My comments on tutoring Elementary Math : Earned Bachelor Degree in Early Childhood Education from University of Memphis in 1991. Taught in preschool from 1992 until 1993 in Concord, CA. Taught my own children from Kindergarten through 12th grade.

After graduating from University of Memphis, I moved to California and taught in a Montessori preschool until beginning my own family. To be able to work at home, I managed a small 24 unit apartment complex for 4 years. After my third child, I began homeschooling my own children in grades K-12th grade and have for the last 10 years. I plan to continue until all have graduated.
My teaching style includes more than one style because different children learn in different ways. For example, a child may learn by doing(I would use the demonstration-performance method). Another may be an auditory learner where I would use the lecture method, on a child's age level of course. While a different child may be a visual learner and in that case I would use many visual aids as well as do a lot of independent reading. Without testing, I would not know the child's exact learning style and therefo ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a Geoscience student at Mississippi State, I have gained extensive knowledge in the Earth Sciences, Meteorology and Mathematical fields.I have earned a bachelors degree in Geosciences (Earth Sciences) which has enabled me to strengthen my understanding in all areas of science and math. I have tutored high school students in Math and general sciences. I have had extensive writing skills and computer skills also.
I believe that every child has a chance at being the person they have always dreamed of becoming. Sometimes those children just need a little boost of confidence. I gained great confidence through my mother in college and I would like to pass on her encouragement to others who may need it. I believe every child can reach his or her goal if only they can get the correct guidance. Anyone can be a mentor for a child. I strive on being a great mentor for anyone who needs enc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

When I have "tutored" fellow colleagues and students in the past, I have learned that one must be creative in their teaching so that every person can learn in their own way. Creativity is the key to helping a person understand, even playful games have their place in teaching. I have always been a team player and have excellent interpersonal skills. Also, I will be taking the Praxis I tomorrow in preparation of teaching in the fall. *(In the above question on years of experience, the "20" years are of teaching/tutoring of colleagues and fellow students, not tutoring in a formal sense.)
Through several college degrees, I have taken extra courses in English; I have enjoyed learning the correct way of writing, proper grammar usage, and how sentences are successfully crafted. The area of "words" fascinate me, and I have continued improving my knowledge of the English language over ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My educational experience includes that of a Master’s Degree in Business Administrator with a Bachelor Degree in Accountancy. During my years in college, I volunteered regular to tutor students who needed additional help due to the complexity of the subject matter, physical disabilities and/or mental disabilities. In my high school years, I graduated Valedictorian from Heritage Academy and took several AP courses in my senior year such as Calculus, Physics and English. During my down time, I volunteered at local children houses with tutoring activities.
I worked in the private sector for six years which brings great experience in my style to real life perspectives. I truly believe in servant leadership which I brought this style to the 200+ employees underneath me. My style is to show the student once on how to complete the problem in question then allow him/her to finish the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love children and I love teaching them. I believe in an individualized style of teaching that caters to a child's individual needs. Because I love teaching, I am a patient and caring teacher. I believe every child can learn, and implement a way of learning around that belief. I like to make a difference and "see the light come on". When it does, I know I have done my job.
Following my graduation from USM, I had many experiences teaching a variety of children from many cultures. Having taught in a DODDS school in Karlsruhe, Germany I was exposed to the German way of teaching. My first year of teaching was in an inner city school thar offered many challengs. I believe my experience teaching children from diverse backgrounds prepared me to handle any situation in the teaching environment.

I use a multifaceted approach to teaching. I engage my students through experiential learning, service learning, multimedia lecture, discussion, and demonstration. I work at drawing out my students in class by creating a comfortable secure learning environment. I am approachable and available to my students. I teach actively. I walk around the room, make eye contact with all students, and act out the activities of organisms and molecules. I frequently encourage questions from the students and typically get quite a few during a lecture from various students. I also teach interactively. I ask the students questions regularly during class.
I have a total of 5+ years in Education. I am currently a licensed Math teacher, where I teaches math classes to high math students. I am continually involved in professional development activities. I believe that it is essential to stay abr ... read more
