Sociology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Atlanta, GA

My tutoring style is calm, patient, and encouraging. I have high expectations for my tutoring students. I also strive to discover how a student learns, whether it be seeing it, hearing it, feeling it, or a combination of the three. I am a proponent of hands-on learning, and believe that a tutor’s role is to be a facilitator of a student’s curiosity and achievements. Through implementing a learning plan with attainable goals based on the student’s background and individual learning style, he or she can not only successfully learn the material, but enjoy exploring the depths of the subject matter. I desire that my students have fun with their learning (creativity is key!) by providing them with the tools to achieve success.

I am a sociology doctoral student and have taught undergraduate sociology courses for 4 years. My senior faculty and student evaluations have confirmed that my teaching style is primarily interpersonal, fun, and relatable. I teach students from where they are, not where I think they should, while paying special attention to making sure they master course material. Students relate to me because, I too am a student (doctoral). Therefore, the classroom is often a space of exchanging ideas, talking about study strategies, and covering course material. My classrooms are extremely informal, but I have had extreme success with maintaining respect, eagerness, and I have even unintentionally inspired students to change their majors after taking my introductory classes. In the past six years, I have worked extensively on federally grant funding research (National Institute on Aging, National Insti

Most of my experience is informal with tutoring family members/church members/friends in whatever areas they were struggling. Nearly everyone was pleased with what I was able to teach them and they showed improvement. In addition to tutoring, I have also mentored. In particular, at Emory University, I have for three years served as a mentor to incoming freshmen. I have helped them become acclimated to Emory and have also helped them create plans for courses and future plans. Therefore, I am confident in my tutoring and mentoring abilities. I start out with discussing the area of weakness with the student and then try to investigate why this might be the area of weakness. Once this is discovered, I teach the student (through examples) until they understand the topic with which they need help. Then, I observe how they perform without my guidance and see if they have learned to complete pro

As a teacher of many different learning levels and age groups, I am able to provide tutoring to reach a diverse range of students. As an elementary teacher, I taught in all core subject matters (from Kindergarten to 5th grade). My grammatical skills were honed through my writing for journalism in high school, as well as the business English class I taught in the evenings for adults and high school students. I also taught an ESOL class for adult students that focused on reading, writing, and speaking in English. My teaching style is individualized to meet each student's needs. I am approachable and my students feel comfortable asking any question. I believe it is important to make the information relevant to the student's life, so that they are interested in the topic and motivated to learn. My goal is to let each student know that I care about their progess. It is rewarding to see academ

While pursuing a Master's degree in Sociology, I served as a tutor for at-risk student athletes who were struggling with their undergraduate courses. While I was technically hired by the athletic department to assist students with their English classes and preparation for the Regent's exam, I found myself tutoring students in a number of subjects. Some of these subjects included college algebra, history, biology, geology, and theatre. In addition to my experience as a tutor, I double majored in English and Speech and Theatre Arts as an undergraduate, and graduated magna cum laude. As a graduate student I maintained a 4.0 grade point average and finished a Master's thesis. I have extensive experience as a researcher and writer, and now work as a full-time education researcher at a univeristy. I have always loved to learn and enjoy sharing this love with others.

I love working with all children and I believe each child has the potential to excel. I acknowledge that a child may have his or her own way of learning and sometimes additional one-on-one attention is required in order for the student to grasp the concept that is being taught. I am a very patient individual and able to connect with all children. In a

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible for my students. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and a constructivist approach to learning inside my classroom and also with students I tutor. I believe all children can exceed thier dreams when given the appropriate materials to do so. A few good educators can make dreams a reality for any student. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of Florida State University and a current corps member in Teach For America I am very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education.
