Desktop Publishing is one of my top subjects! Certification in Desktop Publishing and Adobe Indesign, Penn Foster University

After receiving my teaching certificate in 2001, I worked with fourth and second graders in Clayton County Public Schools as a classroom teacher. For a total of six years, I taught students in grades K-5, trained teachers to use technology, and served as the webmaster. After working in Clayton County Public Schools, I worked in Dekalb County Public School System as a classroom teacher. There, I worked with fourth graders to meet Georgia Performance Standards in all subject areas. I also was the trainer and webmaster for the school. As a former graduate student of Educational Technology, and a recipient of an Ed.S. and M.Ed. in Educational Technology, I was excited about having access to tools that I had found helped students learn. As a former tutor of Sylvan Learning Center, I have worked with students to assist them in learning skills that will help them become successful. I ha ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During the last 10 years I have worked with all levels of students, preschool through college levels. These areas include reading, math, english, psychology, science and social studies. I am a self starter and have worked with parents when I owned/operated my private daycare. I have since then worked with children in low poverty communities in Atlanta Georgia, in order to provide an alternative method to learning to ensure that children receive the appropriate level of understanding of various subjects.
What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education ... read more

I was a 7th Grade Life Science and Social Studies teacher for 4 years in both Georgia and South Carolina. I also tutored several students after school and over the summers to increase their understanding of the subjects and their grades. I was also the Science Fair Chairperson/Coordinator for my middle school. I also worked collaboratively with numerous 7th grade Science teachers and administrators to raise student achievement levels on state standardized test over 10% in four years to achieve the goal of over 90% of students in every science class meeting the state standard. I am certified in Elementary Education K-5, Middle Grades Science, and Middle Grades Social Studies.
I am a very strong believer of hands-on learning. I do reference textbooks as well, but the majority of my lessons involve labs, projects, and hands on experiences. My lessons are always references to rea ... read more

I have two plus years of tutoring experience and ten plus years of practical accounting and business experience. While attending DeVry University, I served as a tutor for Math and Accounting.

I also acquired some experience with special needs when I worked after school as a personal aide to a non-verbal teenage girl with severe autism.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task.
As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respectiv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. I took British Lit in my undergrad courses. I have a lot of experience with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and some exposure to Publishing. I could tutor basic computer skills in these areas.
I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible fo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught in the elementary and middle school system for 12 years. My experience includes teaching at many grade levels, including online instruction for elementary students. I have taught inclusion classes and EIP classes, which allowed me to raise the scores of students in those classes tremendously. I used testing data to guide the instruction of students in these classes. In 2009, 90% of my third grade students mastered standards on all portions of the Georgia Criterion Referenced Competency Test. In 2010 91% of my fifth grade EIP Reading/ LA class mastered standards on the Georgia Criterion Referenced Competency Test, with 50% coming in at the beginning of the year on second or third grade level.

My style of teaching involves discussion, reading, writing, and hands on. if possible. I strive to get my students to feel comfortable which I find brings out creative thinking. I have experience teaching students with slow or difficult learning abilities and students with handicaps such as blind or deaf. My department dean saw my abilities in working with special needs students and placed the students in my classes. I believe one-on-one teaching builds trust with students and relaxes them. I motivate students by installing a positive outlook in the students mind. While in the USN, I and was selected by the Admiral of the Naval War College as the Command Career Counselor where I guided enlisted sailors in their naval career.

A Little Bit About Me...

It is my belief that I do not truly master subjects until I can teach it to others. Thus, I view tutoring as an essential component of the learning process. With respect to my tenure as a tutor in the community of Tuskegee, Alabama and on-campus,this has certainly been the case. From helping to ease students of their confusion in the laboratory, to leading review sessions in front of spacious lecture halls, my experiences as a tutor have augmented my interpersonal as well as technical skills. The responsibilities inherent to tutoring have motivated me to enhance my knowledge, question my preconceptions, and strengthen my understanding of intergrated sciences and reading material.
Tutoring has taught me that perseverance and patience are the keys to tackling tough situations, and I try to pass that along to others. I am very versatile when it comes to teaching various age groups. I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents.
For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I ... read more
