I have tutored several people in the past in basic algebra for various things such as the GED or a college class. I worked for two years as a tutor at the Augusta State University Writing Center, tutoring all manner of students, from ESL to graduate students. I also tutored a student with aspergers; thus, I have experience working with special needs clients. I also do freelance editing. I am primarily versed in English, but if math (anything below pre-calculus) help is needed, I will gladly assist.
I change my teaching style depending on the client. With ESL students, I will often point out every mistake to them so that they can get used to seeing what the correct way looks like. With other students, I point out a few mistakes, and then expect them to find the others on their own. With math, I will give out a sample problem, work out how it is done, then expect the student to do a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I use a constructivist approach to teaching with engaging lessons using real-world situations as a foundation. Learning can be applied to the interest of the individual student to exhibit mastery of the standards required at each level. All students learn differently, so my first goal as an educator is to identify a student’s learning style(s) then plan lessons accordingly. I set high, yet reasonable, expectations for my students and they seldom fail to accomplish any task required of them.
As a professional educator, I have five years experience in working with both adolescents and adults in the public high school environment. I am currently an adjunct English instructor at Piedmont Technical College in Greenwood, South Carolina. In both my undergraduate and graduate studies, the emphasis has always been on professional writing skills. In addition, I have extensive training ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored for Mission: Mentor while I attended Georgia State Universtity for 3 years. I was awarded Mentor of the Year in 2006 at Georgia State University. When I continued my education at Augusta State University, I volunteered as a mentor at the ASU Literacy Center helping children of all ages.
I love teaching children. For the younger children, I tend to be more hands on with projects and objects to help them learn. I also believe visual aids are very good. For middle school children learning math and English, I feel like giving them lots of practice problems and going over it together really seems to help. For students in high school it usually depends on the kid. By this age most of them have discovered if they are visual, kinetic, or auditory learners. Based on the type of learner they are , I like to adjust my teaching style.

My experience as a teacher/trainer/tutor/instructor is wide-reaching and diverse. From Sunday school to scientific and technical subject matter, my students have ranged from teenagers to corporate managers and directors. My passion for English started with the greatest high school English teacher the Southside of Chicago has ever known; Maceo T. Bowie. He was a role model for me and many others who had the fortune, or misfortune, of being in his classes. My greatest achievement was learning subject matter in German and then having my German students present this information to me in English only.
My teaching style is to insist on excellence in speaking, writing, and reading in English. I work with patience, but over a reasonable amount of time, constantly using the wrong tense will earn students a demerit on the class "OOP's" chart. This is a "fun" classroom tool but soon they begi ... read more

I'm very laid back and just enjoy being around children. Every child is different and has different interests and difficulties. One box does not fit all, and it's a matter of figuring out how to relate to the child at hand and make the subject matter appealing to them that I enjoy the most.
I spent 4 years in college teaching preschool, as well as 2 years as a high-needs reading tutor for the psych dept at my university. My degree is in journalism/English Lit and my GPA in Lit was a 3.7. I have three children of my own, and they are all avid readers, with my oldest reading 150+ books per school year. I'm well-aware of the current and classical children's literature out there, and taught both of my older children to read - at 5 and 3, respectively.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children of all ages, and like combining education with fun. I am a thoughtful, creative, and patient teacher, and like to encourage children to approach problems and questions in their own way, frequently with examples and projects that will better illustrate a subject area. I feel I have many unique skills and attributes to offer your program. Raised in a multi-cultural environment, I am bilingual in Italian, fluent in Spanish, and proficient in French and Portuguese. I have traveled to more than 35 countries, frequently alone, and love sharing the interesting tales and adventures that I've had around the world, and let them influence my interactions with others.
I recently completed a Youth Staff contract aboard Royal Caribbean. Along with entertainment, we promoted learning and creativity, offering educational activities through science experiments, and exp ... read more
