My teaching style consists of hands on application and converting math into everday language. Each student must be able to complete assigned math problems as well as explain how and why they chose their math operations. My teaching style for Reading consists of phonics, prefixes, suffixes, context clues, grammar strategies and tips. Each student must be able to summarize what they read, identify main idea, identify main character, and explain what they liked about it and what they didn't. Additionally each student will receive short daily assignments to reinforce building skills to improve knowledge and study skills. I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I began

I am a very logical and result oriented person. If you are interested in seeing better results from the scores, tests and believe in making rapid change in your thought process, you may want to try me. I believe learning should be fun and not all work. Not all answers will be shortcuts that would involve lot of memorizing, but very systematic and logical way of approaching a problem for the student to gain interest and at the same time be able to address any problem out of the box. I do understand that not all students are the same and each one of them would require different teaching model to reach eventually to the same high levels. I have given several exams in and out of the country and there are definite tips that can help the student to achieve better results with the same knowledge level. I have scored over 95 percentiles in almost all the exams that I gave, some times wi

To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning. I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College.

In addition to my academic and arts connection, I work with the concept of "learning how to learn". Essentially each child that I tutor I endeavor to assist them in learning what type of learning style that he or she possesses. Every person uses the mind through the senses in a unique way. My goal is provide an opportunity for discovery of how to think by using the "whole mind". Once this is understood, learning then becomes an enjoyable pursuit. As a professional educator, I strive for "excellence without compromise". I believe that learning is about opening each person toward recognizing the potential within, and then taking steps to actualize that potential. My ability seems to be that of communicating and inspiring others to grow. I have combined my academic background with my other passions, music and writing. Thus I bring the outlook and freshness of a lifelong learner to my te

Before coming to Emory, I grew up in a struggling Memphis public school system. Although I was lucky enough to have plenty of resources, support, and guidance to enable me to excel, I knew many students did not have the same fortune. I began informally tutoring the ACT and SAT in high school. In college, I was a member of 'Emory READ' (through Emory's volunteer agency) tutoring at an inner city elementary school and AmeriCorps Jumpstart tutoring at a pre-school. Working with younger underprivileged children presented a welcome challenge, for in addition to mastering specific concepts I enjoyed the emphasis on developing language, literary and social skills. In college, my neuroscience major has often taken me out of my comfort zone and pushed me intellectually; I have received tutoring every step of the way. My college experience in addition to tutoring students in pre-school, element

I have over 11 years of experience providing in home tutoring to individual high school, elementary school, and middle school students as well as adults for test preparation as well as for academic subject preparation. I have also had 6 years of teaching French in public school as well as having developed my own SAT curriculum and program. I am deeply passionate about having students of all learning abilities and levels succeed and am interested in developing ways to help each student showcase his or her own individual talents. I enjoy teaching students of all ages, from elementary through adults, and in all subjects. I find an interactive, Socratic teaching style in which I encourage the student to discover the answers on their own to understand why something works the way it does is a very effective approach for me rather than just lecturing, particularly for younger learners.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible for my students. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and a constructivist approach to learning inside my classroom and also with students I tutor. I believe all children can exceed thier dreams when given the appropriate materials to do so. A few good educators can make dreams a reality for any student. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of Florida State University and a current corps member in Teach For America I am very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. My degrees, in both Political Science and Interdisciplinary Social Science, have given me insight in many areas, specifically, politics, history, hum

While pursuing a Master's degree in Sociology, I served as a tutor for at-risk student athletes who were struggling with their undergraduate courses. While I was technically hired by the athletic department to assist students with their English classes and preparation for the Regent's exam, I found myself tutoring students in a number of subjects. Some of these subjects included college algebra, history, biology, geology, and theatre. In addition to my experience as a tutor, I double majored in English and Speech and Theatre Arts as an undergraduate, and graduated magna cum laude. As a graduate student I maintained a 4.0 grade point average and finished a Master's thesis. I have extensive experience as a researcher and writer, and now work as a full-time education researcher at a univeristy. I have always loved to learn and enjoy sharing this love with others.

I think I can relate to the student because at some point of your life you will need someone to help you understand a topic a little better or lend a hand in teaching the subject in their terms to help you maximize your potential. Sometimes a student just needs that extra push, but done in a way that makes the student understand the material giving them the added confidence that they can be successful in school. My parents and relatives who were educators themselves and taught many of the subjects we took in school helped my brothers and I. I think that they instilled those same qualities that I use when I tutor. As a son, grandson and nephew of those who have been educators on the high school and collegiate level, I understood what study skills were required of me to become an exceptional student. Being the eldest son, my brothers leaned on me to assist them with homework and project

Teaching children and teenagers is a passion for me. It gives me an opportunity to enrich their theoretical and practical knowledge, by transferring my experiences. I am down to earth, patient and a good listener. I tend to anticipate the needs of students, in order to efficiently respond to their immediate issues. I see each session as a new experience, a new challenge and an opportunity for sharing my knowledge. My methodology is to identify student's specific needs in a moment, gather all information related to the subject, and then transmit the most relevant parts to the student. Afterwards I always evaluate effectiveness of my tutoring session. I have been working in the Accounting field for the past 10 years. I have been tutoring Accounting, Math and French language since college, and recently included tutoring in English reading and writing. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and skil
