Special Education is one of my top subjects! I am a former Bibb County Special Education Teacher. I am certified to teach different exceptionalities such as ADHD, ADD, Emotional Behavior Disorders, MID, MOID, Autism, grades P-8th grades. I teach Reading/Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies. I am skillful with teaching one on one, and in group situations.

I am a former Special Education teacher from Bibb County. I taught in a interrelated classroom in both the elementary school level, and the middle school level. I taught reading, math, science, and social studies. I was a cooperative teacher, in which I worked with the general education teacher to assist her in helping our students with special needs. In the interrelated classroom, I worked with students who were not able to be mainstreamed in the general education classroom all day. In the interrelated classroom, not only did the students learn the academic standards on their level, but they were also taught social skills, and life skills.
My teaching style is one of engaging, fun style. I believe that students should love to learn. Students should be allowed to academically express themselves to the teacher. This helps to facilitate learning. Appropriate questioning of the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education system. I have found this method to be very effective. The other method is patience. Students who strugge with their academic learning usually are having other areas of difficulty which may be social learning. Having clinical training allows me to make a more accurate assessment.
During the last 10 years I have worked with all levels of students, preschool through college levels. These areas include reading, math, english, psychology, science and social studies. I am a self starter and have worked wi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that students learn in a variety of ways and demonstrate their understand in many ways as well. Therefore, I strive to help students learn what type of learner they are by identifying their strengths and weaknesses and utilizing those in teaching. I also use Bloom's Taxonomy to take learners from learning knowledge to critical thinking. My strength in teaching is my ability to make a connection of the student and being approachable. This had allowed me to be an exciting part of a child's education and ultimately their future as an adult and contributor to society.
Prior to earning my degree in education, I was a sign language interpreter for the Deaf. I noticed that Deaf students were not getting an adequate education so I decided to finish my degree so that I would have the ability to have more influence with my student's ability to be successful regardless of their ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring has taught me that perseverance and patience are the keys to tackling tough situations, and I try to pass that along to others. I am very versatile when it comes to teaching various age groups. I try to keep my sessions exciting, but focused and instructional. I teach to each to the unique style of the individual student and when instructing a medium to large group, I adjust to the majority learning style;moreover,"no student is left behind."
It is my belief that I do not truly master subjects until I can teach it to others. Thus, I view tutoring as an essential component of the learning process. With respect to my tenure as a tutor in the community of Tuskegee, Alabama and on-campus,this has certainly been the case. From helping to ease students of their confusion in the laboratory, to leading review sessions in front of spacious lecture halls, my experiences as a tutor h ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I've enjoyed helping children and youth since a young age. I was a camp counselor for the Harriet Tubman Museum in Macon, GA at age 12, and tutored kindergarten and first graders at ages 16 and 17. I completed my undergraduate internship in school counseling office, and shortly after graduation worked in a psychiatric hospital for children and adolescents. I have continued tutoring children on my own time in grades pre-k through 6th. I have my B.S. in Psychology and Human Services and am currently working on my MSCED in Guidance and Counseling.
I enjoy helping students learn new things. I am a patient teacher but also like to push forward and past where a student is expected to be in school. I enjoy the look on a parent's face when they say that their child as exceeded expectations. I make sure not to teach each child the same because they are all different and learn differently.

My experiences have been varied. I taught Family and Consumer Science for two years. Life experiences broadened my world view and I obtained a master's degree. My experiences include working in a governor’s office, years of substitute teaching several subjects in grades 3-12, and working as an administrative assistant. I later was a school counselor in a K-12 system and then did community counseling and owned a counseling center. Specific skills required for these varied positions include excellent English, business and financial management, positive communication skills, life skills, knowledge about physical and mental health, and biological sciences.
My greatest enjoyment in teaching is when a student ‘discovers’ their ability to overcome their negative self belief. I guide students through their learning process with gentle encouragement and patience. In this process I use a va ... read more

I've learned a great deal of patience over the years and have been told by my students that I explain things clearly and calmly. They've also mentioned in evaluations that I'm compassionate to student needs and generous with practical advice they can use. I've tutored students with behavioral problems and students for whom English was their second language. I'm familiar with the types of assistance these students need. Also, because I work with a variety of traditional and non-traditional students at Macon State, I am aware of the specific challenges facing students with jobs and families.
I am an Assistant Professor of English at Macon State College. I've been teaching composition and English literature for the past twelve years at universities in California and the Boston area. I have extensive experience with one-on-one tutoring, both live and online, to high school studen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

A commercial banker by trade, I currently teach two (2) classes on financial literacy skills to legal immigrant refugees from India, Burma, and Cuba. This volunteer work is offered through the Catholic Charities arm of the Archdiocese of Atlanta. I started teaching these classes roughly six (6) months ago on a volunteer basis, and the classes have been very well received thus far. The first class is entitled "Introduction to Banking", and teaches the fundamentals of personal banking (how to open a checking account, how to write a check, etc.). The second class is focused on family budget planning. Each class is roughly 1.5 - 2 hours in length, depending on the number of questions asked by the students. In addition to the above, I have tutored a foreign immigrant from Turkey in pre-calculus and college-level English. I tutored this student on a volunteer basis for roughly two ... read more

I have recently come to realize that I really enjoy working with students of all ages. However, my passion is still definitely for the elementary age students. While studying at Mercer, I had a professor tell me that she truly believed every child could be reached. I have now taken this to be my belief and truly do believe that every single child can be reached and helped to find the area that they excel in. I am an extremely patient and friendly teacher who helps her students find and meet their full potential whenever possible.
As a graduate of Mercer University, I have had the opportunity to work with students in many different grades while completing my many student teaching experiences. After graduating, I began working on my Master's Degree in Elementary Reading and Mathematics with Walden University. I am only two classes short of completing my degree and will have it ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught a variety of skills and ages, from 1st graders in piano lessons to elderly adult immigrants learning the English language. I have a desire to meet people on their level and encourage them grow. I strive for an atmosphere that is both positive and structured that is a help to both my students and their parents.
I am a recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in TESOL. While a senior in college, I taught an intermediate ESL class for a semester and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also minored in Business/Office Administration and took specialized classes in Windows Vista and Microsoft Office programs. In addition, I have taught beginner and intermediate private piano lessons for two years. I also acquired some experience with special needs when I worked after school as a personal aide to a non-verbal teenage girl with severe autism.

I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. I took British Lit in my undergrad courses. I have a lot of experience with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and some exposure to Publishing. I could tutor basic computer skills in these areas.
I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible fo ... read more
