I have been tutoring for a total of 6 years now. I have tutored students ages 5-18. I enjoy helping others understand different concepts. I have been tutoring at St. Peter Claver Elementary School for the last two years. I enjoy working with different types of students and I alter my tutoring style to the needs of each student. I would be more than happy to work with your student and help them reach their ultimate goal of success of many different subjects.
My teaching style alters depending on the student that I am working with.

An Exceptional Teacher for Exceptional Students!

I am a former Special Education teacher from Bibb County. I taught in a interrelated classroom in both the elementary school level, and the middle school level. I taught reading, math, science, and social studies. I was a cooperative teacher, in which I worked with the general education teacher to assist her in helping our students with special needs. In the interrelated classroom, I worked with students who were not able to be mainstreamed in the general education classroom all day. In the interrelated classroom, not only did the students learn the academic standards on their level, but they were also taught social skills, and life skills.
My teaching style is one of engaging, fun style. I believe that students should love to learn. Students should be allowed to academically express themselves to the teacher. This helps to facilitate learning. Appropriate questioning of the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am hands on. I personally learn best from things like powerpoints and handouts. This is also the way I tend to teach others.
I am a high school senior in the AP/Honors program at Warner Robins High School. I have two little sisters who I have tutored since they began school. On average, they have scored higher on tests when I have helped, particularly in the area of social studies. I have also helped multiple students at my school. The average that they score on a test is typically ten points higher than when they study by themselves and, in some cases, twenty points if the student does not study at all. The results are typically better in social studies, the subject which I am most proficient in, but all subjects tend to shoe significant improvement.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style reflects the environment of a college classroom. Lessons are centered around unrestricted discussion of topic and formal lecturing. The most central part of my style , however, is guiding the student to realize the answer for themselves. Not only is this method more conducive to learning, it is an indispensable tool for boosting confidence.
Over the past three years, I have had the wonderful opportunity to tutor a wide variety of students on a part-time basis. I enjoy the challenge of transmitting information in a way that is both accessible and edifying. This experience, combined with a world-class education from Mercer University, enables me to engage students on a level not typically found with other tutors.

I love children and am very patient and encouraging. I always look to find their strengths and help each child to recognize his/her own individual gifts and talents. I bring lots of energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to my instruction. Teaching has never been a "job" to me...it is a passion and a huge part of my life. It has been such a blessing to bring the joy of music to the lives of so many children throughout the years.
I graduated from Georgia College and State University with a Bachelor of Music Education, with piano as my applied instrument. I have twenty-three years of experience teaching elementary music and seven years of teaching middle and high school music, chorus, and drama.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and helping children overcome what seems to them to be the impossible. Every child has the capabilities to learn and it is my goal to show them how they learn the best. Managing the difference of abilities among my students at Teen Scene proved a difficult, but satisfying, challenge. I noticed early on that tailored activities allowed me to maintain the interest of students without intimidating less skilled students. Through my experience I learned that an important ingredient to teaching is the ability to communicate clearly. It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability to be a compassionate, enthusiastic, intelligent teacher who will make a positive contribution.
I have a very strong interest in teaching our youth. With experience working at both the middle school and high school levels, as well as in activities outside of the traditional classr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with people and helping them. I believe in constructive discussion, using aids of whatever sort to help make points, and to pick up on a person's true learning style. Some learn from reading, some from doing, some from trial and error. Once you pick up on that you can move forward much more efficiently in terms of helping someone grasp the subject matter in question.
I've taught as an Adjust Professor for both Georgia College and State University and for Macon College. During a 29 year career in manufacturing, I performed a myriad of training classes and programs for companies like YKK, Georgia-Pacific, the Trane Company, and more. I'm completed multiple college level English classes, Statistics and Accounting classes, History and have taught classes in Marketing, Organizational Development, and have worked with more employees than I can count re basic mathematica ... read more

My teaching experience in English spans 35 years. I recently retired from Macon State College and will continue to do part-time teaching at that institution. I enjoy all aspects of the profession and have a proven record of success as documented in my faculty portfolio. My experience includes essay writing, critical reading skills, grammar skills, and vocabulary enrichment. I look forward to continuing my passion for teaching through tutoring and mentoring students in the area.
I try to incorporate a variety of instructional methods, materials, and evaluations in my teaching style since no two students learn exactly the same way. Over my 35 years of classroom instruction, I have developed a number of techniques that are successful. I enjoy new technology, and I try to stay up to date on new software and delivery systems that will enhance the learning experience for students.

It is my belief that I do not truly master subjects until I can teach it to others. Thus, I view tutoring as an essential component of the learning process. With respect to my tenure as a tutor in the community of Tuskegee, Alabama and on-campus,this has certainly been the case. From helping to ease students of their confusion in the laboratory, to leading review sessions in front of spacious lecture halls, my experiences as a tutor have augmented my interpersonal as well as technical skills. The responsibilities inherent to tutoring have motivated me to enhance my knowledge, question my preconceptions, and strengthen my understanding of intergrated sciences and reading material.
Tutoring has taught me that perseverance and patience are the keys to tackling tough situations, and I try to pass that along to others. I am very versatile when it comes to teaching various age groups. I ... read more

During the last 10 years I have worked with all levels of students, preschool through college levels. These areas include reading, math, english, psychology, science and social studies. I am a self starter and have worked with parents when I owned/operated my private daycare. I have since then worked with children in low poverty communities in Atlanta Georgia, in order to provide an alternative method to learning to ensure that children receive the appropriate level of understanding of various subjects.
What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education ... read more

Since my mother owned a day care center when I was a teenager and through my college years I have enjoyed tutoring students of all ages. I have understood students who struggle with different areas of study because I use to be that student when I was in elementary. From personal experience I have reap the benefits of having a tutor and learned several skills during that process. It is important to find solutions an order for the student to become self reliant and confident in their school work. I love seeing the progress from the beginning to the end in hopes of bring them to the next level of their future.
