Reluctant & Struggling Readers can become Good Readers!

I worked for 12 years as a Special Education teacher in the public school system, teaching students with ADD, learning disabilities, autism, Aspergers, emotional and behavior disorders, and mild intellectual disabilities in a resource room and inclusion setting. I am able to quickly make significant connections with the students, building the good rapport that is essential to achieving a good working relationship. I especially enjoy working with reluctant and struggling readers, and nothing makes me happier than to see them overcome the obstacles that have kept them from success.

Typing Skills is one of my top subjects!

I graduated high school in 2008. I then attended West Ga Tech., for over a year. I majored in technical communications and took numerous computer classes. I love computers and Math. Those are my two favorite subjects but I am pretty well rounded, there's not much I can't do. I'm very self motivated and enjoy helping people better themselves. I work full time right now as a staffing agent, helping people get jobs. I'm only 22 recently out of college so most of the school subjects are still fresh in my memory.

I have had a lot of experience in several Georgia school systems. I have taught, student taught, and substituted. I have done long term substituting a couple times. I have tutored several students. I studied education at Columbus State University. I have experience in elementary, middle, and high school. I have the most experience at the elementary and middle school levels though.
My teaching style depends on the students needs. I believe students learn in different ways. I try to make sure my teaching styles fit the students I am working with. I believe that all students can benifit from hands on learning. I enjoy teaching in a hands on manner.

My experience includes 2 years as a Youth Counselor for the City of Tallahassee (1999 & 2001). I am also the oldest of 5 children with the age difference ranging from 6-16 years, so I've had the responsibility of assisting my siblings with school work. I currently continue to provide assistance as requested by my parents or siblings. I recently began mentoring a prospective accounting major who is in her 2nd year of college and I provide help with her studies. In High School, I took accounting courses as elective and participated in FBLA (a business club) and won first place in an accounting competition (2000). My work experience includes 3 years of general accounting and 2 years of specializing in tax accounting.

More About This Tutor...

For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I was selected, by the International Teachers Abroad Program at Vanderbilt (ITAP), to teach graduate level, teaching assistants, how to enhance their ability to communicate in English and to communicate their subject matter to undergraduate students. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, I began working full-time at a modern-day orphanage. This 12-year experience gave me plenty of opportunities to expand my skill set with special needs and at-risk, male youth. In addition to tutoring, I train in the areas of broadcast production and editing as well as business development.

I am a recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in TESOL. While a senior in college, I taught an intermediate ESL class for a semester and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also minored in Business/Office Administration and took specialized classes in Windows Vista and Microsoft Office programs. In addition, I have taught beginner and intermediate private piano lessons for two years. I also acquired some experience with special needs when I worked after school as a personal aide to a non-verbal teenage girl with severe autism.
I have taught a variety of skills and ages, from 1st graders in piano lessons to elderly adult immigrants learning the English language. I have a desire to meet people on their level and encourage them grow. I strive for an atmosphere that is both positive and structured that is a help to both my students and their parents.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible for anyone to learn; some people just have to take a different approach to get to their objective. I love the entire learning and teaching process, and I am pretty fond of people as well!
I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Reflective of my disposition, immediately in order to establish a conducive learning environment in which the student feels comfortable, I try to employ a mellow, patient, open-minded and light-hearted atmosphere. I very much enjoy teaching, and try to make it so my student(s) enjoys learning. I was once asked by a student, "Are you a Biology teacher?" I replied, "No, just a student." She replied, "You should be." Generally I review and outline the material before-hand. During the session I welcome questions, and offer explanations relating direct facts, my own take on the subject/idea, diagrams, and even relevant fun stories to help them remember the fact/idea.
As a University of West Georgia Biology Workshop Leader I was responsible for checking pre-workshop practice problems, working through workshop problems with the students, administering tests, grading the said tests, keep ... read more

My style of teaching involves discussion, reading, writing, and hands on. if possible. I strive to get my students to feel comfortable which I find brings out creative thinking. I have experience teaching students with slow or difficult learning abilities and students with handicaps such as blind or deaf. My department dean saw my abilities in working with special needs students and placed the students in my classes. I believe one-on-one teaching builds trust with students and relaxes them. I motivate students by installing a positive outlook in the students mind. While in the USN, I and was selected by the Admiral of the Naval War College as the Command Career Counselor where I guided enlisted sailors in their naval career.

As an Ivy League graduate, I pursued what I felt would lead me to a fullfilling career in Finance. After a few years I was lead to do what I loved and had a passion for, to teach, educate, empower and support children and families. I later started my own-non profit to educate underprivileged youth. My skills and proven ability to work with children and families have allowed me to develop and grow in many arenas to further advance the purpose of education. During the last three years I have tutored in math and english. I taught third grade reading for two years.
I am a firm believer that all children are capable of learning they just learn in different ways. My approach for teaching is more student-centered approach. I believe that if you do not understand the students learning style, you will not be successful in motivating learning. I have a high tolerance for children and adaptin ... read more

A teacher must care about people. It is not enough to have the knowledge of the material. You must be very aware of body language and read the group to determine if you need to restate the concept. A good teacher will ask a question and will not answer until a group discussion occurs. A good teacher ensures the group feels comfortable to think outside the box withou fear of embarrassment. Use of several medias in addition to course material is key to keep the attention of the group. However, again, none of this is effective if you do not have a genuine desire to see the knowledge you have of the material transferred to the individuals receiving the message.
