Speaking Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Daviston, AL

I graduated high school in 2008. I then attended West Ga Tech., for over a year. I majored in technical communications and took numerous computer classes. I love computers and Math. Those are my two favorite subjects but I am pretty well rounded, there's not much I can't do. I'm very self motivated and enjoy helping people better themselves. I work full time right now as a staffing agent, helping people get jobs. I'm only 22 recently out of college so most of the school subjects are still fresh in my memory.

I utilize elements of each of the five teaching styles; however, I prefer the I Do, We Do, You Do style of learning. I firmly believe in providing clear instruction and demonstration of each concept. Then, the student and I work together to master a concept. After that, I provide the student an opportunity to practice and demonstrate his/her mastery of the material in a variety of situations. If the student still needs help, I reteach. I believe in positive reinforcement. Every student can succeed. No one succeeds if he/she feels unimportant or unsuccessful. Attitude is as essential to success as a mastery of content. I have more than 20 years of teaching experience students in grades 7-12. I currently teach 10th grade English and work part-time with Han Academy. I have more than ten years experience teaching Advanced Placement Language and Composition, Advanced Placement Literatur

I have an MBA focusing on empowerment of small business and a BA in Romance Languages. I have been studying/teaching Spanish for over 20 years and French for over 10 years. Professionally, I have been hired as a trilingual in customer service and for consecutive and simultaneous interpretation in a variety of medical and legal proceedings in Spanish for the last 5 years. Q: We've been studying Spanish/French at home for the past year. Would we really benefit that much more from a class environment? A: Absolutely! Language cannot be truly learned in a vacuum. Language is dynamic, and so should be learned and practiced continuously in an interactive environment. Most people say their main goal in learning a foreign language is to be able to speak it. That is why we use the power of the internet, weekly phone conversation practice, and in-class discussions to constantly improve our

I follow three goals with every student that I teach: To encourage original and critical thinking, to introduce new topics in such a way that the students will not only learn the concepts but also begin to apply them in practice, and to engage, empower, and encourage my students so that they emerge more confident in their ability to analyze problematic issues and propose appropriate and creative solutions. Just as I believe there is not one set style of learning, I also do not believe that there is one set style of teaching. I employ a variety of strategies, from straight lecture to various interactive activities that allow the student to see the material in a practical and applicable way. Education is extremely important to me, and I constantly strive to achieve a high level of excellence in all my educational pursuits. I have earned bachelors, master's, and doctoral degrees in the

A teacher must care about people. It is not enough to have the knowledge of the material. You must be very aware of body language and read the group to determine if you need to restate the concept. A good teacher will ask a question and will not answer until a group discussion occurs. A good teacher ensures the group feels comfortable to think outside the box withou fear of embarrassment. Use of several medias in addition to course material is key to keep the attention of the group. However, again, none of this is effective if you do not have a genuine desire to see the knowledge you have of the material transferred to the individuals receiving the message.

During my years at Alabama State University, I helped numerous of my colleagues with all levels of Math. Even though I earned my degree in Accounting, I have always been excellent in all Math classes. I have been tutoring Math since I was in high school and have helped a lot of people understand different Math processes easier. I enjoy tutoring or showing someone how to solve a Math problem but, I know some will understand quickly than others. I have great patience working with children and helping them understand the true concepts to solving a problem. My unique teaching style is to get the children to think about Math in there everyday life and compare it to something they are familiar with. I will not stop until I feel that they have established a better understanding for the subject.

I love to work with children of all ages. I have a seven and three year old myself. My seven year old is a straight A student and my three year old excels in academics as well. I was the youth director at my church and I absolutely loved helping children of all ages to learn and be excited about it. I used to tutor the children at my church every Wednesday night. Each and every child has the ability to learn and I have the ability to teach them. I have always been driven to achieve the impossible! After having my first daughter at the age of 15, I realized how important an education really is. I am happy to say that I will be obtaining my degree from Ole Miss and are continuing to strive for every goal. Meaning, I will be attending Graduate school in the fall. I will have a degree in English and an minor in African American Studies. I am always willing and encouraging others to

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents. For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions.

In general, I simply love working with children. I find great happiness in knowing that I personally helped a child succeed academically. As the oldest of four children, I have always been a leader amongst my siblings and always found myself helping them academically as they grew older. In tutoring, I consider myself to be very patient and understanding that all children have a different learning style. Being able to continue helping children succeed through tutoring would be a great pleasure to me. I have recently earned a Bachelor's Degree in Legal Studies and graduated Summa Cum Laude, which is the highest of academic honors. In order to obtain my degree, I was required to take several courses in a very broad area of study including writing, literature, reading, mathematics, history, and sciences. I have an extensive background in English courses, including knowledge of several resear
