I have been tutoring for over 8 years. I have also started youth tutoring programs since 2007. I have taught algebra, organic chemistry, physics, and other core mathematics and chemistry classes. Although I have taught in group settings, I prefer to tutor no more than three students at a time. I have taught grades from 6th grade all the way up to sophomore college level.

As a Mass Communications graduate, I focused primarily on writing radio scripts and commercials. I had a goal to inspire the youth via the media. After several internships in the field, I realized that I could serve the youth better in the classroom. I started my career as a substitute teacher. After substituting on all levels, I then took on an EC Teacher's Assistant position at an elementary school. This position has given me the experience to understand weaknesses that our youth have. I then took on an English position at a high school. With this position, I have been able to perfect my writing skills, as well as tutor my students. My passion is working with youth. My goal is to inspire. As an English teacher, I understand that it is important to teach so that all students can understand the lesson. I teach to reach diverse learners.

I love working with children and had around 9 different children for a two year period while working at the mental health agency. They ranged from 3 years old to 16 years old. I am patient when teaching new subjects and very empathetic to different situations and needs. I have always worked to do the best and be the best and make a positive impact along the way. I believe with a positive mentality and hard work the possibilities are unlimited and through helping guide individuals with subjects they struggle and promoting good ethics they too can follow this mentality. I graduated high school in 2003 as the valedictorian of my class. I maintained my high level of academics in college but didn't know what I wanted to do for a career. I graduated in 2007 with my business degree and moved to NC. I worked for a mental health agency helping children in broken homes with school work and

I believe that a successful instructor is one that can appeal to the senses of the students through methods that tweaks their interests. I have tutored and assisted many students throughout various classifications of academic levels in their development of reading, comprehending, and writing. Albert Einstein states, “Education is not what you learn, but what you remember after you learn.” My method of tutoring is not to overload rapid facts and information, but simply to assist individuals in discovering newer and broader ways of expanding and absorbing interesting techniques in verbal and nonverbal expressions as well as other basic skills. My years of extensive involvement in school and community service activities along with my academic success have all played vital roles toward instilling my value of a higher education. Through out my academic history, I have always excel in the c

As seen from above, I have valid tutoring experience in both middle grades and HS. I was in the student teaching program at Wake Forest and upon graduation, I was a substitute teacher in the Winston-Salem, Forsyth County School system. I also participated in the Junior Achievement program in the Piedmont NC region for over 5 years. I am currently a tutor with the "No Child Left Behind Program." I am a disciplinarian. I have an excellent ability to gain a students attention, keep it and the results of my students have been well above average. I have a knack to bring into the classroom, outside events (latest ball games, Olympics, etc.) to establish a 'bond' between myself and the student. This allows me to gain their confidence as well as not create a bored atmosphere. I find this very important, especially with the more difficult students.

I love working with children. I believe that all children can learn, but each child learns in a different way. In order to help a student, you must find out how they learn. You also must find their passion. With this information (passion and learning style), you can help any student succeed. Many of my students have been considered as slow, but once I began working with them, I realized that they just lacked the basic skills. This past year, all of my students have increased at least one grade level in reading and math. Many have achieved grade level performance. I am always driven to do my very best. This has been indicated as I earned mostly A's in all subjects. I have worked in the business world in marketing and I know the value of education. I have a Masters Degree in Teaching. I am currently an EC teacher. I am shocked at the number of students who do not have the basic

I begin by observing the person. In which areas are they confident and strong? In which areas are they fearful and using avoidance? I then find a bridge from their place of confidence to their place of fear and coax them across until they are happily skipping across. This may take some time, but I believe in quality over quantity when it comes to completed work. I want to leave the person with the ability to complete it well and on their own the next time. Speed can be developed after mastery. Education has been a priority for me my whole life. I first began tutoring college students in Math while still in college and have always been willing to teach or train anyone who needed it in my personal life or in a professional capacity. My formal education consists of a BS in Mathematics with a Concentration in Physics and a Certificate in Drafting Technology. My informal education is b

I have a degree in both Marketing and Advertising as well as a minor in Economics. After graduation I quickly moved to Charlotte and took a position as an assistant manager with a popular salon in the area. With this job and my knowledge from my degree I feel gives me experience of not only setting out plans and guide lines but also puts me in a position where I need to teach and cater my conversation to the employee, or client that I am speaking with. On a personal level I am the oldest of four children. So I have had many years of experience helping to study for tests, learn new and challenging information, and trying to find exciting ways to convey the information in a way that they can not only understand but remember. As I have described earlier in my experience I have had many years contributing to the education of my siblings. Helping to make flash cards, and finding ways to cater

As an HBCU graduate, I was driven to succeed at a very high level. I started my career working for several technologically based companies, which gave me insight in using the mathematics and computer science. After 10 years of doing the IT work, I decided to change careers and become a teacher. During the last six years, I have tutored students in mathematics and sciences. I have recognized that teaching and tutoring were my passions. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible.

First and foremost, I love working with students. I believe all students have an ability to learn once you find the way to connect with them. I think the key is in finding that particular connection because each student is gifted in his or her own special way. All people learn differently, and I approach teaching with this understanding and appreciation of the differences in all students and their backgrounds. I think students benefit from a sort of structured guidance that sets them on the right path to learning the material but gives them the room and freedom to feel a sense of empowerment through their own discovery of the embedded lessons. I believe this sense of empowerment and the building of self-esteem through successful learning is a key factor in helping students reach their full potential academically and in life. In my educational and professional life, I have focused on achi

In my 2nd year of teaching, I have enjoyed the experiences that have came my way due to my students. I enjoy going to work daily and leave almost everyday with a sense of gratification because of the accomplishments I help my students achieve. I currently teach 4th grade and feel this grade level has helped me fine tune my writing skills due to the demanding pressure placed on my students to pass the 4th grade writing test. I feel that I am already a good teacher, but know I can be better. Therefore, I will be starting my master’s degree in the summer of 2006 in hopes to become a more effective teacher. Teaching is an art that needs to be perfected based on each individual child’s needs. I am a very demanding teacher, but at the same time always fair and give positive reinforcement while the student is learning and of course, when they have obtained their goals. I teach using a variety
