Patience is my Virtue....Creative Writing and Reading Tutor

I am a patient and compassionate tutor and I have experience breaking barriers in learning for children who are stuck because of anxiety or blocks to reading, writing or mathematics.
I have over ten years experience in the Montessori environment as a lead teacher. In addition to Montessori academics such as Math and Reading, I have been trained as a Literacy tutor. I have taught over a hundred children to read in my ten years in the classroom and tutoring reading and writing is my strength. I have published in newspapers, newsletters, and maintain a blog on Blogger.com that has almost 3000 viewers since I created it in April of 20ll. Creative writing and poetry skills are showcased in my blog Soul Warrior Awakenings.

Never stop learning!

I grasped the importance of education at a very young age and excelled throughout school. Early in my youth I also developed a sincere passion for helping fellow classmates who I saw were having difficulties comprehending course material. I had a knack for connecting with students, identifying the point of confusion, and creating different avenues to reach full comprehension of a subject matter. I have since went on to develop tutoring groups on all educational levels. I co-founded a youth group T.U.F.F. (Teach Us First Foundation) where we attend local elementary schools offering tutoring services in Math, English, Sciences and Social Studies. During high school I developed a teen study group entitled Let's Rap where we would meet (with professional tutors on site), assist each other with homework and discuss any material that was causing confusion in class. During my time at Albany ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Most of my experience is informal with tutoring family members/church members/friends in whatever areas they were struggling. Nearly everyone was pleased with what I was able to teach them and they showed improvement. In addition to tutoring, I have also mentored. In particular, at Emory University, I have for three years served as a mentor to incoming freshmen. I have helped them become acclimated to Emory and have also helped them create plans for courses and future plans. Therefore, I am confident in my tutoring and mentoring abilities.
I start out with discussing the area of weakness with the student and then try to investigate why this might be the area of weakness. Once this is discovered, I teach the student (through examples) until they understand the topic with which they need help. Then, I observe how they perform without my guidance and see if they have learned to comple ... read more

Teaching the way that my students learn best.

I believe in using real life situations, scenarios, and actively using technology. I like to use life lessons to enable my kids to realize that I am humble person, and I truly want the best for them academically as well as student. I incorporate peer discussions, peer tutoring, exit slips out the door, and class discussions to actively engage my students through the content and the process of learning. In doing so, my plan is to get my students to open up about what they know about the content and share it with their classmates. As a result, my students are more engaged in demonstrating content and standards understanding because I allow my students to demonstrate their learning through the way in which they learn best.
I have teaching experience with both general education and special education on the middle school level as well as the elementary level through my private schoo ... read more

Learning never ceases; so, why should you?

My teaching style is a mixture of strict and lenient. I try to form a connection with students and apply that to my teaching method (i.e. incorporating a similar hobby in a question in order for the student to understand the material better). I expect my students to give me and the other students respect- never speaking while others are speaking, no disruptions, ect. This method of teaching has shown effective and a fun learning environment. I base my curriculum around the importance of reading. Reading is the easiest and most effective way of obtaining knowledge and using it in the world.
I have had the honor of working with many kids in regards to a variety of fields. My experiences taught me responsibility, patience, the importance of learning and education, and much more. The various teaching opportunities I have been fortunate to have have impacted my social and educational li ... read more

I have spent fourteen years teaching first through eighth grades. I enjoy using real life situations to model subject matter to be learned. I stress the reinforcement of skills learned, and enjoy outings where the children can be exposed to the arts and sciences in a natural setting. I love teaching to the different intelligences. This provides a more enriching experience or the learner.

I was apart of my high school tuturing club. I havent had any formal experience but my SAT score was 1863. I passed my Georgia High School Graduation Test with honors. I was pushed ahead in school to the point that I was done with regular classes and could have graduated a year early. I love history and english, 2 of my most favorite subjects and because I loved them so much, I excell in both.
