I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I began tutoring elementary, middle school, and high school students. For the past 5 years I have been professionally tutoring elementary school through freshman college students. I partner with local elementary - high schools: E.W. West Elementary, Landmark Academy,Langston High School, and Mills Springs Academy. I also work with Graduation Counselors to prepare their students to take ACT, ASVAB, and SAT tests. My students say that I make learning easy to understand. I believe every student has the potential to suceed. The key to their success is to teach by using the method in which they learn. I tutor Algebra, Geometry, Trigon

I am a very logical and result oriented person. If you are interested in seeing better results from the scores, tests and believe in making rapid change in your thought process, you may want to try me. I believe learning should be fun and not all work. Not all answers will be shortcuts that would involve lot of memorizing, but very systematic and logical way of approaching a problem for the student to gain interest and at the same time be able to address any problem out of the box. I do understand that not all students are the same and each one of them would require different teaching model to reach eventually to the same high levels. I have given several exams in and out of the country and there are definite tips that can help the student to achieve better results with the same knowledge level. I have scored over 95 percentiles in almost all the exams that I gave, some times wi

I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College. More info will follow later. To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning.

As a professional educator, I strive for "excellence without compromise". I believe that learning is about opening each person toward recognizing the potential within, and then taking steps to actualize that potential. My ability seems to be that of communicating and inspiring others to grow. I have combined my academic background with my other passions, music and writing. Thus I bring the outlook and freshness of a lifelong learner to my teaching. Some of the areas I tutor are:language arts, reading comprehension and critical thinking, arts, essay writing, social studies, psychology and sociology, SAT writing/verbal strategies and GRE. In addition to my academic and arts connection, I work with the concept of "learning how to learn". Essentially each child that I tutor I endeavor to assist them in learning what type of learning style that he or she possesses. Every person uses the m

I find an interactive, Socratic teaching style in which I encourage the student to discover the answers on their own to understand why something works the way it does is a very effective approach for me rather than just lecturing, particularly for younger learners. I find it equally important for students to understand the why of what they are learning as well as the how and the what. I believe that students' multiple intelligences should be harnessed and that if students don't understand information presented initially, it is up to the teacher to find different ways of presenting the information so that the student can make it his or her own. I have over 11 years of experience providing in home tutoring to individual high school, elementary school, and middle school students as well as adults for test preparation as well as for academic subject preparation. I have also had 6 years of

In college, my neuroscience major has often taken me out of my comfort zone and pushed me intellectually; I have received tutoring every step of the way. My college experience in addition to tutoring students in pre-school, elementary school, and high school has really made me appreciate the fact that there is no cookie-cutter approach to learning. I believe a good tutor's role is to take a concept and teach it in a way that appeals specifically to the student. In addition, I believe at the core of effective learning is learning through examples and practice, practice, practice. After working with pre-schoolers, I pride myself on patience and persistence! Before coming to Emory, I grew up in a struggling Memphis public school system. Although I was lucky enough to have plenty of resources, support, and guidance to enable me to excel, I knew many students did not have the same fortune

As a public school teacher for approximately 20 years+, my experiences have been very extensive. I taught students of all abilities ranging from 1st grade to post-secondary (two-year college program). I have earned a BA degree in English and an MS degree as a Reading Specialist. My teaching experiences include instructing English, Reading, Writing, GED, Adult Education, ESL, and Early Childhood Education. As a GED instructor, I successfully taught Mathematics, Science Reading, Social studies Reading, and Algebra. During the last year, I tutored students in Reading and basic Education. Because I believe in the success of all students regardless of present levels, my students have had significant success in all areas and have gained positive feelings and confidence in themselves as life-long learners. I love children and want to impart to them a desire to keep striving for the best.

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. My degrees, in both Political Science and Interdisciplinary Social Science, have given me insight in many areas, specifically, politics, history, hum

I have always loved to learn and enjoy sharing this love with others. I believe that a successful teacher is an individual who is perceptive and flexible. A teacher's first job is to interpret a child's learning behavior, and his or her second job is to teach. Not all children learn the same, and it is important to recognize and embrace this. With this in mind, my teaching philosophy is based on creating the appropriate learning environment by ensuring that the student is comfortable. Additionally, I believe in creatively presenting information, and working to build upon knowledge that is already in place. With the right conditions, all children can learn and be successful. 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

Teaching children and teenagers is a passion for me. It gives me an opportunity to enrich their theoretical and practical knowledge, by transferring my experiences. I am down to earth, patient and a good listener. I tend to anticipate the needs of students, in order to efficiently respond to their immediate issues. I see each session as a new experience, a new challenge and an opportunity for sharing my knowledge. My methodology is to identify student's specific needs in a moment, gather all information related to the subject, and then transmit the most relevant parts to the student. Afterwards I always evaluate effectiveness of my tutoring session. I have been working in the Accounting field for the past 10 years. I have been tutoring Accounting, Math and French language since college, and recently included tutoring in English reading and writing. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and skil

I think I can relate to the student because at some point of your life you will need someone to help you understand a topic a little better or lend a hand in teaching the subject in their terms to help you maximize your potential. Sometimes a student just needs that extra push, but done in a way that makes the student understand the material giving them the added confidence that they can be successful in school. My parents and relatives who were educators themselves and taught many of the subjects we took in school helped my brothers and I. I think that they instilled those same qualities that I use when I tutor. As a son, grandson and nephew of those who have been educators on the high school and collegiate level, I understood what study skills were required of me to become an exceptional student. Being the eldest son, my brothers leaned on me to assist them with homework and project
