Reading Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Decatur, GA

I have taught for 3 full years in a title one elementary school as a kindergarten and first grade teacher. I love children and love watching them grow. In the past 3 years, I have learned how to effectively differentiate for an array of student needs within my classroom. I have been able to effectively support, motivate and serve my students while communicating with their families/parents outside the classroom. I wish to use my classroom experience online to serve students as a tutor. I have planned and executed numerous lesson plans each week. I have assessed and adapted my instruction to best meet the needs of my students. I put the student first and adapt to their specific needs. I prioritize building a relationship with them in order to best teach and assist them in their education.

Ph.D., Religion, Emory University (2013) M.A., Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (2005) B.A., History, Taylor University (2002) My career as a tutor began when I was looking for a way to support myself during my graduate studies in the Boston area. After signing on with a local company, I discovered my passion for finding better ways to help students overcome difficulties and achieve their goals. I enjoyed the challenges of adapting content to the individual needs of each student, of pioneering new ways of communicating ideas, and of working closely with parents to ensure that my efforts were effective. Sensing the need for more structure, I later moved to Kaplan. In more recent years, I have tutored independently. Perhaps the most rewarding part of the work is sharing in the success of my clients. Students of mine have increased their cumulative SAT scores by as ma

Throughout my teaching experience I have encountered students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL. My approach to teaching tutees how to read is tailored to each student's level because I believe that every student is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. While I enjoyed teaching reading at High Point Elementary, I love one-on-one tutoring because of the complete attention I can pay to each student. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships at WyzAnt Tutoring and Thumbtack. My role is to help the tutee express themselves, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base. I adapt my style according to the needs of my students because everyone has unique and different abilities. My tutoring style is serious yet fun, and I bring

The realization that children do well in small group instructional settings, and on an individual tutoring basis, is what I took most from my years in the classroom. My focus is to ascertain the instructional level needed, then instruct for that standpoint. I do not like busywork, but instead look for progress in the individual child. Once the subject is mastered, then it is time to move on to other subjects. The compensation is negotiable depending on the number of children tutored. I also do not set a time frame regarding instruction, as children are individuals, and their learning should be treated as such. I do not like projects, unless it not very complicated, because that would be a singular goal; this fosters learning, and teaches an individual to become broad based regarding the gathering of intelligence. This is how I was taught from an early age, especially from supplementing a
