I truly believe that every student has the opportunity to perform well academically. While school comes naturally to some, others need someone to come beside them to help them learn. The best educators create an environment where students discover and explore. I will strive to create that environment by asking questions that allow students to come to answers for themselves. I also have the personal qualities that are necessary to tutor successfully. I understand how frustrating struggling academically can be. I can be patient empathize with students. I love seeing individuals succeed. Learning not only provides students with knowledge, but also can provide the self-confidence that will allow them to be successful in life.
As a recent graduate from Clemson University's Calhoun Honors College, I deeply believe in the importance of education. I graduated high school with a hi ... read more

I love that look that you get from a child who gets what you are teaching them. When the light bulb turns on, and you know that they understand the process. That's what makes it all worth it. My teaching style is that with enough work, any child can succeed. They just have to know they matter to the teacher. I am a hands on learner myself so visual tools help me to teach the concepts to students.
I am a graduate of Clemson University, with a BA in Biological Sciences. I have always enjoyed biology since my first AP class my Junior year of high school. After college graduation I worked for six months in a cancer research lab, which gave me the knowledge of "real life" science and how that effects our lives I have worked as an after school and summer camp counselor which has helped me learn how to relate to them, and teach them material they are learning in school.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that true education requires your child to synthesize the material, not merely memorize answers. As your child's tutor I will seek to provide them guidance and instruction to help them solve problems and learn material on their own. Not only will your child learn the material, but my goal is to teach them how to learn so that they can achieve success not only with a tutor now, but long into the future.
I believe education is primarily about learning, not merely making a grade. As I applied this philosophy in college, I realized that where true learning occurs good grades follow. I completed a bachelor's in accounting summa cum laude in 2009. In addition to my major focus in finance and business, I completed a minor in History and took an extensive number of English courses as well. The broad liberal arts framework for my college curriculum taught me not only specific subj ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring and working in classrooms for the last 5 years. I have worked with students from the Elementary level to college aged in all subject areas. As an Education major, I am familiar with the most recent methods of teaching. I feel very comfortable working in all subject areas with the exception of calculus and physics.
Teaching is truly a passion for me. I love working with students of all ages. I believe that all students have it in them to succeed academically. I also believe that mastery of basic skills are essential to success, so while working on current studies, I also like to go back and fill in the gaps of knowledge that may be hindering a students progress.
