From both my tutoring and teaching experience, I have concluded that each individual learns differently; therefore, I believe it is essential for teachers to discover each student’s learning style and teach them accordingly. I also strongly believe that learning should be a rewarding, pleasant, and even fun experience. Furthermore, I know that each and every student is able to learn; however, often times it is necessary to instill a desire to learn in them. This can be done by illustrating a passion for learning. Once a student realizes the rewards of acquiring knowledge, helping them learn becomes a quite simple task as they have become lifelong lovers of learning.
Coming from a family of educators, I knew from an early age that I would become a teacher myself; therefore, all the steps taken to prepare for my professional life have been to enable me to be the best teacher I ca ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach to assisting students in their educational development may be described as a constructivist. I believe that teaching should incorporate cooperative learning, hands-on experiences, teacher-to-student interaction, and a working knowledge of all content areas and their uses in our modern world. I am a firm believer that all children can learn and I understand that it is important for teachers to respond with the appropriate curricula, assessments and instructions. I believe it is important to build upon the strengths of each student regardless of their disability or diversity and to improve their academic skills.
I have taught 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students. This has allowed me an opportunity to assist students with disabilities achieve communication and self-help skills, as well as assist ESOL students learn to speak and understand English. I currently work with special ... read more

I began teaching with students who required a significant amount of intervention to succeed on their grade level. While I was in Atlanta I also worked with the after school tutoring program for at-risk students. After my year in Atlanta I returned home and began teaching Special Education in Mobile County, where I also worked with the county in an after school program tutoring students who required more intervention. I left Mobile county to move to Baldwin county where I taught for three years. As part of the Baldwin county system I went through the training to become an ARI and AMSTI teacher. Once I became an ARI and AMSTI trained teacher I then used the principles and techniques of the two initiatives in my own classroom.
It is my belief that all students are capable of obtaining the academic goals when they are given the necessary tools need to be successful. I believe that al ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I come into contact with a variety of different students with different areas of interest as a public speaking teacher. My teaching philosophy is to recognize that every student needs, wants, and gets something different from their studies, and it is my job to help them do just that. Rather than conduct a “one size fits all” class, I work with my students individually to guide them in their research and help them get the most out of their speeches. I believe it is important for them to choose topics that interest them as a way to learn about an area they already like and become excited about delivering speeches, something that most students fear.
I have always valued the importance of a quality education and have encouraged friends with no college ambition to start working on their degrees. I am not, however, an elitist. I think every endeavor is a learning experience, but there ar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Worship Leadership, and am currently working on a Master's in Elementary Education. I am also currently teaching myself Spanish and Mandarin. I have exceptional skills in grammar and writing, and I received a perfect score on both the Reading and English sections of the ACT in high school. My degree was writing-intensive, so I have extensive experience with writing research papers. In the past four years, I have taught piano, percussion, guitar, voice, and worked with K-3rd grade students after school at a local elementary school. I have also helped many students learn how to study properly (what to focus on, how long to study, where and when to study, etc).
I am very passionate about teaching children. I am patient but firm, and focus on encouraging and building confidence. I am excellent at breaking down difficult concepts in a way t ... read more

More than my love for teaching, I love imparting the knowledge that I have acquired over the years to students in simple palpable way. I believe I have the ability to break up complicated problems or concepts into smaller parts and explain them building up to help the student to have a complete overview. My teaching skill involves explaining every single step of the subject, as I feel there should be no room to assume that the student already knows it. I start from step 1. No subject is hard, a good insight with good guidance with creative teaching can always make learning a fun and fruitful experience.
The only tutoring I have done in USA is helping my wife with her Undergraduate Math courses such as Statistics, Calculus, Geometry and other related courses. However, I have experience teaching in my home country for over a year as an Associate Professor in Engineering College teac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I started tutoring math when I attended Faulkner State College. I then attended the University of South Alabama where I tutored math and physics. I have tutored all levels of math and also tutored not only physics, but lab activites as well.
I have always been a quick learner when it comes to mathematics. It is something that comes almost natural to me. With that said, I understand that this is not the case for everyone. I feel that a good majority of people hate math because they don't understand math, and because they don't understand math right away, they don't try to understand it. I had a wise professor once tell me, "Math isn't difficult; there is no such thing as difficult math. It just seems difficult because you haven't learned it yet". I think math can be easy for anyone, they just have to learn it first.

I have two years of experience teaching the English language to Taiwanese children and youth. I have also worked with at-risk children and youth in summer and after-school programs. In addition, I have one year of experience in curriculum development. In addition, I have earned a BA in political science (from a liberal arts college) and am currently working on a BS in accounting. I have an excellent command of the English language, social studies, and synthesis writing, and have successfully tutored my own child in phonics and reading.
Having taught children and youth from age 5 through 16, I can truly say that I enjoy the experience. The truest reward is the facial expresssion when a revelation of learning has occured, or a skill mastered. I believe that learning can be made more interesting by showing its relevance in everyday living. To meet the teaching objectives, I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked both as a substitute teacher and as a certified teacher for around 15 years. I have taught a variety of different courses. I was certified to teach all sciences grades 7-12. However my certification has expired. I have taught both in the private and public sectors of education. I graduated a member of Kappa Delta Pi, as an international honor society. I graduated with a 3.9 G.P.A. I have also worked as a tutor many times within my career. I also worked with troubled teens as a therapeutic foster parent. I have taught all sciences, math, English, literature, reading, history, geography, geology, and religion.
I believe that a teacher should be willing to do whatever is necessary for the student to understand the concept(s) being discussed. Students all learn different things in different ways. I have taught a wide range of students both in ages and in ethic backgroun ... read more
