My tutoring style is serious yet fun, and I bring a lot of patience and enthusiasm to my tutoring sessions. Students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL, have benefited from my services.

The realization that children do well in small group instructional settings, and on an individual tutoring basis, is what I took most from my years in the classroom. My focus is to ascertain the instructional level needed, then instruct for that standpoint. I do not like busywork, but instead look for progress in the individual child. Once the subject is mastered, then it is time to move on to other subjects. The compensation is negotiable depending on the number of children tutored. I also do not set a time frame regarding instruction, as children are individuals, and their learning should be treated as such. I do not like projects, unless it not very complicated, because that would be a singular goal; this fosters learning, and teaches an individual to become broad based regarding the gathering of intelligence. This is how I was taught from an early age, especially from supplementing a

I majored in Literature at Berry College and have taught it to High school students in Fayette County, grades 9-12. I opt for making the material relatable to my students, which causes it to be more interesting and meaningful. When something is relevant, it is a lot more fun and kids are much more willing to want to learn, which is, of course, ideal. I graduated from McIntosh High School in Fayette County and studied English and Secondary Education at Berry College. I student taught for a year at Rome High School before graduating and becoming a substitute teacher in Fayette County. I have completed three long-term substitute positions, two of which put me in charge of an entire classroom with all the responsibilities of a full-time teacher. Additionally, I worked at Aloha-USA Mind Math with Elementary Students as an English Teacher and occasionally a Math teacher.

I received my degree in English from an excellent college in the Midwest. While there, I worked as a writing tutor for 3 years and was highly praised for my ability to help improve students' writing skills. While working as a writing tutor I underwent regular training. I also have a strong knowledge of APA/MLA style and can assist students in properly formatting their work according to APA/MLA standards. I'm friendly and cheerful and like to have discussions with my students about their papers and their other interests. Typically, I'll read over papers, asking questions as I go and making comments as I go along. I do like to mark on papers so that changes can be more easily made. I generally try to think of new and creative ways to explain grammatical concepts and general writing concepts if I'm not being clear. Basically, my tutoring sessions involve a lot of conversation.

I had a rendezvous with death between birth and the age of four because I lived in Khartoum, Sudan. It’s possible that I could have been one of many helpless Sudanese boys who were abducted and trained to fight in the twenty-one year long civil war that claimed over two million lives. Several years later, I recognized the seriousness of this fate and how fortunate my family was to safely escape from a tragic reality that plagued so many. We immigrated to the America seeking the American dream in a precarious combination of circumstances—we were poor, however; my brother and sister and I received unconditional love from our parents, an abundance of it. It was this love that helped me through some of my hardest childhood years and it was all I had when my family lived in a one-bedroom apartment on the Southside of Chicago. This was the beginning of several adverse circumstances that I en

Ph.D., Religion, Emory University (2013) M.A., Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (2005) B.A., History, Taylor University (2002) My career as a tutor began when I was looking for a way to support myself during my graduate studies in the Boston area. After signing on with a local company, I discovered my passion for finding better ways to help students overcome difficulties and achieve their goals. I enjoyed the challenges of adapting content to the individual needs of each student, of pioneering new ways of communicating ideas, and of working closely with parents to ensure that my efforts were effective. Sensing the need for more structure, I later moved to Kaplan. In more recent years, I have tutored independently. Perhaps the most rewarding part of the work is sharing in the success of my clients.
