I have been an elementary school teacher for the past four years. I teach at a private school in Columbia, SC. I currently teach fourth grade, and pride myself at being a phenomenal math teacher. Teaching academics is extremely important, but also teaching character education is important also. When a student is proud of themselves, they can become self motivated and willing to improve themselves.
Hands on

My comments on tutoring Life Science : Video demonstrations, diagrams, and vocabulary crosswords really work well.

I excel at identifying each students strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. I can quickly adapt or create lessons as needed. Most of my students look forward to our time together, as we have fun, but get our work done.
I homeschooled my three daughters for 10 years, right through high school. All three have gone on to Colllege and have excelled, making the Dean's list. In the work world, two have been highly praised for their writing skills. After homeschooling, I began tutoring. I have over 5 years experience and have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students, as well as adults preparing for exams such as the GED. I am experienced working with students who have IEP's and learning disabilities. Call or text at number below to discuss your needs.

I believe to be a good teacher you have to be creative, patient, challenging and persevering. I love working with students who have not had success in school and show them how to reach the goals they have set and taste success. I am good at pin-pointing what motivates students to achieve, and also give them the tools and encouragement to reach their goals.
In my ten years of experience as a teacher I have accomplished many things of which I am proud. My second year of teaching I was asked to implement a reading intervention program district-wide. After two years of that, I started a school within a school for at-risk students. The last two years of my career I helped to pilot and then implement single gender classrooms school-wide. Four years ago I decided to pursue my National Board certification. I have my MAT as well. In addition to these things, I also sponsored Bet ... read more

I enjoy working with all children and getting to know them individually. As their teacher, I try to guide the students’ learning while focusing on their needs and goals. I am patient and respectful when I present new information to them and as we “work it out” together. I also try to encourage them to become motivated learners by showing appreciation for their efforts and providing plain but empathetic feedback. I recognize that children have different learning styles and may respond best to different approaches. I also think that, given the right motivation and learning experiences, all children can reach their academic potential and experience a meaningful level of success.
Most of my professional teaching experience was with Lexington/Richland School District 5, where I substituted and taught General Music from 1997-2008. During that time I worked with students from Pre-K ... read more

I am an Early Childhood Educator with a strong background in reading and math instruction. I've been teaching in the public school system for four years. During the last four years I have tutored students in a high needs area and completed several trainings to accommodate students with special needs or deficits in their learning.
I am a hands-on teacher. I believe that a teacher must provide direst explicit instruction to the studens and deliver lessons in multiple means. The students will be able to discover and inquire the material given so that they can transfer skills across all content areas.

I have earned a bachelor degree in Biology from Harvey Mudd College and master degree in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. As a result of this, I have gained a high level of proficiency in the subjects of math and science. Additionally, I have extensive writing experience from writing many laboratory reports and essays from literature classes as well as publishing two scientific theses and a journal article. I have had experience tutoring high school level students who are first-generation college-bound. My responsibilities included monitoring their progress, helping them develop good study habits, assisting in various assignments and areas of weakness, and mentoring them about the college application process.
As a first generation college student, I understand the difficulties that many students have to face throughout their education. I am patient, caring, and passiona ... read more

Teaching children is the greatest fulfillment of all. Children are the future and they require great educators and mentors. Every child learns in their own way and I am here to help your child achieve success in their academic studies. I am attentive, accommodating, flexible, and patient. Every child is a unique individual with unique needs and backgrounds which is why I believe that teaching through an active, social process like constructivism is a great way for children to learn. I will help your child get to their own understanding of the content at hand. I look forward to making a positive impact on all of my students and helping them succeed.
Having graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry I have always been passionate about the sciences and getting others excited about them as well. I was awarded a number of grants ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am patient, and have an easy going personality. I enjoy working with children, and seeing them understand new concepts. Having worked with many children on a daily basis, I know that each child can succeed. I believe that learning is accomplished through both discovery, and in traditional methods. My goal is not only to help children learn, but also, to make a difference in their lives.
After completing my bachelor degree in Elementary Education, I began teaching First Grade. Each day I was responsible for a maximum of thirty children at a time. I taught Bible, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Arithmetic, Poetry, Science, Health, Art, History, and Writing. During the four years of teaching, I have tutored various children with learning difficulties. Each day I tutored children in Arithmetic, Phonics, Reading, and Writing.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having obtained a Masters Degree in Comparative Literature I have learned to best mold my teaching methodologies into the educational needs of my students. I have taught freshman German at the college level as well as have extensive experience tutoring while I worked at the University of South Carolina. Finally do to my various educational background (I have studied everything from literature to biochemistry) I am qualified to tutor in a wide variety of subjects having attended a math and science magnet school in south carolina for high school. At this school I was required to take upper level math each semester and college level physics, biology and chemistry.
I believe in teaching through doing. When I taught German I conducted my class almost completely in German (the beginner level), and while this would seem difficult for the students to learn my students scored excellentl ... read more

My main goal is not to tell a student they are wrong, but to tell them how they can make the answer correct. Being that my mother is a teacher, I have picked up many of her techniques while tutoring in the peer tutoring program at my college. I believe that it helps a student more if they can be taught by someone who has a similar background to them and are similar in age. I can provide them with an easy way to learn biological concepts just as I've learned while I am in college.
As a senior at Benedict College obtaining my B.S. in Biology, I have gained a better understanding of the study of biology as well as other science-related subjects and math. I have been a part of the Peer-Tutoring program at Benedict since I was a freshman and have tutored in the subject of Biology.

More About This Tutor...

I just recently completed my first semester of teaching University 101 at the University of South Carolina. This course allowed me to find out how much I enjoy teaching. I like to be able to make a personal connection with the students and learn about their learning styles and much more. I feel like each person who is in a teaching capacity has the ability to motivate and help each child in the classroom. It is just up to each one of us to decide how much time and effort we are willing to put into each student. As for me, I am always willing to help each student reach their full potential, even if that means a little extra work from me.
I graduated with an M.Ed. in Higher Education and Student Affairs from the University of South Carolina in May of 2010. Directly after graduating, I began a career as an Academic Advisor in the Moore School of Business Undergraduate Division at the ... read more
