I am a recent graduate from Nevada State College with a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education with a TESL endorsement. Through my time in college, I have completed various volunteer work within the Clark County School District as well as my student teaching. I am known for my attention to detail in reading and writing. I have worked as the vice president of my college's newspaper and have been nominated and have won awards in Journalism, Poetry and Short Stories. My degree is for elementary but I am also interested in working with older students as well as long as it's not college mathematics. When it comes to my teaching style, I prefer to meet a student and take the first meetings to really get to know them, their learning styles and find out what goals we need to realistically set. After I have a goal in place I then like to work backwards and fill in the blanks of how we are g

My goal as a teacher is to help children appreciate learning and have fun while doing. I beleive that we all learn in different ways and a person should use a learning strategy that works best for them. I am available to help your child succeed academically. I have had much experience working with children of all ages in the Education Field as a Primary Teacher for Head Start and CIS after school program. I know that this is what I have been called to do and I enjoy doing. I have worked in the Education field for 9 years. I started off as a substitute teacher and later became a "permanent substitute" in 2002. In this same year, I also became a class monitor for Psycho-Edu with the Johnson Co. School System. These jobs both required me to help teach elementary students in every subject.

I feel that all children can learn if they are given the chance and opportunity. Today’s children are faced with many pressures (peer, parental, social, etc) which can hinder and/or deter their academic chances. I am patient and I am able to make your child feel comfortable. I recognize that every child is different and their learning and information processing styles are different. I recognize and respect that and will not try to institute a “cookie cutter” style or “one-size-fits-all” style of teaching. I have always loved to read and have always had a passion for reading. As a child, I was taught that good reading skills were keys to furthering my knowledge base as well as preparing me for the future. I have written several essays and have recently self- published my first novel. I am available to tutor in the areas of basic reading and writing. I am available for all ages

As a graduate from the Early Childhood Education program from Georgia Southern University, I have valuable experience with helping students achieve academically. I have a bachelor’s degree in education, along with a teaching certificate. During my program of study, I worked with every grade level, ranging from PreK-5th. I have experience working with diverse learners; therefore, applying my knowledge of differentiated instruction within my lessons. During my program of study, I taught the following subject areas to students: math, reading, language arts, science, and social studies. I also have experience with instructing guided reading groups with the younger grade levels. I am a firm believer that every child can learn in their own way and at their own pace. I incorporate differentiated instruction within each of my lessons to reach every type of learner. I believe that it is importan

No two people learn alike. Everyone has their own learning style and in my years of teaching, I was able to adapt my teaching style to the style of learning that was sufficient for my students. I have worked with students from the elementary level to the high school level and get my blessings from former students that still come up to me and say "thank you" or just come by to visit. It is my belief that everyone is capable of learning and deserve the opportunity to obtain an education. As a child growing up, I always knew I wanted to be in a position to help others particularly young children achieved their goals to become productive educated citizens. I worked hard and earned my bachelor degree in Early Childhood Education and have 18 years of experience teaching in the public school system. Over a course of years, I have tutored students privately and once was employed with the Sylvan

I have a fun learning approach that I use. I use the latest technology to satisfy the technological students in which I help. When in question, I discover what ways are more convience for a child to learn and add to that. I am in the process of earning my Master's Degree in Public Administration. I have completed my Bachelor's in General Studies and have two Associate's; One is Social Work and one Education. I have been in the classroom for the last 3 years and have tutor for the last five.

As a substitute teacher I never really was able to develop a specific style of teaching. Each teacher had their own way of doing things and each class was different. However, I feel the best way for anyone to learn be it adult or student is to let the student take the lead. I would give them the instructions as to what needs to be accomplished, let them do the work, and be there for any questions or assistance that would be needed. I earned a bachelors in management in 1994 after earning 2 Associate Degrees; one in Paralegal Studies and the other in Legal Secretarial Studies. The classes I had to take to earn these degrees prepared me to be able to become a substitute teacher at the elementary school level (K-5). My experience and training has allowed me to become very good in writing correspondence and thus my knowledge in the correct use of grammar, spelling and vocabulary will

I love everything about the teaching profession. I feel it is a very rewarding occupation. I believe that each and every student has the ability to learn, but not all students learn everything in the same way. It is my job as a teacher to find as way that works best for each student. I use the scaffolding method when teaching. I like to begin by giving the students a lot of guidance and slowly releasing them to learn the subject at their own pace. As an educator, my main goal is to teach at a level each and every student will understand. I will challenge the students to be the best they can be. As a Georgia Southwestern State University Graduate, I was able to obtain many opportunities to work with students of different grade levels and developmental levels. I have a BA in Early Childhood Education and have experience with many different grade levels. I had the opportunity to work with a

I enjoy teaching children of all ages. Learning can be fun as long as you can relate it to something that the child is interested in. Gaining the knowledge that is taught in middle school and high school only helps the child to further education. I believe learning should be fun and enjoyable. I am very patient and take pride in producing positive results. I obtained my Associates of Science Degree in Biology at Macon State College completing courses in Anatomy and Physiology, Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Calculus. I then completed my Bachelors of Science Degree in Biology at Valdosta State University. At Valdosta State University, I completed courses such Microbiology, Molecular Genetics of DNA, Animal Physiology, Protein Biochemistry, and Statistics. With these courses came laboratory experience which has allowed me to strengthen my skills in writing laboratory reports. I

I enjoy tutoring. I obtain gratification through helping students to grasp concepts that seem vague or out of reach. I always keep a professional relationship with people. I like to make people feel welcome to ask questions. It is important to respond to students in a manner that encourages them to ask questions. I also ask questions to obtain feedback on how to approach problems, build problem solving skills, and resolve issues that limit their understanding of subject matter. My ultimate goal is to build a students character so that s/he will have the confidence to strive in reaching for higher education. While I was in high school, I tutored all subjects in math except Calculus. In college, I tutored students in Calculus, general engineering courses, and I was an assigned mentor to three students.

I have been driven to excel in college and in my career in logistics. I've graduated from two of the top universities in the US, and retired from the USAF as a Major. I'm also a graduate of Air War College. I've traveled the world as an instructor navigator and defense contractor, learning about many cultures and religions. In addition to Spanish, I also speak Turkish. I also owned my own logistics services business, winning a contract with the USAF. My technique in teaching navigation was to expose the student to the underlying physics of dead reaconing and celestial object movement. Then we would put the theory into practice in the air. I strove to always give positive feedback and encouragement.

I currently work as a financial analyst utilizing many quantitative skills such as statistics, forecasting and data analysis. I am working towards a CMA (Certified Management Accountant) certification, which eventually will help me progress into a managerial position. I use on daily basis many software applications such as Excel, Access, Word, PowerPoint and Outlook. I first had an exposure to tutoring while serving as a graduate teaching assistant in Western Carolina University back in 2002. My job was to provide tutoring to undergraduates mainly in the fields of finance, introductory statistics and French. I also participated in scoring and proctoring accounting and finance exams. I hold two masters degrees: one in business administration and the other recently obtained in accounting and financial management.

My first tutoring experience occurred during my attendance at South Georgia College (SGC). At SGC I was a tutor for Student Support Services and was responsible for providing academic tutoring to my peers in various academic subjects. After graduating from SGC, I continued to provide tutoring services with the Sylvan Learning Center and the America Reads program at the University of Georgia. Under the provisions outlined by these programs, I provided academic tutoring in reading and mathematics to students in elementary, middle, and high school. As a soon-to-be graduate student from the University of Georgia’s School Counseling program, I have received more than adequate training and have acquired years of experience that I feel will help me fulfill my life long aspiration of helping children reach their full academic potentials. As an educator, I recognize the importance of teaching
