I'm ready to help you in the way that suits you best!

I believe in engaging the students in their learning. In order to avoid boredom and to get students active in their learning, they need to move, collaborate, and have discussions and Socratic Circles to debate and argue their ideas in a reasonable way to prepare them for what goes beyond grade school. Students should be involved in projects that involve creation, and thinking outside of the box. We should be teaching our students to use digital tools in order to take an interest in learning outside of the classroom. And because of so much technology, students have information at their fingertips, which means instead of memorization and recall questions, we should have students explain what they have learned through a variety of methods using a variety of research. Also as teachers, we should be guides to the students as they navigate through the information overload and prepare to e ... read more

If you want something bad enough, you must fight for it.

I have always written, and I have always loved doing it. The same goes for reading. I have tutored various class mates through college, and have also worked at a children's enrichment center (I am currently employed there) where I teach basic reading and writing. I am also currently editing a friends novel. I made the Dean's list two years in a row, graduated with the two highest literary awards under my belt, and I have been published in the Equinox and In My Lifetime.
I am patient but firm. If a student isn't willing to put in a 100% effort then I will not waste my time. I have always gotten exemplary grades from anyone I've tutored. I teach each student differently, some are more visual, or auditory, or hands-on, and I adjust my methods to better benefit my students. Bottom line: I will work hard for you, and I expect you to work hard for you too.

More About This Tutor...

Beginning as a teacher assistant while earning a Bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Missouri, I have helped others learn the tenets of writing for mass consumption. I have worked as a writer or editor in newspapers and for web sites the past 25 years, offering others assistance in rewriting or reorganizing their work to better conform for publication. I taught an introductory writing course for UALR's journalism school, where I put students through daily writing exercises and helped teach them the standard pyramid news writing format.
I enjoy helping others realize they have the ability to tell a compelling story through words. I am available to help your child find their voice through the written word. With patience and consideration of their individual backgrounds and talents, I believe I can help provide them journalistic guidelines that will enable them to w ... read more

My teaching style is whatever best fits the student. When working one on one with a student I practice a few different methods of teaching and whichever one they feel the most comfortable with and I receive the most attentiveness from, is the one that I continue to use. For example, some students prefer that you walk them through a lesson, go over a few practice problems and then let them work on assignments, knowing that they have you to assist them when needed. Others might want to jump into the assignment and when a question arises, they ask you to refer to the lesson to help them find the solution.
I have earned my Master's and Bachelors and am currently seeking my PHD. I enjoy learning and sharing knowledge with others. My business degrees, and over 10 years of professional experience in the workforce, I am a confident instructor in Mathematics, English and Communications ... read more

I consider myself a facilitator, not an authoritarian. I ascribe to the principles set forth by Malcolm Knowels and Benjamin Bloom. I rely on the strength and motivation of the student. I hesitate to call myself "teacher." I think I serve better as a guide which, hopefully, leads his client not just to a more enlightend place, but also to the place the client wants to be, or had in mind in the first place.
I started teaching Music in 1984. I taught part-time, temporary while pursuing education goals and working as a professional musician. In 1998 I became an adult educator, and in the following nine years I taught GED, Workforce, Computer and ESL. I learned to speak Spanish from some of my ESL students. Today I run a new program called Bachillerato de las Americas en Arkansas, comprised of curricula obtained from Kingston, Jamaica and Heredia, Costa Rica. I enjoy teaching all ag ... read more

I am currently beginning my Masters in Education, so tutoring is just a stepping stone for me! I currently hold a BS in Exercise Physiology. I have a great understanding of science, math, and general education courses. I have previous experience in tutoring, mostly in math (Algebra) and Anatomy/Physiology.
I enjoy all age groups, anyone with a willingness to learn. I am very determined to help those in need find academic success. I also understand that each student is different, so the same learning technique does not work for everyone.

More About This Tutor...

A native of Little Rock, I have always been drawn to the film and writing department at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. After completing my Associate's degree at Pulaski Technical College, I was anxious to begin my BA in Rhetoric and Writing at the university. Within one semester, I found a thriving writing community in the University Writing Center where I began tutoring, and eventually I became a graduate assistant for a total of about 5 years. For the past year, I have been an Adjunct Professor of Composition and Film at both Pulaski Technical College and the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, and have continued to tutor in writing and English skills.
I thoroughly enjoy tutoring high school and college students, and I thrive on watching them grow to their fullest potential. I am patient and easy going and I believe in making the learning experience fun. I app ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I studied many different theories of learning while in psychology and fundamentally understand what it means to be a teacher. My teaching style allows the student to learn the material as independently as possible and improve their critical thinking skills, by asking the right type of questions and finding the student's best learning style. I am very patient and am willing to put forth the effort to make sure the student improves during our session.
I graduated from the University of Central Arkansas with a double major in Psychology and Philosophy. I also received a minor in Interdisciplinary studies through the Honor's College at UCA. I wrote several different research papers in Psychology, excelled in critical thinking and symbolic logic courses in philosophy, and also completed an undergraduate thesis through the Honor's college. I would be able to improve any child's critical ... read more

I have been involved in a lot of activities and feel the best way to teach is to relate to the student. As a tutor, I have worked with many different types of students and I found a way to relate the information to something they were interested in. I believe all students are capable of learning the material; it just has to be presented in a way they understand.
I received my BS degree in 2007 in pre-medicine. I majored in pre-professional zoology and I have a minor in biochemistry. I also worked at the Talent Development Center as a tutor for biology, botany, chemistry and biochemistry. I have a strong background in all science courses and maintained a 3.87 GPA throughout college.

First and foremost, I understand that no two children learn the same. I believe many children struggle in a learning environment simply because they are not comfortable with it. I excel at personal communication, and make it my first goal to find out how the student is going to learn the best. Whether it requires dancing, music, pictures, whatever it takes, once a student is comfortable they are far more likely to absorb information. This holds true for any age. I want the student to understand that they are capable of learning anything, they just may not have had the right opportunity to yet. That said, I like to make exercises fun, but I know when and when not to be stern. I strongly believe I can befriend any student I teach, and that together we can work through any problem, personal or personal, that may arise.
Coming from a smaller school, I understand the importance of ... read more
