Percussion Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Monroe, GA

I enjoy seeing students make progress, not only in academics, but also in learning life lessons from their study. I believe this is the real vocation of a teacher. Any metods can be used to teach such as TV documentaries, radio, activities and even movies with specific lessons about life. Information is only as good as what it is used for. Therefore, I always make sure the student has formed an opinion about how the material can be used by him/her. I have taught ESL in China for more than 4 years. Through this experience I have learned that education is mind opening. This is a wonderful thing to cultivate in students and witness the outcome. The ability to form an opinion based on knowlege of the subject, and put it forward, either verbally or in writing, is the essence of education in my opinion. Through my experience in teaching Listening, Speaking and Academic Writing as a second lang

I like working with high school students with a desire to learn. As a senior member of the Civil Air Patrol, working with the cadets was a pleasure. Their abilities ranged from marginal to excellent, but every cadet had a strong desire to learn and excel in every thing they did in Civil Air Patrol. We had several cadets go the military academies and become excellent officers and

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 feel t

I find every student is different & so it is up to me to be able to acclimate to a style that works best for that particular student. Learning music is not easy for someone who has never played an instrument before, so I have to present the information in a way that it is not confusing or overwhelming for the student. Being patient & listening to students is the best approach I can take when teaching new concepts. But teaching goes beyond just being patient, I strive to be positive & I’m always encouraging my students. As a member of a musical family, I grew up w/ a profound passion for creating & understanding music. My first instrument of choice was playing the drums, I started playing when I was 12 years old. Taking lessons from the famed Wilco drummer, Glen Kotche & getting involved with the school Jazz program were highlights from my high school days. I went on to attend the U

I am graduating from Rice University with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Cell Biology and a B.A. in Asian Studies this year. I have achieved a cumulative GPA of 3.67 while attaining leadership positions in three separate school organizations. One of the biggest achievements during my college career was planning a six week-long medical mission to Kenya where I taught HIV/AIDS education to rural communities and set up mobile clinics in remote locations. I have gained extensive experience as a tutor for elementary, middle, and high school children in math and science, among other subjects. During high school, I volunteered every week to tutor elementary school-aged refugee children from Rwanda, Uganda, Serbia, and a range of other countries. I believe that teaching is most effective when you give students a chance to show you what they already know. Half of teaching is simply encouraging chi

I was introduced to teaching as a guitar teacher and loved the field of education ever since. My first school experience was teaching 7th and 8th grade social studies in Queens, N.Y.in 1979. Finally, I found my niche in high school teaching various subjects such as Physical Science, Biology, Social Studies and tutoring after school programs for the passing of the high school graduation tests. In 1993 I moved to Georgia and became fully certified in the fields of Physical Science, Health and P.E.and ESOL. I successfully tutored high school students to pass the graduation tests with a >95% rate. My years of experience have taught me that no two students are alike, especially in the 'tutoring' arena. I find the students strengths and create a positive learning environment that students actually enjoy! My students tell me they can't believe how fast the time goes; and look forward to the nex
