Since my graduation from Ole Miss in 1985, I have had the delightful experience of teaching children from all walks of MS. The children of MS have a thirst for knowledge that is rarely discussed in the media. Our children want to learn! I've instructed every grade level from K-8, inclusive, tutored Pre-Alg,Alg I, and admin correspondence courses for students who needed a one-on-one teacher. I obtained my Masters from Mississippi State in 2008. I have experience in the diverse ideologies presented in the educational programs of two of the largest universities in MS. Currently, I am enrolled in undergraduate math and English classes to secure additional course hours so that I may hone my skills in this every changing technical world!
I believe that all children are teachable! Every person, each child, is unique and it is my responsibility to evaluate and determine the most approp ... read more

As a student, I always tried my hardest and sought out opportunities to work with children in a variety of settings. I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and participated in numerous other activities, including Vacation Bible Schools and participating in MECA activities at school. I have taught for one full year in Friars Point, MS where I taught all subjects to a classroom of 19 first graders. I have not done any turtoring, though I often worked with students one-on-one or in small groups to better help them. To complete my degree, I worked in a variety of classrooms and wrote papers on numerous educational topics.
I love working with students and seeing their joy when something finally clicks. I believe learning must be a concrete process with plenty for the students to touch and manipulate in order to succeed. It's impossible for a teacher to use only one st ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my undergraduate studies, I was heavily involved in volunteering and mentoring in everything from education to community outreach programs. After I received my undergraduate degree, I became a corps member in the 2003 Teach for America corps. As a corps member, I served as a member of a national service corps of outstanding recent college graduates of all academic majors who commit two years to teach in under-resourced urban and rural public schools. After receiving extensive and rigorous training in Teach for America’s summer institute in Houston, I went to the Mississippi Delta to teach tenth grade social studies in Indianola, Mississippi. While a teacher at Gentry High School, I have developed daily lesson plans coordinated towards the state curriculum framework, helped to organize and implement the first chapter of the National Honor Society, and constructed a chec ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe education provides students the opportunity to move forward in society as confident and knowledgeable citizens. It is what I think to be one of the most important elements of an individual's growth and development, and it is so vital that educators create innovative ways to help children become successful citizens in society. My primary focus in education is student success. In order for students to succeed in school teachers must first provide a safe place where students are actively engaged in learning. When students are engaged in the learning process they are motivated to learn and succeed in school.
While working to obtain a degree in Elementary Education at the University of Mississippi, I was able to experience a variety of tutoring and instructional techniques in the K-6 grades. Each semester I was assigned to specific grade levels that allowed me to work wit ... read more

My diverse work experiences in the non-profit sector have provided practical, real-world training in helping students reach their full academic potential. I have written grant proposals (totaling over $2.4 million) to support literacy, early childhood education, and remediation programs for both rural and inner-city youth. Before entering the professional workforce fulltime, I served as a volunteer literacy tutor at Walton Elementary School in Jackson, MS and at Raspberry United Methodist Church in Indianola, MS. As an undergraduate, I was employed as a part-time English and French tutor with Student Support Services. In addition, I served as a substitute teacher while in graduate school at the University of Southern Mississippi.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that our children are our future. Without education to make children successful, our future will not be successful. Knowledge is the key to our success. Each child is unique. Everything is interpreted based on the interpreter. Sometimes, tutoring is necessary. I always look for alternatives to traditional teaching styles. Teaching is not just another job. Teaching or tutoring requires a love for learning and children. I have that love and I truly want to make a good difference in every child I meet.
As a Magna Cum Laude graduate,I have always loved knowledge and the beauty of learning. While at the University of Memphis, I tutored at a private school named The Neighborhood School, which provided services to low income families. This experience needed a person with an extensive background due to tutoring was required in all subjects. At the Families First Resource Center, ... read more

I am currently a senior at University of Mississippi. I graduate May 08, 2010 with a BA in Sociology and a minor in Psychology. I have tutored 4th graders at Della Davidson Elementary School in Oxford, MS in Reading and Social Studies. I love interacting with the students and found great reward in doing so.
I love to assist individuals of all ages. However, I love working with children simply because everything children learn while they are young, will remain with them when they are older. I know that every child is different. However, all children have the capacity to learn. Regardless if I am a tutor, I try my best to help children to become better individuals by being an example.

I have tutored elementary students during my tenure in the Air Force on a volunterr basis. I worked as a Introduction to Computers instructor at Keiser College for two semesters. I have a fascination with math and numbers. My extensive experience with budgeting and using spreadsheets and formulas has kept me fresh with my math skills. I recently tutored a 50+ adult to take a math skills test for the CRC. He passed, and was had such a sense of accomplishment, after almost giving up hope that he could pass it.
I love to learn, and love passing that on to others. I am a patient personality, and I may present a problem to a student to evaluate where they are. From there, we can go either backwards or to more advanced work. Education is very important for myself and for my children, and I like to instill that learning takes you further in life than where someone may have not eve ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent college graduate and helping children succeed is a very deep passion of mine. I know that I have achieved a huge task by graduating, and I want to help others reach the same level that I have reached. During most of my years in school, I tutored most of my friends and family members. Most of the time I edited their papers and helped them with grammar. I really enjoy English, even though my major is focused around design, English is my second passion. I believe helping children with their English problems will help them succeed, but it will also help me give back to the community in a positive fashion.
I want to do my part in society, and make life better for others. I want to reassure children that they can reach their goals. Many children loose confidence in themselves if they have a hard time understanding school material. I want to tutor and restore that confidenc ... read more
