My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I have taught reading in grades 6-8.

Student centered instruction is the approach I use in my instruction. That means that the student's needs and learning style direct the way the information will be delivered and activities that will guide the learning. Students learn best by doing, so I only lecture for small amounts of time.
I have taught for 12 years in both a private and public school in Greenville, SC. I am currently teaching at Anderson University but in the classroom and on-line. In grades 7-12 I have taught English literature and writing as well as drama courses. At Anderson University I teach English 101, 102, and 205.

I received a double major in English and Religion at Presbyterian College. I tutored for three years at Thornwell home for children. I have one year experience working specifically with K5-5th grade. I have two years experience working with multi-grade groups. I am proficient in English as well as moderate in Science and Math, with History being my weakest subject.
I prefer one-on-one teaching. I am a kinesthetic learner but I'm familiar with all learning styles and can manage to teach any.

I love working with all age groups. I have three younger siblings that I have helped tutor through all levels of their educations. I have also tutored on a college level while in attendance at Presbyterian College. I am very patient, easy-going, and considerate. I emphasize the personal nature of the teacher-learner relationship. I teach by asking questions, exploring options with learners, and focusing on learner responsibility, independence, and initiative. I like to push my students to their fullest potential and encourage them to take unique approaches to their studies.
As a liberal arts college graduate, I was educated in multiple subjects, with a focus on the importance of integrating curriculum. I have earned two bachelor degrees, one in Visual Arts and the other in English with Academic Honors. Being an English major, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writi ... read more

Prior to college, I was chosen to enroll in a course that helps those desiring to work in education or any filed working with young people. Also, I worked as a Substitute teacher and Paraprofessional Teacher for a special needs classroom over the course of a school year; which include the areas of reading, mathematics, science, and language arts.

Lastly, I am employed (currently) as a Resident Assistant, where I get to oversee and mentor approximately 70 girl residents.

I am very patient and humble young lady. No child is the same as another, so therefore; they are unique in their very own way. I believe that every child can succeed, but they just need to be instructed in the right direction. I can provide that direction because I will be their compass to the world of understanding, knowledge, and discovery. Learning should be fun and exciting, but not tedious and boring.My students will be outgoing and will be the future lawyers, doctors, firefighters, and the best teachers.
I believe everyone has a gift from God. My gift is working with children, it brings joy and peace to my heart.I have a passion for working with children who really can not help themselves because they are either lost, not motivated, or scared.I just want to be an inspiration in their lives.

I have ten years of experience working with all ages of children in an educational setting, including children with special needs. While I am most comfortable with mathematics and language arts, I am qualified to teach all core subject areas. I began my teaching career with a student teaching position in a seventh grade math class. I later became an eighth grade algebra and reading teacher. I also taught pre-k and kindergarten for several years. In addition to holding a Masters of Education in elementary education, I also have a B.A. in mathematics and economics with a minor in British literature. I have certifications in elementary education and Montessori early childhood education.
I believe children construct their own knowledge of the world around them. They need to be active participants in their educational process rather than passive recipients. I also believe that l ... read more

From there I decided to pursue my graduate education and took a scholarship in the althetic department at the University of Arkansas where I became an academic advisor for the football team for 4 years. In the summers during my graduate career I worked for Sylvan Learning centers. I began as an English teacher and filled in on Math when they were short handed.
