As a current senior at Pensacola Christian College, I have recieved a steller education in English, as well as Bible and Biblical Greek. The usefullness of understanding Biblical Greek and being able to study the Bible in its original languages cannot be overemphasized. This is where I would like to spend my tutoring time, although I will be willing to help in basic English, Writing, or Reading. The most effective teaching takes place whent he teacher presents the information clearly and then gives the student ample opportunity to put it into practice, with t

I love teaching. I earned my BA before I was old enough to vote. While my classmates were in his/her senior year, I was teaching.

I have enjoyed a successful career in sales for well over 20 years. In my sales career, I was involved with training of new and prospective employees. This involved showing them all aspects and functions of their jobs, along with utilizing exceptional communication skills, both verbally, and in writing. I was also involved in the hiring and firing process at times. I have learned that, with persistence, perserverence, the desire to learn, that just about anyone can achieve what they want in life. It makes me proud when a new employee strives for excellence, and I hope that they always continue growing, both personally and professionally. It is a priviledge to be a part of that experience. I teach each person on an individual level. There are several reasons behind this. Some of them are: people have different strengths and weaknesses, people learn at quicker/slower r

My first teaching experience was as a high school senior where I was given the opportunity to teach a small group of 5th graders as part of the Missouri A+ program.

I spent three semesters as the academic chair for my fraternity enforcing study hours for fraternity brothers with lower GPA’s; tutoring students in algebra, calculus, physics, and computer science, among other fields. I have also had five years of experience in Latin up to the college level with one year of Japanese.

As a teacher, it is my job to give meaning to and answer the questions, "When am I ever going to use this?" & "Why do I need to know this?" I will attempt to do this on an individual level. As a teacher it is my job to encourage individuals towards the realization of their dreams. It is my job to give them the tools that will be required to attain those dreams and to offer encouragement, enthusiasm, and motivation.
