Educational Solutions through Experience = Success

I use a variety of teaching styles depending on the learning styles of the student. I urge students to become independent learners. I use a strong line of communication with the parents and urge the parents to become more involved with their students. Respect for the students is my first step in tutoring. I make suggestions for study skills and encourage the students to develop a love for learning.
I have over 25+ years of teaching & educational experience. I am a retired teacher. I have tutored over 20 years in addition to my classroom teaching. The past two years I've been a private tutor and homework coach. I have taught in Atlanta and City of Decatur Schools. I have administrative experience in Gwinnett County Public Schools. I have taught students in all socio-economical levels. I have taught a wide diversity of students.

Patience is my Virtue....Creative Writing and Reading Tutor

I have over ten years experience in the Montessori environment as a lead teacher. In addition to Montessori academics such as Math and Reading, I have been trained as a Literacy tutor. I have taught over a hundred children to read in my ten years in the classroom and tutoring reading and writing is my strength. I have published in newspapers, newsletters, and maintain a blog on Blogger.com that has almost 3000 viewers since I created it in April of 20ll. Creative writing and poetry skills are showcased in my blog Soul Warrior Awakenings.
I am a patient and compassionate tutor and I have experience breaking barriers in learning for children who are stuck because of anxiety or blocks to reading, writing or mathematics.

Never stop learning!

I truly believe the strength of my teaching/ tutoring style is my devout compassion. I am able to exemplify extreme focus, patience, motivation and due diligence because I ultimately care about the success of the students I tutor. My initial step in the tutoring process is to perform a thorough analysis of the students comprehension of the subject. Once I'm aware what the student understands and don't understand a unique and proper game plan is developed to reach a confident grasp of course material.
I grasped the importance of education at a very young age and excelled throughout school. Early in my youth I also developed a sincere passion for helping fellow classmates who I saw were having difficulties comprehending course material. I had a knack for connecting with students, identifying the point of confusion, and creating different avenues to reach full comprehension of a su ... read more

My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : I love to write. Every year my class participates in the creation of our own class book, written and illustrated by students. I am very secure in my writing skills. I have received high scores on writing exams.

I have been teaching and tutoring students for more than 20 years. I currently provide online as well as in person tutoring to students in the areas of phonics and reading. I am an ESL teacher for a couple of online companies in China. I work as a substitute teacher for the public school system where I live and I am also pursuing a degree in Spanish at Arizona State University. I previously taught in a small private school that I founded. The school served students in grades kindergarten through second grade and it was founded with the idea of promoting literacy through the encouragement of world language learning. I teach beginning and emergent literacy skills in English, Spanish, Arabic, and Mandarin Chinese. I have also taught in two charter schools over a period of 15 years. During that time I served as a teacher in various areas, such as Kindergarten, First Grade, PreK, and Arabic. ... read more

I start out with discussing the area of weakness with the student and then try to investigate why this might be the area of weakness. Once this is discovered, I teach the student (through examples) until they understand the topic with which they need help. Then, I observe how they perform without my guidance and see if they have learned to complete problems solo.
Most of my experience is informal with tutoring family members/church members/friends in whatever areas they were struggling. Nearly everyone was pleased with what I was able to teach them and they showed improvement. In addition to tutoring, I have also mentored. In particular, at Emory University, I have for three years served as a mentor to incoming freshmen. I have helped them become acclimated to Emory and have also helped them create plans for courses and future plans. Therefore, I am confident in my tutoring and men ... read more

Teaching the way that my students learn best.

I believe in using real life situations, scenarios, and actively using technology. I like to use life lessons to enable my kids to realize that I am humble person, and I truly want the best for them academically as well as student. I incorporate peer discussions, peer tutoring, exit slips out the door, and class discussions to actively engage my students through the content and the process of learning. In doing so, my plan is to get my students to open up about what they know about the content and share it with their classmates. As a result, my students are more engaged in demonstrating content and standards understanding because I allow my students to demonstrate their learning through the way in which they learn best.
I have teaching experience with both general education and special education on the middle school level as well as the elementary level through my private schoo ... read more

Learning never ceases; so, why should you?

My teaching style is a mixture of strict and lenient. I try to form a connection with students and apply that to my teaching method (i.e. incorporating a similar hobby in a question in order for the student to understand the material better). I expect my students to give me and the other students respect- never speaking while others are speaking, no disruptions, ect. This method of teaching has shown effective and a fun learning environment. I base my curriculum around the importance of reading. Reading is the easiest and most effective way of obtaining knowledge and using it in the world.
I have had the honor of working with many kids in regards to a variety of fields. My experiences taught me responsibility, patience, the importance of learning and education, and much more. The various teaching opportunities I have been fortunate to have have impacted my social and educational li ... read more

young tutor that works well with children

I have 5 nephews and a daughter of my own shop I'm great with children. I was an honors grad and I also became a certified nursing assistant before I even graduated high school. I'm great in public speaking and have had many speeches myself with an audience of over one hundred. I do know the main signs as well as the alphabet for sign language because I have a brother and sister whom are deaf. Also I have always been great in mathematics. I keep an open mind to the various ways a student may learn because everyone is different.

Ms. Phae- "Motivating Kids to Make the Grade"

My teaching style is one that fosters a love for reading and I encourage my students to develop reading comprehension skills that will make reading not only more fluid but also more enjoyable. I use a variety of "text to" connections that will engender students to make personal and real-world connections to their reading. I emphasize organization and independent learning that will help students develop not only long-lasting literacy skills but also life skills.
I have four years of teaching experience for both private and public programs as well as in traditional and online settings. I have experience teaching Secondary English/Language Arts, specifically at the middle school level. I have inclusion and special education classroom experience working with students with special needs, including ADD, ADHD, Autism, and Asperger's Syndrome. My experience is mainly in urban settings ... read more
