Social Studies Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Avondale Estates, GA

I use a variety of teaching styles depending on the learning styles of the student. I urge students to become independent learners. I use a strong line of communication with the parents and urge the parents to become more involved with their students. Respect for the students is my first step in tutoring. I make suggestions for study skills and encourage the students to develop a love for learning. I have over 25+ years of teaching & educational experience. I am a retired teacher. 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.

My current and previous classes taught are (have been) intersections of social studies and sociology. 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, Nationa

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.
