SAT - Verbal Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Desoto, TX

Classes and tutoring sessions are laid back and interactive. I believe students learn best when they participate. It's a way for them to express and test their knowledge. This makes for a more pleasant learning environment. I have been tutoring since 2005, when I lived in New Haven, CT to obtain my Master's degree from Yale. When I relocated to Texas, I began tutoring for The Princeton Review and also worked full time as an environmental coordinator. Now, I have decided to operate my own SAT test prep company to provide students in southern Dallas County an opportunity close to home, to improve their SAT scores. Besides SAT tutoring, I have been tutoring and assisting students with class assignments since I was in high school.

Brain-based, student-centered I'm Ebony! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor's in Cognitive Studies and Education, and earned a Master's degree with distinction in Curriculum and Instruction. I am a Cognitive Specialist/neuroeducator whose sole objective is bridging the divide between the student and the content, using methods based on the individual's learning style. As I think back to when I have achieved most success as a student, it was always because of a phenomenal educator who taught the content in ways that appealed to my learning style. I was immersed in the content, and I thrived because of it. I provide the same instructional strategies and experiences for my students, who vary from children with neurological differences such as Autism, Dyslexia, and other learning differences, to gifted students, to adults who never learned how to read or perform mathematics.

I am a full time Tutor with 11 years experience. I specialize in standardized exams, particularly the TEAS, HESI, ACT, SAT, and GED. I have been working with standardized secondary exams, math, and science for the last 8 years- classroom teaching, curriculum writing, and tutoring (both in person and online). I absolutely love working with this material, and helping individual students find their best strategies and achieve their goal score! I begin with standardized testing strategies. I assure my students have a solid understanding of the way their test is written, the types of questions to expect in each section, and the proper approach for each question. I then work to build my students knowledge base in the necessary skill areas. I focus on both the stronger subject areas, and the weaker. I ensure my students not only know what to expect as they progress through their test

I don’t have one specific teaching style that I apply to all students. I adapt my style to the student’s learning style. I believe in positive reinforcement; not negative feedback. I believe that all students can learn; they just need the necessary tools. They need to have a belief in themselves and a desire to work hard, and they can be successful. I believe in helping students understand how the material can be applied to their everyday lives and how they will benefit by obtaining this knowledge. I believe real-world examples help students understand the importance of what they are learning. I do not necessarily share my opinions on a specific subject; rather, I share the facts and help the student form their own opinions. I have a Master of Arts degree in Education and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Management. I have been an online adjunct professor and have numerous years of

As a scholar who has studied both in the United States and abroad, I have a broad range of experiences that enable me to approach teaching with an unique outlook. The excellence of my education of course under-girds my ability to tutor and to teach; this education is grounded in both a Liberal Arts knowledge of Western literature and a graduate level focus on Irish literature. At Creighton and at Queen's, I wrote several in depth research papers that required research, literary analysis, organization, and well-developed writing skills. Throughout my academic career, I have acted as an informal tutor for friends and fellow students. I believe education begins in each individual's experience of life and, as such, I whole-heartedly endorse an approach that reflects and considers the individual student and his/her life. Additionally, I believe literature can and does relate to our everyd

I graduated from Stephen F Austin State University in 2006 with a B.S. majoring in both Mathematics and Chemistry. I also have 20 college hours in Physics as well as 16 college hours in Biology. The educational goals of the departments is that it is not enough to do well on exams and homework, a successful student must be able to communicate the ideas and information to people of various levels of familiarity with the material. With this in mind students were expected to present material to the classmates, schoolmates and faculty in seminars from research projects. In addition to this I possess over 3 years experience teaching adults in professional development programs. I love Science and Mathematics, and sharing this knowledge and these ideas with others. I emphasize problem solving skills that start with defining the problem, then identifying the relevant data given and always keeping

I work with students very well. I make sure that they are able to connect with me, and enjoy the process of learning. It's important to like what you are studying, so that you can get the most out of it. I feel as though it is necessary for them to enjoy the setting they are in, and I do my best to accommodate them. Learning should not be something that students do not look forward to, contrary; they should be excited to learn something new. I make sure that this is one of my goals, so that they can get the ultimate satisfaction and have that desire to solve the problems and answer the questions on their own. I don't just consider it tutoring, I consider it mentoring. Due to my desire to increase my knowledge, I graduated a year early from my university with a BA in Psychology, and a minor in Political Science. I am currently in Graduate School, majoring in Community Counseling. This is
