Live Strong..Every day !

I use a client centered approach to teaching. I focus one's strengths to help them reach their potential. I also use humor and games in teaching to make learning fun.
I have worked with children in various settings since 1974. My experience began working as a summer camp counselor in different residential camps for those with special needs from 1974 - 1980 inclusive. Since then I have worked as a psychiatric technician with children and adolescents hospitalized in in-patient psychiatric units. I worked as a recreation therapist with children and adolescents for over 20 years in residential treatment centers, psychiatric hospitals, mental health day treatment, and alternative schools. I have worked in therapeutic foster care. Currently I am a mental health counselor in a public elementary school.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in meeting students at their level of need, and mastering the skills needed in order to move onto higher level skills. I believe in teaching students how to develop their critical thinking skills, and teaching them the concepts needed to succeed in school and life.
I have my degree in Elementary Education. I have had experience teaching large class sizes, but I have also spent a lot of time in small group reading instruction, and I have worked in small group math. I tutored a kindergarten girl to improve her phonemic awareness. I tutored Language Arts in elementary school after school hours. I worked at a day care for 5 years and helped students with their homework after school.

More About This Tutor...

I love to work with students of all ages. I am a patient teacher and try to tailor my teaching style to the progress of my student. I prefer to promote understanding through the use of work sheets, tutorials, and real world examples, rather then simply relying on memorization. I have a good sense of humor and believe that constructive learning environments are both challenging and light-hearted.
I studied creative writing at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities in Greenville SC. There I studied poetry, play writing, grammar, editing, fiction, and creative nonfiction. I won two national scholastic writing awards for my writing. I also studied at Rice University which is a highly selective university in Houston Texas.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching is an exciting profession for me. I believe all kids including the most intellectually disabled can learn. I believe in setting high but realistic goals for students. Learning starts before children enter school and should be integrated between home and school. I am a firm believer in laying strong foundations in the lower grades, and building upon this as the child develops. Teaching children through systematic and explicit instruction has worked best for the students in my classes. Teaching children basic knowledge and then applying those skills to real-world experiences is my method of choice. I am a dedicated teacher and care about my students’ progress.
Four years ago, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from a local university. I received a BS in Rehabilitation Studies. This degree prepared me to work with our special population. My ultimate desire was to work with childre ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator and a biologist, I am continually striving to excite students’ interests in the unknown. I also work constantly to instill proper study habits in my students, allow them to learn using their eyes, hands, and ears, and approach each topic with the proper amount of guidance, attention, and enthusiasm it deserves. Moreover, I believe that children should be shown how solutions are achieved; students should be given the tools to complete academic tasks, not merely have those tasks done for them. With that being said, I believe my extensive experience from teaching science gives me the ability to provide students with the tools needed to learn and discover their hidden abilities to be as smart as they desire.
After graduating with top honors from high school, I began my college career at the University of North Florida, receiving my BS in biology with Baccalaureate Hon ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring,mentoring and teaching students over the last 5 years in Physiology, Physical Fitness, and Physics. I have taught online, one on one and in a classroom setting. I have taught practical application to theory as well as theory of the relevant subjects. I have been involved in research projects as well as published articles in peer reviewed journals.
I have a direct and simple teaching method. I love teaching physics and it always came naturally to me but I understand that most people do not feel the same way. I try to help students gain a deep understanding of the subject matter so that the principles and concepts are learnt and not simple formula memorizing. I do this so that when the student comes across a problem that does not fit the general shape of previous problems they can use the concepts learned to solve the problem. In short I try to teach problem solv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an college graduate from Bennett College in Greensboro NC with a bachelors degree in elementary education. My goal in life is to make a difference in a child's life. I want to make learning fun and interactive for my class in which I will use hands on activities to help with these goals.
I love working with youth. I have been working with children since the age of 14. I worked in various camps, tutored students younger than me. I am patient, willing to help students achieve their personal goals. I believe that our youth is very important to our future. We should teach them in the way that they will be successful in the future.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am careful to assess where a child is functioning and start the learning process there. After assessment, I work on fundamental skills while at the same time slowly introducing new skills. I use a review process often so that skills gained are not lost. I like to use creative and fun ways to learn skills when possible.
I began my teaching career by completing a two year course of study in Early Childhood and then worked as both a teacher and as a Director at a Parent Cooperative Day School until my own children were in Middle School. At this point I returned to College and graduated with a BS in Psychology and a minor in English. I continued on and received a NC teaching license from UNCG. I found my tutoring skills when my High School aged son was home bound by an illness and I home schooled him for most of his High School Years. He graduated from the University of VA with ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college graduate, I have tried to do the best that I could in my field of study. I have earned my BS in Chemistry, which has enabled me to understand math and science. I have tutored students in General Chemistry, as well as Organic Chemistry.
I have loved Chemistry since high school. I have learned that many people have different ways of learning. In Chemistry, one has to be able to understand the concept and apply the concept. My goal is to provide the basics of Chemistry in the best possible way I can. I believe that one can not learn if they do not try. I strive to help others understand and succeed.

More About This Tutor...

I earned my Ph.D. in polymer chemistry from a prestigious academic institution in London, England, UK. My early education was in Bangladesh from where I earned a master and bachelor degrees with honors in chemistry. In addition to specialization in chemistry, I had passed degree level courses in physics and mathematics. These were requirements for B.S. Honors degree and have enabled me to gain an understanding in basic math and sciences. During my long professional life as an industrial and academic researcher in chemistry, I have learned advanced writing skills through research proposal and report writing. These are parts of principal job responsibilities. And, I found new college graduates were severely lack of these skills. I used these skills during mentoring my employees and during tutoring in my early college life.
I believe every child is uniquely different. Each has his/her ... read more
