Making Learning as fun as possible.

I’ve had many years of practice in the tutoring field dealing with the fact that my brother has a learning disability. He likes to have fun and thinks that leaning is boring, so I try to make learning as fun as possible. Then I have my student on student tutoring when the students tutor each other. I think its better that way because most students don't really pay attention to their teachers but they take it better when it comes from another student. Sometimes its better because something you understand they may not understand and when you explain it to them then may be they will understand it a little better. Basically what im saying is that some kids learn better from other kids.
I prefer to have a fun learning environment. I think you learn from hearing, seeing, and doing.

Anyone CAN learn ANYTHING...I promise. :)

Currently a junior at the University of Memphis, I am seeking a Bachelor's degree in English. I love to write, and have always been the dictionary for people, so my concentration is in Creative Writing. I have very high marks in all my English classes, (transcripts for which available upon request) and am currently 12,000 words into my first book. I have tutored children of many ages in the past, many of whom suffered with audio/visual difficulties such as dyslexia and other reading/comprehension difficulties. Each child who applied their tutoring lessons to their in-school learning excelled in their school work/grades.
I believe that happy people not only learn faster, but they also retain more. Far too much of our kids' lives are spent cooped up indoors. Therefore, I like to take an open-door approach to learning and like to schedule as many sessions as possible out of the house/ ... read more

Individualized Assistance

Today’s fast paced school curriculum overwhelms an alarming number of students, essentially hindering their progress as a whole by failing to make sure one concept is properly learned before the next is taught. But I make sure that they are comfortable with each and every problem before encouraging them to move on to the next. This way they retain essential information that will adequately prepare them for review and lessons to come. They will be grateful to see an improvement in their grades and you will be grateful to witness their positive outlook towards reading, mathematics, writing and study skills.
I have helped a number of adults & children improve in math, reading, writing and study skills. Generally a client should meet for three hours a week for best results. Tutoring in most subject areas at all grade levels from elementary through college is available. I can work ... read more

My comments on tutoring English : Has a good understanding of the English Language.

During these sixteen years I have worked in many different capacities. I am able to adapt to the various teaching styles.
I have worked with the Memphis City/ Shelby County school system for 16 years as a substitute teacher. I have managed to substitute in all grades to include Pre-K up to the twelth grade. I am able to go in read, and follow the lesson plan in order to carry the class on in the teachers absence. Also, I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse group of students.

My comments on tutoring English : Second undergrad degree in English

I have a very interactive teaching style in which I want the student to ask me as many questions as possible. With literature how they interpret the material is just as important as mine. So, I hope to help the student express their vision of the material in their eyes so that they can reach a their conclusion with as little help as possible.
I'm entering my final semester at the University of Memphis and I would like to offer my experience as a novelist to others that need help finalizing college essays, senior papers, or those interested in journalism and creative writing. I have been published in Black Magnolias literary magazine and finished my first novel that's ready for publication in early 2013. I have a passion for creative writing as well journalism and public speaking. I can help any student that needs help editing their papers for proper grammar, or needs an understandi ... read more

I am a junior English major and Religious Studies minor at Rhodes College. I graduated from Harding Academy ('09), a school well known for its strong English department. The past two summers I have worked at Harding's summer camp as a counselor for first and second graders, so patience is definitely a trait that I have come to learn and appreciate. Being an English major, I am strong in areas concerning reading, writing, and grammar. Also, I play football for Rhodes College, and I try to display the work ethic I have learned on the field in all that I do.
Reading and writing are, and have always been, enjoyable for me. However, I know that a lot of people do not feel the same way. My goal is to show students that if he or she can get past the miring details that oftentimes come with English, it can be pretty dang interesting. Since revealing the fun parts of English is my go ... read more

Education is a tool one can use for a lifetime.

I am a teacher who believes that each student learns differently. I am known to mix traditional teaching with responsive classroom teaching. The responsive classroom is one where there is more engagement and is more student focused rather than teacher focused.
I have a total of 6 years experience in teaching. I have experience teaching in a private christian school setting, a public high risk school setting, as well as a public optional school setting. I have taught Kindergarten (all subjects) and 3rd grade (Math). I am certified to teach K-6 but am highly qualified by the state board of education to teach Language Arts and English up to grade 8.

My teaching style will depend on your child's needs. I have found that the easiest way is to make notes and practice problems to go over, then allow them to show me what they can do. With writing, I prefer that your child do a rough draft before meeting with me so that I can show them what they are doing wrong and how to fix it.
In high school, I was frequently the one that people came to for help. It was then that I realized I was extremely good at teaching. My senior year, I spent all day helping four different math teachers, one of which was frequently absent. In order to keep her class from falling behind, she had me make notes and go over practice problems with her classes. I spent quite a bit of my free time working on notes and worksheets, and giving step by step instructions to other children. In addition, I tutored other people who were having trouble for extra money. I al ... read more
