More About This Tutor...

I believe in an independent learning style, leading the student to discover the right answer; not just supplying it without them having to work. It is important to make sure that students know the background of whatever they are learning so they can grasp the concepts inside and out.
I am a student at the University of South Alabama studying to be an elementary school teacher. I will graduate in December of 2014. I have experience with lesson planning, therefore, I am familiar with the curriculum that is used by the public school system. I know what is required for elementary school students and I have had adequate training in the instruction of grades K-6, as well as special education.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught both adults and youth. I was instrumental in assisting adults in obtaining their high school diploma and college degree. As a youth teacher, I was responsible for teaching students to read and as a result of their improving in this area; I was promoted to a teacher’s position. I have tutored students on an individual basis, and a result they were able to be promoted to the next grade.
My style of teaching is more of a participant style. I enjoy when students contribute to class discussions. It brings joy to my heart when a child finds a task complicated and eventually succeeds. Many of the children that I have taught often call me. It is my belief, that as an educator I must be creative and see each child as an individual and not as a group. As an educator, I am responsible for not only teaching students but for coaching, mentoring, tutoring and inspiring young mind ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

From both my tutoring and teaching experience, I have concluded that each individual learns differently; therefore, I believe it is essential for teachers to discover each student’s learning style and teach them accordingly. I also strongly believe that learning should be a rewarding, pleasant, and even fun experience. Furthermore, I know that each and every student is able to learn; however, often times it is necessary to instill a desire to learn in them. This can be done by illustrating a passion for learning. Once a student realizes the rewards of acquiring knowledge, helping them learn becomes a quite simple task as they have become lifelong lovers of learning.
Coming from a family of educators, I knew from an early age that I would become a teacher myself; therefore, all the steps taken to prepare for my professional life have been to enable me to be the best teacher I ca ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always been an individual who loved learning and have always enjoyed helping others achieve educational goals to their highest ability. During high school I tutored junior high students in math and science. As an undergraduate at Mississippi State University I was employed as a junior and senior to teach biology labs to class sizes of 30-40. I have a BS in Biology and have had a career in clinical research.
There is nothing more thrilling than to see the self esteem of a child or adult grow with sucess in an area that is challenging. I am a very patient, enthusiastic individual and am motivated to help others succeed. I am very adept in finding out learning styles of individuals and breaking apart difficult concepts. Most of all I do believe that all students can learn and everyone has their own pace.

More About This Tutor...

I started tutoring math when I attended Faulkner State College. I then attended the University of South Alabama where I tutored math and physics. I have tutored all levels of math and also tutored not only physics, but lab activites as well.
I have always been a quick learner when it comes to mathematics. It is something that comes almost natural to me. With that said, I understand that this is not the case for everyone. I feel that a good majority of people hate math because they don't understand math, and because they don't understand math right away, they don't try to understand it. I had a wise professor once tell me, "Math isn't difficult; there is no such thing as difficult math. It just seems difficult because you haven't learned it yet". I think math can be easy for anyone, they just have to learn it first.

I worked first hand with professor and teaching assistant and have learned what they are looking for. I believe in teaching concepts and helping students fully understand ideals rather than students just memorizing facts. This way no matter what the professor asks they will know how to answer questions and ace exams. If they just memorize things, they can get confused and get answers distorted. I believe in hands on learning and teaching. I would make "Jeopardy" games to quiz students and also have fun at the same time. By quizing on concepts that are being taught, it gives insight to what the student is understanding and therefore, I can adjust and clarify things that the student is not understanding. I enjoy teaching and helping students.
I have a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences. I have taken courses such as Biology, Chemistry, Genetics, Immunology, Microbiology, Organic ... read more

I am still developing a teaching style. However, I know from personal experience that constructing knowledge requires much more than reading a textbook. All learners have unique learning styles that influence learning success. A student’s favored learning style is a valuable resource for a tutor, allowing the student to discover more about the world and themselves while simultaneously developing a joy for learning. I use informal assessments to instruct my instruction, and assist students to monitor their own learning progress. My strongest teaching tools are good listening skills, patience and perseverance, and a desire to find each student’s academic and creative strengths.
I am a recent graduate of the University of South Alabama, College of Education. I returned to school to earn a teaching certificate in elementary education so that I might expand my career in environmen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have really enjoyed working with children. I believe that each child has a special way that he or she learns best. My goal is to find the learning style that best suits the student so that they can better understand the material. I have found that children learn best through being hands-on, it allows them to understand how things work, instead of memorizing the subject matter. My goal is to teach students so that they are better able to grasp the material.
As a graduate from Virginia Tech with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a focus in Elementary Education, I strive towards achieving academic excellence. I have learned various teaching methods to help children better understand the subject matter that is challenging them. I have worked with many Elementary school children in Math, English, and Science. I also received 3 minors in Elementary English, Elementary Ma ... read more
