More About This Tutor...

I have been in educator for over 10 years. I started teaching because of my volunteer work at the Memphis Literacy Council. I love teaching because I believe that education is the key to our country's future in this global competitive marketplace. We must prepare our children for the challenges of tomorrow because we live in such a dynamic world. I believe that every child can learn regardless of his or her situation. When given enough time on task and effective, instruction all kids learn. This is what I do.

I first discovered my love of teaching when I was in the Boy Scouts teaching younger scouts skills like building a fire or pitching a tent. In high school, I would tutor my classmates in English, a subject in which I have always excelled. I am most interested in studying history and geography, and I long to share what I have learned. I was a student for six months in Germany and the Czech Republic and can speak fluent German. I have experience teaching guitar lessons, and I am patient and understanding.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have discovered that every students is capable of achieving greatness if someone will take the time and effort to learn their learning style. I pride myself in being able to break things down to the most basic levels if necessary in order to reach a student. Often you have to know a child's personality, background, and home life in order to understand what he or she relates to. I don't believe in teaching a subject, I believe in teaching a student. I also do not believe in giving up. If the first method doesn't work then we will continue to try until something clicks and that child grasps the material and excels at it.
I have a BA in History/English from the University of Mississippi. I have been a teacher for the past year in Tate County Mississippi. This experience has allowed me to develop a teaching style to reach all types of learners. I have also been a tutor in English ... read more

After graduating from Vanderbilt University I taught 5th grade for 2 years while working on my Master's at TSU. I then moved to the Knoxville area and taught K until my son was born in 2000. We then moved to Wisconsin where I taught in various after school programs until my 2 children were old enough for preschool. I then went back part time and taught 4 K until my 3rd child was born in 2005. Throughout this entire time I tutored various children ages 8 - 15 years if age.
My teaching style can best be described as varied! I believe that children learn in numerous ways, so as an educator it is my responsibility to provide multiple experiences - visual, oral, tactile, etc. A person walking by my classroom would see children smiling, working in groups, accomplishing projects, and would hear noise.

My background in sociology and tutoring combined with my client service experience has provided me with a unique ability to understand and communicate across all age levels and learning types. Typically a stagnant learning experience is accelerated merely by another person being able to express the same statement in several possible ways. Personalities are dynamic and highly influence the way in which an individual understands and, more importantly, retains information. Energy should be focused not simply on the subject material, but on understanding the complexity of the personality and tailoring the teaching method to the individual.
As a graduate from a small private high school (graduating Salutatorian) and elite college (graduating Cum Laude), I was afforded the great opportunity to work closely with both my professors and peers. The intimate settings and ongoing relations ... read more

I am also a poet and an inspirational and motivational speaker. I have written poems for my coworkers for twenty years at my employer. I would say that my style of teaching is creative. I stress the fundamentals, making sure of the foundation, but remain creative in the approach that reaches the student. For example, I made music videos to explain International Standards Organization 9001 principles for my audit students. My techniques have been very well received! Learning is fun! I make it so!
As a Chemical Engineer I have a diverse set of skills upon which to draw upon for a variety of subjects. As a substitute teacher, I have been called upon to engage students on a one-on-one basis in the classroom at both the middle and high school level. I know first hand that most students just need a little more coaching outside the classroom to raise their level of excellence. I co ... read more

Last year, I taught at Roscomare Road Elementary School, where I gained valuable experience working with students in grades K-5. In addition, I have worked as a K-8 substitute teacher for Shelby County Schools in Memphis, TN. After two years of working at a California distinguished school like Roscomare and substitute teaching, I feel confident in my ability to teach to accentuate the learning strengths of each student by tailoring instruction to meet the individual needs of all diverse learners.
Overall, I feel that it is important to develop the intellect, talents, and character of each student in a community of learning dedicated to principles of academic excellence. My philosophy for learning is that each child is unique, and each child learns in a different way. As an educator, it is my goal to help students discover his or her individuality, while working alongside them to ma ... read more

I have a laid-back teaching style and do not like to put pressure on students who are striving to their best. I enjoy building students' confidence and developing them to their potential. I am trained in the theory of multiple intelligences and believe in teaching to a child's learning style. If a student has trouble learning in one way, there are multiple other ways they can learn.
I have a B.S. and a M.ED. in Education with a minor in English. I have been a teacher for 28 years from Early Childhood to college English. I have also been a free lance writer for several years and have published magazine articles. Through my education and work experience I have developed marketable writing skills and can tutor others in grammar, composition, and literature. I have tutored in all subjects, including math, through grade 6 as well.

I love working with students of all ages and abilities. My last job was in a self-contained middle school classroom for students with behavior problems and learning and emotional disabilities. I had students from the first grade reading level up to college level readers. I learned to adapt my teaching styles to meet each individual student's needs.
I have enjoyed learning and teaching my whole life. I earned a degree from Michigan State University with a B.A. in Elementary Education,and minors in English and Psychology. I have experience tutoring neighborhood students, as well as two years of professional middle school teaching. I am licensed to teach grades k-8 in English, math, science and social studies.
