Hands on, direct, will not bash you with criticism but will give quite enough to help. I probably quite understand where you are coming from.
Have had several very succcessful classes in biology (anatomy in particular) and english, writing, history. I have with a group successfully dissected a full human cadaver. I have also tutored summer school in the past so I am comfortable working with people. I am familiar with both MLA and Turabian essay format. I have also been a human anatomy volunteer and instructor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

My style of teaching is more of a participant style. I enjoy when students contribute to class discussions. It brings joy to my heart when a child finds a task complicated and eventually succeeds. Many of the children that I have taught often call me. It is my belief, that as an educator I must be creative and see each child as an individual and not as a group. As an educator, I am responsible for not only teaching students but for coaching, mentoring, tutoring and inspiring young minds to achieve greatness.
I have taught both adults and youth. I was instrumental in assisting adults in obtaining their high school diploma and college degree. As a youth teacher, I was responsible for teaching students to read and as a result of their improving in this area; I was promoted to a teacher’s position. I have tutored students on an individual basis, and a result they were able to be prom ... read more

I am a student at the University of South Alabama studying to be an elementary school teacher. I will graduate in December of 2014. I have experience with lesson planning, therefore, I am familiar with the curriculum that is used by the public school system. I know what is required for elementary school students and I have had adequate training in the instruction of grades K-6, as well as special education.
I believe in an independent learning style, leading the student to discover the right answer; not just supplying it without them having to work. It is important to make sure that students know the background of whatever they are learning so they can grasp the concepts inside and out.

As a native of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I am eager to see students of this area excel in their studies. Fortunately, I was able to grasp the subjects of Mathematics and Chemistry, and this has allowed me to enjoy a successful career as a Chemical Engineer. I recognize the challenges that students face, especially in the areas of Mathematics and Chemistry, and I am confident that with hard work, they will be able to develop their skills and understanding of these subjects. I have tutored family and friends, in college and high school, and have found that repetition feeds confidence, and confidence feeds success.
As stated above, I believe the keys to successful training and tutoring is through repetition. I expect a great deal from each student, because I am convinced that we all have the capacity to learn. I feel that the role of a tutor is to facilitate the learning of the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My degree in Psychology has a strong basis in Behavior Analysis. This is what I will be getting my Master’s degree in starting in the Fall. My teaching style mainly focuses on positive reinforcement. I use positive reinforcement in order to increase a behavior of choice. The behaviors we want to increase can range from working more math problems, reading more, increase doing home work, increase studying, etc. An instructional method will be used as well in order increase their knowledge of the subject and then positive reinforcement will increase their confidence and motivation which is necessary for success.
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry from the University of Mississippi. I am dedicated and plan to further my education at the Master’s level. My undergraduate career consisted of many hours of numerous subjects such as Math (Algebra-Calculus II) ... read more

Being blessed with excellent teachers in my past, I have grasped all the subjects well enough to help other students achieve high marks as well. I received an AA degree in General Education and a BFA in Interior Design. It was me the other students would come to when they needed help understanding math problems, writing essays or developing design skills. Arousing a desire within the student has always been the key for my success as a tutor.

I am young, enthusiastic, understanding, and patient. I am passionate about teaching, and it is my foremost goal to direct students toward academic success. I think of teaching as a fine art, founded upon a set of testable objectives. Each and every student is capable of learning, but no one specific formula can guarantee that learning will actually occur. Instead, the process by which it is accomplished is unique to the individual student; personal learning style must be critically evaluated in the development of any effective tutoring plan. A dynamic relationship should also exist between teacher and student, since ideas must be exchanged, discussed, understood, remembered, and applied.
I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Sciences, with honors, and am currently working toward the completion of a Ph.D. in Basic Medical Sciences. My scientific training supports ... read more

As a Special Education teacher with over twenty years of experience, I have taught from preschool through the collegiate level. My specialty is working with students with learning disabilities. I particularly enjoy working with students who are having reading problems. I have tutored many students throughout the years and have primarily focused on reading, math, language arts, science and social studies in the elementary through middle grades.
My background is in Special Education, and I have worked with students with all types of disabilities. I realize that every child is unique and that some children require a different approach to instruction. I focus on each child's set of strengths and mold my teaching approach to fit those strengths in order to ensure success.

As a current teacher in Mobile County, I have the adequate skills and training necessary to tutor students in grades 3-6 in math, reading, and science. I have two Bachelor’s degrees, a Master of Education and I am currently pursuing an educational specialist degree. During the last few years, I have taught 6th grade, two years of 5th grade and I am currently a 4th grade teacher.
My lessons are student-centered and driven by mastering basic skills, in an effort to acquire the skills necessary to take on more challenging academic material. It is my belief that children are subject to many advantages in today's classroom with the integration of technology and interactive learning. However, with so many children spending excessive time watching TV, playing video games, etc., it is difficult for the classroom setting to compete. I believe that tutors can help bridge the gap in informati ... read more
