My comments on tutoring Composition : I have lots of experience teaching 5 and 7 paragraph essays, research reports, and how to quickly craft an essay for the GED or SAT. I know the formats and how they are scored and can teach them to you for success.

I excel at identifying each students strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. I can quickly adapt or create lessons as needed. Most of my students look forward to our time together, as we have fun, but get our work done.
I homeschooled my three daughters for 10 years, right through high school. All three have gone on to Colllege and have excelled, making the Dean's list. In the work world, two have been highly praised for their writing skills. After homeschooling, I began tutoring. I have over 5 years experience and have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students, as well as adults preparing for exams such as the GED. I am experienced working with students who have IEP's and learning disabilities. Call or text at number below to discuss your needs.

I have been an elementary school teacher for the past four years. I teach at a private school in Columbia, SC. I currently teach fourth grade, and pride myself at being a phenomenal math teacher. Teaching academics is extremely important, but also teaching character education is important also. When a student is proud of themselves, they can become self motivated and willing to improve themselves.
Hands on

I am a Secondary Education-English major at University of South Carolina Aiken. I am well prepared to help with any English related questions or homework you have. I am on the Dean's List for the university which shows scholastic achievement. I have, or am currently taking, many English, literature, and creative writing classes. I am always willing to help out anyone who needs it.
I am very relational. I just don't give the answers; I want to be shown that you understand why that is the correct answer. I try to make English as interesting and easy to understand as possible because I know that for some it's incredibly difficult.

I strive to work with each student on an individual abilities format. I believe every student with a desire to learn can achieve their education goals. I provide a positive learning environment and am always willing to "go the extra mile" for any student with what I call "the yearning for learning"! It is my considered opinion that children can tell if the teacher is really interested in them or just collecting a salary and will perform better for a truly committed educator. Having committed the rest of my life to the education of the students in this state,this, simply stated is my life's goal: "I cannot provide all the good the world needs but the world needs all the good that I can do." --anonymous

I believe in teaching through doing. When I taught German I conducted my class almost completely in German (the beginner level), and while this would seem difficult for the students to learn my students scored excellently on their tests. With enough support that they are capable of doing it and flexibility on the side of the teacher, a student can achieve whatever their goals may be, without having the bored of memorization.
Having obtained a Masters Degree in Comparative Literature I have learned to best mold my teaching methodologies into the educational needs of my students. I have taught freshman German at the college level as well as have extensive experience tutoring while I worked at the University of South Carolina. Finally do to my various educational background (I have studied everything from literature to biochemistry) I am qualified to tutor in a wide variety of sub ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a first generation college student, I understand the difficulties that many students have to face throughout their education. I am patient, caring, and passionate about ensuring each student accomplishes his or her goals. I have worked with many different students, and understand that each student learns differently. I am devoted to tailoring the tutoring sessions to each student so that they may learn effectively and obtain the most from each session. I believe that encouragement and support is necessary to build enthusiasm and foster confidence in each student throughout every step of the learning process.
I have earned a bachelor degree in Biology from Harvey Mudd College and master degree in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. As a result of this, I have gained a high level of proficiency in the subjects of math and science. Additionally, I have extensive writing ex ... read more

My main goal is not to tell a student they are wrong, but to tell them how they can make the answer correct. Being that my mother is a teacher, I have picked up many of her techniques while tutoring in the peer tutoring program at my college. I believe that it helps a student more if they can be taught by someone who has a similar background to them and are similar in age. I can provide them with an easy way to learn biological concepts just as I've learned while I am in college.
As a senior at Benedict College obtaining my B.S. in Biology, I have gained a better understanding of the study of biology as well as other science-related subjects and math. I have been a part of the Peer-Tutoring program at Benedict since I was a freshman and have tutored in the subject of Biology.

Having graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry I have always been passionate about the sciences and getting others excited about them as well. I was awarded a number of grants to perform research projects while in college and from that became familiar with collecting information and having to be extremely detail-oriented. I have developed skills in being an analytical thinker due to taking courses involving identifying microorganisms and disease research. I am a very organized as well as time oriented person. In the past I have tutored students in chemistry and biology and English.
