My comments on tutoring Testing Strategies : I have a PhD in Educational Leadership, a master's in English, and have taught at a four-year university and a two-year college. I have also worked with HS students in college preparation skills.

I have experience teaching at a two-year university and a two-year college, in composition, communications, and public speaking. I have also run an educational non-profit that works with students to set college and career goals. I hold a PhD in Educational Leadership. Education is my passion, and I would love to help local students excell!
I believe in working with students, not talking at them. I ask lots of questions and make sure students retain the information and can apply it to the real world.

Gastonia, NC area tutor

That depends on the student. Styles can be adapted to meet the needs of the student
I have 12 years experience in the healthcare/mental health field and a lot of that experience has been working with children and teens. I work well one on one with children and feel individualized attention provides the structure and support that many kids need. I am available to come to your home as this would minimize distractions too.

More About This Tutor...

My job is not to give students answers, but to push them to articulate better and give better answers. I teach not by lecturing but by discussion; together we work through problems and questions. By showing students (gently) where their thinking could be improved without giving them the actual answers, I push students to solve problems on their own. My teaching strategies were recognized with teaching awards at UVA and at UNC-Pembroke.
I have earned a PhD in philosophy from the University of Virginia, and taught at the university level at Virginia Tech, UVA, Hampden-Sydney College, West Point, and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke for ten years. During that time, I have taught philosophy, logic (including test prep for the GRE and LSAT), and composition. A chemistry minor in college, I am also proficient in basic science and mathematics. I have tutored in composition ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is the same as my parenting style. Establishing high expectations and an environment where students are provided the academic tools they need, as well as care and concern, have been the keys to my success. I have learned that all children strive to please their parents, and their teachers when they know that the teacher is invested in their success. I also seek to instill an "I can do it" attitude in my students because many have struggled and developed a negative attitude about academics. The student and I work together as a team. When one succeeds, so does the other. I include parents in each success so that the student is supported across all settings.
Throughout my years of teaching I have taught students with a broad range of abilities and needs. At the middle school level I have provided instruction in math, English, science and social studies. In high sc ... read more

Attending and graduating from Davidson College, a small liberal arts college in NC, with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry was an extremely rewarding experience. I found that the college groomed their students by emphasizing analytical skills--both scientific and literary--and giving back to the community through both service and volunteerism. As a college student, I tutored students in mathematics courses up to Multivariable Calculus and chemistry students up to Organic Chemistry. I have also taught beginning Math, Reading, and SAT Preparation at a local learning center in Atlanta as well, in addition to my experience teaching and tutoring AP Chemistry as a high school teacher.
I find nothing more exciting and rewarding than teaching a topic or subject to an individual and seeing the expression and excitement on their face when they truly begin to understand the materia ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In 2002 I graduated with a degree in biotechnology. During the last semester of school, I was a substitute teacher, where I learned a lot about children and different teaching styles. After graduation, I pursued a career as a chemist, but I always maintained a second part-time job teaching, in some fashion. Usually, that teaching involved a pool. I have been a swimming lesson instructor for 10 years and have been a YMCA swim coach for 3 seasons, coaching over 200 children per year. In these opportunities, I've learned a lot about interacting with children. I am also a trainer for my coworkers and new employees who join our team. Throughout High School and College, I excelled in Math and Science, and use many of the concepts that I learned each day in the laboratory.
I believe that each child learns in a different way, and as a teacher it is my challenge and duty to teach in s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching other people because it gives me a feeling of success and joy. It is a good feeling to see someone else learn and understand something new and interesting. I also enjoy it because I firmly believe that the best way to learn is to teach it to someone else. Since I have a strong desire to learn myself, teaching offers a mutually beneficial and successful engagement for me and the student. Everyone has a different learning style and which is why I try to teach each person in a way that is most conducive to their learning. I prefer open and constructive discussions of topics, visual and interactive teaching methods and emphasis on practice, especially in areas of math.
During the four years that I spent at UNC-Charlotte pursuing my double undergraduate degrees I gained a broad array of knowledge and skills. I graduated in 2004 with a BS in Economics and a BS in Busines ... read more

As a graduate with a BA in English Education, I received the most up-to-date and professional instruction in education. I specialize in secondary education but have tutored elementary students in reading as well as testing skills. As a high school English teacher I work with young adults every day in the classroom as well as after school in the tutoring program. While completing my degree, I also tutored students in basic psychology, history, and in writing labs. I have taken part in SCETA sponsored SAT preparation professional development courses to better prepare me in SAT tutoring.
With regards to my teaching style, I am a pragmatist. I believe that every student has the ability to learn if given the proper instruction, attention, and feedback. As a classroom teacher in public school, I try to create the kind of learning environment that will not only nurture creative and free t ... read more

I have always had a passion for kids, which is what led me to a career in Education. I earned an undergraduate degree in Middle Grades Education, with a concentration in each Mathematics and Science. My students are the driving force that motivates me to use nontraditional methods of teaching in order to get through to them. My desire to always be a better teacher has pushed me to pursue a Masters degree, which I am currently working on. For the past four years I have tutored many students, in all areas ranging from grades 3 to 11, and college calculus.
Working with all kinds of children is my passion. All children can learn in my eyes; it is my job to find out each individuals best method of learning and to cater to their specific needs.

More About This Tutor...

I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics. My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning must be relevant, interesting, and conducted in a highly accepting and supportive environment. I am keenly aware of the sense of inadequacy of students who come to tutoring services (I have been one myself in the past) and make special care to make all my students feel that improvement is possible for anyone. The knowledge and strategies that high performers utilize are not exclusive; anyone can learn with patience and the right tutor!
I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT). A score of 1400 on the SAT allows me th ... read more

I have been working with children since I was thirteen. I am an avid reader and enjoy sharing that and reading with children. For two years I taught a reading readiness program to first and second graders who where non readers. What an experience to have those students become readers just by having that one on one teaching time. Some children just need that extra time and learning experience and they soar. As an educator I have witnessed that time and time again. I can really make a differance in a students progress.
I graduated from a four year institution and earned a BA degree in health education and a minior in education. I taught four years and tutored students for four years part time through a reputiable tutoring company. My skill include reading, writing, math up to pre algebra. I teach study skills, time management and organizational strategies in order to have students ... read more
