EXPERT TUTOR-MultiSubject; Home/ONLINE; +WRITING instructor

As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I'm patient and understanding the complexities of accounting and the ensuing panic that it sometimes causes. In my experience the fundamental reason people need tutoring boils down to a failure to truly understand the concept of the debit and credit. I always begin by reviewing these concepts and ensuring that the student/intern fully understands the logic behind the debit and credit. Once understood, the comfort level with accounting fundamentals drastically improves and we can move on from there. I thoroughly enjoy seeing the improvement in my students/interns and the thanks that I receive at the end of their time with me. I love to hear it and will never tire of hearing it because it is the reason I encourage the experience.
As a student, I was promoted from hostess to assistant controller of a restaurant within the period of one year and prior to graduation from the commun ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Having graduated with a degree in mathematics and extensive work in engineering, I was positioned me for pursuits along technical and analytical exercises while bringing in insight beyond the rigidity of science alone. I have applied these skills in areas of I.T (electronic data interchange long before it was common place), research (developed database of metellurgy alloys for NASA), as well as public health (perform statistical analyses of unintentional injury (for CDC effort) and trauma for the state of TN). I have privately tutored many who have come to me, admitedly because of their own "struggle" with math. Testimonials of a few are available.
I emphasize the learning of concepts and understanding to the extent that the student is able to teach them back to me as a validation to themselves that they have grasped the idea of the moment. Learning is progressive. Each student ... read more

After graduating in 1996, I opened my own tutoring service in Dickson, TN. I tutored individuals from public schools and home school in Math, Reading, and several other subjects needed until 2001. At this time I left Dickson and moved to Clarksville, TN and tutored with A+ Math tutoring intil 2006.
Seeing the look and smile on the face of a student that finally grasps a concept, or realizes they have just read on their own for the first time, OH What a Feeling!!! I take each child as their own individual knowing they have their own needs in learning a subject. I teach in several different ways as to ensure the child grasps what they need. I see children today as my future for tomorrow, so helping them and making a difference in their lives will make a difference in mine. I have not forgotten any individual I have helped to this day.

A Little Bit About Me...

Being a Chemistry major, I have exceptional knowledge in Science and Math. I have worked with children from Elementary to High School. I have tutored/taught highly intelligent children and some resource students. Working as a substitute teacher, I developed many techniques and strategies to get children to understand. While working at a Youth Development Center, I engaged with teenage girls whom were not interested in learning, but I was able to gain their attention and get them involved in the learning process. Many of these students, I helped prepare for the GED test, a test that I scored highly on myself.
All children grasp concepts in different ways and from different methods. I have gained experience on how to pin point a child's learning style and have learned how to become more effective by teaching at a child's pace and level of understanding. So, my teaching style is depe ... read more

My lesson plan will accommodate the intellectual need of the student or a group of students. I believe in two types of methods for students such as constructivist and pragmatist. A constructivist teacher will build on what the students already know. I have to remember adults have knowledge about topics but, rejogging their memory will help them to bring back certain thoughts and ideas. As a constructivist instructor I can add to what the student or student does not know. I also believe in the pragmatist method. The pragmatist educator will implement new ideas of learning into their lesson plan and curriculum in order to prepare students to meet today's challenges in the work force.
I enjoy working with school age students in elementary and middle school however, I am developing a passion for preparing adults to enter the work force. I want adults to be prepared on three levels inte ... read more
