Drawing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Wise, NC

I have historically been a sketch artist. This talent led to me into graphic design for advertising. I later majored in advertising and worked several internships and practicums with a variety of ad agencies and publication, including Southern Living. Over half of my 24-year is comprised of creative management positions. Recently, I decided to get back into higher education to earn my Masters degree in graphic design. I consider myself more of a facilitator than a dictator but I do expect my students to show initiative. My goal is for every student to succeed.

Still Life, Portraits, Nonobjective, Scenery. In Nassau, Bahamas, after graduating from high school in 2006, my grandmother encouraged me to take an Adobe Photoshop class that was being held at a nearby Technical School. I had know clue of how powerful a tool Photoshop was, but I thought I'd give attending that class a try because my grandmother told me that graphic design was the industry of the future. I fell in love with Photoshop's photo-manipulation capabilities, and I crashed about 3 computers in that year playing with this powerful design software like a kid with a coloring book. Fastforward 10 years and now I am a Photoshop expert. I've attained a Associates Degree in Digital Media Art, a Bachelors Degree in Studio Art, and I have added many other graphic design programs to my skill set. Graphic Design is just as much my passion as it is my job, and although I consider myself

I have a natural passion for educating youth of all ages and find joy in helping them succeed. No child is unreachable when it comes to connecting with them. The only true difficulty may be finding their learning style. Teaching is easy when you know your audience. Our country has put our youth in a state of desperation with regard to their level of education, desire to obtain higher levels of education, and the ability to compete internationally. I want to be a part of the solution in reaching our youth and reassuring them that they can still be and achieve anything they seek. Education is the central focus of my everyday life. I have obtained a BS in Management-Health Care/HR and 5 Associate degrees in Business Administration, Administrative Office Technology, Medical Office Technology, Legal Secretary, and College Transfer.

As a graduate with a BS degree in Elementary Education, I have gained knowledge in the practice of teaching elementary school. I have been able to observe classrooms as well as student teach. I was able to put my knowledge to use while I student taught by planning all lessons, implementing fun and relevant activities as well as integrating subjects. I am more knowledgeable in reference to teaching elementary students and implementing useful plans to not only teach them the needed information, but to make it fun and in a way that all students would be able to learn. I believe that all children can learn and all children are capable of learning. But, all students learn differently, so, I feel that by changing lessons and incorporating different things into each one to accomodate most, or all, students is necessary. When children are able to learn and gain experiences on their own, with lit

Teaching is my passion I enjoy seeing the end result, when the student sees what they have accomplished. That is my reward. I understand that people in general usually fall into 1 or more of these learning styles: Visual/Verbal, Visual/ Nonverbal, Tactile/Kinesthetc, or Auditory/Verbal. I personally use the style that best suits my student and work from that point. However, I am very enthusiastic and the passion is just so exhuberant through my teaching that it becomes contagious to the student that is learning. I earned a degree in Biology, which has fully equipped me for tutoring to children who have difficulties in any subject, but especially science. By being a Biology major I was exposed to all types of seminars, scientific research, labs and other various types of learning implements that have been beneficial in my teaching practices. In the past two years I have privately tutore

As a staff accountant for a large, global corporation (sales revenue approx. $250 million/yr) I have very much experience in all areas of finance and accounting. I specialize in journal entry writing and reconciliations. I reconcile both bank account statements and account balances with my master bank reconciliation having approximately $40 million debits and credits monthly. I love teaching and showing people how easy accounting can be and how much it helps you in real life situations. Most students get overwhelmed easily with double entry accrual accounting. I find it best to relate the material directly to the students personal life purchase and income habits. This way they can have a hands on approach and hopefully find the rules easy and helpful in daily financial situations.

I feel I am a quick and good judge of what style teaching helps a student learn. I am very hands-on and very willing to adapt my teaching to meet the needs of the student. I am able to explain things with ease. It want to help students build their self-esteem as well as their education. As a Theater Arts Educator, I have worn many hats. It never ceases to amaze me that each lesson I prepare for my theater classes also includes a grammar, math, science and history lesson too! Theater works on building one's self-esteem. I feel that self-esteem is a crucial building block for all learning. In addition to theater, I have taught public speaking, speech and debate as well as reading. I have experience teaching students of all ages.

I enjoy working with children and was a Teaching Assistant in New York. My class was small so this gave me a chance to work one-on-one with the students in order to give each child the attention they needed. Some of my duties included preparing lesson plans as well as teaching the lessons to the special needs children. I enjoyed assisting the children with any questions they had and tutored them with their homework. I feel that I have a natural teaching ability and can be helpful to a child that needs assistance with their lessons. I believe that children today need special attention when it comes to education. Unfortunately schools are often too crowded and the children that have alternative learning styles are often lost in the back. I enjoy sitting down with children and giving them the full attention that they deserve. It is important to recognize the learning style of each ind

I believe that there are several learning modalities. In response to this, I use an experimental approach to teaching. This enables the student to fully engage in the material in a way that allows them to understand and apply the information. I also find it necessary to create a learning environment that is relaxed, non-stressful and creative. Some possibilties are: natural sunlight, healthy snacks (fruit or nuts, if non allergic), water, a short walk during a break, and a good laugh. After graduating from North Carolina State University, I began to apply and share the value of learning and education with my community. I developed an edible schoolyard curriculum and garden that integrated math, science, and social studies as part of the core curriculum. The elementary students were highy enthusiastic in the opportunity to engage in this experiential approach to education. I then moved

I love working with all children. I enjoy changing my style to fit the specific need of the child and helping them in the way they learn the best. I want to be able to help them learn to become independent problem solvers. I want to help them become an asset to the team even when they are in the classroom and I am not there to coach them through that problem they can use what they have learned and be the best student in the class. I have graduated from North Carolina State University and earned a bachelors degree in Chemistry. While studying I have learned math and science as my forte but have also taken English, Spanish and history courses. I have written many reports in both my major classes and outside of them. I have been involved in many programs that help enhance children learning. I have worked diligently in the community specifically with underprivileged children to give t
