Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Chestnut Mountain, GA

I currently work as a substitute teacher at Riverside Military Academy. I've worked with elementary children and teenagers extensively. My most recent position serves twenty and thirty somethings in their personal and spiritual formation. I have published my writing, acted on stage, spoken before thousands and mentored dozens. My personal intent is to explore life, discover new things, tackle hard challenges and inspire others to do the same. I believe in the value of the individual and don't believe one-size-fits-all. Adaptive. I have a background in experiential education and believe that the method is not as important as the end result of having assimilated, understood, and taught back the information. I believe in creative learning techniques and hope to inspire a love of learning alongside the discipline of learning itself.

Being an international student from Trinidad and Tobago and having been presented the opportunity to be a French teaching assistant at the university level push me to continuously reflect on my teaching methods in an effort to effectively reach my students. Moreover, as Language is ever-evolving, I must look to change my teaching methods in order to keep up with the ‘times’. As such, I aim to present coursework that is exciting and educational at the same time and this, in return, helps prevent passive learning/boring teaching of the French language.

She left her homeland in 2007 to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree at Furman University, Greenville, South Carolina, where she double majored in Music and French.

"Even if I knew that tomorrow this would all come to an end, I would still plant my apple seed" - Martin Luther I am proud to say that I have spent the last 9 years in public education as a teacher in a self-contained Speech & Language classroom. Throughout my 9 years, I have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful students, who I am happy to say have shown lots of success in my Speech & Language classroom. I enter the classroom with the belief that all children can be successful. Prior to entering public education, I worked as a Pre-K teaching assistant, homecare provider, one-to-one student aide, and camp counselor. I became interested in education as an undergraduate student at Hunter College where my coursework and surroundings allowed me to explore multicultural and diverse learning. Following my undergraduate studies, I was proudly accepted into the New York City Teachin

I am a highly dedicated individual with an Architectural and Engineering Background. I have an Associate of Science in Engineering and a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering. I have high levels of training in Math and Science. I have always worked with the public including both adults and children. I have a 10-year-old son with ADD. I have been tutoring him from kindergarden to present. He is now in fifth grade and maintains A's and B's. Even though he attends public school, He and I have to work many hours daily to keep him at his full potential. In the past, I have tutored students in all levels of math including high school and college math. I believe that all children require a different method of teaching. My goal is to find the key to help them become motivated in learning. Sometimes children predetermine that they are not good at an individual subject. If you can find

I use positive motivation with my students, explaining how subject matter being covered should relate to them and their future successes. I try to link the subjects with current events and how lack of knowledge on specific subjects can cost them either financially or impact their health and well being. For example, when I encounter a senior who is not participating in class, I give them an employment application to fill out, explaining if they have difficulty completing it, they better join the class. I graduated LSU and was commissioned as an officer in the US Air Force. I completed Transportation Officer courses on vehicle fleet management, commercial transportation, and staff logistics officer training related to airlift terminal management and operations. I also attended and graduated from the Traffic Accident Investigation and Traffic Control course. I have been a business consultan

I enjoy working with all learning styles, and have had training in working with many types of exceptional learners, including those with various learning disabilities, ADD and ADHD, ASD, blindness, and giftedness. I am certified to teach both music (PreK-12th grade) and mathematics (6th grade-12th grade). I utilized my positions teaching music to also assist students that were having difficulty in Mathematics and Language Arts during my free periods. Throughout school, I have tutored the other students in my classes after-school when they were having difficulties. I enjoy catering to various learning styles, and do so with passion and fun! If you have a student that is frustrated or bored with the classroom environment, and you feel that they have not received enough individual attention, I will help them succeed. I believe in education of the student as a whole, and will use your studen

My teaching style goes from both pedagogy to description. Once I understand the knowledge of the student, I speak to them on the level of what they know, depending on the age. Since I've worked with students from age 2 to adulthood, I try to relate to students based on their age as well. If the student is not very knowledgeable of music, I tend to explain things to make it plain. Often, professionals tend to speak "over" the student's head with technical words, so they have no clue as to how to produce a note. I use descriptions to make the idea more useful to the student. I am a caring person and I support my students more than the average teacher. If invited, I attend concerts and other performing functions outside of lessons. I've been teaching and performing music professionally for over 10 years. Since receiving my degree, I've taught chorus, currently teach private lessons, and pr

As part of a voluntary program to help educate my local community in Grand Cayman, I taught High School level Accounting and Principles of Business for 4 years between 2006 and 2010. This involved both the teaching of the subjects from first principles, and exam preparation for students. My Work as an accountant contributed to this as well as the experience I gained working for companies large and small on 2 continents. My style of teaching, whether it is children in church classes, those studying for high school, or executives in training, relies very much on meticulous preparation and personalization to those learning. I'm extremely patient, can very quickly put people at ease. This makes for more effective learning. My style of teaching, rather than overtly teaching students new things, builds on what they already know, and applying it to different situations. Learning is

In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test prep teacher, I have a close knowledge of students' approach to graduate school, and the process of improving their chances of acceptance to schools of choice. I am academically qualified and more especially interested in teaching humanities courses. The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from without.

I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in English, with a Concentration in Creative Writing. As a student of Kentucky State University, I have explored my passion through words (i.e. Poetry).The Education that I've received from my University, allowed me to not only be successful in my field, but I have written over 100 Poems; which I'm in the process of getting them copyright, as well as published. I've tutored during my College years and most of my students have Graduated from College as well..that means more to me, than anything that I've experience because I've had a chance to motivate young people. I love working with children because they have such a youthfulness that is full of life and ready to take on new challenges.
