I have been an elementary school teacher for the past four years. I teach at a private school in Columbia, SC. I currently teach fourth grade, and pride myself at being a phenomenal math teacher. Teaching academics is extremely important, but also teaching character education is important also. When a student is proud of themselves, they can become self motivated and willing to improve themselves.
Hands on

My comments on tutoring Life Science : Video demonstrations, diagrams, and vocabulary crosswords really work well.

I excel at identifying each students strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. I can quickly adapt or create lessons as needed. Most of my students look forward to our time together, as we have fun, but get our work done.
I homeschooled my three daughters for 10 years, right through high school. All three have gone on to Colllege and have excelled, making the Dean's list. In the work world, two have been highly praised for their writing skills. After homeschooling, I began tutoring. I have over 5 years experience and have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students, as well as adults preparing for exams such as the GED. I am experienced working with students who have IEP's and learning disabilities. Call or text at number below to discuss your needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel as though I am highly qualified and competitive for a teaching position because of my abilities to relate to children of all ages. As a volunteer basketball referee at Northside Baptist Church, Upward basketball program since 1998, I work with children between the ages of 7 and 13. I teach them about basketball and sportsmanship. As a parent of a 17 year old son, I constantly mentor him and his friends on life, school and everything in between. I really enjoy talking to these young men and giving them information about the importance of education. This seems to have a positive impact on the decisions they are starting to make. I am very eager to get into the school system as a full time teacher. I enjoy working with children and desire to be a role model for the youth of today. I look forward to asset the school district and impacting my community through leadership ... read more

As a Summa Cum Laude graduate of Towson University with a degree in elementary and special education, I have always pushed myself to achieve excellence. I have a collaborative personality and strong interpersonal and communication skills. As a graduate with a dual major, I am able to bring background knowledge and experience from both the general education and special education perspective. In addition to the collaborative training I received, Towson has adequately prepared me to be a facilitator of active learning in other ways. My dual degree afforded sufficient training for me to asses and provide differentiated instruction to all students based on their individual learning needs, whether they are exceptional learners or not.

I graduated with an M.Ed. in Higher Education and Student Affairs from the University of South Carolina in May of 2010. Directly after graduating, I began a career as an Academic Advisor in the Moore School of Business Undergraduate Division at the University of South Carolina. I currently still hold this job. I also taught a University 101 course to 25 incoming freshmen in the Fall of 2010. This course included helping the students get acquainted with resources on campus, learn study/time management strategies, and much more. Also, while in graduate school, I worked about 5-10 hours per week as an Academic Success Coach in the Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) at the University of South Carolina.

Teaching children is the greatest fulfillment of all. Children are the future and they require great educators and mentors. Every child learns in their own way and I am here to help your child achieve success in their academic studies. I am attentive, accommodating, flexible, and patient. Every child is a unique individual with unique needs and backgrounds which is why I believe that teaching through an active, social process like constructivism is a great way for children to learn. I will help your child get to their own understanding of the content at hand. I look forward to making a positive impact on all of my students and helping them succeed.
Having graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry I have always been passionate about the sciences and getting others excited about them as well. I was awarded a number of grants ... read more

A description of my teaching style would be: building relationships. As a teacher I feel I am patient and caring. I feel that in order for children to learn they must feel valued. This is true with all humans. Studies show that students learn best when they feel safe and valued, and this is the type of environment that I like to set in my classroom. I also feel that in order for children to understand and connect to new knowledge, they must first connect to prior knowledge. This type of approach I feel is essential in teaching children new concepts. I allow my students to be the leader, and play a role as an expert while making connections between new and prior knowledge. I feel that this builds a child’s confidence and gives them the support they need to take risks. I do understand that they are different types of learners and as a teacher I differentiate my instruction based o ... read more

I was an teacher assistant for a chemistry lab for an organic lab for one semester at the University of South Carolina. I made sure students understood concepts and graded reports.

I have earned a bachelor degree in Biology from Harvey Mudd College and master degree in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. As a result of this, I have gained a high level of proficiency in the subjects of math and science.

A Little Bit About Me...

As someone who is pursuing a PhD in epidemiology, I have a passion for teaching, mentoring, and reaching out to students. I expect excellence from students because I invest 100% of my time and effort into their learning experience. I also hold an MPH in public health and a BS in Biology. During my academic career, I have written and/or contributed to several research articles. Also, for the past year, I have been working as a teaching assistant (TA) at a university, where I hold office hours for students to come in and ask questions on epidemiological concepts that may not be so clear. Because this subject area requires both knowledge of science and math, I am well-versed in various areas of science and math.
I am an enthusiastic person by nature. I love meeting with students and learning from them as they learn from me. I believe this establishes a relationship based on ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In my ten years of experience as a teacher I have accomplished many things of which I am proud. My second year of teaching I was asked to implement a reading intervention program district-wide. After two years of that, I started a school within a school for at-risk students. The last two years of my career I helped to pilot and then implement single gender classrooms school-wide. Four years ago I decided to pursue my National Board certification. I have my MAT as well. In addition to these things, I also sponsored Beta Club and Student Council for three years. I have tutored seven year olds through adults. I have tutored reading, math, SAT prep, and GRE prep (verbal and quantitative.)
I believe to be a good teacher you have to be creative, patient, challenging and persevering. I love working with students who have not had success in school and show them how to reach ... read more
