Elementary Social Studies Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Waxhaw, NC

I love children and have always been involved in the field of education since my graduation from Fairleigh Dickinson University. While raising my family, I have always been an active participant in school related activities both as a parent and on a professional level. My first teaching experience was in a theraputic classroom setting. this position helped me to develop a keen sensitivity to detect those children that might require a bit more individalized attention. An overall goal of mine is to further develop and increase each students potential. It is my belief that it is essential to provide a systematic and thorough procedure for teaching specific skills in each discipline. This process should be executed according to the needs of the student and their level of functioning. As the facilitor, I design tasks to promote creativity by providing stimulating hands on manipulatives. I inc

I like to use hands on and/or creative teaching methods when possible. I believe that practice and persistence makes perfect. I would say that my teaching style is "outside of the box". I use this effective method when possible, due to the fact that typically students have tried more standardized methods and have not been able to learn from them; therefore they seek tutoring. I have assisted students with tutoring for most of my life. My mother has worked as a teacher since I was born. I have a broad spectrum in technical and creative skills when working with students. I worked as the Geology Tutor at UNC Asheville. I have worked as a tutor for K-5 students at Hall Fletcher Elementary School (also in Asheville, NC). I have also volunteered throughout my life, helping and tutoring students of all ages throughout my educational and professional career.

I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying something is what it is "just because." I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math.
