A Little Bit About Me...

My approach is to encourage students to define their learning goals and then to discover how the learning the content can help them achieve their goals. I like to use real life examples to help students recall what they have learned. I am less interested in rote memorization. I tend to be structured and patient.
I am a seasoned veteran of working for a large agency with multiple responsibilities across the State of Virginia. I have been tutoring, mentoring, teaching, training, and instructing on many subjects during my career. I have passion and dedication to whatever subjects I teach and I plan to impart a sense of enthusiasm in the subject matter with my students. I also teach coursework at the University level.

More About This Tutor...

I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this.
My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

Life Science is one of my top subjects! I work with middle school science students.

I have taught at-risk students at Wilder Middle School for six years and Brentwood High School for five years. I come with a wealth of classroom experience . I have been on the "frontlines" of education for more than a decade. I had to be resourceful and patience to meet the educational needs of my children.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with college students in the past, working with comprehensive learning and mathematics. I learned that each student understands in their own personal way; some learn by seeing something concrete and for others it is working through the steps in the problem that helps them understand. I have also had the experience of teaching a freshman seminar class where the focus was finding the students strong point or drive and having them research their major or likes to find what job fields might fit them well.
I love teaching all ages, but have experience working with college freshman. I believe that these students are at an age where they need to realize their dreams and need help to gain confidence within themselves. My strong point is within Math, but also comprehension. Written words and puzzles are not always easily understood. Some people need facts to help them learn o ... read more

I have spent most of my adult life helping children learn. I have worked in childcare facilities, as well as in public and private schools and as a private tutor. I have taught or worked with preschoolers through 5th graders. I've worked with special needs children, as well (ADD/ADHD, LD, ED, and ODD, for example). I've helped students improve their grades by two letter grades over the course of the year, and helped some achieve honor roll for the first time in their lives. I have tutored reading and math, as well as having taught all basic elementary school subjects.
I firmly believe ALL children can learn, but not everyone learns in the same way. I do my best to make a positive difference in their lives. I'm very patient and always listen to my students. I give my students tips to help them learn something and get them to repeat information back to me as we work so I know they un ... read more

As a tutor, I review previous test, quizzes and work with the student to see where the "disconnect" lies. Most students are very capable, they just need someone to explain the material in a way they understand. Some students are visiual learners, other kinetic learners or they learn by doing. As I understand how the child learns and ask questions to see "why" the student chose the particular answer, I am able to see the problem and use a different teaching style for tutoring purposes.
I was a tutor for the School of Business and Economics in Elizabeth City where I earned by BS in Business in 2003. I tutored beginning through Intermediate accounting, Principles of Marketing and other business subjects from 2000-2003. I was a formal tutor for one year and a student tutor for 2 years. I currently tutor family members, friends and church members in all basic elementary through col ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

When I teach reading, I convey my love of reading. When I teach math, I convey the logical beauty of math. When I teach other subjects, I stress the importance of the material and how it is relevant to everyday life. In Sunday school this week, we combined with another class, so there were people there who aren’t usually. Several of them thanked me and let me know how much they got out of it. My response is that I am a teacher. It’s who I am and what I do.
I was a corporate trainer for 3 years, followed by 12 years serving as a software instructor. Prior to and throughout this time, I also taught Sunday school and Vacation Bible school, teaching everyone from 2 year olds to adults. I spent one summer as a reading tutor, and many of my software classes have been 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. I have volunteered as an SOL coach and in Head Start classrooms.

More About This Tutor...

I have gained diverse teaching experience beginning in college, in which I taught a class to struggling freshman. I then attained my Master's in Teaching. Because I was a December graduate, I worked for the remaining school year with elementary-aged students who needed additional services in reading. I then moved into the full-time classroom, in which I specialize in reading, math, science, social studies, and technology.
Teaching has always been my calling because I love children. All children are learners, just in different ways. I enjoy finding what it is that drives a child to learn. I am a huge advocate of using technology to facilitate learning. I also believe that learning should be meaningful and build upon prior experiences. Education is key, and great educators look first at the child and then within to find strategies to best reach each child's needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a BS in Elementary Education from Kent State University. I have taught 7th grade Language Arts, 4th grade, and remedial reading. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the skills needed for reading comprehension, writing, and how to meet individual learning needs. I also served as department chairperson and Standards of Learning resource teacher. Those responsibilities allowed me to gain a more in-depth knowledge of the subject. I have also worked at a learning center and did some after-school tutoring in multiple subjects. It has helped me to quickly assess a student's needs, and make the most of the time we have together.
I enjoy working with all children. I believe all students are able to learn, but it is up to me to figure out the best way to teach each child. I have found that role-modeling works very well. No matter what the topic, role-modeling allows ... read more
