Sociology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Dalton City, IL

I believe that all people fall short of their maximum potential. Finding the right motivation for people is a gift that I have. This is, however, no guarantee of success when dealing with the individual mind, but it does improve the circumstances. I can motivate, but I cannot do the work for a student, thus personal responsibility is a must for success. I write in a very concise and efficient manner. There is very little fluff in my compositions. I will promote logical thought, proper syntax, proper grammar, and essay layouts (according to the assigned format) for my students. I enjoy seeing people succeed and I am very proud of my students' achievements. I am 36 years of age with three sons of my own. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Eastern Illinois University in General Studies with a Minor in Sociology. I have an Associates in Applied Science degree from Lake Land College in

As a mother of three school aged children, I understand how important a little extra help and encouragement can be to academic success. I also know from my experience with many students that each child has his/her own learning style. It is my interest to find the most effective approach for each individual student and help them reach their full potential. I have found much satisfaction in educating and encouraging my own children and my students. My goal is to see success in every child. I am a graduate of North Carolina State University with a BA in Sociology. My interest in people and passion for helping others has lead me to many great opportunities. I have worked with the North Carolina Department of Human Resources, and aided/taught/mentored in the developmentally disabled and at-risk populations. I have had the chance to utilize my education and abilities in the Deland-Weldo

Hello and thanks for stopping by today. My name is Michael and I am here to help you succeed. I am currently in law school working my way through. Before moving to Illinois, I lived on the east coast in upstate New York, where I completed a bachelors' degree in Political Science and Masters degree in International Studies. Just last year, I completed a second Masters degree in Management. While I am completing law school, I am also a licensed substitute teacher in all grade levels for several school districts throughout Eastern Illinois. Education is truly a passion of mine. Let me help you achieve your goals. I am a firm believer in the concept of engagement learning. While teaching, I maintain a very lively and interactive classroom. To me, teaching and learning is not about merely lecturing names and dates to students. Teaching and learning is a linear process where the stude

I believe making the information relevant to the student is important. I like to use humor and real-life examples to keep students engaged. I believe that it is important to know how the child learns to be able to present the material to them in the best manner for them which is what I would base my style on. I obtained Secondary Teacher Certification in Social Sciences. I taught high school and middle school Spanish for two and half years at public schools, and completed my student teaching at an alternative school for juvenile criminals. I was an at home teacher for my school district when children were out for extended periods due to illness. I have completed additional continuing education in working with gifted and special needs children. I enjoy sharing my passion for learning with others and love to see the “light” come on when a student finally understands a concept.

I am open to different tutoring/teaching styles to accommodate different peoples individual needs and differences in learning style.I am very passionate about teaching/tutoring and enjoy helping others and seeing them understand a concept that before may have been trivial to them. I do whatever I possibly can in order to accommodate each persons needs. I give 110% when teaching/tutoring because I have to give all I can when helping others because I know that most of the time this is the difference in grades for that individual. I am currently an Avid Tutor for Springfield 186 School District in Springfield, Il.I am also Teacher Assistant and Special Education Attendant certified. I have also tutored at Lincoln Land Community College in the past. I also have done private tutoring for friends of our family and people that they know and have referred me.

I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology. I have always had a passion for learning and helping others. I was a Honors English student and I have a strong interest in reading and writing. I have worked as a seasonal scorer of standardized assesments for a year. I was an America Reads America Counts tutor for 1 1/2 years. I tutored youth K-12 in both reading and math. I also provided homework assistance with other subjects. During the last 2 1/2 years, I tutored youth residents and program participants in a variety of subjects. I believe that patience and understanding are very important parts of teaching. I believe that it is important to understand an individual's distinct learning style. I work hard to ensure that students are actively engaged in the learning process. It is my philosophy that learning is fun. I strive to make the learning expe

As a seminary student, I gained a deeper respect for the education process and a greater passion for teaching students. During my time at what is now Lincoln Christian University, I gained a respect for the written word as well as a significant knowledge and usage of the English language. For the MA degree that I completed, I gained a working knowledge of grammar and research skills due to writing research papers and a final extensive thesis. Not only have I gained experience through study, but I have taught and, at times, tutored junior and senior high students in a classroom setting. The process of learning has always facinated me. I believe that all individuals regardless of age are able to learn something new everyday. I also understand that each individual learns in a different manner from the next. My teaching style is structured so that I try to help each student learn in th
