I taught basic writing and first-year composition for 19 and one half year at a two-year college in the University System of Georgia. I prepared students to pass a standardized essay exam and to pass a computerized COMPASS Writing Skills Exam, which is an grammar editing test. My success rate ranged between 72% to 100%. The average range was approximately 80%.

As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subjects. After earning my bachelor degree in biology, I worked as an educator at the South Carolina Aquarium where I taught interactive classes to kindergarten, middle school and high school students. I also worked for the Leadership Development Program at the College of Charleston where I co-facilitated student leadership classes. And most recently, while in graduate school I held a teaching assistant position and tutored freshman and sophomore college students in topics related to international development.
My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require ... read more

I have over 13 years of tutor experience working with young and adult students. I have a BA in Criminal Justice this degree has helped me relate and better assist my students during our tutoring sessions. I enjoy reading and writing.

I have also tutored young and adult students in preparation for exams like the PSAT SAT, ACT, GED, GRE and GMAT.
I enjoy teaching students of all ages.I do not have a set teaching style. I use several methods during our tutoring sessions.

I help the student identify this method and we work together to expand the student’s knowledge in the given subject. My students inspire and motivate me and I encourage them to con ... read more

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

When I was in 7th and 8th grade I participated in America Reads where I helped teach elementary children how to read. In college I assisted with my church youth group and led classes approximately once a month for two years. During 2010 I volunteered with a Kindergarten class. I assisted the students with in-class assignments in writing and math. I hold a bachelors degree in accounting with a minor in vocal performance. I also studied German during this time. I have completed 17.5 semester hours towards a masters degree in liberal studies with a focus in international business and German. I am currently working on my MBA and plan to complete it in December of 2012.
I am very flexible in my teaching style and have helped students who learn in very different ways. While I was working with the Reading by the River program I worked with four different students each of which learned in ... read more

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.

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn.
With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals an ... read more

My teaching style consists of working with students in the affective and objective domains to make learning personal and enjoyable. That is, I address the student’s confidence and capabilities by establishing rapport and assessing his/her skills level through specific tasks or assessments. In the initial sessions, I determine the student’s interests through simple five-minute inventories or “getting-to-know-you” activities. With regards to academics, the study time always includes explanation or review of the focus skill (lesson) or task; my demonstrating the skill by completing a related task; a shared activity wherein the student and I complete a similar activity together; and, finally, the student’s practice of the skill in an independent activity. I end by giving the student feedback. My goal is to have the student become relaxed, capable, and proud of knowing.

My approach to tutoring is that all students want to learn, some just need more of a push that others. It is my job to make the subject more relevant, interesting and understandable for them. I assume everyone is capable of learning the material and I am very skilled at differentiating my instruction to suit the needs of all levels of learners. I believe parents have a hard enough job, and it is sometimes best for someone else to tackle school subjects where the students are not thriving. Students often benefit from a fresh perspective and if their self-esteem is at all suffering from difficulties at school, having a new person involved in their lives can help them feel more confident again.

I have come to understand that different people have different ways of learning. I try to utilize any method that I think may be helpful to the student. Whether the student is a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner, I have the patience and willingness to provide a way for them to embrace the concepts in the best way I can. I value and understand the benefit of an education, and I can only hope that I am able to instill that belief in other students.
I have always had a strong passion and natural inclination toward the fields of math and science. In high school, I was a member of our Varsity Math Team and was named the Outstanding Science Student for the Class of 2006. This love and knowledge of science was further developed in my college career as I worked toward earning my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry with a minor in Biology. Being a science major, I was also required to t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a lifelong academician, writer, and researcher, I have embraced the experiences and general culture of that of an educator. In addition to my undergraduate degree in Education, I have earned an MS and Ph. D. in the Parapsychic Sciences and Philosophy. Along with my varied classroom instructional experiences, I have had the good fortune of writing and publishing a number of articles and books that reflect my areas of study and interests. I feel confident that this background would serve as an invaluable resource for your organization.
Education for me is second nature. My teaching practice encompasses many different techniques to address many different learning styles. I constantly strive to effectively combine traditional lecture-style approaches with new, fresh, dynamic presentations which bring to life the sometimes dull, gray subject matter that students have to deal wit ... read more
