Literature is one of my top subjects!

I am a Secondary Education-English major at University of South Carolina Aiken. I am well prepared to help with any English related questions or homework you have. I am on the Dean's List for the university which shows scholastic achievement. I have, or am currently taking, many English, literature, and creative writing classes. I am always willing to help out anyone who needs it.
I am very relational. I just don't give the answers; I want to be shown that you understand why that is the correct answer. I try to make English as interesting and easy to understand as possible because I know that for some it's incredibly difficult.

I have worked with children in the public school system for thirty-four years as a classroom teacher, Title I augmented reading teacher and as a media specialist. Largely due to my years experience as a reading teacher my class of inner city children scored in the top one percentile on the Georgia Criterion Reference Test(GA CRCT) in Reading. I have always felt that if you give a child the wings to fly via reading and life long love of learning they can achieve whatever they desire in life, and I think I have been quite successful in this area.
My strongest area of expertise in teaching is reading. I have taught it for years. I have come to the conclusion through both personal experience, observation of other master teachers and through current educational research that it is most necessary to teach reading and math daily in a systematic manner while exposing the students to a le ... read more

As a recent cum laude college graduate of Mercer University with a bachelor of arts degree in chemistry, I have an extensive background and understanding of math and chemistry. I have also gained extensive writing skills due to writing lab reports and research papers, in addition to essays written for general education classes. During the last three years, I have helped teach and tutor chemistry students both in a laboratory setting, as well as outside the laboratory.
As a babysitter, elementary school tutor, and hospital volunteer growing up, I have come to love working with children. I find the opportunity to help students learn and succeed in school to be very rewarding. I am very patient, laid back, and encouraging, and I firmly believe that with a little hard work, every student can achieve good grades in school.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching children. For the younger children, I tend to be more hands on with projects and objects to help them learn. I also believe visual aids are very good. For middle school children learning math and English, I feel like giving them lots of practice problems and going over it together really seems to help. For students in high school it usually depends on the kid. By this age most of them have discovered if they are visual, kinetic, or auditory learners. Based on the type of learner they are , I like to adjust my teaching style.
I tutored for Mission: Mentor while I attended Georgia State Universtity for 3 years. I was awarded Mentor of the Year in 2006 at Georgia State University. When I continued my education at Augusta State University, I volunteered as a mentor at the ASU Literacy Center helping children of all ages.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a child of an educator I learned the importance of good education very early in my life. I earned my teaching degree and went on to teach elementary school for several years. I was the grade group chairman, math liason and served on the committee to improve test scores while keeping the children and their education my number one priority. I have homeschooled my children and taught in an academic co-op with other homeschooled children. During the last ten years I have tutored elementary children in all academic subjects required for success on their current grade level.
Teaching has been my passion for many years. I have taught swimming lessons since 1980 and found that I enjoyed working with children so much that decided to make it my career. I realize that every child is an individual and requires instruction that suits their learning style. It is my desire to provide ea ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I spent 4 years in college teaching preschool, as well as 2 years as a high-needs reading tutor for the psych dept at my university. My degree is in journalism/English Lit and my GPA in Lit was a 3.7. I have three children of my own, and they are all avid readers, with my oldest reading 150+ books per school year. I'm well-aware of the current and classical children's literature out there, and taught both of my older children to read - at 5 and 3, respectively.
I'm very laid back and just enjoy being around children. Every child is different and has different interests and difficulties. One box does not fit all, and it's a matter of figuring out how to relate to the child at hand and make the subject matter appealing to them that I enjoy the most.

A Little Bit About Me...

I began my tutoring experience by tutoring high school algebra and geometry to fellow students during my senior year of high school. During my four years at LaGrange College I worked in the Tutoring Lab as a tutor for biology and humanities. After graduation, and before entering medical school, I worked as a tutor for Sylvan Learning Center and worked with students seeking homework support for Algebra and Geometry as well as with other students enrolled in the Math Essentials program. While at Sylvan I also taught the math portion of the SAT Prep course. Throughout the course of my education, I have gained experience in biology, chemistry, physics, and calculus, and over the past seven years I have instructed students in biology, algebra, geometry, and basic mathematics, as well as helped students with writing research papers and essays.
I really enjoy tutoring and being a part ... read more

I graduated from Georgia Tech in 2007 with a degree in Aerospace Engineering within a span of 3 years. I spent the next year earning a Master of Science in Medical Physics degree from the same institution and I am currently a medical student at the Medical College of Georgia. My past tutoring experiences have included teaching high school and college students math, science and writing.
I approach tutoring from an adaptive stance, in that I believe each student learns best in his own, unique way. Some students prefer a more direct approach while others would prefer something resembling the socratic method. My ultimate goal is for the students to be comfortable and confident with the material. A good teacher always hopes for his students to exceed him.

I enjoy working with children of all ages. I believe that because each child is different, they learn differently, and therefore I must find a teaching style that helps that particular study achieve their maximum ability. I understand that some students are more visual while others may be auditory. I consider myself to be patient and understanding, and I believe that all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate tools to assist them. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.
As a recent college graduate, I was very determined to be one of the first college graduates in my family. I earned my BS in Psychology with a minor in Sociology in three years due to my determination, focus, and dedication. I am currently persuing my Masters in Education.

More About This Tutor...

Before going to college, I thought hard on what course I should take. As a child, I really enjoyed working with other people and sharing what I know with others. This is one of the reasons why I considered teaching as a job. After completing my Undergraduate education I went on to pursue a degree in medicine, because I had always been interested in helping others and always finding ways to contribute to society. I also pursued a masters degree in public health, so that I can reach out more to the society and be able to relate more. I am now a tutor, providing help to students during after school. I believe that my overall experience will allow me to be a great teacher.
One of the most difficult challenges in high-need schools is how to engage them to study. Based on my experience, children in low-income communities are more concerned of earning a living. Furthermore, they approach ... read more
