My teaching style embraces a strength based approach. I start with what my students already know and build from there. I find that positive reinforcement of previously acquired skills encourages further learning. I also use creative everyday examples to help students understand topics better. For example, to help a child enhance their reading and math skills I’ll use a cooking activity. They read the instructions, use the dictionary to look up words they do not understand, and help complete the recipe with measuring, timing, etc. My style allows students to enhance both their knowledge and self-esteem. I began tutoring others in different academic subjects while at Forest Hills High School. During my time at Dartmouth College I assisted others--primarily with writing assistance. Majoring in Education & African-American Studies, I endeavored to help others take pride in learning. I he

It is my pleasure to be of assistance to any student in any subject matter. I love being able to help others in subjects where they are weak. I have a pretty flexible and open schedule and I am readily available to assist your child. I am very understanding, easy to get along with, and persistent when it comes to working with students. I believe that students learn best by doing, therefore there will be a lot of independent thinking and problem solving. My goal is to produce a more confident, educated, and self-sufficient student. As a first generation college student, I know the importance and significance education plays in one's life. I just recently earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, which has allowed me to utilize those skills and apply them to real-world problems. I am currently pursuing my masters of science in Computer Science as well. Through many research

I have a great deal of experience in education. I am a North Carolina certified teacher K-6. I have taught Kindergarten, assessed for National Boards, and I have tutored various subjects for Guilford County Schools for the last five years. I have almost completed my Masters in early chilhood education. I have not gotten around to finishing it as of yet, but I am very close...only a few credits short. I used several different approaches to teaching since all children learn in different ways. I believe in cooperative learning, hands on experiences, and independent practice as well. Teaching is my passion. I love making a difference in a child's life.

As a motivated person, I attended UNCG as an undergraduate and graduate student while working full time. I have received both a BS and MS in Biochemistry. During my undergraduate years, I worked as an assistant in multiple lab courses. Throughout graduate school, I have taught Gen. Chem. Lab courses, which are taught in a lecture and lab setting. In both 2008 and 2009, I received awards for Outstanding Teaching based on student evaluations. Throughout my 7 years in the Chemistry Department, I have written multiple research papers and a Master’s level thesis. These numerous papers have helped me to develop my writing style and improve my grammatical skills. I have also privately tutored K-8 students in English, math, and science. I have always believed that a good teacher is the best tool to help students learn. Having personal experience with learning disabilities, I do not think

I begin by observing the person. In which areas are they confident and strong? In which areas are they fearful and using avoidance? I then find a bridge from their place of confidence to their place of fear and coax them across until they are happily skipping across. This may take some time, but I believe in quality over quantity when it comes to completed work. I want to leave the person with the ability to complete it well and on their own the next time. Speed can be developed after mastery. Education has been a priority for me my whole life. I first began tutoring college students in Math while still in college and have always been willing to teach or train anyone who needed it in my personal life or in a professional capacity. My formal education consists of a BS in Mathematics with a Concentration in Physics and a Certificate in Drafting Technology. My informal education is b

I enjoy tutoring and working with students. I feel that I am a friendly, patient, and calm tutor. I put students at ease, help them to feel comfortable, and let them know they can ask questions. I can explain things in an informal, easy-to-understand manner, which is especially helpful for students who have trouble in school. My flexible teaching style helps me adapt and customize tutoring sessions to each individual student because learning is not one size fits all. I like to find things that the student understands and/or can relate to in order to explain and explore difficult concepts and topics. In addition to tutoring during high school, I have worked at an independent local tutoring company and at the local Huntington Learning Center since I've graduated college. As an English major, avid reader, and proficient writer, my specialty is English and SAT Verbal, but I can also tutor in

I love working with students of all ages. I have worked with children ranging from 2 years old to 10 years old while lead teacher at a day care. I understand that each student is unique and deserves a personalized learning experience. I want to provide students with new knowledge, a better understanding of what is being taught in school, and the motivation to learn. I assess each student's performance individually and offer help designed towards their learning styles. I am a paraprofessional tutor dedicated to providing quality tutoring, homework help, and other academic assistance. My goal is to guide and support students while motivating them towards a love for learning. I have earned two associate degrees, AS in Medical Office Administration and AS in Early Childhood Education. I also have my Early Childhood credentials I and II.

I myself am a visual and auditory learner, so I am very open to all types of teaching styles. I find that people learn better when several avenues of learning are available for a subject. Also repetition is a very important device for making knowledge permanent. I like to bring a fun and light atmosphere to learning. While working on my undergrad I was given the opportunity to be a teaching assistant for a freshman college level film theory and design class. During this opportunity I was responsible for grading the daily work of our students, as well as being a resource for the students design projects. I taught lectures based on film theory and design, as well as specific pieces of film.

Having spent 20 years in the Information Technology field, I recently made the decision to change careers to pursue a life-long dream of teaching. I began college as an education major, but due to life circumstances, changed direction and entered the IT field. As programming is math and logic oriented, teaching math is a natural extension of my skills and experience. I am currently working towards gaining licensure as a middle school math teacher. I enjoy working with children of any age and have tutored friends of my own child. Children have many different learning styles, and as an educator it is my job to discern which approach works best for each individual. In teaching math, I believe that all children learn best with a hands-on approach. Providing real-world examples and manipulatives that children can pick up, touch, and move around should be used at all levels – from kinder

I enjoy helping students reach their potentials as learners. I try to connect with the students I teach and cater to their individual learning styles. Working with an interested, capable educator can dramatically improve a student's performance. My teaching style is relaxed, patient and insightful. It is my goal to help students improve themselves by mentoring them in language arts and English and in improving their organization and study skills. While in college I spent a year working as a writing tutor at my school's university writing center. After graduating cum laude with a degree in communications (and with a minor in English), I taught English as a foreign language for a year and a half in Chad, Africa, as a US Peace Corps volunteer. Following that, I substitute taught for a year at Saints Peter and Paul High School in Easton, Maryland(2006-2007). For the 2007-2008 school yea
