Learning is not optional. Remember...

My teaching style varies from one student to another depending on their learning style and strategies. However, in most cases, I tend to fall under the natural and communicative teaching approach for most of the subject matters.
I have been teaching and tutoring a diverse student population for almost 9 years. So far, it has been a mutually interesting experience for both parts, students and teacher. I started my teaching career through instructing languages, mainly French, my native language, for the one and a half year, and then I included different sorts of Math as well till the present. I have in possession a Bachelor's degree, two Master's degrees and an ongoing PhD. My main field stream is teaching methods and theories of languages, multiple subjects and special need instruction as well. During my teaching and tutoring experience, I have had the chance to explore diff ... read more

My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : I've had three students who were diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and two students whom I felt were ADD/ADHD. Its very difficult for students with this diagnosis to concentrate in class let alone in an environment with too much stimulation. Because of this, I have experienced tutoring such students and understand the importance of stimulating them with motivational educational games as well as giving lots of breaks to rest their minds.

I have taught elementary children, grades kindergarten through the fifth grade for three years overseas. I have also tutored for over four years. I was the head kindergarten teacher, phonics and reading teacher. I oversaw the kindergarten teachers, reviewed curriculum for each semester and school events. The subjects I have experience teaching are but not limited to phonics, reading, math, vocabulary and social studies.
I am a very outgoing and energetic but patient teacher. I will often push my student beyond what they believe they are capable of. For example, my lowest kindergarten class by the end of the fourth semester was reading second grade level books and worksheets. My second grade level students were reading by the end of the second semester fourth to sixth grade reads. I will never encourage failure out of a student nor will I tolerate the child to feel they are not smar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I absolutely love working with children in an attempt to help them to realize the value of a quality education. I have worked with children with psychological and behavioral issues and have helped them to thrive in an educational setting and to strive towards changing their own circumstances to create brighter futures for themselves. I am extremely creative and am always trying to find ways to help the children learn through experience and action, instead of rote memorization. I think of myself as having a lot of patience and compassion for individuals needs for a variety of teaching styles.
I am a graduate of the University of West Georgia Psychology department, with a focus on humanistic and holistic ideology. In January I began my second Bachelor's program in Studio art, and eventually plan to pursue a Master's degree in Art Therapy. I have experience working with teenagers in a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I began tutoring in the third grade after I was accepted into Independent Study Classes. I was selected to tutor my fellow classmates in spelling and reading comprehension. My volunteer tutoring continued throughout my grade school years and into my higher education career. Once in college, I was hired as a mental health worker and tutor to austitic children. I have always excelled in reading comprehension, writing skills, and English communication classes. These skills have aided me in my pursuit of higher education with a focus on the Psychology and Sociology disciplines. The duties for my current position at the Medical College of Georgia Cancer Center include reading new research studies, writing descript summaries of new research studies, and preparing various documents to submit before the Institutional Review Board of the Medical College of Georgia.

I am a graduate of Eckerd College, in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I received a B.A. with Honors in History and Theater. As a result of my academic achievement, I was awarded the Excellence in Historical Scholarship Award and was a finalist for the 2007 Writing Excellence Award.

Boy's Academy. As a teacher, I also tutored students after school in writing and reading.
As a teacher I witnessed first hand the challenges students face in public schools. Due to the importance placed on standardized tests, students are often taught with a single focus in mind. Often times the different needs and learning styles of students are overlooked or ignored completely. I, on the other hand, prefe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My style of teaching is always dependent upon my students and where they are congnitively. Teaching is always keeping the best academic interest of your students in mind. Therefore, I almost, always try to provide students with a pre test to see where they are, and I utilize that data to plan for instruction. Data collected allows me to prepare my lessons with the appropriate methods of differentiation for my students.I also like to provide my students with a learning style assessment. My goal is to be able to show students that they are not to become comfortable where they are because there is always room and potential for growth as far as their academic abilities are concerned.
As an educator,I enjoy embrassing teachable moments.I began my teaching career with Severely and Profoundly Intellectually Disabled children, who ranged in grade level from K-5. I was then granted the oppo ... read more

I enjoy working with children of all ages. I believe that because each child is different, they learn differently, and therefore I must find a teaching style that helps that particular study achieve their maximum ability. I understand that some students are more visual while others may be auditory. I consider myself to be patient and understanding, and I believe that all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate tools to assist them. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.
As a recent college graduate, I was very determined to be one of the first college graduates in my family. I earned my BS in Psychology with a minor in Sociology in three years due to my determination, focus, and dedication. I am currently persuing my Masters in Education. I have also learned extensive grammatical and syntax skills due to a large number of research pa ... read more

I have expertise in teaching reading and math from infancy to grade 8. I have successfully tutored college math and English. I have taught 6th, 1st, 4th and 2nd grade in SC and GA public schools. I have taught in a private school specializing in students with learning disabilities, dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, and autism. In 1999, I developed and operated my own private tutoring service in Charleston, SC. My students consistently meet or exceed standardized test (CRCT) expectations. I'm quite proud of the performances of my students every year! Prior to teaching, I was a nanny so I have never had a job that didn't involve children.
If students don't learn the way we teach, we must learn to teach the way they learn. I believe in Orton-Gillingham's philosophy of teaching everything using as many senses simultaneously as possible. Thus, I introduce and teach using manipulatives so lessons are ... read more

I believe in consistency in my approach to classroom management, behavior support, and with instruction. Direct Instruction is proven by research to help students who are significantly behind in academic performance. I like to incorporate modeling, giving examples, engaging students, and guided practice before independent work. These strategies enhance student performance. It is also essential to continually check for understanding throughout the lesson. Repetition is pertinent. Without repetition there is no retention. I try to make sure the child is confident about his own ability to achieve or behave. Without motivation and esteem, there is no success.
I enjoy working with youth. I consider myself to be an advocate for the rights and needs of youth. My bachelor's and master's degrees are both in special education. I went into the field of special education with the h ... read more
