I have tutored over 20 years in addition to my classroom teaching. The past two years I've been a private tutor and homework coach. I have taught in Atlanta and City of Decatur Schools.

I was apart of my high school tuturing club. I havent had any formal experience but my SAT score was 1863. I passed my Georgia High School Graduation Test with honors. I was pushed ahead in school to the point that I was done with regular classes and could have graduated a year early. I love history and english, 2 of my most favorite subjects and because I loved them so much, I excell in both.

Ph.D., Religion, Emory University (2013) M.A., Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (2005) B.A., History, Taylor University (2002) My career as a tutor began when I was looking for a way to support myself during my graduate studies in the Boston area. After signing on with a local company, I discovered my passion for finding better ways to help students overcome difficulties and achieve their goals. I enjoyed the challenges of adapting content to the individual needs of each student, of pioneering new ways of communicating ideas, and of working closely with parents to ensure that my efforts were effective. Sensing the need for more structure, I later moved to Kaplan. In more recent years, I have tutored independently. Perhaps the most rewarding part of the work is sharing in the success of my clients. Students of mine have increased their cumulative SAT scores by as ma

I have lived in Italy for 17 years and Brazil for 5 years and have worked in more than 35 countries during a 24 year career. I have taught courses of history, geography, political developments, culture, art and basic languages (Italian and Brazilian Portuguese) through special seminars or special travel programs designed to see and touch the items one is learning about. In most cases, when I teach a subject, I have visited the place or seen the work(s) that I am discussing. I have taught adolescents, yound adults and even elders and have done so in the USA, almost every country in Western Europe, and in Brazil. I was heavily involved in preparing and delivering seminars for the US Navy, University of Maryland (Europe), and several Studies Abroad Programs. I am enthusiastic and like to tell a story so that details make sense with context. Learning items by heart is harder than when one l

My teaching style is a mixture of strict and lenient. I try to form a connection with students and apply that to my teaching method (i.e. incorporating a similar hobby in a question in order for the student to understand the material better). I expect my students to give me and the other students respect- never speaking while others are speaking, no disruptions, ect. This method of teaching has shown effective and a fun learning environment. I base my curriculum around the importance of reading. Reading is the easiest and most effective way of obtaining knowledge and using it in the world. I have had the honor of working with many kids in regards to a variety of fields. My experiences taught me responsibility, patience, the importance of learning and education, and much more. The various teaching opportunities I have been fortunate to have have impacted my social and educational lives; I
