My comments on tutoring Testing Skills : I have a PhD in Educational Leadership, a master's in English, and have taught at a four-year university and a two-year college. I have also worked with HS students in college preparation skills.

I have experience teaching at a two-year university and a two-year college, in composition, communications, and public speaking. I have also run an educational non-profit that works with students to set college and career goals. I hold a PhD in Educational Leadership. Education is my passion, and I would love to help local students excell!
I believe in working with students, not talking at them. I ask lots of questions and make sure students retain the information and can apply it to the real world.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working and being with children. I believe that all children learn new things in their own way. I am very patient and out-going. My main goal is to motivate and provide the best teaching possible.
I have been pursing my degree in Early Childhood Education at the University of South Carolina. I chosen to take a hiatus from the University so that I can gain more experience working with young children in an educational setting. During my time at the University I gained valuable knowledge and experience with developing lesson plans, assisting teachers and interacting with young children. I want to use my academic experience and love for children and their parents. I am also looking for an environment to increase my knowledge and grow professionally. I also will be receiving my Associates Degree in Arts, May of 2010.

I am an honors graduate with a degree in Special Education and dual certification in Elementary Education. I am currently working toward a masters degree in learning and technology. My teaching experience prior to entering public education included teaching in an international school (Qingdao, China)and teaching in private schools in the United States. I am experienced with helping students to reach their academic and personal goals regardless of any challenges.
Because every child learns in a unique variety of ways, I incorporate a wide range of learning methods into each lesson. Tuning each component of a carefully crafted lesson to the needs of each individual student - is a juggling act that is challenging and rewarding to me. Intuitively supporting learning’s synergistic nature, I enjoy the daily balance of presenting new principles, while skillfully solidifying what ha ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 Beta Club and Student Council for three years. I have tutored seven year olds through adults. I have tutored reading, math, SAT prep, and GRE prep (verbal and quantitative.)
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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I worked at Elohim Center tutoring the kids at an after school homework center in Hartsville, SC. I also worked at Hartsville School of Performing Arts for a short time period. However I provided assistance to the teachers and mentored the children that had potential, but didn't have the extra push in life to motivate them to be more. I worked at Billie Hardee Home for Boys in Darlington, SC as a volunteer I provided teen age boys the assistance in tutoring them with math, reading, and science. I have earned a BA in Criminology and an Associates in Sociology. As a soldier helping people is not a job or a career, it's my choice in life to give and be rewarded through the final product of a completed task.
I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe and know that children can learn, but they have their own ways of learning. I am available not only to help your ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My job is not to give students answers, but to push them to articulate better and give better answers. I teach not by lecturing but by discussion; together we work through problems and questions. By showing students (gently) where their thinking could be improved without giving them the actual answers, I push students to solve problems on their own. My teaching strategies were recognized with teaching awards at UVA and at UNC-Pembroke.
I have earned a PhD in philosophy from the University of Virginia, and taught at the university level at Virginia Tech, UVA, Hampden-Sydney College, West Point, and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke for ten years. During that time, I have taught philosophy, logic (including test prep for the GRE and LSAT), and composition. A chemistry minor in college, I am also proficient in basic science and mathematics. I have tutored in composition ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a current PhD student desiring to teach at a college level, I am motivated to teach others the valuable skills that I possess. I have tutored college students over a month span and conducted training programs for over 250 employees at my past jobs. I have taught four staff members SAP Accounting system operations for the FI, MM, and GL modules. I have been fortunate to enjoy accounting work experience mixed with training opportunities to empower staff and work efficiency.
My teaching style is to provide verbal and written aids to students. I like to provide numerous examples and then allow students to complete a problem on their own. I am very patient and understand that my purpose is to provide assistance to my students and that my student's success is a reflection of me.

All through school I have had a passion for learning. This passion continued into college where I earned two degrees from Columbia College. While earning two Bachelor of Arts degrees in Dance and Religion, I have gained knowledge in critical thinking through applying learning to life, English and grammar through writing papers and reports, and many daily skills acquired through general education courses. Since I began tutoring my senior year of high school I have tutored students in special education, daily skills subjects, elementary math, high school math, and dance as well as teaching English, math, and Bible to students in Kenya, Africa.
I love working with children and have a passion for making the future greater by helping our children be more successful. With a background in dance I have a very creative teaching style with a knack for discovering new ways to learn. I am ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past few months I have been involved with substitute teaching in Richland School District 2. Since being involved I have gotten very much involved in every aspect of teaching. I have been requested at serveral of the district schools because of the way I respond to being in the classroom and working with children of age grades and ages. I am very excited about being in the schools on a daily basis and plan to take things a step further and pursue a full time teaching position in the upcoming school through an accrediated university program.
I feel as though I am highly qualified and competitive for a teaching position because of my abilities to relate to children of all ages. As a volunteer basketball referee at Northside Baptist Church, Upward basketball program since 1998, I work with children between the ages of 7 and 13. I teach them about basketball and sportsmans ... read more

I prefer to use a hands on approach to education. I like to have the kids get engrossed in the subject matter by reading aloud and taking part in discussion sessions. It is my belief that all children have the capacity to succeed in school with the proper tools. The tools that I provide are first and foremost, respecting the students without any bias. Secondly, I have worked with and have the capability of working with children of all ages. This allows me to relate to and effectively educate all students. A competent teacher makes a lasting impact in a child’s life which is why my favorite quote is as follows. "A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." ----Henry Adams-----
I am adamant to maintain a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a B.A. degree in history and an M.A. in secondary education with a concentration in social studi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I strive to work with each student on an individual abilities format. I believe every student with a desire to learn can achieve their education goals. I provide a positive learning environment and am always willing to "go the extra mile" for any student with what I call "the yearning for learning"! It is my considered opinion that children can tell if the teacher is really interested in them or just collecting a salary and will perform better for a truly committed educator. Having committed the rest of my life to the education of the students in this state,this, simply stated is my life's goal: "I cannot provide all the good the world needs but the world needs all the good that I can do." --anonymous
I went back to college to pursue a career in education. While in college I tutored basic math skills to college students and worked with middle school students under a grant program c ... read more

Every student is different. It is up the instructor to identify these differences then tailor their teaching styles to what best helps the student. I believe that patience is the key and using positive reinforcement to create a positive learning atmosphere is the key to success.
I love to help others to get ahead in life. I am a recent college graduate, so I can communicate effectively with younger students. While in school I worked full time and went to school full time, this has taught me how to use time management skills effectively. I have eight years of military leadership experience and I am currently employed by Wells Fargo.

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from the University of South Carolina, I began teaching 7th and 8th grade English and Writing Skills at Kelly Mill Middle School in Blythewood, South Carolina. I have been teaching here for the last five years. Though I have primarily worked with middle school students, I have extensive student teaching experience in AP English and other levels of High School English. I am most talented in working to improve the writing and critical reading skills of students at any age or ability level.
I believe that students are individuals. No two learn the same way. As an educator who is passionate about what she does, I strive to meet the individual needs of my students by tailoring instruction to accommodate both their learning styles and Multiple Intelligence preferences. I work with struggling students as well as gifted and talented students, and am able to differentiate i ... read more
