Hello! I have 15 years of teaching experience in the classroom and have been tutoring now since January of 2012. I have a true passion for teaching!

My teaching experience and my hobby was directing and acting in productions. I have been a teacher for 40 years. I retired because family care-giving required my full attention. My studies prepared me to teach and my experience prepared me to meet the needs of each student. I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can help students with the organizational and learning skills that are important in a student’s success. I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my stude

I am a graduate of Tennessee Temple University, with experience tutoring at Tennessee Temple University, as well as University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, in various topics, including biodiversity, mathematics (up to pre-calculus), history, and American Sign Language. I continue to study in my personal time as many topics as possible, with the belief that a good tutor is firstly a good student. I allow my teaching style to mold itself to each individual student, finding methods of communicating the information that best suit the learning style of my student. I favor a holistic approach to learning, believing that education should be of the whole person. If a student learns how a skill in his tutoring session can be applied in real life, then his or her perception of the subject may fundamentally improve.

Anyone who selects my services should note my array of interests which are numerous, considering I do not limit myself to one subject. I am a two year history major with a life long interest in history. I am also an avid writer with various blogs, articles, and a few books either written or edited. Lastly, my interest in art is also life long as is my love of science, social studies and various other topics. I am the kind of person who is direct with my teaching. I do not sit around, I am there offering my services to help those who request my services. I teach them what the teachers do not or will not teach. I also help my clients understand the materials given to them and even help them find anything relating to their course of study which will help them in their assignments.

I have had some minor experiences as a teacher’s aide. Some of these included working one-on-one with children needing assistance in 7th grade language arts classes. I worked under the tutelage of two 7th grade language arts teachers. I prepared lessons, taught classes, and assessed student progress, supervised by the cooperating teachers. I was able to see how they both handled the curriculum, as well as managing their classes. However, I have not been strictly confined to the classroom. I served as a student assistant to the director of secondary education for a small urban school district. I read and reviewed curriculum guides. Lessons were to meet state standards. Endowing knowledge to children is my passion. I believe that every child can learn. It is up to the teacer to determine his/hers learning style and adapt to it. I am a strong proponent of active learning, w

The child is in the Center of learning, he must makes learning HIS or HER problem , the teacher is a link between the child and the knowledge, but also brings all his background, his skills, his affectivity, noone can learn without being a little bit attached to the teacher.

Over the many years I have worked as adjunct faculty at Maria College in Albany, NY and presently at St Johns Community College I have tutored students in writing papers,how to organize their study time,and to prepare for tests. I have taught medical terminolgy, various healthcare courses and psychology as well as theater scene study courses and acting skills. There are many ways to teach a variety of subjects but connecting the subject with the students life - connected learning is supported by Mary Belenky et al in her book, "Women's Ways Of Knowing." Mary was my professor at Goddard and I have found connecting learning with life experience has been an effective way to get students to understand the subject.Even Frank McCort (Angela's Ashes) describes this technique he used succesfully in his teaching.

I have an earned bachelor's degree in elementary education. I was also privileged to be one of the creators and researchers of Hammond Baptist Grade School Curriculum. I graduated from Hyles-Anderson College in 1984. I have experience teaching a variety of grade levels. I have tutored elementary students grades first through fifth in all subjects. Teaching is one of the joys of my life. Watching a student's eyes light up, their expression brighten when they grasp a concept, understand what they read for the first time and share what they have learned is priceless. My students are the future. They are potential. I believe repetition is the key to learning. Simple presentation of a subject and positive reinforcement of that concept pave the way for clear understanding.

I believe patients is the key to all with learning. Especially to children who have a hard time at school or may come from a family that education is not emphasized. Children no matter what age can feel fustration and anxiety from others remaining calm, positive and assuring is the best way to get a child relaxed enough to be able stopo worrying about all other things going on in the lifes and focus on the subject at hand. Letting them know you 'know' they can do it and will stick it out with them until they do. I believe that having one person who believes in them can change a childs life and how they feel about themselves and there educational future. Every decision we make in life is a result of consequences. I would love to be that postive emforcement and make a difference in a childs life.

I graduated from the University of North Fl,Cum Laude. I am certified to teach K-5. I am qualified beyond that level because I supplemented my income in college by researching, outlining and writing papers for other students. I also worked part-time as a tutor at the college level. I have a 20 year old son who is mentally challenged. I have become educated through research and his medical care about the needs of Special Education students. I have spent countless volunteer hours over the years working with these students in public and private schools. I also spent 3-4 years teaching adults computer programs. As a result, I am proficient at an intermediate/advanced level in Microsoft Word, Excel, WordPerfect, Lotus and Quickbooks Pro. I love teaching people of all ages. I believe any person is capable of learning if their education is made specific to their needs. Some people are auditory

I began teaching Speech and Dramatic Arts in 1997 after 20 years in private industry. Initially I taught in a K-8 parochial school. In 2004 I began teaching ESE children at the Broach School (private school)in both English and Reading to high needs 6th-12th graders. Many of these students had failed in the public school system. Over a three year period I was able to raise the average student 1.5 grade levels per year in language mechanics and vocabulary and 2.3 grade levels in reading comprehension. In 2008 I became employed at Tempette Learning Academy where I currently teach ESE students 6th-12th grades in English and Reading. I teach high needs, inner-city students every day, many of whom are classified as ESE. (Exceptional Student Education). I use a very engaged teaching style that encourages each child to work on an instructional-rather than a frustration-level. I believe all chil

I thoroughly enjoy teaching all ages, and because of my wide variety of experiences, I am able to keep the learning activities varied, relevant, and interesting. Working with so many ages and nationalities, I've become acutely aware of the many different styles of learning, and work hard to find methods that appeal to every learning style. I took the Montessori Method courses in my twenties, and was so fascinated by it I decided to get a degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood. From there, I went to on to teach all elementary grades and subjects in both private and public schools. For a time, I taught English as a Second Language to both children and adults, and then moved into my favorite area, music! Throughout all these fields of interest, one constant remains: learning is what keeps life dynamic, no matter what our age might be!

I would love to tutor kids as I have a passionate and great charisma to fulfill their need and make them happy. I am very easy going and teach students the easiest possible way to understand a subject and to better themselves in creating a unique style of learning. I believe that if students have a different way of constructing a studying habit differently and more accessible than what the teacher is implementing than it would be easier for the student to adhere to that material and be more familiar with the actual school curriculum. I use a lot of pictures and live examples to make this happen for them. It takes a whole village to raise a child. I have worked for Church organizations that offered tutoring programs for local children in grades from 4th to 10th grade. I have 2 Associate's Degree one in Business Administration and other in Merchandising. I have volunteered after school tut

I was enrolled in the Master's Program for Elementary Education at the University of Florida and volunteered over 300 hours in the public school system. I have only one year left before obtaining my advanced degree should I decide to return to school. I have also been a tutor and mentor for at-risk youth. I have volunteered with the public library and used to spend one day a week reading to children in foster homes. I have spent the past year as a Lead Teacher in Colorado where I was able to have my own classroom, assistant and students. I have worked with several children with special needs and was able to work with several professionals in the best way to teach my students. I keep an open mind that most children learn in different ways. I try to provide lots of different ways of learning the same subject.
