Testing Strategies is one of my top subjects!

I am an certifed educator with over 7 years experience working with children in grades K-12 with learning needs. I have one-on-one and small group tutoring experience as well. I am certified in Special Education (P-12) and Elementary Education (P-5). I have experience teaching grades K-5, 6 - 8 and high school. I also have experience with children with special needs in the areas of dyslexia, dysgraphia, autism, Asperger's, EBD, SLD and many others.
I teach with the child's needs at the forefront of the learning plan. I believe everyone has the ability to learn but must learn in their own way with patience and nurturing.

Dedicated to helping children accomplish personal goals!

I have been working with special needs students with various disabilities for 10 years. I have worked with students ranging from ADHD/ADD to those who are bed ridded and need toileting assistance. I have also had to accommodate with feeding and those who are transitioning out of high school. I can teach students how to read and write and how to ride the city but to where they need to go and make it back home. I have also taught cooking and hygiene skills.
I am patient, go at the students level, and believe in the use various types of visual aids and hands on to keep my students engaged. Students learn and retain information quicker with continual repetition; however each student will grasp the information different from another and some will take more repetition than others.

Will improve educational and behavioral skills in learners.

I believe in a student-centered environment whereby I act a facilitator who guides and directs students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives, and encouraging students to develop criteria to make informed choices. My overall goal for students is to develop in students the capacity for independent action, initiative, and responsibility.
I have a plethora of experience teaching in the elementary, middle, and high schools. I developed tutoring programs where I taught students at all levels in test taking skills and in addition, I trained adults to teach students using various teaching strategies. My dissertation focused on running effective tutorial programs. Also, I have served as a Research Educational Specialist to evaluate effective after school tutorial programs. Therefore, I know first hand best practices to employ to help students and teachers succ ... read more

I earned a bachelor of science degree in chemistry with a minor in math. I worked for US Dept. of Agriculture as a methods development chemist which required a knowledge of chemistry, physics, math and statistics as well as high level computer skills. I have taught classes for over 15 years at Athens Area Technical College, University of Georgia Continuint Education Program and as owner and lead trainer for Athens Computer Training, Inc.
I have taught classes for students ranging from high school to adult with course material from the very basic to highly advnced concepts.

My teaching style could best be described as a pyrimid approach, a firm understanding of basic principles before moving to the next level of complexity.

Being a Georgia Southern graduate, I learned to enforce high level thinking and appreciation of education. I received a bachelor degree in Civil Engineering Technology, which has enabled me to get a feel of hands feel in the area of math and science. With previous work experience my communication and grammatical skills are at a professional level and have helped me be a successful engineer. During the last two years of college I volunteered at tutoring young minds in math and science which allowed me to share my knowledge with young generations of great thinkers.
I feel that teaching will not only inform young minds to think differently or make them more motivated to learn. But to allow one to master his or her knowledge in general, teaching allows oneself to fully understand the subject in their own minds. Young minds such as children are easily impacted by an adult, which I ... read more

I am a life long learner of many subjects including but not limited to English, mathematics, sciences & technology, and interpersonal communication. While my degree is in Religious studies, which gave me strong language and grammatical skills. I am driven by an insatiable curiosity to learn about many subjects. I spent much of my free time in college tutoring peers as well as my professors' children. I also continue to tutor my relatives who are local to Atlanta.
I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be. AS far as actual teaching styles go, I am demonstrative when necessary but always aiming to be more of a delegator to allow f ... read more

After my high school education, where I achieved A's in both core and elective math, I began teaching math at the elementary and high school level. I eventually broadened my scope and taught english and science, all part time. I went on to pursue my undergraduate degree and am now pursuing my MBA at Mercer University, Atlanta. I continue to teach as a passion whenever I get the opportunity to.
My style of teaching involves interesting riddles and quizzes at the beginning of each class to prepare students. I also conduct short quizzes on a regular basis to help improve students speed. I typically include illustrations and diagrams in my teaching to enhance students understanding. I am very patient with children and I make it my responsibility to help build their confidence by determining and building on their strengths and improving on their weaknesses.

As a member of the Golden Key Honor Society in Education at Queens College in Flushing, NY I excelled at all the subjects I took pertaining to Elementary Education. I have a full awareness of the importance for structure and flow within an essay. Voice is sometimes overlooked, but is equally essential in representing the author's conviction to the subject matter of their work.
After teaching for 25 years, the first and most important element of interaction between a student and a teacher is one of mutual respect. The student wants the teacher to listen to their needs and concerns, and the teacher wants to be respected for his/her wealth of knowledge through experience. This is built through patience and understanding. A personal relationship is also helpful in tutoring, more on the level of a parent or adult friend.
