I am a sociology doctoral student and have taught undergraduate sociology courses for 4 years. In the past six years, I have worked extensively on federally grant funding research (National Institute on Aging, National Institute of Health, and National Science Foundation) in my sociology doctoral program at Georgia State University. I have also been published in peer reviewed, non-peer reviewed, and specialty journals and blogs in the areas of public health, gerontology, psychology, and sociology. Finally, I have taught brick and mortar, online, and hybrid classes at Georgia State University, Point University, and Athens Technical College. My senior faculty and student evaluations have confirmed that my teaching style is primarily interpersonal, fun, and relatable.

My tutoring style is calm, patient, and encouraging. I have high expectations for my tutoring students. I also strive to discover how a student learns, whether it be seeing it, hearing it, feeling it, or a combination of the three. I am a proponent of hands-on learning, and believe that a tutor’s role is to be a facilitator of a student’s curiosity and achievements. Through implementing a learning plan with attainable goals based on the student’s background and individual learning style, he or she can not only successfully learn the material, but enjoy exploring the depths of the subject matter. I desire that my students have fun with their learning (creativity is key!) by providing them with the tools to achieve success.

I start out with discussing the area of weakness with the student and then try to investigate why this might be the area of weakness. Once this is discovered, I teach the student (through examples) until they understand the topic with which they need help. Then, I observe how they perform without my guidance and see if they have learned to complete problems solo. Most of my experience is informal with tutoring family members/church members/friends in whatever areas they were struggling. Nearly everyone was pleased with what I was able to teach them and they showed improvement. In addition to tutoring, I have also mentored. In particular, at Emory University, I have for three years served as a mentor to incoming freshmen. I have helped them become acclimated to Emory and have also helped them create plans for courses and future plans. Therefore, I am confident in my tutoring and mentoring

I have spent many years working with students of all ages, from my summer jobs running horse camps for children to my time in college as a teaching assistant for introductory classes. I am very optimistic and patient and believe that all children not only can learn, they can learn to love what they do. I strive to not only cover the material thoroughly but to provide small tidbits of interesting information that is related to the task at hand that will show the relevance and the fun of the work. I earned a BS in Computer Science from Berry College with a minor in Animal Science and one class short of a second minor in English.

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 teaching. Some of the areas I tutor are:language arts, reading comprehension and critical thinking, arts, essay writing, social studies, psychology and sociology, SAT writing/verbal strategies and GRE. 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 m

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.
