I am patient but firm. If a student isn't willing to put in a 100% effort then I will not waste my time. I have always gotten exemplary grades from anyone I've tutored. I teach each student differently, some are more visual, or auditory, or hands-on, and I adjust my methods to better benefit my students. Bottom line: I will work hard for you, and I expect you to work hard for you too. I have always written, and I have always loved doing it. The same goes for reading. I have tutored various class mates through college, and have also worked at a children's enrichment center (I am currently employed there) where I teach basic reading and writing. I am also currently editing a friends novel. I made the Dean's list two years in a row, graduated with the two highest literary awards under my belt, and I have been published in the Equinox and In My Lifetime.

After graduating from high school in 2003, I began to work as a substitute teacher in 2004 for Sheridan School District. I continued working for Sheridan School District as a substitute teacher until around 2008, when I was about to graduate from college. From the fall of 2003 until the end of the summer in 2006 I attended Arkansas State University, where I won first place in the 2003 Freshman Writing Competition. I transferred to Henderson State University in 2006 to finish my education. I graduated from Henderson State University with my Bachelors Degree in English in December of 2008. In the spring of 2009 I took a Masters class while working at a Golf Pro Shop in the Hot Springs Village and in the summer of 2009 I started the non-traditional teaching program within the Arkansas Department of Education.

I have a strong constructivist teaching style: I do my best to connect a student's prior knowledge and experiences to new knowledge in order to build on his or her experience, thereby creating a foundation for intrinsic learning. My reading lessons are technically rigorous, but are supplemented with frequent discussion to check for understanding. I abide by the principle "first accuracy, then speed." In all subjects, I strive for student mastery and maximum comprehension. While enrolled in the teacher certification program with Hendrix College, I mentored/tutored an eighth grader in various subjects. I enjoyed the one-on-one experience thoroughly and quickly returned to tutoring at Arkansas School for the Blind. During my three years of employment with ASB, I improved ACTAAP reading scores of two students with reading/learning impairments after one year of tutoring sessions from Be

I earned my B.A. in English Literature from the University of Arkansas in 2004. While enrolled in Spanish classes, I volunteered with the Amigos Program. I was assigned to students whose parents spoke little or no English and were unable to help with homework. I helped students practice for spelling tests and improve their reading skills. In my work as a recruiter, I saw poorly written resumes and implemented a program to teach basic spelling and grammar skills. The program resulted in a greater number of applicants being hired by my clients. My personal approach to learning is to instill confidence by assuring every student that he or she is smart, and capable of doing well at anything they set their mind to. Good spelling, grammar, and composition skills can be achieved by anyone; and will set students apart by providing the confidence to succeed both as a student, and throughout o

I believe we all learn in different ways, and I am always open minded in finding the best way for that student I am working with at that time. I believe everyone can achieve the highest of goals if we all strive for that success and find out a way to get there. However, most of all I hope I can leave a feeling of respect for the studies and for the people around us. I have earned a BS in Chemistry and a minor in Math. I am currently working as a chemist, so I have kept up with all the new studies that are taking place right now. I have tutored all through High School, College and thereafter. I have a real passion for learning math, all sciences, and history. I hope I can pass this respect for these studies on to everyone I teach.

I tailor my approach to instruction to meet individual needs. Ideally, all instruction (but especially personal tutoring) will conform itself to the needs of every student. While each mind is unique, encouragement and challenge cultivate excellence impartially; in light of this, I strive to create an environment that fosters excellence. My personality conveys a simplicity and enjoyment of learning that produce results - and I hope, a desire in my students for further pursuit of understanding and knowledge. This desire then, given that the efforts of the parents and tutor bear good fruit, will extend itself into all areas of students' lives and propel them forward to great things previously perceived to be beyond their reach. My experience includes private applied instruction in Voice, Piano, and Drama; substitute classroom instruction for various subjects at both elementary and secon

A native of Little Rock, I have always been drawn to the film and writing department at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. After completing my Associate's degree at Pulaski Technical College, I was anxious to begin my BA in Rhetoric and Writing at the university. Within one semester, I found a thriving writing community in the University Writing Center where I began tutoring, and eventually I became a graduate assistant for a total of about 5 years. For the past year, I have been an Adjunct Professor of Composition and Film at both Pulaski Technical College and the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, and have continued to tutor in writing and English skills. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring high school and college students, and I thrive on watching them grow to their fullest potential. I am patient and easy going and I believe in making the learning experience fun. I appreciat

I enjoy all age groups, anyone with a willingness to learn. I am very determined to help those in need find academic success. I also understand that each student is different, so the same learning technique does not work for everyone. I am currently beginning my Masters in Education, so tutoring is just a stepping stone for me! I currently hold a BS in Exercise Physiology. I have a great understanding of science, math, and general education courses. I have previous experience in tutoring, mostly in math (Algebra) and Anatomy/Physiology.
