A Little Bit About Me...

There have been numerous studies showing that different types of learning exist, and it is my belief that each individual student needs to be taught through adaptive teaching methodologies. I believe that everyone is unique, and each student needs to develop their own style of learning. It is the job of the educator to discover those different styles and implement a teaching method that is most advantageous to the student.
Having earned a bachelor's degree in Theology and Apologetics with superior academic achievement,I have challenged myself academically, and developed excellent writing and argumentative skills. I have written extensive research papers, and successfully defeated many opponents in classroom debate. I served as a tutor for Homeland Park Elementary for one year during my college career.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is founded on being patient and intentional towards every learning student. I am very intentional about making sure that students feel comfortable expressing how they do not understand material so that I can provide resources and assistance to their specific needs. I also strive to find a healthy balance between tutor aid and student discovery. I believe that with the right guidance and instruction, students can discover a skill and apply it to many academic challenges. Specifically, I love helping students take their thoughts and create meaningful, clear and strong prose in order to convey their understanding of a text.
As a graduate from UNC with a degree in English, I have gained an in-depth understanding of the English language. Through this rigorous program, I was consistently expected to provide strongly written and grammatically accurate essays that proved ... read more

Having taught and tutored middle school to community college level students for more than seven years, I work to inspire them to be active learners. My BA in Mathematics and additional graduate studies in Mathematics Education serve to provide a rich understanding of this subject. Also, my seminary years afforded me ample opportunities through research papers, book reviews, journal entries, and essays to acquire good grammatical skills. I tutored at Pensacola Junior College, Tanya's Tutoring, and Sylvan Learning Center, along with other schools. Moreover, I taught adults Basic Skills Math at Delgado Community College and most recently at New Life Theological Seminary.

I really enjoy helping and teaching people. I realize that everyone learns in a different fashion and that each student needs a specifically tailored teaching method. I believe a student really learns the material when he/she understands the reasoning behind a solution. I am a very patient hardworking individual who will not stop until my tutee is 100% confident they are prepared for the test. I am currently unemployed and am available ASAP to help students prepare for finals.

Throughout my academic years, in the public school system and higher education, I excelled in mathematics. As a senior at Harding University High School in Charlotte, NC, I obtained a top score of 4 out of 5 on the Advanced Placement Calculus AB exam. This allowed me to bypass taking Calculus I as a freshman at N.C. State University where I majored in meteorology. Meteorology, a science that studies the dynamics of weather, requires complex mathematical knowledge. At the completion of my undergraduate meteorology curriculum, I received an A+ in Calculus II and III. In May, 2008, I graduated with a Bachelor's degree. For the past two years, I have been tutoring middle and high school students in math at two private schools in North Carolina.
My teaching technique strictly focuses on the task at hand mainly for proper concentration. I value and encourage student questions because it ... read more

I have been requested at serveral of the district schools because of the way I respond to being in the classroom and working with children of age grades and ages. I am very excited about being in the schools on a daily basis and plan to take things a step further and pursue a full time teaching position in the upcoming school through an accrediated university program.
