A Little Bit About Me...

I have been an elementary school teacher for the past four years. I teach at a private school in Columbia, SC. I currently teach fourth grade, and pride myself at being a phenomenal math teacher. Teaching academics is extremely important, but also teaching character education is important also. When a student is proud of themselves, they can become self motivated and willing to improve themselves.
Hands on

My comments on tutoring Life Science : Video demonstrations, diagrams, and vocabulary crosswords really work well.

I homeschooled my three daughters for 10 years, right through high school. All three have gone on to Colllege and have excelled, making the Dean's list. In the work world, two have been highly praised for their writing skills. After homeschooling, I began tutoring. I have over 5 years experience and have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students, as well as adults preparing for exams such as the GED. I am experienced working with students who have IEP's and learning disabilities. Call or text at number below to discuss your needs.
I excel at identifying each students strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. I can quickly adapt or create lessons as needed. Most of my students look forward to our time together, as we have fun, but get our work done.

I am an extremely patient educator. I have worked with a wide range of students from students with academic and behavioral disabilities to highly gifted and talented students, all with varying needs and learning preferences. I constantly assess my students to determine their understanding of a given topic. If something does not appear to work, I can quickly and adeptly adjust my teaching style to better fit my students’ needs. I can be very creative when it comes to instruction. I believe in instilling a love of learning in my students, so I always strive to make learning fun. I strive to facilitate a deep understanding of concepts rather than rote memorization of facts.

I have been requested at serveral of the district schools because of the way I respond to being in the classroom and working with children of age grades and ages.

I just recently completed my first semester of teaching University 101 at the University of South Carolina. This course allowed me to find out how much I enjoy teaching. I like to be able to make a personal connection with the students and learn about their learning styles and much more. I feel like each person who is in a teaching capacity has the ability to motivate and help each child in the classroom. It is just up to each one of us to decide how much time and effort we are willing to put into each student. As for me, I am always willing to help each student reach their full potential, even if that means a little extra work from me.
I graduated with an M.Ed. in Higher Education and Student Affairs from the University of South Carolina in May of 2010. Directly after graduating, I began a career as an Academic Advisor in the Moore School of Business Undergraduate Division at the ... read more

Teaching children is the greatest fulfillment of all. Children are the future and they require great educators and mentors. Every child learns in their own way and I am here to help your child achieve success in their academic studies. I am attentive, accommodating, flexible, and patient. Every child is a unique individual with unique needs and backgrounds which is why I believe that teaching through an active, social process like constructivism is a great way for children to learn. I will help your child get to their own understanding of the content at hand. I look forward to making a positive impact on all of my students and helping them succeed.

As a result of this, I have gained a high level of proficiency in the subjects of math and science. Additionally, I have extensive writing experience from writing many laboratory reports and essays from literature classes as well as publishing two scientific theses and a journal article.

Currently I teach first grade in Lexington School District One. I work everyday to help struggling readers and challenge others. I have been “formally” teaching for one year. Before I began teaching in Lexington, I attended the University of South Carolina for a BA in Psychology and MAT in Early Childhood Education. During this time I completed many observations and practicums. Many of these projects involved me working one on one with children to assist and help them learn a new skill. During college and high school I work with the after school program at the YMCA assisting students with their homework, planning activities, etc. I also worked at many local daycares as a caregiver. I am actively involved with many professional organizations and have attended conferences across the state. I like to think of myself as a life-long learner!

My passion is the teaching of children. I beleive each child has his or her own learning stlye. I teach to that style, but also offer the child a chance to experience alternative learning modalities as well. I belive children enjoy learning kinestically best. I offer the best posssible environment for learning. That environment includes liberal exploration as well as designed structure. I am a firm beliver in being a student's "guide on the side" and not the "sage on the stage".

As a senior at Benedict College obtaining my B.S. in Biology, I have gained a better understanding of the study of biology as well as other science-related subjects and math. I have been a part of the Peer-Tutoring program at Benedict since I was a freshman and have tutored in the subject of Biology.
My main goal is not to tell a student they are wrong, but to tell them how they can make the answer correct. Being that my mother is a teacher, I have picked up many of her techniques while tutoring in the peer tutoring program at my college. I believe that it helps a student more if they can be taught by someone who has a similar background to them and are similar in age. I can provide them with an easy way to learn biological concepts just as I've learned while I am in college.

I am an enthusiastic person by nature. I love meeting with students and learning from them as they learn from me. I believe this establishes a relationship based on mutual respect, which is highly conducive to learning. I am also a firm believer in engaging students in critical thinking, and having them walk me through their thought process, which would allow me to not only see how they learn, but also improve upon it.
As someone who is pursuing a PhD in epidemiology, I have a passion for teaching, mentoring, and reaching out to students. I expect excellence from students because I invest 100% of my time and effort into their learning experience. I also hold an MPH in public health and a BS in Biology. During my academic career, I have written and/or contributed to several research articles. Also, for the past year, I have been working as a teaching assistant (TA) at a u ... read more
