Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Ladys Island, SC

I am quite flexible. I think every person learns differently and no singular method should be applied to when it comes to tutoring; this is not an assembly line. I would take things on a case by case basis and adapt as needed, ensuring the student is getting the best possible help that I can offer him or her. I am an English major at the University of South Carolina Beaufort in my final semester of study and will be graduating in December with a BA and a concentration in writing. Though I have never formally been a tutor, I have always been the person that my friends have gone to for help with composing papers, interpreting and analyzing passages of literature, and general study skills for how to improve their writing and/or reading abilities. I am a member of my university's varsity softball team, and I have helped a lot of my teammates on long bus rides to games delve into a passage of

I try to me more personable than most instructors. Many students simply need another approach to a subject to understand the material. I actively find that perfect approach for an individual student. I have taught and tutored since I was sixteen. I currently teach for USC, a few online universities, Syl. Learning Center, and am a Professional Writing Tutor. I teach all grades and university levels, but my specialties are AP Courses and university courses. I have taught everything from 4 yr olds phonics to College level writing and literature to basic maths and sciences to Calculus and Trig.

I earned a bachelor of science degree in Adolescent/Young Adult English/Language Arts Education from Miami University in December 2008. I then taught tenth, eleventh and twelfth grade English for six months, from January to June 2009. During the 2009-2010 school year I have been substitute teaching in both middle and high school. I am currently in a freshman English classroom for seven weeks while the full-time teacher is out on maternity leave and I will be in an eighth grade English classroom for seven weeks for another maternity leave until the end of the school year. I enjoy working with middle and high school age students. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time teaching and I love helping students understand more in their English classes. I am very passionate about reading and proper grammar and get so happy when I see a student's face light up in understanding of a new concept. If the f

As the child of college educated parents who themselves were educators, I was drawn to education early in my life. I love to read and to help others to read. I have a Masters Degree in Reading Instruction. I also like to write. Wherever I worked as an educator, I always emphasized developing writing skills, whether I was teaching middle school students or high school students or community college students. I also did homebound tutoring for a few years when I was a dean and then assistant principal. I firmly believe that I can assist any student in learning the skills of reading and writing, or in anything involving high school or college literature, or in preparing for various standardized tests. I firmly believe that I am a student-centered educator. My ego is not involved in what I am doing. Each child learns in a different manner. A teacher's job is that of finding out how each studen

I have been a camp counselor, tutor, coach and teacher. I have taught English in Ghana, preschool in Argentina and special education in the Bronx. I have taught and worked with children of all levels, ages and backgrounds. I am very strong in writing and communication, but have also taught math up to fifth grade. I have taught science and social studies up to fifth grade as well. I believe all children can learn, but that all children learn differently. Having taught special education, I had a range of grade levels in my class. Very often the students would be spread out over three grade levels. Because of this, I am extremely good at tailoring my instruction to different levels and learning types. I try many different approaches to cater to different learning styles. Ultimately, I choose the method based on it's success and also how much the student enjoys it. Ultimately, the student ne

I always make the attempt to reach the individual, and praise each of my students, even in a classroom setting. I explain that I only know the person/student that he or she shows me. I have had tremendous success with, and great feedback from, my students. I believe that providing a positive, comfortable atmosphere, the student is better able to focus on the subject. I seem to have worked in the education field from the very beginning. I started out in preschools, and most recently have been teaching at the college level. I have taught every age in between. I am very skilled at not only grammar, but also the elements of composition.

Since childhood, I have worked to help students improve their skills at reading, writing, public speaking or any other subject I could offer help with. In May, 2009, I received my BA in English, which allows me to assist with all English subjects, including writing, grammar, public speaking, and literature. I am also comfortable tutoring in Music Theory, Vocal Performance, and Basic Piano and am able to work with beginning French learners on grammar, vocabulary, and reading skills. I have worked as an undergraduate teaching assistant for a Sophomore-level writing class and helped students to improve their grade up to 18 percentage points. For the last five years, I have tutored in English, Music, and Beginning French. I enjoy teaching and working with students from age 4 through 40 and have worked with students throughout that range. I believe that patience, integrity and compassion are

I was Lead Tutor at Armstrong Atlantic State University (2001-2003) in the Writing Center. I had previously tutored at Greenfield Community College in the Learning Center (1996-1998). My passion is to teach children with special needs (Autism). My BA degree was in Psychology (2008). I have tutored in in English, Psychology, and Biology. I am currently working on my Master's degree in Special Education. I have tutored with private facilities as well, such as Royce Learning Center and Legends Learning Center in Savannah, Ga. I enjoy both public and private facilities. I have patience, knowledge, and empathy for children with many different learning levels. I enjoy working with children with Autism, behavior disorders, and learning disabilities. I use applied behavior analysis and create goals for each child. I am flexible, willing to modify my approach. I want children to feel comfortable

Hey there. I am a medical school drop out. I have my bachelors in biology, with minors in botany, chemistry and economics. I wandered through many subjects and interest in school. I have tutored fellow students in my undergrad and in med school. I have a good understanding of algebra, economics, chemistry, physiology and writing papers. I cannot tell you I will be the best tutor on your roster, but I have crossed paths with many students that were ready to throw in the towel and have helped them bring their average to a b level before the semester was out. I do enjoy helping students with their problems. I have a technique of visualization. for example, which is the first example I use. I tell the student to think of a tree. in the seconds you think of a tree, you don't think of just the tree. you think of the roots, the trunk, the limbs, the branches, the leaves. then you think of what

As a college graduate, I have strived for academic excellence. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics with Financial Certification. During my college journey, I gained useful knowledge in Mathematics, History and English. While my exposure includes Level 3 Calculus and Statistics, my expertise is in College Algebra. Over the last five years, I have tutored students, as well as adults, in Algebra, English and Business. I enjoy helping people, children and adults. I know that everyone can learn with the proper teaching method. My tutoring technique incorporates various learning styles. I use visual aids, such as flash cards and color codes, to help my students understand the concepts. Additionally, I encourage my students to take notes and read aloud to assist them in solving the problems. These tools help me to design an individualized lesson plan for my students. I strive

I graduated with a Bachelors degree in English from the University of South Carolina. Throughout my studies, I explored various literature and produced many pieces of writing, both analysis and creative. After moving back to Atlanta, I was a Reading and Writing teacher at a successful education center in Marietta, Georgia. While being an instructor at the tutoring center, I had the opportunity to teach children of all ages. My role at the tutoring center led me to my pursuit of a M.A.T. in Secondary English at Mercer University in Atlanta, Georgia. I will graduate from Mercer in December 2009. During my time as a graduate student at Mercer, I had many opportunities to participate in classroom instruction and classroom management. I believe that a teacher should teach because he or she possesses a quest for learning, a passion for a particular subject, and is driven by a true calling

I stumbled upon the joy of teaching as I helped others learn to dive recreationally in my early 20’s. When I began my real estate career, I worked primarily with first time home buyers, whom I educated constantly. With the housing market collapse my desire to instruct in this manner grew as I segued into the insurance industry, and was given an opportunity to open a branch office and personally train over 50 agents in a one on one capacity over the course of two years. I still currently educate a class of insurance agents every few weeks on the complexity of products available to individuals in the market, and how to sell them, while sharing a few life lessons along the way. I am happy to share my book of individual student evaluations. I am a happy, outgoing, energetic, creative, and passionate individual comfortable in any environment, anytime, anyplace, and am able to talk to anyo

I am committed to differentiated instruction based on Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. In addition, for many of my unit and lesson plans I rely on Blooms Taxonomy, in order to reach the higher levels of learning, those beyond knowledge and comprehension. I frequenly use art and social history to keep the subjects relatable for my secondary-level students. I have taught 9th grade repeaters, 9th grade honors, and 12th grade on-level classes, as well as creative writing, thus revealing a range of ages, abilities, and subjects. Having worked in corporate America, I am a career-changer teacher who, despite growing up with a educationally-oriented family, came to teaching a bit later in life. I am a life-long reader as well as learner. Add these factors to my formal education in secondary teaching, English language, British literature, and teaching English as a second language,

I am a recently retired business executive who started his career as a school teacher. I taught English Language and Literature before embarking on a career in business. When working for three (3) blue-chip companies, I also taught Business Writing and Negotiations to sales and engineering professionals. I mentored executives with high potential to grow and excel during my watch. I also motivated difficult and “low achievers” to maximize their contribution. I was also keynote speaker to seniors in Michigan and Ohio. I possess two bachelor degrees (English and Business Education) and a Masters in Management. I am a firm believer that everyone has the ability to succeed in the right environment and under the guidance of the right tutor. As a result, I study each individual to find their potential, interest, and learning medium. After that, my role is to adapt my style and mater
