Painting Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pegram, TN

As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must

I have my Masters Degree in Drawing and Painting and my Undergraduate Degree in Studio Art. I continually produce artwork professionally which can be viewed on my website: Jessicafife.com. I frequently exhibit in my city Long Beach, Los Angeles, surrounding cities, nationally and online. I served as a Teaching Associate at Cal State Fullerton from 2009-2010. During that time I gained valuable skills leading undergraduate students in courses of Painting and Life Drawing. During my teaching term there I successfully wrote the curriculum for every course, including foundational technical methods with modern concepts, with a variety of media. In my Life Drawing classes, students were taught core traditional methods, ranging from Anatomy, 8-head-high figure measurement to Composition and light and shadow shapes. My classes included elements that created a well-rounded educational experienc

I believe that when a student does not do well in school, it is not because that student cannot learn. Different teaching methods speak to different students, and sometimes a student simply needs a fresh and alternative introduction to subject material. My job as a tutor is to find the teaching method that speaks most clearly to my student. By being patient, precise, persistent, and knowledgeable, I know I can help my student reach his/her academic goals. My excellent writing skills, ACT score of 35, and passion for academics got me into Vanderbilt University, from which I acquired my BA in 2009. I studied every subject I could but found most pleasure in political science and sociology. In addition to these fields, I have expertise in grammar, essay composition, and a variety of creative arts. I also have teaching knowledge of the basic maths and sciences. Overall, I have about three yea

I have always enjoyed working with children and have spend the past 13 years working with them in various settings. I have found that every child learns in their own special way and it is my job to work with the child, figure out what teaching approach works best, and help the child be able to adapt that approach to every subject on their own. I believe integrating subjects allows students to see all areas of the material being taught. It is my goal to help students understand how they learn best, how they can use tools to help themselves understand what is being taught, and ultimately gain confidence in themselves. As a recent graduate earning my M.Ed., I have learned different techniques for teaching to different learning styles. After receiving my BFA in studio art, it became my mission to help others not only learn how to create, but to believe in themselves as well. I also beli

I am a college graduate, and have studied both stateside and abroad. This has given me the opportunity to work with colleagues from all over the world and given me a greater perspective on education. I have earned my Bachelor of Arts degree and am currently working towards my Masters. Because of my masters work I am proficient at writing in a formal research style. During my undergraduate years I tutored elementary kids in math, reading, and art. I have enjoyed working with students who have all been at different levels in their education. I have found that every student learns differently and as a tutor in order to help them succeed you have to be able to quickly adapt your technique to fit that child. I have learned patience is key, it may take trying a few methods before finding one that benefits the student the most. I do believe though that most people learn best through experience,

Because I have an extensive background in Psychology, I have a strong understanding of the learning process, as well as many other factors that affect it. I focus on each individual child's strengths and use that to bring their weaknesses up to a higher level. Through patience and encouragement, I believe that most children can experience dramatic improvements in their abilities. I am able to explain complex ideas clearly, in simple terms that are understandable. Then I expand on what the child already understands until they have mastered the more advanced concepts. I greatly enjoy the excitement, challenge, and reward of enriching a child's life through education. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Southern Illinois University. This gives me a broad knowledge base in many educational arenas. I have tutoring experience with the program "Second Chance Saturdays" for high

Students respond to my combination of structure, creativity and enthusiasm. Positive reinforcement is a key element to my teaching style. All students need encouragement and maintaining a positive attitude at all times helps ensure success. I enjoy seeing the progress of students and take pride in knowing that I took part in the process. While tutoring elementary school students in Detroit during college, I discovered a passion for teaching. Since then, I have worked with students of all ages and backgrounds. My experiences include teaching English abroad, coordinating an after-school program, mentoring at-risk teenagers and working in preschools. In addition, I have worked as a counselor at summer camps and volunteer with the Big Brothers program.

I love helping children build the foundation for learning through reading. It is so rewarding to see that those who once struggled in reading can progress to a much faster reading speed and reading level. I am passionate about each one of my students and I believe each student's learning ability is different. I believe that each child is given equal opportunity that each student has the potential to do whatever they dream of doing. I believe my patience, personable, and fun loving spirit will help each student reach their full potential. I graduated with a bachelor of arts degree and had the opportunity to work with young children while employed at my university's child development center. This allowed me to gain experience with children and learn different cognitive abilities of a diverse group of youngsters. I have also worked with elementary students who are overage for grade and need

I believe the best environment for growth is a safe environment. My teaching style communicates clear expectations while at the same time allows room for the growing pains of learning new information. Encouragement and positive reinforcement can go a long way in motivating students. Some people learn best through seeing, some people learn best through hearing and some people learn best through doing. I want to creatively incorporate teaching styles that best fit the needs of my students. I am 31, a Nashville native and recently married. In 2001, I graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in Social Work. In 2008, I earned a Master of Divinity by studying theology and translating ancient Greek and Hebrew. This required writing many research papers. Last year I lived in Turkey, located north of Egypt. Now I enjoy being back in Nashville. Over the last several

As my experience at college drew to a close, I found that the most rewarding activities I participated in were centered on education. I am a lifelong learner, and I love participating with others in the learning process. I set a relaxed atmosphere that fosters the students drive to ask questions and seek answers. I am comfortable with taking control of a session and speaking throughout (Lecture) or allowing the student to come up with their areas of difficulty and ask questions (Synthesis). I believe that educators frame the future of the young people they contact, and I want to help others as I have been helped in the past. I also would like the opportunity to learn by doing, and see if this field is the one for me. As a college student, I was convinced early that I would become a doctor or scientific researcher. About halfway through my college career, I decided that while science was

Teaching is gift and I enjoy being able to make a difference in a child's life. Even though my experience only comes from substitute teaching, our goals for students are similar to a permenant teacher. I don't just believe all children can learn, I know all children can learn. I am more than happy to help your child achieve in any subject that they are lacking in. Being a mother myself, I understand how important education and academic success is to a parent. I am a compassionate, patient and understanding individual who's goal is to provide your child with the best education possible. As a recent graduate, I am eagered to learn all that I can to reach the highest level of experience in education. I have earned a BS in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Communicaton and Psychology. This form of degree has given me the ability to gain understanding in journalism, marketing
