A Little Bit About Me...

I am very relational. I just don't give the answers; I want to be shown that you understand why that is the correct answer. I try to make English as interesting and easy to understand as possible because I know that for some it's incredibly difficult.
I am a Secondary Education-English major at University of South Carolina Aiken. I am well prepared to help with any English related questions or homework you have. I am on the Dean's List for the university which shows scholastic achievement. I have, or am currently taking, many English, literature, and creative writing classes. I am always willing to help out anyone who needs it.

Teaching with Success in Mind!

I have been an educator for the past 8 years, serving as an elementary teacher, middle and high school teacher, and ESL teacher. I have also taught online and in a tutoring company. I am a big believer in individualized instruction, and I think tutoring is one of the best ways for a student to learn. I have some unique teaching experiences in international schools in Macedonia, and I have also taught in Thailand and the U.S. I am passionate about learning and I love seeing my students succeed in their own academic/language endeavors!
I individualize instruction based on the student's goals, learning styles, and age. I love to learn and so try to make learning as fun as possible for my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with children in the public school system for thirty-four years as a classroom teacher, Title I augmented reading teacher and as a media specialist. Largely due to my years experience as a reading teacher my class of inner city children scored in the top one percentile on the Georgia Criterion Reference Test(GA CRCT) in Reading. I have always felt that if you give a child the wings to fly via reading and life long love of learning they can achieve whatever they desire in life, and I think I have been quite successful in this area.
My strongest area of expertise in teaching is reading. I have taught it for years. I have come to the conclusion through both personal experience, observation of other master teachers and through current educational research that it is most necessary to teach reading and math daily in a systematic manner while exposing the students to a le ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been working with youth, especially "at-risk" youth, for over ten years now. I believe all children can become the best, but the individual has to be creative. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the proper experience as well as the appropriate surrounding to learn in. I am dedicated and in love with making a change in all my student's lives.
As an Georgia Southern Univesity graduate, I always had a passion for enabling our youth to become the best that they can be. I have earned a degree from Georgia Southern University, BS in Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, and a minor in Sports Medicine and Kinesiology. I am also persuing a masters in Sports and Management and recreation. I have extensive science skills and math skills due to me currently teaching math and also teaching biology in my prior years. I have tutored students in several subjects ... read more

One of the most difficult challenges in high-need schools is how to engage them to study. Based on my experience, children in low-income communities are more concerned of earning a living. Furthermore, they approach life on day to day basis rather on a long term approach. Using this knowledge, I would like to show to the students how education can be used as a step in improving one’s status in life. A high-need school will certainly be filled with personalities. My experience allowed me to develop my teaching methods depending on the type of students.
Before going to college, I thought hard on what course I should take. As a child, I really enjoyed working with other people and sharing what I know with others. This is one of the reasons why I considered teaching as a job. After completing my Undergraduate education I went on to pursue a degree in medicine, because I had always been ... read more

I'm very laid back and just enjoy being around children. Every child is different and has different interests and difficulties. One box does not fit all, and it's a matter of figuring out how to relate to the child at hand and make the subject matter appealing to them that I enjoy the most.
I spent 4 years in college teaching preschool, as well as 2 years as a high-needs reading tutor for the psych dept at my university. My degree is in journalism/English Lit and my GPA in Lit was a 3.7. I have three children of my own, and they are all avid readers, with my oldest reading 150+ books per school year. I'm well-aware of the current and classical children's literature out there, and taught both of my older children to read - at 5 and 3, respectively.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a BS in Physical Education. My major was Athletic Training, which has prepared me to gain extensive knowledge in Biology and Anatomy & Phys. I also have prior tutoring experience helping with students at my church and family members who were younger than me. I have helped tutor students with all major subjects.
I am a patient, understanding, and considerate person. I love the sight of a child learning something after a person takes the time to show the steps. At the moment, I am unemployed throughout the week so i can meet with a child/children whenever they need me. I also can help a child through their personal problems because it is not always that a child does not understand the information; sometimes they have other things affecting their lives. I want to be able to make a difference in a child life forever.

More About This Tutor...

Since elementary school, I have known the value of a good education and I have always had a strong drive and love for learning. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Exercise and Sports Science and a master's degree in Applied Exercise Physiology, which has allowed me to attain knowledge in diverse areas of science. Also, I have acquired extensive composition skills due to scientific research/laboratory reports, as well as essay assignments in my other areas of study. During the last five years I have taught collegiate classes, and for three years before that I volunteered my time at a church outreach group in tutoring elementary and high school children in English, mathemathics, and various sciences.
I love working with children of all ages. I understand that all children have a different way of learning, which does not make them "special", but unique as individuals. I am very ... read more

My goal is to teach high school English. I have several years experience working with youth in teaching roles, including tutoring both math and english. For 11 months in Ecuador I taught English, Health, Phys. Ed., and career skills to elementary school working children and literacy to their parents. Other experiences include 6 weeks teaching project management and career skills to high school girls in DC, 6 months teaching at a special ed. school, and 5 summers as a head counselor for kids with a variety of disabilities. I also took 24 credit hours of painting, drawing, sculpture, and art history classes in college.
I believe that every child has a natural desire and ability to learn. When I teach I focus on the students' interests and give them as much free choice as possible in order to encourage their natural sense of wonder and to maintain a warm environment. That said ... read more

I use a constructivist approach to teaching with engaging lessons using real-world situations as a foundation. Learning can be applied to the interest of the individual student to exhibit mastery of the standards required at each level. All students learn differently, so my first goal as an educator is to identify a student’s learning style(s) then plan lessons accordingly. I set high, yet reasonable, expectations for my students and they seldom fail to accomplish any task required of them.
As a professional educator, I have five years experience in working with both adolescents and adults in the public high school environment. I am currently an adjunct English instructor at Piedmont Technical College in Greenwood, South Carolina. In both my undergraduate and graduate studies, the emphasis has always been on professional writing skills. In addition, I have extensive training ... read more

With my Bachelor's degree, I began tutoring through Reading Success and conducted private tutoring of Georgia History. I progressed to teaching English, Spanish, and some Special Education Resource classes at the High School level, and continued to teach lower level English classes at a local college along with reading in an Adult Continuing Education program through another college. My writing skills have been sharpened as I edited and wrote articles for newsletters, newspaper releases, and in an administrative capacity.
I enjoy teaching and do my best to make learning fun and easy for my pupils. I approach lessons by letting the student realize how and why the lesson is important and how it relates to their lives. I firmly believe everyone can learn; the style in which they learn may differ from others, but given the correct approach, all teachers/tutors can be successful.
