught them through games and use of our workbooks and student books. I believe in making learning a fun experience with lots of games and an easy going manner. If the kid is bored or unhappy, it is going to make it much harder for the child to learn. I try to also reach my students at the level where they are at. If a student is at a lower level of understanding, I will start with them there and slowly challenge and build them to a higher level. I graduated college in 1985 and then pursued many different jobs over the last 25 years. My degree in History/Political Science allowed me to be something of a jack-of-all t

Each session is filled with very interactive activities including educational games which I tailor to meet individual needs. It is important to have engaging lessons, especially after a day at school, no matter what the age is of the student.
