More About This Tutor...

I strongly support the belief that all children are capable of learning if given sufficient opportunity. As a classroom teacher often facing as many as 37 students at one time, it was difficult to provide the appropriate learning environment for many of these children's needs. Through small group tutoring, however, the right learning environment can be created if the tutor fosters a positive relationship with the student. Developing such a relationship requires considerable patience and consistency on the part of the tutor. Creating such an atmosphere allows the struggling student to expect a reliable mentor to assist her with her studies, while best permitting me to work with the student according to his or her needs.
I began tutoring as a volunteer with the America Reads program in high school. I continued volunteering with the Boys and Girls Club during college. After an opportu ... read more

My passion is the teaching of children. I beleive each child has his or her own learning stlye. I teach to that style, but also offer the child a chance to experience alternative learning modalities as well. I belive children enjoy learning kinestically best. I offer the best posssible environment for learning. That environment includes liberal exploration as well as designed structure. I am a firm beliver in being a student's "guide on the side" and not the "sage on the stage".

A Little Bit About Me...

As someone who is pursuing a PhD in epidemiology, I have a passion for teaching, mentoring, and reaching out to students. I expect excellence from students because I invest 100% of my time and effort into their learning experience. I also hold an MPH in public health and a BS in Biology. During my academic career, I have written and/or contributed to several research articles. Also, for the past year, I have been working as a teaching assistant (TA) at a university, where I hold office hours for students to come in and ask questions on epidemiological concepts that may not be so clear. Because this subject area requires both knowledge of science and math, I am well-versed in various areas of science and math.
I am an enthusiastic person by nature. I love meeting with students and learning from them as they learn from me. I believe this establishes a relationship based on ... read more

I have a collaborative personality and strong interpersonal and communication skills. As a graduate with a dual major, I am able to bring background knowledge and experience from both the general education and special education perspective. In addition to the collaborative training I received, Towson has adequately prepared me to be a facilitator of active learning in other ways. My dual degree afforded sufficient training for me to asses and provide differentiated instruction to all students based on their individual learning needs, whether they are exceptional learners or not.

Currently I teach first grade in Lexington School District One. I work everyday to help struggling readers and challenge others. I have been “formally” teaching for one year. Before I began teaching in Lexington, I attended the University of South Carolina for a BA in Psychology and MAT in Early Childhood Education. During this time I completed many observations and practicums. Many of these projects involved me working one on one with children to assist and help them learn a new skill. During college and high school I work with the after school program at the YMCA assisting students with their homework, planning activities, etc. I also worked at many local daycares as a caregiver. I am actively involved with many professional organizations and have attended conferences across the state. I like to think of myself as a life-long learner!

As a high school student, I tutored ESL students. I went on to college to earn a BA degree in Elementary Education. I had 3 practicum experiences among grades 3-5, and completed student teaching in grade 4. Within the 4th grade classroom I taught math, reading, spelling, social studies, writing, and science. While student teaching, I also spent extra time outside of the classroom tutoring students who were in need of more assistance in various subject areas including math, reading, and writing. I have been an active volunteer in my church since middle school, working with children ages 3-11.
I fully believe that given the appropriate instruction, all students can learn and succeed. Not only do I think it is important for students to gain a full understanding of concepts, but also confidence in themselves as they apply what they learn. I believe that hands-on learning is what is be ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a passion for education and learning. I have always excelled in mathematics from elementary to collegiate levels. I LOVE math. I love to do math and I love to teach math. I was even on a math competition team in middle school. I have a strong statistical background from my Psychology studies and have taught Middle Grades Math to 8th graders. I taught Standard 8 Plus and Algebra 1 to 8th grade students in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School system. I also tutored Psychology students in Statistics at the collegiate level during my time as a teaching assistant.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and showing them something new. I feel a sense of reward when a student of mine realizes that they have a new concept. When the lightbulb comes on it is the best feeling in the world. I believe that given the right tools and the right environment all students can ... read more

I learned to be a more creative, patient and more caring teacher during that school year. Rather, then march though a list of state standards I learned to improve reading and math skills, while building a child’s self esteem. I learned how to praise a student often and effectively. I watched how when a child’s self esteem improves their academies and behavior improves. I believe that my experiences with students with learning differences will make me an asset to any school.
Personally, I am dyslexic and despite my learning differences I was able to attend law school and pass the South Carolina Bar exam. During my first year of teaching I was disappointed to learn how little time and energy is given to students who learn differently. My second year I choose to work at the John de la Howe School for at-risk youth and I loved every minute of that year: the school was designed to te ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I just recently completed my first semester of teaching University 101 at the University of South Carolina. This course allowed me to find out how much I enjoy teaching. I like to be able to make a personal connection with the students and learn about their learning styles and much more. I feel like each person who is in a teaching capacity has the ability to motivate and help each child in the classroom. It is just up to each one of us to decide how much time and effort we are willing to put into each student. As for me, I am always willing to help each student reach their full potential, even if that means a little extra work from me.
I graduated with an M.Ed. in Higher Education and Student Affairs from the University of South Carolina in May of 2010. Directly after graduating, I began a career as an Academic Advisor in the Moore School of Business Undergraduate Division at the ... read more
