Elementary Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sheridan, TX

I like to teach by first explaining the concept, having a book or something the child can keep and study out of, provide practice problems to the student, and last but not least help them with their homework. I have tutored since my 7th grade year at the public library and have been tutoring ever since. I want to expand my groups and help kids success in school no matter what subject it is. I attended a math academy when I was little, Kumon, and now I want to create something like that. I have had a lot of experience with kids because I have volunteered at many hospitals around in Katy, I am a member of the Red Cross Association, and I babysit occasionally.

I am a firm believer that all children can learn when provided with the toolls necessary and an enriching environment. I pride myself in letting students learn through self discovery while teaching them independence and confidence. At LSU and throughout my years of teaching, I was provided with numerous opportunities to work with children in many different educational settings.  Not only have I been exposed to different grade levels but I have also taught gifted as well as special education students.  Working with these children allowed me to understand the whole child and taught me the importance of

My teaching style is one in which I strive to engage students in the subject by both instructing and challenging them to think on their own. I also strive to accomplish this goal in such a manner that the student experiences the fun that is a part of learning, but one that also emphasizes the importance of the learning process as well. In all of my tutoring and teaching experiences, I communicate how critical good study habits are: self-discipline; finding a quiet place to study; punctuality; attention to detail; following the rules; etc. As a person who holds both a BA and MA in English, each with concentrations in writing (creative and technical, respectively), I am qualified to, and have for several years, tutored English language studies skills, including composition, grammar, punctuation, and reading comprehesion, to students from the third grade through college. I have also taught
