Professional Soldier, Tutor, and Mentor

As an adult learner, and Soldier in the United States Army, I have much experience with non traditional instruction and learning. My experience in the United States Army has increased my focus and academic knowledge, in which I wish to share with others. With a little dedication and motivation a person can transform his or her academic weaknesses into strengths.
I have an innovative hands on approach to teacher that is geared to the needs of the individual.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 opportunity to assist a professor in administering a freshman course, I applied to teach high school in Pasco County. I taught world history and psychology for one year before returning to school for my Master of Arts degree in History. I continued tutoring on the side, but spent most of my time assisting professors in the Department of History at Winthrop University as a Graduate Assistant where I edited exams and papers for undergraduate students. During the last year of my program, I worked with an SES program in South Carolina, tutoring both reading and math.
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 ... read more

Learning about the students I teach and listening to their experiences helps me to consider ways of making course material relevant and fostering critical thinking skills. I am passionate about finding the most effective ways of stimulating and sustaining growth among those who enter my classroom. As a teacher, I am attentive to the fact that learning is a complex process and work to be flexible, adapting my approaches according to the needs of my students. I believe it is crucial for teachers to cultivate learning partnerships with students. Teaching is empowering students to take responsibility for their learning, inspiring courage to grow intellectually, cultivating curiosity, providing opportunities to develop relationships, clarifying values, uplifting the spirit, and influencing action.
I have been employed as a dedicated educator for the past four years. During this tim ... 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".

I believe that effective teaching is comprised of two necessary and related elements: knowledge of the content and ability to communicate it. Knowing the material is not enough to be effective in teaching it; likewise, communication skills won't work alone. Thus, I take care to understand the concepts I expect to cover and to make them understandable to the students. I organize my presentations with the student's learning in mind and keep my knowledge up to date. My teaching allows students to learn by doing by having them work on problems and cases that allow them to evaluate alternatives and to arrive at answers logically.
As a graduate in Business/Accounting and Management I have worked in financial management in corporate and higher education sectors for many years. During the summer I volunteered and taught classes in Upward Bound Programs to disadvantaged students in English, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a genuine love for teaching and sharing my knowledge with students. I am extremely patient and serve as a listening ear for students. First, I allow the student to express his or her learning needs. Then, I assess the student’s needs and determine the best way to tackle the situation. Once a plan has been established and implemented, I measure the effectiveness of the plan and make adjustments as necessary.
I have always excelled in writing and grammar. While at Duke University, I had a minor in English. I currently work at a large manufacturing company as the copywriter/communications coordinator. In this role, I prepare press releases, articles, and other corporate documents that require me to have excellent writing and analytical skills. I also work as an online instructor and have taught at a local college. I tutor local college students and assist them with res ... read more

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 teach students with learning differences and behavioral issues.
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 w ... read more

Directly after graduating, I began a career as an Academic Advisor in the Moore School of Business Undergraduate Division at the University of South Carolina. I currently still hold this job.

Over the past few months I have been involved with substitute teaching in Richland School District 2. Since being involved I have gotten very much involved in every aspect of teaching. I have been requested at serveral of the district schools because of the way I respond to being in the classroom and working with children of age grades and ages. I am very excited about being in the schools on a daily basis and plan to take things a step further and pursue a full time teaching position in the upcoming school through an accrediated university program.

I strive to work with each student on an individual abilities format. I believe every student with a desire to learn can achieve their education goals. I provide a positive learning environment and am always willing to "go the extra mile" for any student with what I call "the yearning for learning"! It is my considered opinion that children can tell if the teacher is really interested in them or just collecting a salary and will perform better for a truly committed educator. Having committed the rest of my life to the education of the students in this state,this, simply stated is my life's goal: "I cannot provide all the good the world needs but the world needs all the good that I can do." --anonymous
I went back to college to pursue a career in education. While in college I tutored basic math skills to college students and worked with middle school students under a grant program c ... read more

My passion for education drives me to a place, where I desire to teach children the joy in reading. In the past I developed a program to teach reading and mathe through culinary arts. Through research I have been able to develop extensive grammatical skills. I believe that in order to bring about change, you have to become the change. Children are like a garden of flowers who need only to be natured and love. In that type of enviroment any child can learn.
Education is my passion an on this road of life I am always striving to learn new things. Working with children gives me an opportunity to impart knowledge through their surroundings. My style of teaching is both hands on and hands off, I like to give the child an opportunity to try it on their own and make suggestions. I believe that their voice is also important.
