Ready to aid future journalists in crafting their skill

Hands-on - possibly with an option to contribute news or photos to my newspaper and build a portfolio that job seekers find ideal.
13 years of experience in journalism after a four-year degree was obtained. During college I was executive director of the school radio station, editorial editor of the school newspaper and involved in yearbook. I have a strong grasp of AP style, Adobe products and a nose for news. I have cultivated reporters, training them on enhancing interviews as well as page design and photography.

A Little Bit About Me...

While in college myself, I tutored other students in college algebra. I also helped students with basic, intro level college math courses. I earned my nursing degree in May 2013. My favorite subjects are any type of math, sciences; to include biology, anatomy and physiology. I also received high scores in all of my college level English and composition courses.

I have seventeen years of experience teaching all subjects to all grade levels to students who qualify for the Learning Disabled, Physically & Health Impiared, Attention Deficet Disorder and ADHD programs. As an intinerant teacher I moved from elementary schools to high schools tutoring students in all subject context areas, while providing hands on individualized learning to meet the needs of the students and their disabilities when necessary. This approach provides technology, group learning and one on one learning when necessary for the students to meet their maximum capabilities in school.
My approach to teaching are always individualized to meet the needs of each student.

New college graduate with teaching experience

I have 1.5 years of volunteer experience in teaching adult literacy. In this experience I have taught the alphabet, study/homework skills, basic consonant and vowel sounds, rules to the English language, and reading and writing. My sessions were one hour long, twice a week at the central library system.
I have experience in one-on-one teaching, but feel comfortable with no more than five students at a time.

A Little Bit About Me...

The method of teaching used will depend on the subject and student. As a general rule, I prefer method of explanation, demonstration, and drill. The person being tutored must have a desire to learn. This can be fostered in children by explaining how they will benefit from learning the material.
I am a Systems Engineer with a BS in Business and a MS in Computer Science. Systems Engineering involves getting disparate systems, equipment, and/or people to work together to accomplish a goal. It requires broad knowledge of many subjects and the ability to communicate that knowledge, clearly and unambiguously, either orally or in writing, to others. I am a former naval officer with a current TS/SCI clearance. To maintain this clearance I must remain above reproach in all conduct, public and private.

Through my extensive coursework and research and practical application in the classroom, I found quite quickly that there are several different learning styles. It is important to create lessons that they are approachable for visual learners, auditory learners, kinesthetic learners and so forth. It is vital to get to know your students from the start and to see how they learn and operate best, hence making instruction to overall fit their needs making them perform better academically. I am responsible, highly organized, and driven. I am patient, as is necessary when teaching elementary students, and I take my work to heart. I greatly care about what I do, as hopefully all educators do. I have seen the great impact that kindness and extra help can have with young students, and I hope to bring these qualities to your company though tutoring.

More About This Tutor...

Everyone's teaching style is an accumulation of the teachers they have met. My favorite teachers were tough, they pushed me to do my best, and encouraged me to draft, edit, and to have high expectations for myself. Their goals were realistic, and relevant. As teacher, I want to give each student an advantage, over other students. I believe that writing and reading may be the most important thing a child can learn, but more importantly love and continue to do throughout their life. I am patient, flexible, and motivated. I strive to make the difference.
My teaching experience began in high school, when I would review and edit my classmates essays. On several occasions, I also went through essays line by line. In addition, I taught swim lessons to preschool aged children, and helped coach crew to high school aged students. Throughout college, I continued to aid my peers wi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The most important element of achieving success in school is self confidence. The way I help build that in children is by being extremely positive, supportive, and full of praise. I observe their behavior carefully to make sure they truly understand what they are being taught. When something is challenging to a child, I try different methods until I know it “clicked”. Another very important part of tutoring is communicating with the students’ guardians about their behavior or any stressors. When I know what external factors are affecting a child, I can be better prepared for our session.
Throughout college I was a tutor with a Learning Center. I worked with children in grades K-12. At this center, we helped build reading and math skills individually and in groups. I was also a private tutor for a high school student. Together we improved her study skills and organization. I assis ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion for teaching and as such opened a tutoring service that I ran for four years. I hold a Bachelors of General Studies from Valdosta State University and will graduate with my Master of Business Administration in May 2010. I excel at tutoring in English, sociology, psychology, mathematics, science, literature, and social studies.
I believe the greatest asset to learning for anyone at any age is learning "how" to learn. I like to use modern techniques and ideas to creatively teach a child or adult a new concept. I am patient and unique.

Everyone is special and unique in how they learn and incorporate new information. I like to get to know people to understand how they can learn on their skill level. Patience and understanding is key when working with students and young people because everyone is different and special.

Throughout my teaching, I have adapted the classroom to complement and enrich each student’s learning style, a challenge I thoroughly enjoy. I believe in considering the needs of the whole child, so life lessons can become tools and participation in the journey of learning becomes key towards a measureable outcome of success. I have always attempted to connect with students in a unique and significant way, challenging them to them to expand and believe in their capabilities. With nurturing support children will strive for their potential, and if I can make it fun along the way, then everyone enjoys themselves, all the while important learning and growth has taken place.
My B.S. in Elementary Education has provided twenty-five years of teaching in a wide range of experiences. I have taught K3-8 grade students, including those considered “at-risk” due to emotional and behavioral ... read more
