I recently graduated with my Bachelors from the University of Tennessee. My degree is in English, but I have tons of experience tutoring in just about everything. The ages I have tutored most is older elementary, middle, and high schools as well as college. I can especially help prepare students for college and help them succeed in college. Since I am closer to the age of the older students, it is much easier for me to connect with the students as well as help them with their needs. Thanks for the opportunity and consideration. Heather

As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must

Highly qualified k-8 For 20 years I worked for Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools, as a fifth through 7th Grade classroom teacher. I taught all of the academic subjects in various combinations, sometimes all at once to a self-contained class. The State of Tennessee recognized me as "Highly Qualified" in all subjects, from Kindergarten through 8th Grade. I served on the district's math council for 5 years, helped direct the district's science fair one year, and worked extensively in the field of arts-based curriculum development. I also was trained in the IB curriculum, and implemented it for 10 years. Constructivist, multi-sensory, inquiry-based.

I am currently completing my final year at Vanderbilt Law School. Over the past three years, I have taught a class and provided one-on-one tutoring for students preparing to take the LSAT. I also taught an upper level course while in grad school (it was in radio production). While I was in undergrad, I spent time tutoring elementary and middle school aged children over the internet. All together, I have helped dozens of individual students in a private setting and nearly a hundred students in the classroom. Personally, I love numbers and have always been very comfortable with math. But my grades and test scores have always been just as strong in other subjects, and I am confident that I can help you or your child in any of the areas listed below.

I tutored before but of course I wasn't paid for it because it was at my old elementary school. I helped children from ages 8-13 which I was only 11 or 12 at the time. I maybe young to tutor children and maybe I should wait until I'm 18 but, I love helping children with their homework and watch them accomplish the subject.

• Student teaching in 2nd grade English and Language Arts. This experience allowed me to connect with indictable students and work with struggling leathers. This one on ken time allowed me to target the specific area the student was struggling with and offer solutions. The students showed improvement over time. • Practicum experience in 6th grade Social Studies. • Experience advising and lecturing in a higher education setting at Tennessee Technological University as a Graduate Assistant. My teaching style is hands on. I prefer to connect with the individual in order to determine how they learn best. I adapt my style in order to reach and connect with the individual on their level and preferred learning style.

I try my best to adjust my teaching style to meet every individual's needs. I know that every person not only is taught differently, but also learns and understands differently as well. I am graduating with my Bachelor's degree in Sociology at Tennessee Technological University of Cookeville, TN. I transferred from a 2 year community college in Harriman, TN known as Roane State Community College. Before starting college, I graduated from Rockwood High School in Rockwood, TN, where I never made lower than a B or a high C in some of my harder classes. I started taking college classes in my Senior year of high school and I was always in the advanced Math classes up until that point. I'm a quick, fast learner and always strive to be better in what I do. Right now, my major at TTU is in the concentration of Social Work, in which I hope to become a high school guidance counselor or a counselor

I have been a substitute teacher and tutor for general education and special education students of the Williamson County School District. Before that, I was working with adults and students in a ministry environment back in Texas as a worship leader and music teacher. My education has centered around music, theology, and literature primarily (with a general exposure to various other sciences). I like to give students the tools and watch them practice using those tools for themselves. I encourage two-way communication.

While still in high school and also during my college years, I was always helping others excel in education. Offering study sessions to elementary and junior high students helped me understand what brings out the best in each child. To earn my degree in Business Administration I had to constantly practice math and English. Taking computer classes in college and on the job training gives me first hand knowledge of computers. Making above average grades in science and social studies in school allowed me to help tutor other students while still in school. I did 3 years of volunteer study sessions for the local civic league while coaching sports with these same children. I have learned since having children of my own that patience and understanding each child is the key to success. I take the time to listen as well as clearly explain subjects so that no question is left unanswered. As a

When I attended college, I was chosen by my professor to be a tutor. I was paid by the State for this service. I love accounting and I am at the right place in life to be able to teach/tutor. The prospect of helping someone learn is exciting to me. I must work and part-time would suffice. I know that my experience is limited but that does not reflect on my knowledge or abilities. Thank you for your consideration of my application. I have wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. Circumstances have always prevented me from pursuing my goal. I have taught bible classes and other related classes, so I know a little about the class room setting. I believe that children want to learn and that they want to be successful. I believe that the key is motivation and leading them to understand that a good education will make a difference in their lives. The road to discovery o
