"Why ask someone when YOU can FIND the answer yourself?"

Hello! My name is Jason Griffin. I'm a native of Shreveport, Louisiana. Recently, I moved back to the area from Natchitoches,La. While in "Na-ka-tosh", I played Violin in the Symphony,once a Photographer for NSU's Current Sauce, Greek, a Police Officer for 7yrs, and most importantly, a Graduate of NSU. My long journey of Education has taught me to be patient, yet steadfast. In addition to my efficient short-cuts, I'm always aware that hard work is fail proof.
Shape Shifter.

Live, Love, and Beautify

Learning is the basis of what we know. What we know is the basis of who we are. Who we are is the basis of the impact we will have on the world. I love helping others to understand the unknown, and to overcome what may seem to be a hinderance. I have tutored children for six years, and look forward to another six years of helping them to open their level of thinking. I have worked with special tutorial programs through the state, I have worked with daycares that provide extra assistance to children with special educational needs, and I am always available to children in the neighborhood who need a little extra guidance with their school work.
I like to teach hands on and allow the students to experience the lessons like real life, this makes the learning process more memorable.

I teach in a variety of ways. I know that teachers generally teach one specific method, and not all students comprehend this one method that teachers teach. It's about what the student understands best and helping them utilize what is easiest for them to work with.
I tutor my classmates who were challenged by the courses that we were studying. Often times they could not afford paying tutoring prices at offered at school. I dislike seeing students struggle and continuously repeat courses and not improve. Classes cost finances and students are not refunded for courses they did not pass. I want to accomplish more than helping classmates succeed when I know there are many other students and children who could use help, guidance, and assistance with class subjects.

I focus on finding what works with individual children.

I began teaching in 2001 in Caddo Parish. I have taught Pre-K, Kindergarten, First Grade and Second Grade. I have also tutored kindergarten-4th grade students in my home for 10 years. I'm currently at Arthur Circle in Shreveport, La. I have two daughters who are 11 and 13, who are in the Gateway Program at Caddo Middle Magnet. I have worked hard with them on all areas of study since they were very young. I've taught my students and my daughters the best ways to study, how to comprehend what they are learning about, and I encourage them to always ask questions.

Real world experience with academic background here to help.

Upon leaving University I went into sales and marketing management for a couple of years. A career change occurred as I entered the realm of land surveying and mapping. I was an exemplary student athlete and attended university on multiple athletic and academic scholarships. I have been responsible for teaching over 80 employees either surveying, trigonometry, geometry or math and computation basics. I also headed up staffs of 10-70 employees while in my management role. I have a passion for teaching others but never wanted it to be my career. I truly believe that the world improves only through those who seek to improve and help others succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I can offer your company a wide range of experience. I have worked as a speech-language pathologist in two different Texas public school districts, as a home-school administrator, and as a core teacher in the private-school setting. I have taught middle-school language arts and mathematics. With my degree and experience in special needs and learning differences, I served as supervisor/teacher for a special needs program called the Link Lab at Poetry Community Christian School. The Link Lab also provided tutoring for students in the afternoons. I recently moved back to the Shreveport area where I grew up. Not desiring a full-time position in the school system, I would enjoy part-time work, especially in one-on-one learning settings.
Because of my degree in speech-language pathology, I realize that difficulties in learning often have to do with poor language development. My training ... read more

The major benefit of a one-on-one tutoring environment is that a student can be taught in the manner which best suits their personal learning style. I believe it is imperative to identify a student's preferred learning style and to adapt my teaching accordingly. When working with a student, I prefer to allow the student to work through a problem and discover the answers themselves, while I guide and instruct them, instead of merely showing them. While grades and test scores are obviously important, it is my main goal to increase a student's confidence in a subject. With confidence comes ease and familiarity, and an ability to apply knowledge critically. I hope that the skills I teach my students will aid them in all their endeavors.
As my degree shows, I have a very well-rounded academic background. My collective eighteen years of studying language has instilled in me a deep ... read more
