Experienced and Creative Tutor in Math, Science, & ACT prep

I've been a tutor for the past 8 years. I started tutoring/teaching as a college student, and I've loved every moment. It's so rewarding to see a student's growth in a subject area. I've provided Praxis and ACT prep to students as well as provided help for subject are state tests such as Biology and U.S. History. I love all math and science related subjects and excel at helping students relate to them.
I prefer inquiry based learning in which I utilize the facilitator and "personal model" methods to help students improve their independence, increase their confidence to explore subjects independently, and show them first hand how to comprehend concepts

I worked on a family literacy program at the Mississippi Childrens Museum, called Planting the Seeds to Read, which entailed teaching children literacy skills and coaching parents in literacy strategies for home. I teach at Canton Young Filmmakers Workshops every summer.
I work with students on a hands on, personalized instructional manner. I teach study skills as well as subject knowledge.

I have earned both a degree in English and a master of business administration. I am currently a CPA examination candidate, and I have passed two sections of the exam. I enjoy helping others achieve their goals, and I have been active in tutoring fellow students in the past few years. Many students I have helped have vastly improved their test scores and understanding of the subject matter.
I teach others by first trying to understand the way that person learns best. If I find that one way does not work for that student, I will try a different approach. I have found that many students have an easier time grasping basic understanding by using real life examples to which they can relate. Once a basic understanding is achieved, further learning can begin. I believe it is important for a student to feel they can be honest about their progress and feel comfortable asking questions.

I am a very eccentric individual who enjoys my students both academically and personally. My teaching style involves developing a personal relationship with my students in order to more effectively advance them academically. Once a student becomes comfortable with me, they also embrace the fact that it's ok to be open with me about their strengths and weaknesses. I believe its essential that the learning environment is emotionally safe for students to truely express themselves.

A Little Bit About Me...

It is my belief that all have the right to receive a thorough and complete education. Children who enter the system at kindergarten should be surrounded by an environment where they can achieve their maximum potential. Their curiosity should be stimulated at a young age, and that along with an organized and developed program, will aid these students in disciplining themselves in whatever subject they study. Reading and writing are the cornerstones of education and should always be emphasized above all else. The purpose of education is to prepare a person for life. As educators, we want to make sure that during these years, students are exposed to all that they need for a foundation on which they will build a meaningful career.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a passion for teaching anyone who needed my assistance. I feel that everyone has the ability to learn anything that they put their mind to doing. Over the years, I have also learned that no one learns skills at the same level. Knowing that, I take my time and learn what interests the students that I'm helping and I try to incorporate that skill into teaching him/her. My goal in life is to be able to provide another student with the knowledge and education that my past educators provided for me. Knowing that I've made a difference's in one's life is a lifetime of achievement for me..
