Visual Kinetic Hands On Creative/ Activities
I am currently a college student majoring in early childhood education. Previously, I attended culinary school. I graduated my high school in the top 5% of my class with a 4.0 GPA. I love to help others, and I have been tutoring and helping my three younger sisters throughout school for several years. I believe in hands-on type learning, as well as visual and activity-based studying. Making learning fun is definitely my preferred style of tutoring. I also can help proofread papers/ check homework/ etc.

More About This Tutor...

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn.
With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals an ... read more

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents.
For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My first goal is determine the level the student is currently at with the particular subject and work my way forward from there. I determine exactly what the student doesn't understand and attempt to break it down for them as much as possible until it's clear.
My experience includes 2 years as a Youth Counselor for the City of Tallahassee (1999 & 2001). I am also the oldest of 5 children with the age difference ranging from 6-16 years, so I've had the responsibility of assisting my siblings with school work. I currently continue to provide assistance as requested by my parents or siblings. I recently began mentoring a prospective accounting major who is in her 2nd year of college and I provide help with her studies. In High School, I took accounting courses as elective and participated in FBLA (a business club) and won first place in an accounting competition (2000). My work expe ... read more

I have expectations that the student wants to learn and to achieve. I have all the time in the world for those who make the effort. Having lived overseas on two occasions and having run several businesses in many environments, I have a diversified experience base to relate authentic examples to the educational setting. I believe the best learning comes from active participation rather than passive observance.

I am very much a hands-on instructor. Long ago, I heard the Chinese Proverb “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.” These words embody my personal teaching philosophy. I utilize a varied and balanced set of teaching strategies that will meet the needs of all types of learners. First, I determine the student’s preferred learning style (auditory, visual, or kinesthetic) and tailor my lessons accordingly. I then try as much as possible to make our lessons as relatable to the student’s likes and interests. Let’s face it, when the work is difficult and doesn’t relate to anything practical… what’s the point? When I am able to incorporate real-world examples and applications, students respond and things start to click!

A Little Bit About Me...

After nearly completing my four years as a Natural Science major at Johns Hopkins University, I realized I no longer wanted to pursue a medical career. It seemed almost too late...to late to choose a new path. However, I had the opportunity to get involved in a MSEd program at Baylor University. Through this program, I earned my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction, while also beginning my teaching career. I have been teaching on the elementary level for the last five years (grades 1, 3, and 5, all subjects). I am certified in Texas, Tennessee, and Georgia, for grades Pre-K-5.
Because my background is in Science, I have a passion for teaching students in a hands-on, real life way! I think it's important for kids to have the opportunity to discover and then make connections to the world. I believe this type of learning helps children physically see how things work, which ten ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have loved to teach every since I was a young girl playing school with my younger siblings. Since that time I have observed several different teaching and learning styles. As an instructor, I try to incorporate several different teaching styles to accomodate the students in my class. I set high expectations for my students and equip them with the knowledge to reach their full potential. I believe education is the key to success and everyone should have equal access to the opportunities education can provide.
Currently I am a organic chemistry lecturer at a local college but I have always been an advocate of education. I have a PhD in organic chemistry and a BS in chemistry. My background has allowed me to understand a range of topics from math and science to English. I have tutored students for over 11 years and I recently was a mentor to a high school student for two years.

I've always enjoyed teaching. I taught in different contexts, worked with children and adults in classes, camps, and corporate training sessions. I taught French, dance, and worked as a tutor while preparing my degree. My ability to work hands-on and with labs makes it easier for any student to apply the acquired knowledge from theory to practice. My experience with non profit organizations made me realize that knowledge transmitted is always a plus. Anywhere in the world knowledge transmitted is a value acquired for life not only for the students but also for the teacher.

I believe that every child has a potential to learn. My approach to teaching my students is to patiently study their strengths and to help them exploit those strengths to achieve academic excellence. I show my students how to perform complex tasks using various easy-to-understand methods and subsequently encourage them to independently solve similar problems by using and adapting those methods. I have found that students respond the best to learning if they can achieve confidence in their abilities.
My early fascination with animals led me to major in Animal Biochemistry and Nutrition with a minor in statistics for my first degree in the University.
