Changing The World, One Child AT A Time

I was an assistant teacher to a 3rd grade class at Wilson's Mills Elementary from 2001 until 2003. My duties included assisted the teacher and helping the students in a manner to help them learn at their pace. And I also have an 8 year old son who attends River Dell Elementary. I help him on a daily basis with his homework, which includes math, reading and writing. I love kids and it brings great joy to my life to see the smile on their faces when they learn something new, or figure out the answer to a problem they are working on.

I have worked for two years as a Science Teacher and I have loved it. I have earned a bachelor's degree in secondary comprehensive science education where I am liscensed to teach all sciences. I have a vast knowledge of all sciences and I am a lifelong learner who is constantly challenging himself to learn more about science through self-teaching and self-study. I have taught AP Biology for one year, and 5 standard biology classes on block scheduling. I have also taught 3 standard earth science classes and one honors earth science. I am qualified to teach all sciences but my concentration in college was in biology. 50% of my students have scored 3 or above on the EOC for Biology. I have taught all my students to handwrite all of their lab reports to fit with current standards in science. I have extensive experience in writing research papers, and I am fluent in Algebra I, II, and ... read more

I enjoy teaching and working with children and adults. My first experience in education was with children's music classes, and have since enjoyed the opportunity to teach adults at the community college level. I would describe my style as adaptive. In my experience every child and adult requires somewhat of a different approach. After careful evaluation, a course is developed to meet the students needs. With that said, no matter what approach is taken, above all else I know that practice and a solid understanding of the subject's terms is the first key to successful learning.
For over four years, I have been involved in private tutoring as well as teaching classes available to the public. I have a passion for teaching and enjoy helping others succeed. While completing my Bachelors in Business Administration, I developed a firm understanding and passion for economics, finan ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very passionate about teaching and working with young people. I believe that creativity, patience, and excellent communication are vital to finding ways to help students learn and understand what they are learning. I believe that building a good relationship while maintaining an effective learning environment is also critical. Ultimately, I feel I am a good teacher because I respect all students and accept them positively and unconditionally.
While obtaining my Master's degree in Accounting, I worked as a Professor's Assistant which involved substitute teaching, research, and grading exams and homework. I have a natural ability in working with young people as well as exceptional communication, organization, presentation and people skills. As a Team Lead at IBM, I had many opportunities to train and teach others on computer systems, processes, policies and procedures, and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a heavily arts-based education and teaching background. I taught for a year in an inner-city school teaching creative movement and dance technique. I have artist teacher training from the Lincoln Center Institute for Arts in Education and have been in-residence at several schools working with children by using the arts as the window to learn their academic curriculum.
I believe it is vital to approach each child with an open mind concerning their learning style, pace, and interest in various subjects. I use tools such as movement, song, rhythm, and sounds to open up a different path to understanding subjects like math, science, grammar, and many others. I believe giving children a bodily experience to relate to their academic learning allows for much more growth and it reduces frustration with themsleves when they don't understand lessons only taught through lecture or w ... read more

Taught American and world literature, grammar, writing, speaking, and thinking skills to academically challenged students, significantly lowering dropout and failure rates among my charge. Consistently received evaluations above administrators‘ expectations and regularly exceeded the state‘s exemplary student performance criteria. Took on additional responsibilities such as: school-wide competency testing coordinator, advisor for the yearbook publication, and club advisor for Odyssey of the Mind and Spirit Club.
I am driven to help ALL students succeed. Every child has a strength and, I am usually adept at finding that strength and building upon it. I work particularly well with lower SES students and academically challenged students who feel discouraged and defeated.

I believe that information accessibility should be emphasized and placed in bold. I would consider my style personable, compassionate, and driven to excel. I like to bring humor and discussion into the arena. If it's just me talking, how does it benefit the student if they do not feel they have the ability to rebut or 'think out loud?' New ideas and processes of interpretation are enabled in both the student and the teacher through a live and ever-changing dialogue. I realize that in the 'classroom proper' not everyone will have the 'eureka' experience. That is why the teacher must enable the students to make the connections themselves through collaboration, small projects, various 'out-of-the-classroom events/activities, and self-motivated inquiries. Once the information has been perceived by the student as important, he/she will want more to do with it. The information age has brought ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For over twenty years I have taught at the college level, with extensive expertise in teaching the liberal arts to engineering majors. Much of my work is directed towards teaching research, writing, editing, and analytical skills. I have expertise in writing, editing, research, and most importantly, synthesizing information. While in college, I tutored for three years at a home for 'wayward' boys. My own daughter had some learning disabilities (auditory dyslexia) and though I would not take full credit for this, she is now a successfull first year college student (with a 3.75 average her first semester) and an avid reader. I feel strongest about my skills in teaching students who 'hate' school; writing; alternative ways of looking at math problems.
I assume even the 'worst' student wishes to learn, has the means to do so, and will direct me in how to help him or her di ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is adapted to meet the student’s needs. I firmly believe that each child learns differently. I think students either learn kinesthetically, visually, or auditorally, for the most part. I think it is my job as a teacher to find out which style best suits the student and adapt my style accordingly. I also think that while I am trying to help students develop skills in their weak areas, I need to be focusing on their strengths and building their self-esteem. I think tutoring gives great opportunity for me to achieve this goal.
For my first experience in teaching, I worked with both high school and elementary school students who were learning disabled and in need of help. I used the Orton-Gillingham method for dyslexia and found that it really seemed to work well to suit the student’s needs. From there I went on to work two years in resource rooms working with middle ... read more

I enjoy working with children of all age ranges, and it is my personal goal to make learning a difficult subject less of a chore. I believe that having extra help can make a world of difference in academic success and increase the overall confidence and attitude in a child, as I am very aware myself, having had math tutors when I was in high school. My ambition as a tutor is to give your child the same enjoyment that I experienced in learning Chemistry and English. I am patient and dedicated and I strive for excellence—in my tutoring style I am open and willing to use different approaches to teach if needed. I ask questions and also try to tutor with a similar style to the student's teacher, which can be a critical tool during test taking.
Being a student at UNC Chapel Hill has challenged and inspired me to think creatively and achieve excellence in all areas of academia. As a seni ... read more

I take pride in my own writing style as well as my patience and a sense of humor. All enable me to empathize and better understand the needs of the individual seeking my help.
As a published writer, experienced editor, children's camp counselor and mom, I welcome the opportunity to -- once again -- share my skills. After being sought out as a trusted source for my expertise by professional copywriters as well as family and friends, I look forward to helping students of all ages. When not writing or editing, I am also a classically trained pianist. I've played for hundreds of shows, singers and dancers, including camps, schools, and the North Carolina Theatre.

As a graduate of the Air Force Academy and Harvard Business School, I know what it takes to achieve excellence in education. I have earned advanced degrees in Engineering and Business. My love of teaching and coaching brought me back to the Air Force Academy to coach and tutor college athletes in math, science, English, and French. I also have extensive writing and speaking experience and have helped many students with college essays and applications.
My teaching style adapts to each individual I work with. I believe that one of the most important things to helping anyone learn is to instill in them the confidence that they can be successful. I believe that there are lots of different ways to learn, and I like helping people figure out what works for them. If someone wants to be successful and is willing to put in the work, I will find a way to help them achieve their goals.
