Elementary Social Studies Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Dover, OK

Hi! My name is Angee and I am excited about helping students uncover their love for learning. Education: I attend Liberty University. I will have my degree in Educational Psychology at the beginning of May 2015. I have taken many classes which allow me to use educational theories in my tutoring. Work experience: I started tutoring in 2009 when I tutored students at my college who were at risk for academic probation. In 2011, I spent a year tutoring a child I was a nanny for so he could enter kindergarten on time. In 2012, I started tutoring professionally for an online tutoring company which led to my face to face tutoring with WyzAnt in 2013. I currently work from home as an independent contractor for an online tutoring company and in my spare time, I like working on making resources for homeschoolers. I have extensive experience with special needs. This includes bein

I have been teaching for over 10 years. I am currently a second grade teacher. I tutor during the summers and have students of all ages, including middle school and high school. I believe all children can learn. It takes a special teacher to find out how a child learns and create lessons to engage that learning style. What works for one student doesn't always work for every student. I am a loving and positive teacher by nature. I strive to be a teacher that my students will remember for life, because our time was such a positive impact on their success.

Throw out my high school year I was in a program called “Learn and Serve”. This program consisted of going to the closest elementary school for an hour a day and be a teachers aid. Therefor, I help any student who was having difficulties. In some cases would even help teach a lesson if the only adult in the room was a sub teacher. I find diffrent ways to help children understand what they are learning in a fun way.

I've never tutored for money, but I usually help my friends out with homework, school work, ect. I just need the money, so I figured why not tutor? It seems fun. So, I got on here, and viola! Here I am! So. yeah. Not much paid experience, but I'm willing to negotiate on prices!!! I will have the occasional weird times when I will not be available ,thanks to JROTC, but most of the time I'll get out of school at 2:15-ish. I just do what works for the students. I find it easier to teach shyer kids, because that's how I was, but, I'm always up for a challenge!! Also, elementary kids are easier, but again, always up for a challenge! I usually try to figure out how they learn, maybe through a hobby, or something like that.

As a social worker, it is my nature to observe 'the prospective student' on a psychosocial level which enables me to prepare and teach in an affective manner, tailored to meet individual needs. I prefer to 'coach' rather than 'teach'. It is customary for me to utilize emotional and mental support, which, I believe is the catalyst for a student to become successful. As a former GED participant, I furthered my educational experience to include a bachelors level in college. I 'know' from personal experience that an education is obtainable, at any level one desires and is willing to work for. My experience, knowledge and skills are multifaceted and reach far beyond the classroom experience. I have utilized my skills since before I graduated college in 1992, while working with 'at risk' youth in a group home placement. I am proficient in teaching various life skills; ie., communication skills

I love helping children achieve their educational goals. I am a firm believer in giving back to our communities through helping children that are struggling academically. My style of teaching in through facilitating and allowing the pupil to engage the thought process. I have an analytical style personality. Therefore, I like to help students discover the processes behind learning new material. I don't believe there are any subjects that are particularly harder than other subjects. I believe in inspiring students to becoming naturally inquisitive about the unknown. As an MBA graduate, I have a level of success in business and business management. I have earned a B.S. in Organizational Management with a minor in Mathematics and an M.B.A. in Organizational Leadership.

I currently have a bachelors degree in sociology with a minor in elementary education. During the past 4 years and working in the early childhood education industry I realized that many teachers were not getting the proper training that they needed to receive to help the children that they are serving. Once I realized this I decided to work on my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education in hopes that i could be an Early Childhood College Professor and teach students the ins and outs of the early childhood industry. While getting my bachelors degree I tutored in subjects such as reading,writing, math, and science as well as art. I believe that all students learn differently and should be treated as so; with this being said i believe that each student should work at their own pace and should be helped to find strategies that help them learn.

As a graduate in Education with a 3.84 grade point, I strive for excellence in everything that I do. I have taken some graduate classes in child psychology and human physiology to gain a better understanding of the children that I will be working with and teaching. I have taught in a private school for 3 years and the public elementary school system for 4. Every child has something to contribute to our community if only given the opportunity and tools to do so. Children can learn whether they are visual, kinesthetic, or auditory learners. It's my goal to teach to their strengths and abilities. I am positive, flexible, and eager to teach the skills and knowledge to be successful. With their curiosity they will ask their own questions and I will be there to nurture their discoveries. My goal is to be a motivator and an educator; a mentor and an advocate; a positive force and a guide to

I believe teaching style depends on the student, and that student's learning style. A key element to determining this is knowing where the student's strengths lie--auditory, visual, or tactile-kinesthetic learning styles require different approaches, but a combination of the three enhances the overall understanding achieved.

My teaching style is based largely on the priority academic student skills for Oklahoma. I have used Alpha Plus, Study Island, Destination Success by Riverside, Literacy First, You Can Learn, and Buckle Down software and written materials. I utilize several self motivating materials. I teach them how to acquire relevant data, how to retain it,and retrieve prior knowledge. My strength, is giving students a sense of pride, accomplishment, and building their self esteem. I have a great deal of patience with children who want to avoid learning. I have never taught a child that has not made their impact in my own life. As a graduate in special education, with emphasis in speech and hearing, I helped students improve language skills and articulation deficiencies. I used their curriculum and texts. I then obtained my master's degree in Special Education - Mild/Moderate Disabilities, and

From early on in my high school career I understood that passing AP tests could mean graduating from college in 3 years, saving money for grad school, and a chance to get into the professional world sooner. That's exactly what I did. I had to take some summer school and intersession classes, but I endured. All the while I was involved with an organization on campus that worked to educate the student body on a number of environmental issues, worked with volunteers on events and campaigns, and trained my peers to take the same leadership that I did. I am first and foremost a listener. I'm laid back and patient but understand that success on exams and in school does not come to most without hard work and challenging yourself to go out on a limb. I believe that the best way to learn is to make materials apply to you and things going on around you.
