Over the Top (and not too expensive)

1993 B.S. Texas Womans University Elementary Education 2008 M.A. University of Phoenix Curriculum and Instruction 1994 Teaching Certificate State of Texas (Lifetime) I have been teaching for the last 19 years. I have taught everything from 1st to 8th grade. My favorite subject to teach is Math. My students (85%-90%) would usually always perform end of the year State Test and on any test that showed grade equivalency they usually performed one to two years ahead of their grade.
My teaching style has always been about quality. I know that whatever I teach today, will last forever with my students. So if I don't teach, they wouldn't learn anything and I never wanted anyone to ever say "She didn't teach us anything while we were in her class." I also know that I have a job to come to every day and so do the students. I want to want to come to work and I want my students to ... read more

With the proper support, you can do anything!

Individualized
In addition to tutoring, I manage a non-profit operation that specializes in helping pregnant mothers and their partners acquire a GED. I am uniquely experienced to prepare you for your GED, because I received a GED myself. I didn't finish high school and decided to get my GED instead. I started taking classes at the local community college and from there I have achieved both a Bachelor's Degree in Education and a Master's Degree in Business Administration. Getting a GED is a great and practical option for many people and a major step stone to success. I have all of the materials and practice tests to help you prepare and pass the GED test. I will be with you every step of the way to make preparing for the GED exam less intimidating and ensure your success. If I can do it, so can you!

Common Sense Teacher using Real World Strategies

I have 12 years of teaching experience in grades 2-5. This is my first year out of the classroom, therefore I am very knowledgeable about the changing and increased expectations that your child is facing. Each of us are blessed with a special talent and mine is teaching. I am very passionate about education and have been very successful teaching children the skills and strategies necessary to succeed in all of their core subjects.
I feel that a child needs to feel comfortable to learn. I will create a connection with your child to make him feel very comfortable and secure to increase interaction and confidence, which will lead to success. I also feel it is important to make learning relevant to my students by using real life examples. Children want to know why they need to learn certain things and I will show them how their knowledge is essential to being successful in life.

A Little Bit About Me...

This is my second time tutoring and my first time was a great experience. It was stressful a first but after I formed a bond with those I tutored, everything else was simple. In high school, Math as never my strongest subjects, and it still isn't unless its Elementary Math. I had to take ALGEBA 1 three times! Any History subject and Language Arts is my strongest areas. I love History.

Experienced teacher ready to help you learn to love learning

I have been teaching for 5 years. I have experience in 2nd through 4th grade. I am open to tutoring everywhere from kinder to 5th. I love math and reading. I've taught in all types of areas from Wichita Falls to Irving, and currently I'm teaching in Decatur. I will work hard to approach learning in new ways instead of the traditional learning classroom.
I believe in working collaboratively with each other. Basing lessons on things that you love will will help you see the real life connections and importance of education. If we don't get it one way we will approach it another. Never giving up is my teaching style. If the first way we go about a learning objective doesn't work it will be my job to find a new way to teach it.

I am 17 years old and I love working with and teaching kids. I have experience with teaching a bible group for second graders at my church, and I know how to get your child excited about the many things they can accomplish by learning. I am a senior in high school and have a GPA of 3.7. I have taken AP classes and 4 years of Spanish. My best academic subjects are math, science, and reading. I am skilled in music and am taking a college level music theory class, so if you're looking to learn or have your child learn either piano, guitar, or voice I can help in that as well.
When teaching I like to base the curriculum off of interests of the child so they can understand on a personal level, and also be excited to learn and relate what they learn to the things that they enjoy. I do not personally own any curriculum or books.

“To know how to suggest is the art of teaching.”

I have recently graduated and am eager to share my knowledge with others. During my time in school, I became an AP Scholar, Presidential Scholar, 21st Century Scholar, and Honor Graduate. I graduated in the top ten percent of my class and am dedicated to the education of others. I am currently pursuing a degree in education.
Learning should be a fun experience for children and adults alike, and while I maintain structure, I also want to make sure that students are enjoying the time that they spend learning with me. I am a patient teacher, and as someone who went through school with ADD, I understand the difficulties many children face in traditional classroom settings.

Everyone needs help now and again!

I find most children at young ages are visual learners, but I am easily adjustable to many teaching styles to fit the students needs.
I have worked with children ages 5 and up for a few years now. I have 3 siblings all 8 years or more younger than me, and have had lots of experience with children in elementary school. I have tutored middle school students after hours, and have worked with Special Needs children throughout my summers and within my school.

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : I am a trained, credentialed Montessori teacher with 30+ years of experience.

I have a hands on personal approach to learning. I believe many children get"lost"in the system and need individual skills and strategies to catch up and feel good about themselves as legitimate learners and doers."I can't" means "I won't" - attitude rather than ability and a fear of failure. Once a relationship of hope and increasing ability becomes apparent, most kids begin to care and thrive again. I use Montessori philosophy as well as some manipulatives with auditory and visual strategies to support concrete learning. I believe it is important to form a team around the child, including parents, teachers, and specialists where needed. I include the family in the tutoring goals, as learning must be fun and constant in the moment, not just one or two hours a week.
I have 40 years of teaching experience in the Montessori Method of education. During this time I have taught children ... read more

Struggles with math or reading

Teaching children is something that brings me joy. Watching them make strides and connections in their learning makes me smile. I currently teach preschool to children with many different cognitive, behavioral, medical, sensory, and emotional needs. In the evenings and occasionally I get calls from my niece to help her via face time with her algebra. We have been doing this tutoring for 2 yrs.
My teaching style can fluctuate depending on the child and what needs to be accomplished. My goal is to build confidence in the student through small but very important accomplishments. I use a combination of technology and good ole pencil and paper to teach anything from math to reading.

Brain-based, student-centered
I'm Ebony! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor's in Cognitive Studies and Education, and earned a Master's degree with distinction in Curriculum and Instruction. I am a Cognitive Specialist/neuroeducator whose sole objective is bridging the divide between the student and the content, using methods based on the individual's learning style. As I think back to when I have achieved most success as a student, it was always because of a phenomenal educator who taught the content in ways that appealed to my learning style. I was immersed in the content, and I thrived because of it. I provide the same instructional strategies and experiences for my students, who vary from children with neurological differences such as Autism, Dyslexia, and other learning differences, to gifted students, to adults who never learned how to read or perform mathematics.
