My preferred style of teaching is one that motivates the student(s) to invest in themselves by asking questions, extensive practice and having an open mind as to the learning process. I do not perform the work assignments nor give out the correct procedures just for the sake of getting through to the end. Spanning 15 years on the job application of 3 different CAD packages affords me the ability to offer training at a level not available in a standardized classroom setting. Using Computer Aided Drafting Design has allowed me to help create scores of new jobs and brought ideas to life resulting in deep satisfaction equal to that of any publicly displayed artist works.

After finishing my undergraduate work, I was a substitute teacher for 7 months. I then went on to Belmont University where I recieved my Masters in Education, which required a one year student teaching placement. I have also served as a TCAP interventionalist where I helped students prepare for the statewide achievment test. I love to work hands- on with children. I believe in meeting a child at their individual level, both emotionally and academically. I want to make my students believe in themselves in order that they one day meet their full potential.

I hold two bachelor's degrees from Mississippi State University. Both degrees were award under an International Business Major. I have taught German labs at the University level and can teach math whether geometry, trigonometry, algebra or pre-calculus. My teaching style is facilitative. I ask a lot of questions and require my students to practice a minimum of 3 examples in front of me for every technique I explain. I have a fun style and enjoy watching the confidence grow in my pupils. The only child that ever lost interest in what I had to say was my own. :)

I have an adaptive teaching style. I know that everyone does not learn the same way and has different levels of understanding. Therefore I try to incorporate fun and innovative ways to teach children. I talk with the students to learn their interests and hobbies and try to incorporate these things in examples. I believe the key to sucessful teaching is to make the subject matter interesting and fun for the student. Educational excellence has always been a priority in my family. It was not something that was asked for, it was expected. I have a BS in Economics from Vanderbilt University and I have achieved many certifications in my professional career. I have been tutoring with a non profit organization, A to Z Tutoring for almost four years and it has been very rewarding. The majority of clients are social services clients and No Child Left Behind students. My main area of exper

My teaching style varies depending on the needs of my clients. Typically when I tutor more than one student at a time, I like to give frequent assessments (verbal or written). These "quizzes" aren't to punish the students; I use them to assess the needs of the students and the strengths and weaknesses of my teaching methods. The results allow me to adjust my style accordingly and focus on the areas in which the students need the most help. My interest in mathematics is what originally fueled my desire to pursue an accounting degree. My work ethic and study skills are what have allowed me to earn both a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in this field. My greatest strengths, however, are writing and composition, which is why I minored in English. I've tutored in English, math, and accounting (jr high, high school, & college-level) for the past 8 years.

I love teaching children and watching them learn. I strive for that ah-ha moment with my students and seeing them make connections. I believe every child can and will learn, especially when I give them the proper tools. I enjoy using as many hands on and real life experiences as possible with my students. I believe in using research based strategies such as graphic organizers, note taking, and cooperative learning where possible in my lessons. My ultimate goal is to make a difference in the lives of my students. I have tutored one-on-one students in grades pre-K through 4. I have two semesters of student teaching, an entire year as an elementary teacher/floating teacher working with students in grades 1,2,and 3. As well as working in an after school tutoring program for reading remediation in third graders. I also tutored a first grader in reading outside of school, and am curren

As an award-winning writer, my track record offers you a fresh perspective on how students can tap into their critical thinking to better prepare them for Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program (TCAP) tests as well as other real world writing skills necessary to be responsible citizens. As a third-year teacher, some key strengths I offer include a two grade level jump or higher in reading levels in 75 percent my Reading students; a 3.8 Reading/Language TVAAS score—above the 2.8 state average; and training and experience teaching using the Language! approach. Teaching is not a job to me; teaching is a calling that places a responsibility on me to provide my students with the tools they each need for success. I consistently design my lesson plans based on Tennessee State Academic Standards--making high stakes assessment items a priority. When creating lesson plans, I use multiple asses

I love Children, I love people, and I love teaching! My Strength is Organization, and my weakness is Idealism. Since my background is in Banking and Finance, and Since Business is misperceived by students as difficult, monetary, scientific, boring, or useless, I want to demonstrate that Business is easy, daily life, a language, very necessary, and revelatory. So, the learning strategies that I will try to instill in each Tutee are self-esteem, critical thinking, problem solving, hard work, and commitment.
