More About This Tutor...

Education, teaching in particular, gives individuals the opportunity to give back what they have received. It is communication on a broader level than just simply putting forth information to whomever chooses to accept it. I started my career in education before I set foot on a college campus, through a peer-tutoring program in my high school. This experience allowed me to work with severely disabled peers learning functional skills for independence. Since then I have worked as an aide in emotional/behavior and multiple-disability middle school classrooms, as well as LD-resource, ED self contained and SC occupational diploma program. In addition I have earned a degree of distinction with the National Forensic League, been name a scholar-athlete in South Carolina and a host of other accolades in scholarship. I have experienced both urban and suburban school settings and have had inc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Engaging with the student and getting them interested in the subject is of the utmost importance. If they do not care, they will not do well. Which is why making the student attracted to the subject is my first step. Once engaged, we can have fun with it. I also believe the most successful student is a hands-on student. That is why I will work with the student step-by-step until they can do it on their own.
In high school I was a student-tutor. I spent three summers in Vacation Bible School at Millbrook Baptist Church in Aiken, South Carolina, where I got plenty of experience dealing with children. I am currently enrolled at the University of South Carolina Aiken, where I am majoring in Secondary Education with a focus in Social Studies. I am a hopeful High School teacher.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my years of teaching I have taught students with a broad range of abilities and needs. At the middle school level I have provided instruction in math, English, science and social studies. In high school my focus is more individualized in either English or math. I have expertise in reading and writing instruction as evidenced by my students' test scores. In both settings I have had great success with students who struggle with academics using my own unique strategies. During the National Board Certification process I was required to provide written, audio, and video documentation of my teaching proficiency. I have tutored students in English/reading from the elementary level to the college level.
My teaching style is the same as my parenting style. Establishing high expectations and an environment where students are provided the academic tools they need, as well as car ... read more

I do not have current experience teaching or tutoring for pay. I did some tutoring of high school students and fellow classmates while I was in college. Since then, I have been the "go-to" person in my family for help with math and science. I tutored one of my sisters in her classes at St Charles Community College. She graduated with an Associates degree in AutoCAD last year. I helped her with all her cad, math, physics, and engineering classes. From 2002 thru 2008, I tutored one of my nieces through her junior high and high school math and science classes. I feel there is a need for better understanding of math by students and feel I have a great deal to offer in this area. My 20 years plus experience in manufacturing and engineering that gives me insight into the mathematics that students will need in their careers.
I believe everyone can do mathematics. It just has to be explain ... read more

I love working with all age groups. I have three younger siblings that I have helped tutor through all levels of their educations. I have also tutored on a college level while in attendance at Presbyterian College. I am very patient, easy-going, and considerate.

I teach by asking questions, exploring options with learners, and focusing on learner responsibility, independence, and initiative. I like to push my students to their fullest potential and encourage them to take unique approaches to their studies.

More About This Tutor...

I set high expectations for my students, and I set high expectations for myself. My strongest assets are my patience and ability to convey difficult subject matter to variant learning styles. I evaluate each student as a unique learner and measure success through achievement of desired outcomes. My students are successful because I prepare efficiently, deliver instruction professionally, and I believe in their ability to achieve their personal goals. I use positive reinforcement to propel the learning process. When students reach their goals, I have succeeded.
With a BA in English Literature from the University of South Carolina and an MA in English Education from the University of South Florida, I have 10 years experience teaching English Language/Writing Skills to secondary students, college students, executives, company representatives, and military contractors.

I believe all students can learn. I am a very patient and easy going teacher. I use humor to break the tention when the stress gets to high for students. I do however set very high expectations for my students. But they always seem to achieve the goals that have been set. I know they can work to or serpass their potential. Teaching students is the key to change in the world because we can only change through being educated. So I work hard for my students and expect the same in return.
Graduating from Upstate was a wonderful experience. I was given the oppurtunity to study reading at great leangth. I worked with students that had many reading different reading diffuculties.

Many college freshmen struggle with Biology 101. While some universities have services to students, not all institutions are fortunate enough to give their students free access to tutoring. Therefore, I believe that it is important to set a solid foundation for the sciences in both middle and high school levels. Having the opportunity to tutor would allow me not only to share my knowledge and passion for biology, but also allow me to engage with younger peers. Tutoring is a two-way learning process not only for the student, but for the teacher as well. I consider myself a patient, understanding, and considerate person, and I will strive to meet the needs of any child's particular learning pace or style.
In May of 2010, I received my BS in Biological Sciences from the University of South Carolina. In addition, I have a cognate in Landform Geography. I hold a Academic Grade Poin ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a desire to teach and be involved in education. After earning a degree in Broadcasting, I decided to change fields and get into teaching. I earned a CELTA (Certificate in English Teaching to Adults) from Cambridge University in 1999. Upon receiving that certificate I immediately began teaching English to adults. I first worked in an on-site language school environment and then later in a more freelance, corporate environment. After teaching adults for a few years I then began tutoring students in English conversation, grammar, written comprehension and expression and pronunciation.
I love working with children and young adults. My challenge as a tutor is to take something that is difficult and make it fun and understandable. Too often students look at teachers or adults as enemies, and I try to take a very laid-back, conversational approach when tutoring. ... read more
