My comments on tutoring Science : My major is in Cognitive Psychology with a double minor in Biology and Applied Anthropology. I have taken a broad range of courses and feel competent in my abilities to tutor most elementary and middle grades fields of science.

My approach is multimodal as all students are different. The one consistent element is that of an active learning environment. Passive memorization and repetitive tasks are not part of my repertoire as both have usually been unsuccessfully attempted by those seeking tutoring. I request a lot of participation from the student. Development of critical thinking is also a fundamental part of the tutoring environment. This skill alone will help students through all academic courses (and life in general). Although my expectations are high, we begin by building a firm foundation of study skills and habits which work to make these expectations attainable. My background knowledge in human cognition has given me invaluable insight into how we encode, retain and recall information.
As a returning adult college student, I have both classroom experience and life experience. My academic bac ... read more

I have tutored fellow classmates in the past throughtout middle school and high school. Although I am not certified to teach, I have taken quite a few teaching curriculum courses while attending North Carolina State University. I have the ability to teach and accomodate different learning styles with various age groups from the Pre-K level to high school ranging from elementary students to adults. Subject matter in which I am willing/can tutor includes but is not limited to: math, English, social studies, science, etc. With such skills, I have been asked by my local church pastor to develop tutoring programs.
My teaching style is based on reading then reviewing. At that point in time ask questions to see if the student has grasped the information being given. If not, answer questions then clarify. When reviewing information it is important to make sure the student knows reaso ... read more

My philosophy of teaching is based on my threefold belief that the overall mission of an educator is to promote positive learning, ignite enthusiasm for learning, and provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Teaching methods should be inventive, interactive, student-driven, and receptive to a variety of learning styles. This requires active participation from both the students and the teacher. The specific approaches I feel are most beneficial are inquiry-based and experiential learning. This engages the students in tangible exercises that encourage optimal learning and retention.
I have a B.S. in Marine Science and Biology,as well as a chemistry minor. My experience is summarized below: SoundWaters, Environmental Educator: Responsibilities included teaching environmental education programs alone and in team-teaching situations to students in preschool th ... read more

As the youngest of three children, I always wanted a younger sibling and became the busiest baby-sitter in my town throughout middle and high school. I truly enjoy working with children and young adults and have exceptional patience and empathy for young people. I am very free spirited and enjoy having fun while showing students the amazing world of learning. Each child is different and I believe you must first build trust with the student and establish a relationship while studying their working habits and learning style.
Although new to tutoring, I have worked with children extensively and participated in peer tutoring throughout middle school and high school. I have an excellent rapport with children and young adults and my knowledge is not limited to the area of foods and nutrition. I have excellent creative writing skills as well as a very strong knowledge of language, ar ... read more

I am a very linear thinker, which is most helpful in the sciences. I present the material in an organized, logical manner. I love microbiology, and I try to make it as "fun" as possible. It is a very important subject and touches many aspects of all our lives. People have different learning styles, so I incorporate visual and hands-on work in addition to interactive exercises. I realize that microbiology can be a difficult subject to comprehend, so I do my best to take away the mystery and explain in detail in order to help the students grasp the subject. I expect the student to do his/her best, and I will do everything I can think of to help them master the subject at hand.
I began teaching as a graduate teaching assistant for medical, dental and pharmacy students. In industry, I was an instructor to newly hired sales representatives and I taught microbiology at a local uni ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Because every child learns in a unique variety of ways, I incorporate a wide range of learning methods into each lesson. Tuning each component of a carefully crafted lesson to the needs of each individual student - is a juggling act that is challenging and rewarding to me. Intuitively supporting learning’s synergistic nature, I enjoy the daily balance of presenting new principles, while skillfully solidifying what has been previously learned.
I am an honors graduate with a degree in Special Education and dual certification in Elementary Education. I am currently working toward a masters degree in learning and technology. My teaching experience prior to entering public education included teaching in an international school (Qingdao, China)and teaching in private schools in the United States. I am experienced with helping students to reach their academic and personal goals reg ... read more

Having earned a bachelor's degree in Theology and Apologetics with superior academic achievement,I have challenged myself academically, and developed excellent writing and argumentative skills. I have written extensive research papers, and successfully defeated many opponents in classroom debate. I served as a tutor for Homeland Park Elementary for one year during my college career.
There have been numerous studies showing that different types of learning exist, and it is my belief that each individual student needs to be taught through adaptive teaching methodologies. I believe that everyone is unique, and each student needs to develop their own style of learning. It is the job of the educator to discover those different styles and implement a teaching method that is most advantageous to the student.

While earning my Masters in Accounting, I voluntarily tutored Undergrad students that were earning their Associates or Bachelors in Accounting. The students were enrolled in the local community college (Central Carolina Tech) as well as the University of South Carolina. I have earned an Associates, Bachelors, and Masters which all have concentration in Accounting.
I tutor based on the individual's learning needs. I have encountered some that were visual learners ad everything had to be drawn/written out. I have also tutored students that can have me explain it and they grasp it easily. My teaching style changes according to the needs of the student because not every one learns the same. I do believe Accounting is a complex field and the student has to have an interest in the field to truly be successful in retaining what they are taught.

A Little Bit About Me...

My philosphy of education is that children learn through real-world experiences and tapping into their interests will foster their educational development. Another key factor in helping students achieve academic success is assessment and observation of individual learning styles and multiple intelligences. Honing those positive features in students will inspire and motivate their learning to new levels. I believe strongly in problem-solving and hands-on learning to promote higher level thinking skills. I feel children have just as much to teach as they do learn, and that cooperative learning will benefit them not only academically by teaching themselves and their peers, but also socially to promote and build self-esteem.
I have a BS in Elementary Education and a MAEd in Curriculum & Technology. I am a K-6 certified teacher in North Carolina, and I have taught second, third, and six ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a master's degree in elementary education and five years of classroom experience. While working at a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence and at a Title One school, I have instructed students of diverse backgrounds and ability levels. My goal as an educator is to develop the potential of my students through effective teaching and to instill a sense of accomplishment in them.
I recognize that students have many different learning styles. I believe in teaching to the students' multiple intelligences to ensure that their individual needs are met. I enjoy incorporating the use of manipulatives and relating content to everyday life.
