Reading Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Jarvisburg, NC

I am a 2011 graduate of the United States Naval Academy with a Bachelors of Science in Political Science. During my education, I was exposed to many subjects, ranging from Electrical Engineering to European Literature. The most important things I learned during my time there were time management and study skills, because without a strong foundation in those subjects, one can not excel in others. I am a very patient person, and I like to help. It may take a session or two, but I'm confident that I can adapt my teaching style to meet your needs.

While attending Mary Baldwin College, I not only majored in English, but also worked as a tutor in the school writing center. As a tutor, I worked with students (freshmen-seniors) on basic editorial skills, correct punctuation, and the overall writing process (brainstorming, rough drafts, final copies, etc). However, my experience does not only tend to the college level - I have also worked with children in middle and high school for SAT prep, reading comprehension, and grammar. I usually like to meet with a person and understand their basic needs, before I decide which was to approach their tutoring - not every person learns the same way, so I approach each situation differently.

I have been an AB student my whole life, and I was in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program in high school. I consistently help my siblings with their homework (ages 5, 13, and 16), and have worked with after-school tutoring programs with friends. I tutor best with elementary/middle schoolers in math and English/reading/writing, but can help with any subject the student needs. very interactive and entertaining

Teaching is not only my passion but my calling. Having had the opportunity to teach both fifth and second grade specializing in reading I have learned very helpful techniques. I have also taught inclusion which has definitely strengthened my ability to differentiate instruction and to teach across the curriculum . I have also had the opportunity of teaching kindergarten for the past nine summers for a non profit organization; Horizons of Hampton roads. I believe every child can learn and every student can excel.

I have a relaxed, stress-free teaching style, while staying on task and topic. I make sure the pupils really understand the material by breaking things down to the basics, and reviewing the foundations. After reviewing and application of the concepts, I have my students switch roles and "teach" me the material. I believe if you can explain the material to someone else, you really understand it. I double-majored in biology in chemistry in undergrad, so the field of science and medicine is my first love and my strength. I have also received a Masters of Public Health Degree in Epidemiology, and have since completed my 2nd year of medical school. I have always had a strong affinity for math and english as well. I have a published thesis paper that was constructed and presented as required for my masters curriculum. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and have tutored elementary

As a Sociology major and an accounting student at Longwood University, I was able to gain an understanding in a variety of areas from classes in business, sociology, anthropology, psychology, english, math and the sciences. I have excelled in writing financial as well as literary reports. I tutored many of my classmates while I was in college and was afforded the opportunity to substitute teach sociology when my professors were out due to illness or personal reasons. In my career I have trained many of my employees and have created new departments by implementing policies and procedures. I have the unusual ability to teach in a way that each individual can relate to and on a level that they can each understand. I feel that all people can learn given the right circumstances and a teacher that understands the way that person is able to learn. Learning is a process and I approach teach

While at Virginia Tech, I dedicated much of my time to volunteering. Here I fell in love with serving others. During this time, one of the programs I volunteered for was an after-school teaching program. Here, I tutored elementary-aged children in english, science, and math. I enjoy helping others learn! I have two younger sisters myself, and I am currently coaching the eight year old's softball team. From this experience, I have learned to have patience and creativity when it comes to teaching. I break things down so they become fun and informative.

I have taught Spanish I-V to high school students at several Christian schools. I have tutored students at all levels of Spanish, including Advanced Placement courses. My last employer was Milanguages Corporation, an institution dedicated to instructing foreign languages to Navy Seals and their supportive staff members. I love teaching Spanish. My forte is Spanish grammar. I am an excellent Spanish instructor. I was recently selected by Milanguages, Corp. to teach Spanish to Navy Seals. I scored "superior" in their entrance exams. I am very proficient in Spanish grammar. I have been teaching Spanish for over eight years. My Spanish accent is very neutral. Even Spanish speaking natives have a difficult time determining where I am from. I was born and raised in Cuba. I completed my high school education at George Washington High School in New York City. I graduated from college, earning a

I have over 3 years of teaching experience with Norfolk Public Schools as a Reading Teacher teaching regular education and special education students. I have over 1 year of tutoring experience working with students in small groups and on a one-on-one basis. My teaching style includes utilizing tactile kinesthetic activities allowing students to learn using a hands-on experience while learning. Using manipulatives is also a tool used in my teaching process where students are able to sit at their seat, yet use fun arts and crafts so they can have a visual with their activities.

As a special educator, I am blessed to have the experience of working with both students with disabilites and students without dsabilites. I am currently a co-teacher working with English 12 students. This opportunity has given me a lot of skills in the area of English and I have also been allowed to teach a supplemental class to assist my students in further understanding the concepts and skills learned in their English class. In addition, I have taught elementary math to Algebra and I have also assisted my students with history subjects as well. Not to mention, my extensive experience with writing papers in many areas of study. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and working with all children. I am a true believer that all children learn differently. I like to engage my students in any way necessary. I am very flexible to the many different learning styles and I am willing to do what it takes

Over the past five years I have worked as a Teacher/Instructor both the the legal field and in the public school setting with students diagnosed as ED and LD as well as being displaced from the normal public school setting. Even though my academic degrees are in the legal field I have stayed current in areas of Reading and Math from Basic Algebra to Geometry. I believe that a student who lacks the basic fundamental skills in reading and mathematics will struggle to stay focused in class and continually be disruptive and ultimately stop attending school. My teaching style is consistently accommodating especially to these types of students. I like to show students that I am there for them and there isn't anything through my patience and sincerity they cannot learn.

For the past ten years, I have been teaching High School English. I have taught grades 9-12 in Literature, Composition and Standards of Learning in preparation for the state exams. I have taught inclusion classes involving students with numerous learning styles and have always met and exceeded the expectations of their parents. I am a very motivating person and tend to use humor as a method of teaching. I teach to and with the child and never down to him/her. I break large components into their simplest forms so that a child learns to take things one step at a time and not feel overwhelmed. I make the learning relevant to what the child is interested in or knows about so that he/she can be more engaged in the learning process. We set the goal-a reasonable one yet with high expectations and together we achieve it.

I am a very patient person that believes in sticking with something until the student fully understands it. It may take a variety of techniques, rephrasing or working through examples, but I believe if you are dedicated there is nothing you cannot learn as a student. I graduated from Union College in June of 2008 with a BS in Biology. Due to hard work and dedication, I received my BS in three years instead of four. I have been substitute teaching for almost a year for many different grade levels. As of recently, I have been tutoring students in mathematics.

I am a very patient person. I tutored special needs students in the summer in a variety of subjects. I also taught piano lessons to several students of my own while attending school. While I was in college I was the chemistry lab assistant and lab tutor. I set-up and conducted the labs the teacher had planned, and I helped the students with their homework. As a summa cum luade graduate with a B.A in nursing, I strive for a high level of excellence in myself, and I really enjoy helping others reach their potential as well. I absoultely love teaching children, and I have alot of patience. Every person has their own way of learning, and I strive my hardest to figure out what way that is in each of my students. I am a very visual and hands on learner, but I have the ability to adapt my teaching method. I think it is extremely important to be very possitive and celebrate even the smal
