Musical Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Alpharetta, GA

Assists in a variety of musical areas I believe that every student learns in their own unique way and at their own pace. I try to cater to that thought when teaching and encourage each student to become his or her own teacher. I think it is important to have a strong fundamental base, but music is more than notes and fingerings. The study of music can give one the power to look at life’s problems through a different lens and give a fresh perspective. Now that I am out of school I see more clearly that there is never an ending point to education. All of those years of studying are not just to pass a test or earn a degree. The purpose is to apply the lessons we learn and create the best life possible. To quote the great Willy Wonka, "we are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams." I have taught private flute lessons for 10+ years from beginners to advanced and children

I'm a recent college graduate, soon entering into a Secondary English education program. I have extensive experience with academic writing and research during my undergraduate career. I have engaged in informal tutoring with my peers and have gained excellent writing skills in particular. I am particularly skilled with one-on-one communication and will be developing my teaching skills this coming year through the MAT program at Agnes Scott. I concentrate on each student's unique strengths (as opposed to weaknesses only) in order help students their own skills. Students must feel personally invested in their education, and I hope to be able to instill that in all students.

My style is flexible. I view all students as teachers, and therefore adapt my style continuously based on the student's experience, mood, personality, and goals. I strive to help students create "break-throughs" and "Aha!" moments. I believe that everyone is capable of learning anything when given encouragement, belief, and tools. I funded my college education by working in several restaurants, where I became head trainer, within months, at every location. This parlayed into a professional career, training clients in Medical Software Applications, then designing, documenting and training applications. I currently consult for a customized computer training firm. I have been a licensed skydiving instructor for the past year - which definitely gives me immediate feedback on the effectiveness of my instruction!

I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in English, with a Concentration in Creative Writing. As a student of Kentucky State University, I have explored my passion through words (i.e. Poetry).The Education that I've received from my University, allowed me to not only be successful in my field, but I have written over 100 Poems; which I'm in the process of getting them copyright, as well as published. I've tutored during my College years and most of my students have Graduated from College as well..that means more to me, than anything that I've experience because I've had a chance to motivate young people. I love working with children because they have such a youthfulness that is full of life and ready to take on new challenges. I have worked in numerous leadership roles and One of the aspects I try to instill within the mindset of children, is that English is not as boring as they may think. I

When I graduated from Emory University, I pursued my teaching job with a sense of excellence and ambition. Within the last three years, I have been able to teach kids, ages 5 to 16, to gain self-confidence through the performing arts. I enjoy working with children of all ages, and I have observed that each child learns differently. It has been amazing to see the impact that I have been able to have on my students' lives.

Education is of utmost importance to me, and I believe that all children can learn, but some lack the study skills necessary to succeed in school. While in pursuit of my psychology major at Converse College, I attended various classes and seminars on learning styles. I feel that each child has its own potential, and if we as educators can empower students to feel as though they can succeed, great things happen. During my undergraduate studies, I was selected the Departmental Tutor for French language by the Converse College Foreign Language Department. I also taught an entry-level French "drill" class for four years throughout my undergraduate experience. For three years after my graduation from college, I worked with at-risk youth as a wilderness instructor, and also a behavior modification specialist. During my work with at-risk youth, I also tutored such subjects as science, Engli

My years of experience have taught me that no two students are alike, especially in the 'tutoring' arena. I find the students strengths and create a positive learning environment that students actually enjoy! My students tell me they can't believe how fast the time goes; and look forward to the next lesson. My teaching style creates a feeling of well-being, confidence and self esteem that the student can 'build on' every week. My students leave me each week with a sense of accomplishment and a big smile. And I too, always look forward to the next lesson! My students succeed. I was introduced to teaching as a guitar teacher and loved the field of education ever since. My first school experience was teaching 7th and 8th grade social studies in Queens, N.Y.in 1979. Finally, I found my niche in high school teaching various subjects such as Physical Science, Biology, Social Studies and tutori

I absolutely adore children and love watching them grow intellectually. I have a passion for teaching and thoroughly take pleasure in working with children of all ages and all levels. I sincerely believe that each child has the capability to learn and each child has his or her own personal learning style. I believe that it is my duty to help any child explore his or her own learning abilities and grow. I believe that learning should be constructive and can be joined with the theories and ideas of ever day life so it can be easily understood. My goal is to make a significant difference in every student’s life. I have over six years of experience in corporate training, consumer sales, and delivering high quality service. I have developed and been the leader of numerous customer initiative programs. After the birth of my son I took time off from the corporate world to dedicate all my time t

I believe in short-term goal attainment. I first assess what the student feels they know, then look at what needs to be learned and from that I build a goal-oriented task set that should result in a learned skill set. I am also very good at thinking outside the box in order to get the skill set learned and to effect "true learning" as opposed to parroted learning. I taught college-level students in the classroom and in an aquatic environment for three years. I also taught aspiring instructors on an ad hoc basis during that period. I have classroom experience with high school children in a special education setting, involving an extreme amount of patience and a willingness to find different ways in which to impart learning on non-traditional students.

I enjoy working with all learning styles, and have had training in working with many types of exceptional learners, including those with various learning disabilities, ADD and ADHD, ASD, blindness, and giftedness. I am certified to teach both music (PreK-12th grade) and mathematics (6th grade-12th grade). I utilized my positions teaching music to also assist students that were having difficulty in Mathematics and Language Arts during my free periods. Throughout school, I have tutored the other students in my classes after-school when they were having difficulties. I enjoy catering to various learning styles, and do so with passion and fun! If you have a student that is frustrated or bored with the classroom environment, and you feel that they have not received enough individual attention, I will help them succeed.

As a volunteer for St. Joseph's Home for Boys and Upward Bound, I have gained experience working with elementry middle and high school students on a personal level. I feel that my ability to reach the minds of youth is great because I speak to them not at them. I encourage them as well to question my ability as a teacher and leader while exhibiting the highestly levels of respect and understanding for others thought patterns. Although, my degree is in Construction Management and Civil Engineering I have a diverse background in teaching: physics, history, finance, algebra, technical writting, and 1 of my favorites public speaking.
