Visual Kinetic Hands On Creative/ Activities I am currently a college student majoring in early childhood education. Previously, I attended culinary school. I graduated my high school in the top 5% of my class with a 4.0 GPA. I love to help others, and I have been tutoring and helping my three younger sisters throughout school for several years.

I also can help proofread papers/ check homework/ etc.

I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I began tutoring elementary, middle school, and high school students. For the past 5 years I have been professionally tutoring elementary school through freshman college students. I partner with local elementary - high schools: E.W. West Elementary, Landmark Academy,Langston High School, and Mills Springs Academy. I also work with Graduation Counselors to prepare their students to take ACT, ASVAB, and SAT tests. My students say that I make learning easy to understand. I believe every student has the potential to suceed. The key to their success is to teach by using the method in which they learn. I tutor Algebra, Geometry, Trigon

Can help with the math. I like to have students take a timed practice test so that they become comfortable taking the test and focus on techniques that will help the student answer questions faster. Face to Face tutoring Provides notes and other supplemental materials Use of flash cards Worksheets Problem solving I have been tutoring independently since 2009 but have always liked helping others learn. I am good with math and numbers. Will go the extra mile to make sure the student/client understands that material. I like to provide as much feedback as possible to the student/client and build their confidence while tutoring them. I have worked with students as young as 5 years old teaching them how to count, numbers, etc to working adults in college and graduate school.

I am a very logical and result oriented person. If you are interested in seeing better results from the scores, tests and believe in making rapid change in your thought process, you may want to try me. I believe learning should be fun and not all work. Not all answers will be shortcuts that would involve lot of memorizing, but very systematic and logical way of approaching a problem for the student to gain interest and at the same time be able to address any problem out of the box. I do understand that not all students are the same and each one of them would require different teaching model to reach eventually to the same high levels. I have given several exams in and out of the country and there are definite tips that can help the student to achieve better results with the same knowledge level. I have scored over 95 percentiles in almost all the exams that I gave, some times wi

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.

My tutoring style is calm, patient, and encouraging. I have high expectations for my tutoring students. I also strive to discover how a student learns, whether it be seeing it, hearing it, feeling it, or a combination of the three. I am a proponent of hands-on learning, and believe that a tutor’s role is to be a facilitator of a student’s curiosity and achievements. Through implementing a learning plan with attainable goals based on the student’s background and individual learning style, he or she can not only successfully learn the material, but enjoy exploring the depths of the subject matter. I desire that my students have fun with their learning (creativity is key!) by providing them with the tools to achieve success.

I have 28 years of teaching experience and 10 years of work in businesses. Combining the two areas enables me to relate concrete examples for my students. Since retiring I have had some experience tutoring a Filipino gal who was anxious to get into the School of Nursing at Kennesaw College as well as with a student trying to pass the ASVAP to enter the military.

To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning. I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College.

With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals and entire classes. I have taught middle-grades Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science, High School English, and reading and writing to adults. I also designed English and French curricula and lessons for my students in my Peace Corps service country of Palau. My many years living and working overseas have afforded me perspective on the world that comes in handy when working with students, as I am able to offer personal anecdotes and cultural knowledge about global matters to supplement their academic investigations. With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone.

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents. For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions.

I am very much a hands-on instructor. Long ago, I heard the Chinese Proverb “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.” These words embody my personal teaching philosophy. I utilize a varied and balanced set of teaching strategies that will meet the needs of all types of learners. First, I determine the student’s preferred learning style (auditory, visual, or kinesthetic) and tailor my lessons accordingly. I then try as much as possible to make our lessons as relatable to the student’s likes and interests. Let’s face it, when the work is difficult and doesn’t relate to anything practical… what’s the point? When I am able to incorporate real-world examples and applications, students respond and things start to click! My 20+ year teaching career began in high school when I ran an after-school tutoring program. At the University of Georgia I tutored for the chemistry
