Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Cloverdale, AL

As an adjunct faculty instructor at the University of North Alabama, I teach students in a public speaking course through a series of class lectures, individual and group activities, live performances, examinations, and out of class assignments. I work on skills such as audience and situational analysis, research, organization, delivery, body language, and listening. My goal is to make my students more at ease with public speaking by teaching them how to be successful at it in a variety of situations. My activities and assignments are meant to challenge their critical thinking skills while improving their performance skills and help me to offer more individualized instruction. While teaching 9th grade world history in Haleyville, I covered the time period from roughly 1500 to present. I taught them about the rise out of the “dark ages” and world exploration, the Renaissance and

I am a certified Secondary Science teacher. I have taught in the public school system for sixteen years. I have taught multiple topics in science using various methods which include the following: direct, hands-on, inquiry, visual, audio and artistry. I promote learning through positive reinforcement as I believe a student is motivated more with praise than criticism. I believe in breaking down topics into their simplest form and then building on the concept until the student has reached a level of mastery. Although certified in Secondary Science, I have experience with all ages through tutoring all ages in all subjects.

I first and foremost believe that every child can learn, and I refuse to entertain any idea that says otherwise. I have found that a constructivist approach works best for most children, and I will always try this approach first. I try to make learning as hands on and relevant to the real world as possible. I graduated from one of the top teaching schools in the nation (according to NCATE), and have a degree in elementary and special education. I specialized in math education, but am also qualified to teach English, science, and social studies. I have worked with children as young as 2 years old and as old as 15 in a formal setting. I have helped children go from hating a subject to being successful and loving it.

With fifteen years of college-level teaching experience, I have taught numerous sections of Freshman Composition, Literature, Business Writing, and Preparatory Writing. I enjoy working with students, giving them insights into the potential rewards that await those who improve their written communication skills. With this in mind, I currently teach courses at two colleges, developing students' abilities to further their eduction--and their life success. I enjoy engaging students with the actuality of what is expected of them in the "real world" of academic writing assignments. Often, students may struggle with grammar and mechanics fundamentals--but fail to see the larger scope of how to put an essay or research project together. I continuously aim to present students with inside track information about what teachers and professors are looking for. Along with this overview, I give st

Using my undergraduate degree in accounting, I have 10 years work experience as an internal auditor and a computer accounting staff accountant for three CPA firms. I have an additional number of years of work experience as a mid-level manager of computer programmers and web developers. I have most recently been tutoring students working toward GED certification at a local adult education center. My teaching, tutoring, style emphasizes flexibility. While there are specific learning units that should be taught and retained by the student, the flexibility of the teacher, or tutor, will assist the learning experience for the student. It is my personal goal to strive for not only specific subject material teaching, but to also teach problem solving and critical thinking to any student in my classes.
