My comments on tutoring Musical : Assists in a variety of musical areas

I believe that every student learns in their own unique way and at their own pace. I try to cater to that thought when teaching and encourage each student to become his or her own teacher. I think it is important to have a strong fundamental base, but music is more than notes and fingerings. The study of music can give one the power to look at life’s problems through a different lens and give a fresh perspective. Now that I am out of school I see more clearly that there is never an ending point to education. All of those years of studying are not just to pass a test or earn a degree. The purpose is to apply the lessons we learn and create the best life possible. To quote the great Willy Wonka, "we are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams."
I have taught private flute lessons for 10+ years from beginners to advanced and children to adults. I have also helped ... read more

Musical is one of my top subjects! I am a master clarinet teacher.

I am a life-long teacher with a passion for working with students of all ages and abilities. I have been teaching clarinet for over 35 years and I have been teaching voice for five years. I have a bachelors in clarinet performance and I have studied voice for about 20 years. I have been an active jazz vocalist and clarinetist for over 30 years, performing for private functions, public events and everything in between. I have been an early childhood music educator for nearly 20 years and I have been teaching clarinet privately for 30 years as well as working with area band directors to assist then with their clarinet sections. Many of my private students go on to the All State or District Honor Band each year and 2 of my students are 1st chair clarinetists in youth orchestras. In the meantime, I am passionate about writing. I have been a writer for as long as I remember. I have t ... read more

I have a bachelor's degree in Spanish Education and a master's degree in Spanish Linguistics. I have two years of teaching experience at the high school level and I also have private tutoring experience.
My philosophy of education is student-centered where as an educator I serve as a facilitator or guide to the students personal growth. My focus is on exciting curiosity and motivating each student to take responsibility for his or her own learning process. I believe that meaningful learning is acquired through meaningful experiences, and therefore base my delivery of any foreign language curriculum on projects where learners are required to use the target language in staged real-life situations, in combination with listening and writing tests. Most of all I look to excite curisosity, once that has been achieved anything is possible.

In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test prep teacher, I have a close knowledge of students' approach to graduate school, and the process of improving their chances of acceptance to schools of choice. I am academically qualified and more especially interested in teaching humanities courses.
The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from wit ... read more

During my undergraduate studies, I was selected the Departmental Tutor for French language by the Converse College Foreign Language Department. I also taught an entry-level French "drill" class for four years throughout my undergraduate experience. For three years after my graduation from college, I worked with at-risk youth as a wilderness instructor, and also a behavior modification specialist. During my work with at-risk youth, I also tutored such subjects as science, English, algebra, and foreign language.
Education is of utmost importance to me, and I believe that all children can learn, but some lack the study skills necessary to succeed in school. While in pursuit of my psychology major at Converse College, I attended various classes and seminars on learning styles. I feel that each child has its own potential, and if we as educators can empower students to feel as thoug ... read more

In my past experience as a Teacher, I have been required to follow a strict curriculum and adhere to a specific learning plan. My style of teaching incorporates the cognitive and the interactive so students can experience their lessons as an adventure rather than a mandatory requirement. I have always been mild-tempered, patient and encouraging with my students.
I am an innovative leader with demonstrated organizational, interpersonal and communications skills. I have been described by my peers as a dedicated team player who is able to work within the organization framework to accomplish its mission and vision. I gained my teaching experience when I was employed as a Grade 4 Teacher from 1996 to 1999. I also teach music at home and have been a classroom parent for 5 years now.

I always find myself trying to lead others to figure out material on their own as a I set guidelines for them as they do so. I believe this is the best way for them to learn the material. I do not like to tell my students the answers, inhibiting them from thinking things through. I try to find different ways of teaching material in order to keep them motivated, as well.
I am a recent graduate of kennesaw State University, with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology. I believe that I am competent in various areas of biology and chemistry, and will be able to convey that competence. I have taught and tutored at my church and in other volunteer programs since high school. I also currently give drum lessons at a Stephen's Music Company.

I concentrate on each student's unique strengths (as opposed to weaknesses only) in order help students their own skills. Students must feel personally invested in their education, and I hope to be able to instill that in all students.
I'm a recent college graduate, soon entering into a Secondary English education program. I have extensive experience with academic writing and research during my undergraduate career. I have engaged in informal tutoring with my peers and have gained excellent writing skills in particular. I am particularly skilled with one-on-one communication and will be developing my teaching skills this coming year through the MAT program at Agnes Scott.

I have a passion for learning and seek to exude that into my teaching style. I like to have fun with my students and earn their trust at the same time. I do have a habit of catering to each need and trying my best at seeing to their success. While I strongly desire a structured atmosphere for learning, I do not shy away from a little spontaneity here and there. I have found that this keeps the attention of my students and also provides for their further enjoyment of particular subjects that would ordinarily be dull.
I have experience in teaching elementary & secondary grade levels. Having taught kindergarten and first grade, I have knowledge of the scope of learning for those levels as well as tutoring experience within that age group. Reading & science are my strong tutoring points. I have also provided counseling for students. In the secondary grades, I have taught and am curre ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style with my own children is conversational, hands-on, and intuitive. I explore what most captures their attention, then weave in the lessons by using any available teaching aids, such as whiteboard drawings, to illustrate a point, literally.
My German parents spoke (so-called "high", or proper) German at home in NY/NJ, which came in handy after we moved overseas when I was 13. Repeating 7th grade, I learned to read and write German fluently, as well as master the local dialects and sundry colloquialisms without a lingering accent. Doing so allowed me mask my heritage, enroll in higher education, and learn a trade, culminating in a long and rewarding all-encompassing painting career abroad and in the eastern US, before settling in Texas to explore telecommunications. I widely regard the world as a large classroom/laboratory.

I absolutely adore children and love watching them grow intellectually. I have a passion for teaching and thoroughly take pleasure in working with children of all ages and all levels. I sincerely believe that each child has the capability to learn and each child has his or her own personal learning style. I believe that it is my duty to help any child explore his or her own learning abilities and grow. I believe that learning should be constructive and can be joined with the theories and ideas of ever day life so it can be easily understood. My goal is to make a significant difference in every student’s life.

My style is flexible. I view all students as teachers, and therefore adapt my style continuously based on the student's experience, mood, personality, and goals. I strive to help students create "break-throughs" and "Aha!" moments. I believe that everyone is capable of learning anything when given encouragement, belief, and tools.
I funded my college education by working in several restaurants, where I became head trainer, within months, at every location. This parlayed into a professional career, training clients in Medical Software Applications, then designing, documenting and training applications. I currently consult for a customized computer training firm. I have been a licensed skydiving instructor for the past year - which definitely gives me immediate feedback on the effectiveness of my instruction!

A Little Bit About Me...

I was introduced to teaching as a guitar teacher and loved the field of education ever since. My first school experience was teaching 7th and 8th grade social studies in Queens, N.Y.in 1979. Finally, I found my niche in high school teaching various subjects such as Physical Science, Biology, Social Studies and tutoring after school programs for the passing of the high school graduation tests. In 1993 I moved to Georgia and became fully certified in the fields of Physical Science, Health and P.E.and ESOL. I successfully tutored high school students to pass the graduation tests with a >95% rate.
My years of experience have taught me that no two students are alike, especially in the 'tutoring' arena. I find the students strengths and create a positive learning environment that students actually enjoy! My students tell me they can't believe how fast the time goes; and look forward to t ... read more
