A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught three years of Elementary school in Georgia. I taught two years in third grade and most recently, I have taught fifth grade.
I love teaching and working with children. I try to make my lessons enjoyable for my students. I especially enjoy hands-on lessons where the students are very involved. I also like to use Constructivism in my classroom where I let my students create their own methods to solve problems. I very much want to be a positive influence in children's lives.

In addition to a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree, I possess 25 years of experience in Accounts Payable, Receivable and General Accounting. The record-keeping nature of my past experience has given me a facility for detail, patience and the ability to keep accurate records.
I am a patient teacher and have a passion for helping others to succeed at all they may attempt. I also enjoy teaching children and young adults new things and skills to aid them in the future. There is no greater reward than seeing a former student after they have become a successful adult.

A Little Bit About Me...

I sincerely believe that my specific learning style is one of trust and love. I firmly believe that in order for a student to learn, they must both trust you and believe that you like or love them. Knowing this, my style of teaching is a personal one. I prefer to push my students within their comfort level. Many of my students often say "this is too hard." When I hear this, I know that they are just where they should be. I prefer for my students to make attempts and then allow me to help them before they become frustrated. Guidance more so than teaching is my goal.
Over the past 12 years, I've earned numerous degrees and certifications, however, none of them compare with what I've learned from the students I've personally taught. Each year in the classroom has taught me that children learn and thrive on a diverse number of situations and goals. I've learned that there is no ... read more

I would love to say that I have only one teaching style but I cannot tell you that. What I can say is that my teaching style will adapt to the student. When you have a student that catches on fast you are able to test their ability to understand what was taught in numerous ways. However for a student that may not grasp a concept as easily a more structured approach may be a more beneficial tool. I am capable of adapting to the student, the goal is for them to understand.
I completed my Bachelor's degree in 2001. I then decided to pursue my Master's in 2006 to get my Master's in Biology, while taking my courses I had to also take extra courses to refresh my previous biology classes. Some of which includes Human Anatomy, Physics, Neuroscience, and Chemical Analysis. I have had experience tutoring before but at the time I was tutoring a peer of mine in high school.

More About This Tutor...

I started tutoring in different after-school programs in New York City while in high school. I enjoyed it so much that even while in college, I continued tutoring and being a group counselor. I even had the opportunity to work with a one-on-one tutoring agency in which I traveled to students homes to help them privately. I have also worked as a literacy mentor for daycare children so that they would be ready for pre-school or kindergarten and not be left behind in reading skills. During these last six years, I have taught and tutored every subject up to the 7th grade level.
I have always had a passion for educating children. In the process, I have been able to observe different teachers and their methods. So I was able to form my own tutoring style and method that has worked pretty well for me and my students. I have always encouraged my students to learn by letting them have a mor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a Master in Management and an Undergraduate degree in Finance, Marketing and International Business. I am also bilingual and fluently speak french. My work experience coupled with my educational background would make me a valuable tutor to any student needing my help. In the past I have conducted training courses for employees, I was also a tutor during my years in college.
I love teaching children and adults alike. I beleive teaching should be tailored to each individual, because we are all different and learn at a different pace. I also beleive that you should make your teaching relatable to the subject if interest of the student.If a student has a passion for mussic try to use that as an avenue for your lessons,once they are engaged in something they are passionate about it would make learning even more fun.

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. I was known for covering curriculum material in a through and patient manner. 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy helping student evolve by providing a different way of receiving information and simple follow up techniques to assure reception and retention of information. I have worked with children and adults and enjoy the opportunity to encourage a student who feel that all hope is loss. We can all do better when we have the support of someone who recognizes our frustrations yet redirects our attention to smaller areas of strength that we can build on.
For the previous 12 years I have enjoyed a career in education. I have taught a variety of subject matter from Reading, History, Science, Math and even Spanish for grade levels ranging from Prek to 11th. I am currently certified in 2 states for Elementary, Middle School and High School grades for Special Education and Language Arts and History.

As a talented pre-med and psychology student, I have a firm grasp of the sciences. I started tutoring in my second year attending Mount Holyoke College. I was the Head Teachers Assistant for the Math Department. On a weekly basis I tutored college students in calculus I and II. I coordinated schedules for the tutors in the department. As a student driven to excel, I completed two theses as a senior. My major thesis was in neuroscience, whereas my minor's thesis was in genetics. These writing skills paid off when I helped published a peer reviewed article as a Clinical Research Associate in the Anesthesia Research Division of The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. In spring 2007, I completed post graduate coursework in General and Organic Chemistry at Emory University with A's in lieu of future studies.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in tutoring is drawn from my work as a substitute teacher and tutor, and from my professional and academic experience as well. I was a subsitute teacher for K-8 for four years. I taught a variety of subjects in both elementary and middle school including math, science, grammar, literature, social studies, general music, arts, and physical education. I also served for a year as a tutor with a church in the afterschool academy teaching Spanish and Algebra. My computer and science expertise comes from my military background as a computer network analyst. I taught several classes on radio and satellite communications, and computer operating systems. With my political science and Spanish concentrations associated with my BA, I can also tutor in social science, English (grammar and composition) and Spanish.

My strongest suit in my teaching style is probably the many ways that I would approach teaching a certain principle. If the student does not understand one way to approach a problem, I try to best to help them understand and learn another way. I feel like since everyone learns differently, a tutor should approach a problem from as many angles as possible. My teaching style is also very patient. I suppose the saying "give a man a fish, feed him for a day, teach a man how to fish, feed him for a lifetime" would apply to my style. I try to make sure the student understands the principles behind the type of problem and not just how to do the one problem. That way, if they see another problem like the one they just learned, they can apply what the learned and do the second problem.

More About This Tutor...

After tutoring students for a combined four years now, I have learned very quickly that each student is different. Some require more of a hands-on approach, while others work best independently. I prefer to get an understanding of what works best for the student first, and this allows me to tailor my teaching style accordingly. However, I am a thorough and deliberate tutor, and I have found this approach works best in conjunction with the student’s learning style to promote effective long-term mastering of tutored material. Tutoring students is something I have love and great devotion for, and my passion for helping students is unequalled.
In high school, I was the typical overachiever. I played varsity baseball, led many school organizations, and was at the top of my class. School, especially math subjects, came easy to me, but that is not the case with everyone. Therefore, I w ... read more
