More About This Tutor...

I have over 15 years experience as a private tutor. My students have ranged from elementary to adult learners seeking teaching licensure. My desire is to find out what teaching style best matches the student's learning style. This may include a Socratic teaching method for some, while others may require a more traditional lecture approach.

More About This Tutor...

Classical violin training, I believe, is more effective than Suzuki. In language acquisition, I can work with a student to simulate immersion in a foreign language, or create building blocks towards thinking like a fluent/native speaker.
Linguist, historian,violinist, and polyglot. I speak English, Vietnamese,French, German, and Turkish. Out of these languages I feel I can teach English, German, and Turkish. I am currently learning Arabic and Portuguese. I have experience with language acquisition and would love to work with you on whatever your language learning block is, no matter the language you are learning. As a professional violinist, I have studied for over 10 years and perform regularly with different groups throughout the area. I am a student of the Concertmaster emeritus of the Memphis Symphony, who studied under the late Nathan Milstein. I will also gladly tutor in the ... read more

Anyone CAN learn ANYTHING...I promise. :)

I believe that happy people not only learn faster, but they also retain more. Far too much of our kids' lives are spent cooped up indoors. Therefore, I like to take an open-door approach to learning and like to schedule as many sessions as possible out of the house/library/etc. Each session is guaranteed to be filled with fun learning experiences that the pupil will be sure to remember. A session with a child that needs reading/spelling/comprehension, for instance, could very well be done at the zoo. I want my kids to learn, and have fun doing it! Our planet has so much to offer in the ways of educating our children! I never have to look far to find a teaching/learning opportunity!
Currently a junior at the University of Memphis, I am seeking a Bachelor's degree in English. I love to write, and have always been the dictionary for people, so my concentration is in Creative Writing. ... read more

Making Learning as fun as possible.

I prefer to have a fun learning environment. I think you learn from hearing, seeing, and doing.
I’ve had many years of practice in the tutoring field dealing with the fact that my brother has a learning disability. He likes to have fun and thinks that leaning is boring, so I try to make learning as fun as possible. Then I have my student on student tutoring when the students tutor each other. I think its better that way because most students don't really pay attention to their teachers but they take it better when it comes from another student. Sometimes its better because something you understand they may not understand and when you explain it to them then may be they will understand it a little better. Basically what im saying is that some kids learn better from other kids.

I have been a volunteer tutor at a local elementary school during their aftercare program. I have also been a mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Memphis to a first grader who had trouble with math (adding,subtracting, and multiplication). I have also helped fellow peers study for tests and the Reading and English sections of the ACT.
I believe a hands on approach to teaching a subject is the best way for a child to succeed. I believe that flashcards as well as games help younger children succeed in mastering a subject. Making a subject fun is key to helping a child tackle a tough subject. For older kids, practice tests are very helpful as well as flashcards. Encouragement and support is also an important part of mastery.

Reading is one of my top subjects! I have been reading since I was very young and had a post-college reading level in elementary school. My love for reading is what inspired me to get my Bachelor's in Writing and my Master's in Journalism.

Instead of telling the student the correct answer, I prefer to help them understand why the answer is correct. With writing, there can be better ways to word a sentence or rearrange a paragraph and I try to help them figure this out on their own. That way, the next time they run into a similar issue, they remember how they improved their writing the previous time.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Writing in 2008 and am graduating this May (2012) with a Master's Degree in Journalism. I worked as a English, Writing, and Grammar Tutor for two years at both my college and graduate school. I have had experience tutoring and writing a variety of styles and genres including creative writing, non-fiction, editorials, poetry, blogs, press releases, and feature articles.

To help a struggler in need!

I have tutored my little cousins with their homework before & also in summer camp activities with kids in general! I love to help out with anything I have knowledge in. I am a god writer who loves to write and also working on a novel currently. My strongest points are composition and I am very wordy when it comes to writing. I love to read in my spare time and my favorite subject is English still. I do know some Spanish as well. I am not looking to tutor in Math, as that is not my strongest field. i know some Biology as well.

I teach it one way and if mastery is not reached I try it over and over again until the student meets the mark.
I teach grades Pre-Kindergarten through 4th grade. I have been teaching since 2003. My passion are the early years but principals that I work for have told me that I am such a strong teacher that I should teach the upper primary grades. I prefer to lay an excellent foundation to get students grounded in the basic skills. Students that are taught by me excel and soar in the educational path.
