Teacher Who Can Teach Any Student!

Taught in Greenwood and Greenville county schools 12 years. I taught reading recovery, resource, and self contained classrooms. Before that I was an ABA line therapist for students with autism. I have a degree in Elementary Education with a specialization in Special Education. I am certified as a Elementary and Special Education teacher through the SC state Department of Education. I now own my own tutoring business Shining Stars Tutoring LLC.
I do not ever yell or scare my students into behaving the way I have seen many teachers do. With many students this does not work. I respect my students and in turn they respect me. This creates an atmosphere where students want to behave for me.

Tutoring for Life

I have graduated USCU with a BA in Sociology. I am use to writing long research papers and creative writing styles. Research is a hobby of mine. I enjoy learning new things and teaching them comes naturally to me. I am professional and goal oriented. Your children will be in great hands as I also have a child of my own. I will be a great tutor for you children and they will be able to learn in a hands on environment.
I'm 24 and mother of a 1 year old (he may be with me while tutoring). I'm laid back and believe there is a natural process that must take place for us to learn and absorb new material. Not just memorize it for a test. However, test preparation is also one of my specialties which does involve more repetition and hands on useage. This could include parent approved trips. I guarantee to give you child excellent attention and sills to use in the classroom and in life.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with all age groups. I have three younger siblings that I have helped tutor through all levels of their educations. I have also tutored on a college level while in attendance at Presbyterian College. I am very patient, easy-going, and considerate. I emphasize the personal nature of the teacher-learner relationship. I teach by asking questions, exploring options with learners, and focusing on learner responsibility, independence, and initiative. I like to push my students to their fullest potential and encourage them to take unique approaches to their studies.
As a liberal arts college graduate, I was educated in multiple subjects, with a focus on the importance of integrating curriculum. I have earned two bachelor degrees, one in Visual Arts and the other in English with Academic Honors. Being an English major, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writi ... read more

My teaching style is very hands on. I like to work the problems out with the students and show them how to do each step. I love questions and I love for the student to fully understand. I want the student to fully comprehend what they are doing. If not, they will never be able to do it without me there. Confidence is key and that can be achieved through repetition and a full understanding.
As a college student, I wanted to help other struggling students as well as polish my own skills. I decided that tutoring students would be a great job to earn money and achieve some personal goals. In addition, I played college sports so my students were other athletes. I have tutored students in math, accounting, finance, English, and various other business classes.

I strive to help students create an appetitite for learning. I also understand that each child learns differently. I have patience and I believe that every child can achieve their educational goals with a good educator and the appropriate surroundings. Assistive technologies are a great way to provide a unique learning experience. I believe that a fun learning experience is a true learning experience.
I have a passion for helping others and I live to learn. I realized at a very young age the power of education. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in International business in August 2009. I am an MBA candidate and my expected graduation date is February 2011.

I have three years of experience working with students with special needs in the classroom. I also have personal experience helping those with special needs. My younger sister has a server intellectual disability, which was the driving force motivating me to enter the field of education, more specifically, special education. Through my graduate studies, I have worked with a diverse group of students with special needs, ranging from students with learning disabilities to students with severe intellectual and adaptive impairments. I feel as if I am highly knowledgeable and skilled with students struggling to succeed. I can see the potential in them and I help them see the potential in themselves as well.
I not only enjoy educating students, I have compassion for students who struggle to succeed. I have learned that every child is unique and all have different learning styles and pe ... read more

My teaching style is one of excitement and enthusiasm. I am passionate about the material I teach, and try to convey this excitement to my students without being annoying and over enthused. In the fields of physics and mathematics, I prefer to use analogies and easy to understand examples to help students learn specific principles and to help show them the big picture into which their hard work fits. I emphasize students taking pride in their work and steadily gaining self-confidence.
As a mechanical engineering graduate from Penn State, I have vast experience with the principles of physics and mathematics. As a junior and senior in high school I tutored students in algebra and trigonometry. In college I tutored students in my own physics classes as well as volunteering my time as a tutor for engineering students in statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, basic electrical circuits, ... read more

I am a very patient individual and have been described by others as "down to earth, easy-going and highly energetic". I believe that teachers should be the highest paid profession in the world simply because they mold the minds of our future generation. I strongly believe that kids tend to do better in subjects where they like the teacher; the teacher makes the class fun and stimulating and can captivate their young minds. I do love working with kids and each one learns at a unique pace and would require a different technique. It would be my pleasure to assist a child academically.
I first started helping students with chemistry as an undergrad in college. For my first year of graduate school, I taught general chemistry recitation classes and labs for one year. I am very proficient in writing research papers, laboratory reports and giving presentations. It is always a pleasure ... read more

More About This Tutor...

What I have discovered about myself is that I learn differently from other people. I am the kind of person who prefers to set aside that assembly instruction manual and put together that Christmas toy by laying out the pieces in an orderly fashion. There is so much pleasure in problem solving. I learn by asking myself questions. I have little patience for mundane drills and memorization if they can be avoided. Each child is different. It is meaningless to say that a child is intelligent. There are many kinds of intelligences. Some children are more intelligent in memorization. Others are intelligent in solving problems. It is best to discover the child's strengths and weaknesses and adapt a program to each and every child.
I love learning and the precision arts such as mathematics. This has driven me to begin in a computer career. I spent almost two decades applying ... read more

I love helping children improve academically. All children can realize success if given the opportunity and right tools. Realizing that all children learn differently, I employ a variety of teaching styles to help each child understand in his or her own way. I believe that all students deserve individual attention from a caring educator invested in his or her success, a belief that I encompass in my teaching.
I have 4 years of tutoring experience in a variety of subjects including reading, writing, math, science, and study skills. I have experience working with students of diverse ages and backgrounds, and enjoy helping these students excel in their education. I graduated from an Ivy League school with a BA in government with a GPA of over 3.8.

I will tailor my teaching to the individual student. One thing I've learned in my education program is that some kids learn visually while others learn auditorily, and so on. I believe in critical thinking; that is one skill that is lacking in school and in society generally. The task of the teacher, ultimately, is to get their student to that point, where he or she is challenging his or her mental models or basic assumptions concerning reality, with the tools the teacher has given the student.
I've been teaching informally most of my adult life. I earned a 193 out of a possible 200 on a Praxis test that covered content knowledge of my subject area (English literature), and 179 in a comprehensive middle school language arts test, and am enrolled in Capella University, where I'm currently pursuing a master's of science degree in K-12 studies. Teaching has been my passion for a long ... read more
