More About This Tutor...

I tend to prefer a Socratic method of teaching where the student discovers the answer through discussion, reading and research. I will use direct instruction on occassion when the need arises but my classroom is typically humming with group work and whole class discussions.
I have been teaching social studies in Cabarrus County for the past 12 years. I am nationally board certified and have my AP certification in World History. This summer I will be receiving my IB training and will begin teaching AP world history in the IB classroom. I am interested in tutoring specifically in world and AP world history, which I consider my speciality, but am proficient in all social studies classes and can help at any level. I am familiar with the set up and requirements of the AP World History exam and am willing to learn all there is to know about the other social studies AP exams in order ... read more

I cam currently teaching 6th grade language arts at Southwest Middle School in Charlotte, NC. Previously I taught 8th grade reading comprehension and writing at The Fletcher School in Charlotte.

Geography is one of my top subjects!

I believe every student can learn, and as a result incorporate a variety of learning techniques to address a variety of learning styles. I wish to develop students in the four language proficiencies (reading, writing, listening, speaking), and as a result I use a lot of hands-on activities which involve movement and engagement on the student's part. At every opportunity, I try to create a multi-sensory experience of language learning for my students, so that they may fully "taste" various languages and cultures.
Since coming to the Charlotte region in 1996, I have had a wide variety of experiences as a language teacher, having taught in public, private, homeschool, summer school and tutoring situations. Although my primary focus is teaching French, I have also had the opportunity to equip students in Spanish I and II to continue with their language studies. Passionate about pro ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently a college student in South Carolina. I have a 3.4 grade point average while also being a student athlete. I enjoy math and social studies. I take a lot of pride in low level English due to the amount of time I had to put into my own education to better myself in the subject at a young age.

I believe that the first step in teaching is to build a good rapport with the student and understand the problems, fear of study, inhibitions, apprehensions and dreams of the student. Once, the student and teacher are comfortable in each other's presence, things can proceed from there. I find it easy to build a rapport with children and present a light, fun environment where they do not feel threatened. I strongly believe thay my love for studying and taking examinations and my real life experiences while I worked professionally will be beneficial to children whom I teach.Each child is an individual and needs to be understood and approached accordingly. In every recommendation that I have received, I have been complimented on my ability to get along well with people. This is very important for a good teaching environment.

As an MBA graduate with a concentration in Finance, I have had much experience with Finance and Accounting courses. I am used to working in teams and have a talent for simplifying complex information in order to help others. I have tutored a friend in undergraduate accounting and with my help he received an A in the class. I consider myself an expert in MS Excel, Access, and PowerPoint; all of which I believe will be essential in completing a degree in finance or accounting. I am fresh out of my masters program and have taken all the relevant courses that would enable me to help other students in their pursuit of a finance/accounting degree.
I really enjoy helping and teaching people. I realize that everyone learns in a different fashion and that each student needs a specifically tailored teaching method. I believe a student really learns the material when he/she understands the re ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Through teaching students with learning disabilities and tutoring a sister with Down’s Syndrome, I learned not only are no two children alike, but they don’t learn the same either. I pride myself in explaining even what seems to be the simplest task in a variety of ways, and won’t be satisfied until my student not only sees the answer but also understands. I constantly change my teaching style depending on the child and his or her learning style. I am quick to think on my feet if I need to throw the lesson plan “out the window” and start again fresh. I am a caring person who conveys that to those students I teach. One cannot begin to mold a child's life unless you have a mutual trust, love and understanding for one another. It is up to people like myself, dedicated teachers, to help students reach their individual goals.
As a cum laude graduate, I have always strived to achie ... read more
