Sociology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Statham, GA

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 mentoring abilities. 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 pro

My tutoring style is calm, patient, and encouraging. I have high expectations for my tutoring students. I also strive to discover how a student learns, whether it be seeing it, hearing it, feeling it, or a combination of the three. I am a proponent of hands-on learning, and believe that a tutor’s role is to be a facilitator of a student’s curiosity and achievements. Through implementing a learning plan with attainable goals based on the student’s background and individual learning style, he or she can not only successfully learn the material, but enjoy exploring the depths of the subject matter. I desire that my students have fun with their learning (creativity is key!) by providing them with the tools to achieve success.

I am a sociology doctoral student and have taught undergraduate sociology courses for 4 years. My senior faculty and student evaluations have confirmed that my teaching style is primarily interpersonal, fun, and relatable. I teach students from where they are, not where I think they should, while paying special attention to making sure they master course material. Students relate to me because, I too am a student (doctoral). Therefore, the classroom is often a space of exchanging ideas, talking about study strategies, and covering course material. My classrooms are extremely informal, but I have had extreme success with maintaining respect, eagerness, and I have even unintentionally inspired students to change their majors after taking my introductory classes. In the past six years, I have worked extensively on federally grant funding research (National Institute on Aging, National Insti

I enjoy working with children. The key is understanding that each student is unique. I pay attention to the students learning style and base my lessons on that. I believe teaching is not about someone just learning but also helping students be leaders that will be influential in the future. As a biology graduate, I understand the importance of a great tutor and good study skills. I wanted to pass these along to other students. I decided to teach for a year at Youngster Academy.

I use positive motivation with my students, explaining how subject matter being covered should relate to them and their future successes. I try to link the subjects with current events and how lack of knowledge on specific subjects can cost them either financially or impact their health and well being. For example, when I encounter a senior who is not participating in class, I give them an employment application to fill out, explaining if they have difficulty completing it, they better join the class. I graduated LSU and was commissioned as an officer in the US Air Force. I completed Transportation Officer courses on vehicle fleet management, commercial transportation, and staff logistics officer training related to airlift terminal management and operations. I also attended and graduated from the Traffic Accident Investigation and Traffic Control course. I have been a business consultan

I am a very patient individual. Each child/ person is different, as are their styles of learning. Education should be fun and challenging, allowing children to have something to strive towards, rather than settle. The key is to finding the tools that will allow you to reach the goal of academic excellence. I am a licensed physical therapist in both Georgia and New York. For as long as I could remember, I have dreamed of becoming an educator. I earned my B.S. in Biology, with minors in Kinesiology and Psychology and went on to earn my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Throughout my collegiate years I have tutored many, but as a clinician I have been involved in conducting several in-services to my colleagues.

For the previous 12 years I have enjoyed a career in education. I have taught a variety of subject matter from Reading, History, Science, Math and even Spanish for grade levels ranging from Prek to 11th. I am currently certified in 2 states for Elementary, Middle School and High School grades for Special Education and Language Arts and History. Over the past 10+ years I have tutored both privately and for agencies such as princeton review. I enjoy helping student evolve by providing a different way of receiving information and simple follow up techniques to assure reception and retention of information. I have worked with children and adults and enjoy the opportunity to encourage a student who feel that all hope is loss. We can all do better when we have the support of someone who recognizes our frustrations yet redirects our attention to smaller areas of strength that we can build on.

I love teaching all age groups. My teaching/tutoring experience has exposed me to kids from Pre-K-Grade 12. I am very patient, creative and outgoing. From my experience I know that education is valuable but it also needs determination and focus from each individual. Therefore i know that half of the job of a teacher is to teach a child, the other half is let the child enjoy learning, with this teaching style there are no limits. I graduated from one of the top business schools in Georgia. I am very driven and enjoy learning and teaching. Currently I have a BA degree in Finance and Accounting and now working towards a BS and MS program for Columbia University in NYC. I also have a extended 5 years experience in both fields working with Fortune 500 Companies. During the last 7 years I have tutored several students in Math, Finance and Accounting.

I believe in short-term goal attainment. I first assess what the student feels they know, then look at what needs to be learned and from that I build a goal-oriented task set that should result in a learned skill set. I am also very good at thinking outside the box in order to get the skill set learned and to effect "true learning" as opposed to parroted learning. I taught college-level students in the classroom and in an aquatic environment for three years. I also taught aspiring instructors on an ad hoc basis during that period. I have classroom experience with high school children in a special education setting, involving an extreme amount of patience and a willingness to find different ways in which to impart learning on non-traditional students.

I believe that anyone can turn a difficult subject into a fun and easy subject with a little help and motivation. Learning isn't always linear, sometimes it takes a little understanding and a helping hand to push through the educational roadblocks that we encounter. I bring a caring and understanding voice to those who can't always figure it out on their own. I'm a strong believer in the word "can". You can do it, but you may need a boost to get that initial understanding. Once you get that, your on your way to success. I began tutoring as an undergrad at the University of California, while completing my BA in Economics. I gained invaluable experience tutoring the Advanced English-Core class for incoming freshman on an individual basis.

I am a life long learner of many subjects including but not limited to English, mathematics, sciences & technology, and interpersonal communication. While my degree is in Religious studies, which gave me strong language and grammatical skills. I am driven by an insatiable curiosity to learn about many subjects. I spent much of my free time in college tutoring peers as well as my professors' children. I also continue to tutor my relatives who are local to Atlanta. I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be. AS far as actual teaching styles go, I am demonstrative when necessary but always aiming to be more of a delegator to allow for a s
