Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Cobb, GA

Each child is different. Each child has his/her own way of learning. I have learned that no two children learns alike and requires specific instruction. Many teachers stand in the front of the classroom and lecture, passes tons of paperwork out and call it teaching. Yes, in his/her own way she has taught, but has learning taken place. In most cases, NO. I will provide your child with the opportunity to thrive in whatever environment works for him/her. If it is pencil and paper, conversing, or with audio-visual(powerpoint,etc)..we will determine the medium that your child thrives in and allow he/she to blossom! My goal is to meet your child where he/she is and challenge he/she to maximize their potentials.

I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education based on my own families background and my own. Because I was overlooked it gave me the desire to help those that seemed mostlikely to not succeed. I earned a bachelor degree in Early Childhood Education while working full time and being a full time mom. I went on to earn my Masters in Education and Psychology/Counseling. For the past 15 years I have taught in Public schools as well as Private schools.In addition, I have taught at a local Technical College. For the past year I have tutored students in grades 6-9. I enjoy teaching, it is part of what I was born to do. I enjoy teaching children and adults.

I believe that it takes more than

My teaching style is flexible. Students learn in different ways and at different paces. It is my job to discover how the students learn and what they respond best to. For some subjects, repetition is very important and for others a clearer understanding of the concepts involved is more valuable. I like to start with small skills and build on them. I have taught two years of middle school and home schooled my daughter. I have worked as a substitute teacher on and off for several years. My emphasis in college was English and Math so I feel very comfortable teaching either of these subjects as well as reading.

I strongly believe that the student’s success lies in the hands of the teacher. Every child or student deserves special attention depending on his/her intellectual ability. So, it is imperative that every teaching curriculum fits the special need of the student. Teaching should not be based on memorization, but rather on understanding and instilling a sense of curiosity to learn. I currently work as a financial analyst utilizing many quantitative skills such as statistics, forecasting and data analysis. I am working towards a CMA (Certified Management Accountant) certification, which eventually will help me progress into a managerial position.

I have been driven to excel in college and in my career in logistics. I've graduated from two of the top universities in the US, and retired from the USAF as a Major. I'm also a graduate of Air War College. I've traveled the world as an instructor navigator and defense contractor, learning about many cultures and religions. In addition to Spanish, I also speak Turkish. I also owned my own logistics services business, winning a contract with the USAF. My technique in teaching navigation was to expose the student to the underlying physics of dead reaconing and celestial object movement. Then we would put the theory into practice in the air. I strove to always give positive feedback and encouragement.

I have a plethoria of experience working with children in a variety of ages. After graduating from Michigan State University I have subbed for all ages, tutored students, worked at a Sylvan Learning Center and taught a Art Goes To School program.

We are moving to the Warner Robins area at the end of July. My current employer at the YMCA is abled to be reached for a reference. This current position is not tutoring; however, it does show my capability of working with various ages. I consider myself more of an ecletic teacher who uses several different teaching strategies. My goal is for the student to understand their lesson and each student learns differently. A good teacher is aware of their students' learning abilities and

I enjoy tutoring. I obtain gratification through helping students to grasp concepts that seem vague or out of reach. I always keep a professional relationship with people. I like to make people feel welcome to ask questions. It is important to respond to students in a manner that encourages them to ask questions. I also ask questions to obtain feedback on how to approach problems, build problem solving skills, and resolve issues that limit their understanding of subject matter. My ultimate goal is to build a students character so that s/he will have the confidence to strive in reaching for higher education. While I was in high school, I tutored all subjects in math except Calculus. In college, I tutored students in Calculus, general engineering courses, and I was an assigned mentor to three students.

I love coaching and mentoring children and adults. I believe that no matter how young or old you are, education is worth learning. What I love most is seeing the new development and excitement students get once they not only have learned something new, but actually comprehend and apply it to their professional or personal life for the better, or greater achievement towards the academic journey or pathway. I utilize various strategies because of the various learning styles. When interacting with students, I incorporate audio, visual, and interaction. This gives every student the ability to understand the subject matter at hand, strengthen social/networking skills, team building skills and communication skills, just to name a few. I am a dynamic individual with the ability to maximize & enhance an individual's desire to learn, utilizing motivational learning and leadership. I obtained m

As an educator, I recognize the importance of teaching and the impact that it has on the lives of students. My goal as an educator is to enhance student learning and to maximize individual learning potential as much as possible. This can only occur if the learning experience is welcomed and groomed to meet the individual needs of the child. To obtain knowledge is to obtain the recipe for success in life and as an educator; I am one of many individuals who should help facilitate that process. My first tutoring experience occurred during my attendance at South Georgia College (SGC). At SGC I was a tutor for Student Support Services and was responsible for providing academic tutoring to my peers in various academic subjects. After graduating from SGC, I continued to provide tutoring services with the Sylvan Learning Center and the America Reads program at the University of Georgia. Under th
