I am energetic and relevant. I feel personal wins when my students grasp an idea or concept I am trying to get them to understand. I choose to work creatively and effectively. I embrace challenges and love investing my life into the education of others. I have had the unique opportunity throughout college to tutor in various areas. I was very active within a vocal performance group and had the opportunity to assist in public speaking venues frequently. I got the opportunity to assist in a fourth grade classroom, emphasizing the importance of public speaking. I just returned from a semester teaching (English) in Seoul, South Korea. I have a passion for words, for communication and above all, for understanding.

Upon graduating from college, I began teaching as a music teacher for one year and then a middle school band director for three years in Talladega, Alabama. Upon moving to Georgia in 1977, I began teaching music and third grade classes in a primary school in Villa Rica, Georgia. I taught school, worked with the High School band and taught piano lessons for several years. I went back to college and received a Masters degree in Early Childhood Education. I continued to teach both publically and privately as a teacher, a tutor and music teacher. I continued my education to include Educational Leadership and I became and Assistant Principal at the same primary school where I had been teaching. I continued there until 1993. In 1993, due to personal reasons (a divorce and relocation), I stopped working for the school system and began working for a friend as a bookkeeper and payroll employee. I

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

I taught college-level students in the classroom and in an aquatic environment for three years. I also taught aspiring instructors on an ad hoc basis during that period. I have classroom experience with high school children in a special education setting, involving an extreme amount of patience and a willingness to find different ways in which to impart learning on non-traditional students. I believe in short-term goal attainment. I first assess what the student feels they know, then look at what needs to be learned and from that I build a goal-oriented task set that should result in a learned skill set. I am also very good at thinking outside the box in order to get the skill set learned and to effect "true learning" as opposed to parroted learning.

I absolutely adore children and love watching them grow intellectually. I have a passion for teaching and thoroughly take pleasure in working with children of all ages and all levels. I sincerely believe that each child has the capability to learn and each child has his or her own personal learning style. I believe that it is my duty to help any child explore his or her own learning abilities and grow. I believe that learning should be constructive and can be joined with the theories and ideas of ever day life so it can be easily understood. My goal is to make a significant difference in every student’s life. I have over six years of experience in corporate training, consumer sales, and delivering high quality service. I have developed and been the leader of numerous customer initiative programs. After the birth of my son I took time off from the corporate world to dedicate all my time t

For the previous 12 years I have enjoyed a career in education. I have taught a variety of subject matter from Reading, History, Science, Math and even Spanish for grade levels ranging from Prek to 11th. I am currently certified in 2 states for Elementary, Middle School and High School grades for Special Education and Language Arts and History. Over the past 10+ years I have tutored both privately and for agencies such as princeton review. I enjoy helping student evolve by providing a different way of receiving information and simple follow up techniques to assure reception and retention of information. I have worked with children and adults and enjoy the opportunity to encourage a student who feel that all hope is loss. We can all do better when we have the support of someone who recognizes our frustrations yet redirects our attention to smaller areas of strength that we can build on.

I am patient and love for children to "get it". I beleive in repetition as the best method for learning. Whether through song or academic knowledge I beleive when placed in the right environment and with the right resources every child can and will learn, grow and achieve. As a continuing education graduate in Spanish, Dance and Human Resource Development I have received education in teaching methods as well as on hand experience. I taught dance for three years to ages 6-18, taught biblical studies and music to ages 3-13 for 1 year and volunteered through my social organization as a tutor in an underpriviledged community school for 1 year. I have experience in tutoring math, spanish, english and computers.

During my undergraduate studies, I was selected the Departmental Tutor for French language by the Converse College Foreign Language Department. I also taught an entry-level French "drill" class for four years throughout my undergraduate experience. For three years after my graduation from college, I worked with at-risk youth as a wilderness instructor, and also a behavior modification specialist. During my work with at-risk youth, I also tutored such subjects as science, English, algebra, and foreign language. Education is of utmost importance to me, and I believe that all children can learn, but some lack the study skills necessary to succeed in school. While in pursuit of my psychology major at Converse College, I attended various classes and seminars on learning styles. I feel that each child has its own potential, and if we as educators can empower students to feel as though they

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.

As a special education major and history minor, I have learned so much about helping children succeed. I am currently working toward my bachelors degree at Brenau University. This has enabled me to do various field experiences and an internship that deals with children of various ages. I have worked with all subjects from grades K-12. I have a social studies concentration with my major. I enjoy working with all children. I believe that my teaching should be differientiated to fit the learning style of each student I work with. This is because all children learn differently and i have to use which strategy that works best with each particular student. All children can learn and succeed if they were given the opportunity.

I like to teach using all types of aid available. If visual, auditory, and verbal stimulants are present I will do my best to integrate them all. By doing so, each child will be able to use their own learning style to understand the subject matter. I am a very cordial person, however I will not tolerate non-sense from students. I like to make the child feel comfortable while keeping in mind the main objective, to learn. Though I have not had much experience tutoring children, I have served as a Sunday school teacher. I am an intelligent individual who does not mind sharing knowledge with others, particularly children. I obtained a BS from Bennett College in Biology and graduated with a 3.77, which placed me in the number 8 spot in my graduating class. I work well with children because I come from a large family. I have a combined total of 9 nieces and nephews, so understanding kids is so
