A Little Bit About Me...

I am a veteran Teacher of Mathematics; I have been affiliated with the Jackson Public Schools District approximately twenty (20) years or more, serving in various positions as a Limited Substitute Teacher in Mathematics (primarily), English and JROTC as well. My field of expertise is prealgebra, algebra I and Geometry. I am also proficient in the teaching of English and Preparatory Writing in which I taught on the college level as an instructor here locally. My 'love-affair' with Mathematics began when Iwas a very young student in elementary school at Smith Robertson (now a museum), where I was blessed to have been exposed to and taught by some of the best and brightest teachers. I was taught the basic rules of mathematics (done manually; no such animal as a calculator at that time). Afterwards, upon entering middle school, I was introduced to higher level math due to my academic abi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I first introduce myself and get to know a little about the student I am tutoring. Then, I establish a baseline of what they have learned so that I can direct my attention to their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, I get into the material with the student and show them how and why the material is important and applicable in the world in which we live.
I have served as a substitute teacher in Hayward, CA for 1 1/2 years. I worked as a tutor for Learning & Loving It in San Jose, CA for 3 years. I served as a tutor and teacher of adult education in Loganville, GA for 1 year. I am currently on the substitute teacher roster for the Vicksburg School District, and I have been so for two years.

My teaching style is to merge technology, current events, and thought provoking question into one. I related the given subject to the student as best as I can. This makes the subject personal and it makes the information easy to retain.
During my education at Alcorn, I have helped a myriad of my colleagues with papers, historical facts, and a general/detail understanding of a given historical topic. I would routinely do this three to four times a week. This opportunity helped to expand my knowledge and expound the students.

I am a college graduate that has spent the past 8 years working in health and science education and development. During this time I have not only developed educational programs for low literacy and bilingual groups, written grants for government funding for Health educations, but I learned how to educate people of all types of literacy levels. I have tutored students of all ages in the areas of English, Biology and Health Science.
My teaching methods are structured and developed for each individual person. I believe that there are many ways to teach a student. The key to successful teaching is finding out how your student learns; auditory, visual, didactic or with a combination of learning styles. I use a combination of visual and didactic aids in my lectures. I encourage an environment where questions are welcomed. I want students to not just learn the material but understand ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Much of my institutional voyage was spent in the leviathan web of mathematics. I instinctively operated under such a language as the diffusive properties came fairly easy, resulting in a BS in Mathematics with a Business and French minor at Mississippi College. My short venture in civil engineering school at Mississippi State University provided me with knowledge in physics and chemistry as well. Although primarily science driven, I continued to delve in all worlds of education. I love literature, art, language, and history as well. This holistic approach equipped me with a broad mind. Studying abroad in London, England and Tours, France certainly impacted me and gave me unique perspectives.
Throughout my educational experience, I beheld extraordinary wonders in each mentor I encountered. These professors evinced tremendous skill and articulation that provided me with exempl ... read more

I believe that each child should be treated as a unique individual and should be taught in the same way. The atmosphere of the classroom should be one that supports the emotional, mental, social, and physical being of a child. Children should be educated in their least restrictive environment where proper guidance is given. I will make sure your child is exceeding beyond his or her expectations to become successful.
As a graduate of Mississippi State University, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I had the opportunity to intern in the West Point Public School District where I taught fourth grade and kindergarten. I learned valuable information while teaching that will help me throughout my teaching career such as how to plan and lead effective lessons, how to differentiate instruction, and collaboration to create an creative learning environment.

I am patient, encouraging and considerate. I believe all children can learn and be successful. I want to teach your student the importance of being a life long learner, and show them learning can be exciting.

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.

My motto is simple: In all of your getting, get an understanding. I truly belive that every child can learn. Even a child with a disadvantage still comes with an advantage because they are always getting some help. It also depends on the child also. We must both be focused on the task at hand and together we must tackle it until it is thoroughly understood.
For the last past six years I have enjoyed my students. They never cease to amaze me with all the many things that they can grasp when you try. I was an assistant in JPS. Tutoring was my job. I have also tutored other grades up to fifth. I really enjoy kids and I always wish the best for them. I have also had to be the actual teacher for the remainder of the school year and did grades and end of the school year things due to the teachers' emergency leave.
