A total learning experience

I believe every student can learn, and as a result incorporate a variety of learning techniques to address a variety of learning styles. I wish to develop students in the four language proficiencies (reading, writing, listening, speaking), and as a result I use a lot of hands-on activities which involve movement and engagement on the student's part. At every opportunity, I try to create a multi-sensory experience of language learning for my students, so that they may fully "taste" various languages and cultures.
Since coming to the Charlotte region in 1996, I have had a wide variety of experiences as a language teacher, having taught in public, private, homeschool, summer school and tutoring situations. Although my primary focus is teaching French, I have also had the opportunity to equip students in Spanish I and II to continue with their language studies. Passionate about pro ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Business Intelligence Analyst that uses computer science skills in the real world on a daily basis. My main interaction is with ABAP [SAP] and Excel. I have studied Japanese for 7 years and have traveled throughout Japan. I am originally from England so I social studies have always grabbed my interest with an underlying passion for computer science. I enjoy converting the daily activities to metrics and observing changes in groups based on measurable and immeasurable features. I want to teach children about real world applications for what they teach in school and help adults refine their skills to be utilized efficiently in the workplace.
I observe the learning style of my students and teach them accordingly. I know that one style does not fit all so it is about refining that style for each person so they get the most out of each lesson.

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 reasoning behind subject matter so that they are understanding logic and not just memorizing information. In subjects that invloves math such as probability, chemistry, or statistics, I would do a few examples followed by letting the tutee working a few problems.
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 r ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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

A Little Bit About Me...

My experiences as an educator encompass a fairly wide circle. I have a good amount of knowledge and experience in both athletics and academics. I have coached, taught and tutored students for nearly seventeen years. As an English teacher I have the ability to teach and tutor all aspects of reading and writing skills. I also have worked with students on test taking (primarily the SAT's), study skills, organization, and various other pertinent skills.
I believe that it is my responsibility to cater and adjust my style to that which works best for the student with whom I am working. In a classroom setting this can be especially difficult, but with tutoring it is much more do-able. I have a lot of training as a Results Coach, which stresses working with the strenghths your client provides you. The exact same process applies towards my students.

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 regardless of any challenges.
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 ha ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.
