I enjoy helping students reach their full potential & feeling a sense of accomplishment. I received a Liberal Arts education because my parents thought as did my teachers, professors, & I that a Liberal Arts education teaches creativity, flexibility, sound, logical reasoning, & good judgment. It is these ideas which I want to impart to my students. My philosophy of education includes utilizing the student's background in order to help the student discover & create meaning so that he or she can learn & better understand the material they must learn in order to become successful. I love to read; I always carry a book with me, & I share this love with my students. Every successful person in life that I know of reads; reads well, & reads often. As a Memphis City Schools teacher, I was responsible for planning & organizing instruction to Middle & High School students in the areas of English &

All my life I have loved to learn. I thrive on academics, and I remember my college and high school days with fondness. It makes me sad to see students struggle, their frustration pushing out any passion for what they are learning. As a tutor, I try to instill my own passion inside of them. Learning is exciting, and sometimes a change in perspective is all that is needed to bring understanding. I work with the student to find the best, most effective, approach to a subject. I am patient, friendly, and I'm very good at what I do. There is nothing so rewarding as to see the light of understanding come into the eyes of my students. Growing up, I was always very gited academically. I never struggled with school, and learning was an easy pleasure. I graduated as valedictorian, and when I got to college I started tutoring to help others that had more difficulty in class. I didn't beg

As a Special Educator I live off believing that all students can learn something. All students can achieve at something. I believe in support from others because I am no miracle worker, but I believe in support, repetion and dedication in learning. I am a hands on teacher. I use many approaches that will support the learning style of the student. I relate a lot of " real world" senarios to my teaching to help correlate the lesson. I also believe that if a student has the heart to achieve as I have to give him what he needs to achieve, then both of us are going to meet our goal of achievement. I am currently a Special Education teacher with Memphis City Schools. I have taught Pre-K through High School for over 15 years. I have tutored disabled and non-disabled students in Elementary, Middle and High schools. My goal is to work with the student gradually building from current learning le

Any opportunity to help someone else is one I enjoy participating in. As I mentioned, I am going into nursing and wish to work in pediatrics. I have been tutoring children/adolescents for years and can truly say that it has been a rewarding experience. Relating or connecting with a student have never been an issue with me. I am familiar with the various learning styles/techniques and do my best to incorporate them in my instruction. My aim is not only for my student's grades to improve but also for him/her to master the material. Therefore, I constantly review and reinforce previous lessons. My ultimate reward is for a student to become independent in a subject matter and even be proficient enough to teach or assist someone else. Education has played an important role in my life and success since my elementary school years, and I feel its value is immeasurable. In 2007, I earned

As a Lane College Graduate & the daughter of a schoolteacher education has always been of the utmost importance to me. I was always driven to attain a high level of academic excellence. I have earned a bachelor degree, BS in Biology which has enabled me to gain an understanding of the analytical & logical thinking processes involved in math & science. In addition, my minor in Chemistry has afforded me the ability to learn the experimentation process, the observation process as well as the research process. I am passionate about teaching and working with children. I believe no child is unable to learn. I believe in using creative and innovative teaching techniques to engage children in their learning process. It is my belief that if you relate the subject matter to their everyday life and activities it causes them to become excited about learning & makes them accountable for their own edu

As language is universal and so critial in conveying ideas, I truly enjoy teaching others to express themselves verbally and in writing. I believe it is important to explain the value of a particular subject matter and give a detailed summary of what should be accomplished in the lesson. I utilize a rather formal teaching style, because language has specific "rules" as far as what is correct or incorrect and what is acceptable speech, as opposed to unacceptable slang terminology. I developed a love for language, writing and learning as a high school student, so majoring in English was the natural choice for me. I graduated high schoool with honors and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Millsaps College, a small liberal arts college, well-known for its academic excellence in MS and across the nation. After college I worked as a substitute instructor for all grade levels in my home t
