Patient tutor who helps with content AND study strategies.

Working one-on-one with the student to assess their current level and what study methods will work for them. Will prepare before tutor session if you send curriculum/specific problems!
I've helped in my mother's elementary and middle school classrooms since age ten. In high school and college, I loved coordinating study groups and helping (and learning from) my peers. Hoping to help both children/teens and adults as they endeavour to learn! I'm a current student at NAS Pensacola - so I'm always reviewing learning techniques myself and revising my strategies.

Energetic Honors College Student Willing to Teach Others

Over the course of my education I have taken almost every course offered in most public schools. I have taken numerous AP courses and passed the exams following the classes to gain college credit. I was accepted into the University of South Alabama Honors College and was awarded the Mitchell Business Scholars Scholarship from South Alabama. I scored a 32 on my ACT and graduated high school with a 3.89 GPA and represented the top 10% of my class upon graduating.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences. I have taken courses such as Biology, Chemistry, Genetics, Immunology, Microbiology, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Cell Biology, Physics and Comparative Anatomy, and Mammailian Physiology. I also taught the labs for the Microbiology for three years and also taught the labs for Comparative Anatomy for a year. I worked with hundreds of students and throughly enjoyed that time with my students.
I worked first hand with professor and teaching assistant and have learned what they are looking for. I believe in teaching concepts and helping students fully understand ideals rather than students just memorizing facts. This way no matter what the professor asks they will know how to answer questions and ace exams. If they just memorize things, they can get confused and get answers distorted. I believe in hands on learning and teaching. I w ... read more

Coming from a family of educators, I knew from an early age that I would become a teacher myself; therefore, all the steps taken to prepare for my professional life have been to enable me to be the best teacher I can be. I received both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the University of South Alabama. I received classroom teaching experience at a local middle school and as a university instructor. I currently have an extremely rewarding position with the Mobile Housing Board developing, coordinating, and instructing GED preparation classes. With this program I teach GED concepts and both group and individually tutor numerous students. I take pride in the fact that 100% of the students I referred to the official GED test obtained their GED. Unfortunately, the grant I work under has expired, and I will now explore more opportunities in the world of education.

More About This Tutor...

In my military experience, I see all sorts of learning styles and ability levels. I am able to break down hard concepts of math/science/engineering so that regardless of learning style, we can work towards understanding. I find that many students struggle because no professor has taken the time to relate it to the student in a way that they can internalize and retain. I firmly believe that everyone can reach their potential if high expectations are set and a path to reach goals is set forth. I chose to become a teacher in my spare time because I think that children deserve to be pushed to the highest standards to achieve goals, so the student’s success is my total focus. I’m relaxed, considerate, professional , and very flexible.

I love the written word and reaching people, so I ultimately chose to major in journalism. My love for teaching and instructing students led me to pursue my minor in education. In the past three years, I've tutored undergraduates in writing (grammar, composition, etc), graduate students (editing theses), proofing resumes and technical documents, and tutoring elementary and high school students in reading and basic math.
College students are difficult to work with because they think they know it all. This was a blessing in disguise because it taught me not only to learn different ways to tutor a student, but also to figure out through body language and little signals as to whether or not they were actually comprehending the information. Teaching is not just giving information and hoping they retain it. My teaching style consists of teaching, asking questions to ensure they know or u ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching freshman composition at the university level for the past 12 years. I have taught all forms of written communication, such as classical argumentation, proposals, creative writing, essays, business writing, rhetoric, responding to emails, memos, etc. Written prose has the power to change lives and learning to write well can mean the difference between mediocrity and excellence. It is also an essential form of communication that is vital to success in today's society. Writing is a skill that is learned; everyone can learn to write well and I can teach you this skill. I look forward to meeting and working with you.
I have always enjoyed working with students one-on-one. To teach effectively one must understand what motivates the individual, and the only way to do that is to spend time with that person. If a student is a visual learner, I will use visual aids to ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I come into contact with a variety of different students with different areas of interest as a public speaking teacher. My teaching philosophy is to recognize that every student needs, wants, and gets something different from their studies, and it is my job to help them do just that. Rather than conduct a “one size fits all” class, I work with my students individually to guide them in their research and help them get the most out of their speeches. I believe it is important for them to choose topics that interest them as a way to learn about an area they already like and become excited about delivering speeches, something that most students fear.
I have always valued the importance of a quality education and have encouraged friends with no college ambition to start working on their degrees. I am not, however, an elitist. I think every endeavor is a learning experience, but there ar ... read more

In the past, my classes have lasted up to three hours at a time. Thus, I have been forced to implement new methodologies in order to not only keep my students focused and interested, but continually learning as well. I incorporate fun activities such as creative writing and music into my lessons while still closely following the curriculum. I believe that education can be both entertaining and beneficial, just as I believe that all students are capable of reaching new heights of academic excellence. All it takes is a little bit of patience and creativity on both sides, the teacher and the student, to have an unforgettable experience.
I have two English-related degrees from the University of Miami, Print Journalism and Creative Writing (Poetry Focus). Since graduating in 2005, I have worked as a teacher in South Korea, Miami Beach, FL, and here in the greater Pensacola area. My clas ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Sciences, with honors, and am currently working toward the completion of a Ph.D. in Basic Medical Sciences. My scientific training supports a proficiency in technical and mathematical concepts. I am also an accomplished and published writer; accordingly, my written composition skills are well-developed. Over the past seven years, I have tutored students in English, written composition, mathematics, and the sciences. I have also successfully guided many high school students through the oftentimes intimidating process of ACT and/or SAT preparation. My instruction has been extraordinarily effective in helping students boost their academic performance, including their test scores.
I am young, enthusiastic, understanding, and patient. I am passionate about teaching, and it is my foremost goal to direct students toward academic suc ... read more

I have studied Latin for 7 years, and have earned 27 credit hours at the collegiate level in the field with a 4.0 average in those courses in Latin Poetry, Latin Prose Composition, Latin Epistolary Writings, and Liturgical Latin. I have tutored 7 students in 100 and 200 level Latin courses at Franciscan University of Steubenville over the past 3 years.

More About This Tutor...

I began teaching/tutoring while in graduate school. I tutored undergrads in sociology, psychology, and social statistics. I also taught driver's education to high school students while in grad school. After ten years working in law enforcement, I switched to social services and I have been mentoring children in foster care for the past twenty years.
I try to keep the material fresh and I avoid boredom and repetition at all costs. One of my best tools to connect with a young person is through humor. If the student feels relaxed they are more likely to absorb the information. I also use reverse psychology to turn the tables so they actually find themselves teaching me the material. This has been a successful tool with children I have mentored as well as my own children.
