I have been in educator for over 10 years. I started teaching because of my volunteer work at the Memphis Literacy Council. I love teaching because I believe that education is the key to our country's future in this global competitive marketplace. We must prepare our children for the challenges of tomorrow because we live in such a dynamic world. I believe that every child can learn regardless of his or her situation. When given enough time on task and effective, instruction all kids learn. This is what I do.

I spend much of time making the student understand that it is okay to feel behind in a subject and that the student should believe in himself. This belief is built on continued practice on fundamentals that I watch them go through but only ask questions when I see them going astray. Everyone needs to learn the material for his or herself. My place is to make sure they learn the right methods to solve the problem and ensure that they know those methods beyond the tutoring session.
I have been tutoring professional for six years and teaching for five. I am certified by the state of Tennessee to teach secondary math. I have worked with all levels of students, from remedial to gifted. I have worked from age 7 through adult learners and had a positive impact at each age and level.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am able to devise a teaching strategy based on the individual's needs. I am adept at taking abstract ideas and placing them into a real world setting. I am patient and understanding. I will cater my teaching to meet a child's needs. I believe that all children have a willingness and capacity to learn and at times they may just get lost in the system.
I have a BS in biology, however I have a passion for teaching. In 2006, I was a Teach Tennessee fellow. This program's intent is to fast track degreed professionals into an education career. I spent some time teaching in the public school system. I had to resign my postion, due to family a family situation. I continued my work as a substitute teacher. I love working with students and appreciate the moment when they finally understand a concept with which they have struggled.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have discovered that every students is capable of achieving greatness if someone will take the time and effort to learn their learning style. I pride myself in being able to break things down to the most basic levels if necessary in order to reach a student. Often you have to know a child's personality, background, and home life in order to understand what he or she relates to. I don't believe in teaching a subject, I believe in teaching a student. I also do not believe in giving up. If the first method doesn't work then we will continue to try until something clicks and that child grasps the material and excels at it.
I have a BA in History/English from the University of Mississippi. I have been a teacher for the past year in Tate County Mississippi. This experience has allowed me to develop a teaching style to reach all types of learners. I have also been a tutor in English ... read more

My teaching style can best be described as varied! I believe that children learn in numerous ways, so as an educator it is my responsibility to provide multiple experiences - visual, oral, tactile, etc. A person walking by my classroom would see children smiling, working in groups, accomplishing projects, and would hear noise.
After graduating from Vanderbilt University I taught 5th grade for 2 years while working on my Master's at TSU. I then moved to the Knoxville area and taught K until my son was born in 2000. We then moved to Wisconsin where I taught in various after school programs until my 2 children were old enough for preschool. I then went back part time and taught 4 K until my 3rd child was born in 2005. Throughout this entire time I tutored various children ages 8 - 15 years if age.

As a graduate from a small private high school (graduating Salutatorian) and elite college (graduating Cum Laude), I was afforded the great opportunity to work closely with both my professors and peers. The intimate settings and ongoing relationships encouraged dedication and focus. Complementing my BA in Business (Accounting/Finance) degree with a minor in Anthropology/Sociology enhanced my ability to understand and effectively communicate among personality and learning types. My range of experience spans from high school age well into adulthood and across many subjects, including, but not limited to, English, Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus, French and comprehensive studies for the GED.
My background in sociology and tutoring combined with my client service experience has provided me with a unique ability to understand and communicate across all age levels and learning types. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am certified to teach in both California and Texas in a K-8th grdae classroom. In California I taught in a self contained 5th grade classroom. In Texas I taught 7th grade math. I also hold a supplementary credential in California for Business.
I am a strong believer in teaching a student how to learn. By that I mean, students not only need to know a specific subject matter but also how to aquire and use knowledge. My background is mostly in math and it is what I enjoy teaching the most. I like to use manipulatives to teach. I think students learn better if they have a "hands-on" approach.

Last year, I taught at Roscomare Road Elementary School, where I gained valuable experience working with students in grades K-5. In addition, I have worked as a K-8 substitute teacher for Shelby County Schools in Memphis, TN. After two years of working at a California distinguished school like Roscomare and substitute teaching, I feel confident in my ability to teach to accentuate the learning strengths of each student by tailoring instruction to meet the individual needs of all diverse learners.
Overall, I feel that it is important to develop the intellect, talents, and character of each student in a community of learning dedicated to principles of academic excellence. My philosophy for learning is that each child is unique, and each child learns in a different way. As an educator, it is my goal to help students discover his or her individuality, while working alongside them to ma ... read more

I have tutored many students from many walks of life and enjoy the confidence they gain when they improve their grades. After my first two years of lackluster studying at the University of Mississippi, I had gained bad study habits that needed to be reformed. I attended tutoring sessions regularly at the University of Memphis and my grades consequently improved. I enjoyed the boosted level of confidence I gained as I realized the material I was studying was not impossible, and I strive to teach other students the same principle.
I enjoy the challenge of tutoring students struggling with a subject. As a student who had much trouble understanding math and biology, I learned various techniques over the years to become a better thinker and researcher in each discipline studied. I wish to teach others how they can accomplish the tasks in their subjects and that it is not a question of w ... read more

As a Chemical Engineer I have a diverse set of skills upon which to draw upon for a variety of subjects. As a substitute teacher, I have been called upon to engage students on a one-on-one basis in the classroom at both the middle and high school level. I know first hand that most students just need a little more coaching outside the classroom to raise their level of excellence. I college I tutored my fraternal brothers in chemistry, free of charge. Science and math would be my preferred courses. As a Quality Engineer I tutored and trained my auditors in the audit fundamentals for over a decade.
I am also a poet and an inspirational and motivational speaker. I have written poems for my coworkers for twenty years at my employer. I would say that my style of teaching is creative. I stress the fundamentals, making sure of the foundation, but remain creative in the approach that ... read more

I received a bachelors degree from The University of Memphis in integrative studies in the fall of 2009. Upon graduation, I was required to complete two semesters of student teaching. Also, during my four years of college, I tutored three different students, one in reading and the other two in English. From August 2009 through January 2011, I was employed at a child care facility where I was director but spent most of my time tutoring and assisting the after school kids with their homework and projects. My strongest subjects are English and Reading. However I'm qualified in all subjects kindergarten through sixth grade. I'm currently enrolled in graduate school at The University of Memphis.
My passion is teaching, encouraging, and motivating students. I believe that all students have the potential to succeed in life and reach their dreams and goals. I feel that education is the ke ... read more
