My teaching style follows my personality. I am a hard worker, therefore I expect hard work in return from my students. I have always been described as one who explains concepts in a manner that is easy to understand, and I feel that this is a result of utilizing the "common sense" approach to problem solving. Being from the Union Springs area, I am very interested in helping the local children succeed in school and be positive contributors to their environment.
As a graduate student at the University of Alabama I instructed 3 college level physical geography laboratory sections per semester. This experience sharpened my communication skills and provided a valuable new perspective on the learning process. I was also employed as a tutor for the University's Athletic Department.

It is my experience that everyone has the God-given ability to learn. Whatever it may be, we have the capacity to acquire knowledge and skills that enable us to have a better quality of life and to be valuable assets to others in this ever smaller global community.

I am a fall graduate from Troy University and will be graduating with honors. I am currently a peer tutor at Troy in biology and math (algebra). I have tutored privately before in high school math (algebra and geometry. I graduated 9th in my high school with honors earning an advanced diploma with an honor's seal. I love school and love to learn. I will be enrolled in Amridge University in January to pursue my master's degree.
I love to learn and help others to learn. Different people learn differently; therefore, I present material in a number of ways until I discover how the tutee learns. With that information and plenty of patience everyone learns their own way and at their own speed. My goal is to not only help students improve their grades but to also learn the material.

Working towards my B.S. in environmental studies I had the opportunity to work as a high school tutor in mathematics and science. I worked with children in a traditional manner, tutoring them after school by working through homework problems and past test/quiz questions. After graduation I began educating children at a nature center in a less traditional way. Here I worked with larger groups, taking them to explore nature, creating activities that were fun but also educational.
Having worked with children for many years in versatile environments, I have learned that every child has a unique way of learning. One may need visual representation, while another comprehends better via audio learning. Some children retain more information through hands-on activities while it is easier for another to read the material. Whatever the case may be, I revise my methods to better suit the ne ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style revolves around applying skills to the specific interests of the student. It has been my experience that a child learns best when they can ground their knowledge in their own specific, real-world interests. I believe that when you provide a student with an interesting and positive environment, they can really soak up the knowledge and learn to apply it on their own terms. I believe that my patience and creativity make it easy to create this environment. If you give a student the opportunity to discover and learn at their own pace, I truly believe that the confidence they gain is directly related to the quality of their education. It is my personal wish that every student have the same opporuntity to experience the value of a solid education and to appreciate the avenues that such an education can afford them.
While at Purdue, I studied English literature and w ... read more

I love getting to know each child before determining exactly the teaching style he or she needs. I love to keep their attention by using my creativity to inspire them and look at things in a different way. I want them to love learning and to retain the information, each in their own way.

Having just graduated in May 2008, I feel lucky to have already experienced a wide range of instructional opportunities. Last fall, I was employed as a Teacher's Aide and Learning Lab Facilitator. Serving in these capacities have provided me with amazing opportunities to experience the "Response to Intervention" program, IEP's, inclusion classrooms, as well as one-on-one and small group tutoring. In the Learning Lab, I taught both English and Math. In January, I was employed as an 8th grade Reading teacher. During this time I was introduced to a wide range of highly effective reading intervention strategies.
Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I thoroughly enjoy helping students to realize their full potential. I believe that all students are capable of achieving academic success so long as the teacher provides a means through which students can make personal connec ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a native of Puerto Rico. I learned English as a second language at the age of 11 years old. I recall the difficulty I had in learning the English language while at the same time trying to make it through the 5th grade. The task was frustrating and often overwhelming. The few teachers who made the effort to tutor me individualy were the ones who made the difference in my academic life. I would like to put my experience to use as a tutor who once walked a mile in the shoes of a young person who is striving to excell but is having difficulties due to a language barrier.
As a former U.S.Army academics instructor, I have taught several hundred students from many countries in South and Central America as well as Mexico. The academic program for these students was conducted exclusively in the Spanish language. I have received extensive education in technical terminology, lesson plan ... read more

I am a lover of learning. My love for learning has certainly attributed to my working my way through a Masters of Arts in Teaching. My enthusiasm for helping others to learn has been most heightened; however, through my experience working with students. I have worked in multiple roles at the elementary school level through collegiate level. Every position I have worked in I have loved because of the students. Each person has their own learning needs and own challenges. I love being a part of working through those challenges and finding understanding and success.
I find that teaching is as much about getting to know each person, finding there strengths and weaknesses and using those to benefit them in their process of understanding. I like to come up with creative approaches that will suit each individual's strengths for learning. I know that one on one attention, support and encour ... read more
