A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent honors graduate of the Virginia Military Institute with a degree in civil and environmental engineering. This course of academic study exposed me to a broad range of upper-level mathematics, physics, and chemistry. During my college career I volunteered with a mentoring program known as Big Brother/ Big Sister to tutor elementary school students, and I also privately tutored fellow college students in Calculus I.
The joy that teaching and interacting with children brings is indescribable; there are few things that can match the satisfaction one feels when a pupil finally "gets it!" I believe that true education comes through understanding. Oftentimes students are taught tricks or rules to help them through a subject area, but I strive to bring my students to a point of clarity; I want them to be completely comfortable with the subject content because they understa ... read more

I have been a teacher for 17 years; teaching at the elementary level, high school English, plus a variety of grades and subjects while tutoring online with eSylvan. I have a MA degree with emphasis in language arts/curriculum and instruction. Currently I teach kindergarten. I have been with Lynchburg City Schools for 7 years.

I like to incorporate technology into my lessons. I am flexible and able to adjust/alter my lessons to meet the needs of the children. I like to provide on-going assessment to parents and students. This also helps me so that I can best meet the needs of my students. I have successful classroom management tools that allow a warm, caring, educational environment.

A Little Bit About Me...

Education has always been extremely important to me. To me there is no greater feeling than finally grasping a difficult concept and I love helping someone else achieve that feeling. Consistently during grade school, high school, and college, other students came to me for help with their schoolwork and I enjoyed providing them with a new perspective, or recapping the teacher’s lecture. I have worked as a tutor for migrant aid workers’ children, helping them to learn English, as well as with Biology, Math and Grammar. I have a BA in Biology with extensive credit hours in Chemistry. I have also worked as a Chemist for two and a half years. I have always enjoyed English and Grammar and have consistently excelled in both.
I have a great deal of experience training fellow employees and have devised the system of show them once, let them do it once while talking them through it, an ... read more

During my years at Liberty University, I was provided with an outstanding education that challenged me to grasp the complexities of the universe. I currently hold a BS in Biochemistry and Molecular biology, and I have minored in Psychology and Chemistry. The combination of subjects that I have studied provides me with an understanding of math and the sciences and with the knowledge of how to communicate these subjects to other individuals. Furthermore, membership with the Liberty University debate team has provided me with superior research and communication skills. During the last five years, I have unofficially tutored many of my fellow debaters in the sciences and officially tutored in the areas of high school chemistry and algebra.
I enjoy working with all ages of children because each age group offers unique opportunities. I love tutoring because it allows me to teach in a one ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

If you looked over my resume, you would see that I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in English, a year of experience as an adjunct instructor at a medical career college and two years teaching English as a Second Language at a private institution. However, if you looked over my life, you would see that I have been teaching, tutoring and mentoring my entire life. I have volunteered as a mentor, a tutor, and a teacher in community organizations, in local schools, and at my local church; and I home schooled my own children. During my teaching career, I have worked with people from varied backgrounds, various ages, people from all over the world, and I love it.
What works for one student may not work for the other. One-on-one instruction is a great opportunity to find out which learning-teaching style works best for the individual student. I am patient, friendly and flexible. At the s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I always wanted to be a teacher since I was a little girl. After earning both undergraduate and graduate degree in education, I taught first grade in both public and Christian schools for 5 years. I attended many Professional Development courses and applied new knowledge to my classroom. I also spent close to two years as an Educational Consultant and trainer for Houghton Mifflin Publishing Company in Asia from 2006-2008. I focused on teaching teachers how to teach reading using the 5 Essential Elements of Reading: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency, and Comprehension.
Even though I am not currently teaching as my profession, I am still passionate about education and would love to continue to teach/tutor in small groups or one-on-one. I am child focused and believe it is fundamental to begin with the end in mind by determining where the child is at and where he/s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 25 years of teaching experience in math and science at the secondary and tertiary levels. Concurrent with this, I have spent about ten years tutoring individual students and small groups in a variety of subjects for enrichment and remediation purposes. Typical examples of my tutoring/teaching include preparation for college admission, SAT, and SOL. Official recognition of my expertise is seen in my Virginia Teacher’s License with postgraduate professional certificate, which I have held continuously since 1992. An even higher level of honor comes from being a Finalist for the Sporn award at Virginia Tech in 2001 (in top group of 7, out of 192 professors with 480 nominations) after nomination by students “for excellence in teaching introductory subjects”. To complement my teaching in the classroom, I developed a web site to support instruction of undergraduate courses and I hav ... read more

As a College graduate, I was dedicated to the advancement of myself and others. I have earned a degree in Mass Communications, yet have had the opportunity to Substitute Teach, be a Para-Professional, and also teach at-risk student in a one-on-one setting as a Homebound Instructor for 2 years. These experiences have garnered a sense of urgency within me to reach as many students who are at risk; students who often lack the background to challenge them to complete their education. I have taught these students in various subjects including, History, Math, Science, and English.
I love reaching students who are often overlooked due to their lack of mobility and interest to learn in a classroom setting. I believe that every person on this planet should reach atleast one person in order to excel as a person giving to the advancement of all humanity. This is my goal. I firmly believe that ... read more

I will be graduating in May 2011 with a Masters of Arts in Teaching for Special Education and will then obtain a teaching license for Special Education, K-12. During my Masters program I have taught students in large groups and small groups, performed assessments on students, and planned daily lesson plans and curriculum for students in a variety of subjects. Through my years of higher education I have gained a love for students, children, and education for everyone.
I enjoy teaching students through a variety of methods including traditional, hands on, and student specific. Each student learns differently and as a tutor I seek to tailor the education to the specific skills and needs of the specific student. I believe the goal of teaching is not only to learn specific content and skills, but to inspire students to love learning, and make learning fun and interactive. I hope t ... read more

Through earning my degree in biomedical science, I have accrued a significant amount of experience in both chemistry and biology. My passion has always been for the sciences, but I also minored in International Relations. I am well versed in all of the topics covered in my major and minor as well as several others. As a worker in employ of the school of sciences, I have been asked to tutor students in general and organic chemistry, physics and history and those students which I have tutored saw significant improvements in their test scores, while at the same time enjoying the experience of learning by understanding concepts, rather than memorizing information.
I know that each student has an incredible amount of potential and the trick to unlocking it is not in forcing a set way of understanding ideas, but in approaching each problem from several different fronts and working towa ... read more

I enjoy watching the students learn and "get it" and see the spark of interest that wasn't there before. I understand that some students have difficulty learning in a classroom format and some have personal problems that prevent them from attending public schools. I am willing to help if the student is willing to work and learn and wants to better him or herself. I consider myself patient and want to help them excel.
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology earned in 1970 at Lynchburg College and a Master of Science degree in Environmental Health from East Tennessee University earned in 1979. I have taught sixth and seventh grade math, science and physical education and high school biology (three years total). I am now teaching a general environmental science course at National College in Lynchburg, Virgina. I have worked for the Virginia Department of Air Pollution and t ... read more

I graduated from Liberty University in May 2009 with a BS in Accounting. I am currently and have been a substitute teacher in Bedford County for the 2009-2010 school year. I have substituted for grades 6-12. I have been a football coach at Liberty High School for 3 years and I have been a track & field coach at Liberty High School for 5 years. I have helped different types of students away from school in various subjects. I love math and I am in the process of completing the requirements to gain a teaching license to teach high school math.
I really enjoy being around kids and helping them learn new things. When you teach a kid something and they finally get it, the sight of their face lighting up is priceless. I believe that one should teach using a variety of methods because all kids do not learn the same way and each individual method shows something new each time. I believe tha ... read more
