Geography Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bloomington Springs, TN

I tutored before but of course I wasn't paid for it because it was at my old elementary school. I helped children from ages 8-13 which I was only 11 or 12 at the time. I maybe young to tutor children and maybe I should wait until I'm 18 but, I love helping children with their homework and watch them accomplish the subject.

• Student teaching in 2nd grade English and Language Arts. This experience allowed me to connect with indictable students and work with struggling leathers. This one on ken time allowed me to target the specific area the student was struggling with and offer solutions. The students showed improvement over time. • Practicum experience in 6th grade Social Studies. • Experience advising and lecturing in a higher education setting at Tennessee Technological University as a Graduate Assistant. My teaching style is hands on. I prefer to connect with the individual in order to determine how they learn best. I adapt my style in order to reach and connect with the individual on their level and preferred learning style.

After graduating from MTSU, I went to Prague, Czech Republic to train and work as a teacher of English as a foreign language. I secured a position at Bell School International. Here I taught mostly adult students but I also had a few high school classes. I found it was more satisfying teaching the younger students and so I looked for work at the elementary level. At Horackova Elementary, I taught 6th to 9th grade English. I had a great rapport with all the students and enjoyed planning for the array of levels and age groups. However, I was the only teacher there who spoke English and felt alienated from the school. As a result, I made the difficult decision to return to the United States. I seek a student-centered classroom with a balance of authority and trustworthiness in the teacher so that the students respect me while at the same time feeling comfortable to share their ideas freel

I am a graduate from Middle Tennessee State University with a Bachelors degree in English; in which, has enabled me an understanding in subject of English and writing. Upon receiving my degree, I began working for Smith County Middle School as an In School Suspension teacher. I am currently finishing my second year at this position. My responsibilities are to tutor and teach various degrees of students with various subject disciples while in school suspension. This experience has helped me both as a teacher and as a student in that it has helped me understand how to help various students with different learning difficulties. I am also currently enrolled at MTSU to finalizing my certification to teach English at the secondary level. I am very passionate about working and helping students. I have the approach that all students can learn and be strong in any subject, but some students learn

I love teaching and enjoy working with people of all ages. I am available to teach the following subjects: math, science, ancient history, paleontology, archaeology, writing, mythology, reading music, musical instruments/basic beginner classes (guitar, violin, mandolin, banjo, dulcimer), Visual arts (drawing, painting, sculpture, graphic arts, fashion design), gardening, herbs, horseback riding, and more. I am a firm believer in teaching by allowing the student to be more interactive - more hands on. I find that students learn more quickly if they can be physically involved in the process, and that they retain more information this way. I look forward to working with you! I attended Middle Tennessee State University from spring 1993-fall 1997, graduating in Dec. 1997 (B.S. degree). My major is art educ., my minor is secondary educ. My teaching license was in art educ./K-12. I was a membe

I have learned since having children of my own that patience and understanding each child is the key to success. I take the time to listen as well as clearly explain subjects so that no question is left unanswered. As a student I listened and learned while in the classroom and want to pass the knowledge I have along to the next generation. While still in high school and also during my college years, I was always helping others excel in education. Offering study sessions to elementary and junior high students helped me understand what brings out the best in each child. To earn my degree in Business Administration I had to constantly practice math and English. Taking computer classes in college and on the job training gives me first hand knowledge of computers. Making above average grades in science and social studies in school allowed me to help tutor other students while still in sch

One of the things I enjoy most about teaching is seeing the progression of young students as they grow as humans and as learners. Knowing that I actually had something do with their successes at this particular time in their lives makes me feel really good about what I do. My teaching style is one that is usually calm and laid back. I always try to understand BEFORE I'm understood. Always restating their questions, and being willing to talk about things other than school every now and then helps them to become comfortable with me. In order to be effective, I have to be approachable. As a music teacher and band director, organization has always been key. Students can expect me to know right away whether they practiced or studied throughout the week or just the night before the lesson. I teach students to own their successes as well as any other outcomes. They have the ability and I simply

When I attended college, I was chosen by my professor to be a tutor. I was paid by the State for this service. I love accounting and I am at the right place in life to be able to teach/tutor. The prospect of helping someone learn is exciting to me. I must work and part-time would suffice. I know that my experience is limited but that does not reflect on my knowledge or abilities. Thank you for your consideration of my application. I have wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. Circumstances have always prevented me from pursuing my goal. I have taught bible classes and other related classes, so I know a little about the class room setting. I believe that children want to learn and that they want to be successful. I believe that the key is motivation and leading them to understand that a good education will make a difference in their lives. The road to discovery o

It has been said that no one rises to low expectations. I believe that every child CAN learn, but that the process of teaching each child must vary depending on their learning style. Tutoring gives teachers the unique advantage of having students one on one, and allows us to truly discover what methods work best for those students. I have been teaching and tutoring students of all ages for the last ten years. Having graduated with a BA in English, I have learned much about writing and the writing process that I believe could help students at all levels. I have tutored students in English, reading, science, social studies, math, music, and French.

I have loved education and the process of learning since I was a child. Due to family issues, I dropped out at in the 9th grade but due to extensive reading most of my life on many subjects, and being gifted intellectually, thank God, I was enrolled in college at the age of 16. Due to my age, I lacked the discipline needed to succeed then so joined the Army at 18 and finished first in my class in their HS program. I continued going to college in the evenings an weekends until I completed my Master's degree, meanwhile raising 3 children and running a certified home daycare. I am currently a Realtor but am looking to enroll in a Doctoral program in Education. I am a "people" person as they say and get refueled helping others learn and figuring out a way for it to make sense students to overcome their barriers.

Being a student who had reading comprehension in early grades, I understand the shyness and frustration many students have with this difficulty. I respond to them with compassion, and often open up to them with a short story of my own experience. This way the student feels that I understand them and are more willing to learn the material I am trying to teach them. In the beginning I will sit down with the student and their parents to see what is their area of difficulty. If available, with permission, I will contact the student's teacher(s) to see what areas he/she needs to be tutored on to bring them up to their grade level. Once this is established, I will compose a lesson plan and go over it with the child's parents so that they can see what we will be working on and when. This way I am keeping contact with all parties involved and the student is getting the maximum benefit out of the

I adapt a variety of teaching styles in my classroom, depending on each individual learner. I enjoy hand on learning, which can be applicable to my students. I strive to teach grammar in the context of writing. I am a firm in believer in brain based strategy teaching, which utilizes manipulatives, and mnemonic techniques to enhance my students' learning. I strongly believe that English within its core curriculum is vital to creating a foundation for learning.

I enjoy teaching and working with children. I do believe that all children can learn - some differently than others. I try my best to be patient, easygoing, and encouraging. My goal is to open a child's world to new adventures, possibilities, and opportunities. It is exciting to see a child learn and discover new ideas or ways of processing information. A good educator provides discipline and can make a difference in a person's education. I believe I make a difference of the lives of my students. I am a teacher of great experience. Having taught in the private and public schools, I have been given opportunities to work with a variety of achievers - from handicapped to gifted. I have tutored in all academic subjects except higher high school and have an amount of expertise in the reading area. I have a B.S. in education from Union College in Barbourville, KY, and a M.A. as a read
