I was a teaching assistant at North Georgia College and State University for three years. I assisted with laboratory sections of biology courses and taught them in the event of a professors absence. I provided department funded tutoring services during that time as well. I have taken the GRE and Biology Section of the GRE and received excellent scores on both tests in only one sitting. I have also coached 4H horse quiz bowl and horse judging teams for several years working with elementary and middle school age children.

I am a 2012 graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, graduating Summa Cum Laude with a B.S. in Chemistry and concentration in Biochemistry. I have worked as a TA for the sophomore Principles of Biology (II) course as well as the Organic Chemistry Laboratory Course. I have been a tutor & academic mentor for Organic Chemistry since the summer of 2010. Additionally, I was an MCAT tutor & problem solving group leader for my University's MCAT course during the 2011-2012 year. I scored a 37R on the MCAT (PS - 14, BS - 12, V - 11) and a 2260 on the SAT ( Math 770, Verbal 730, Writing 760). I initially started tutoring because of my love for the subjects, and as I worked I understood that one has to be able to cater to different approaches to understanding various topics.

I have 28 years of teaching experience and 10 years of work in businesses. Combining the two areas enables me to relate concrete examples for my students. Since retiring I have had some experience tutoring a Filipino gal who was anxious to get into the School of Nursing at Kennesaw College as well as with a student trying to pass the ASVAP to enter the military.

A Little Bit About Me...

The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from without. To me, the process of asking questions and allowing the student's curiosity and intelligence to reach conclusions is far more effective than one-sided lecturing. I am endlessly creative, coming up with myriad examples to illustrate concepts.
In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test pre ... read more

I have worked as a math and physics tutor for several years at the high school and undergraduate university levels. My past experience has been primarily in introductory physics courses and upper-level high school math including trigonometry and calculus, but I am excited at the possibility of tutoring at any level. I was a President's Scholar at Georgia Tech from 2004 through 2008, and I recently completed master's degrees in physics and medical physics at the University of Pennsylvania. I am looking for summer tutoring positions before I begin a doctoral program at the University of Chicago this fall. All levels of instruction are welcome!
I believe every student has the ability to learn any subject matter, however difficult it may seem. Effective instruction is strongly linked to effective communication of material, in a way that each student can understand personally. I strongl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an honors graduate from Kennesaw State University's Education Program, I have learned some of the keys to being a successful teacher. I tutored students in math and science throughout my college career, so I feel very capable of tutoring math and science through the high school level. While being certified in Elementary and Early Childhood Education and having many experiences in an elementary classroom, I am currently teaching Special Education Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies in a Department of Juvenile Justice School to students in 4th-12th grades. My education and experiences have prepared me to tutor in all of the basic subjects in every grade level from kindergarten to high school.
I believe that teaching needs to be fun and engaging for students. If they can touch and experience what they are learning, they are much more likely to remember the key conce ... read more

My goal for all my students is to achieve success in their learning and to recognize in themselves that they are capable of that success. With that in mind, I seek to lead and guide the students into not only discerning the answers for themselves, but to learn the method by which they can continue that success on their own. I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to not just teach to each student's learning strengths but to also help them strengthen those areas in which they struggle.
Even before I became an educator, I had the heart of a life-long learner. I believe I was called and gifted to be a teacher and to try to impart a love for learning to my students. I have a BA in English and French, and an MA in French Literature. In my 18 years of teaching experience, I have taught a wide variety of subjects (English, Spanish, French, Social Studies, Math) in mostly small s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The most important things in achieving academic success are the establishment of goals and discipline in achieving those goals. I help students to become involved in their own educational experiences by exploring different teaching and learning methods that best fit the student's needs and personality, creating their own goals over a period of time so that they can keep track of their own progress and by providing students with patience and encouragement so that they remain focused in achieving their own personal goals. I also push students to think outside of the box and challenge themselves rather than limiting themselves only to standards of their age or grade- appropriate level.
I have acquired a wide range of skills through my experiences in teaching and tutoring. For four years I worked with a dyslexic child to improve his reading skills. I used a variety of approaches in ... read more

I'm a recent college graduate, soon entering into a Secondary English education program. I have extensive experience with academic writing and research during my undergraduate career. I have engaged in informal tutoring with my peers and have gained excellent writing skills in particular. I am particularly skilled with one-on-one communication and will be developing my teaching skills this coming year through the MAT program at Agnes Scott.
I concentrate on each student's unique strengths (as opposed to weaknesses only) in order help students their own skills. Students must feel personally invested in their education, and I hope to be able to instill that in all students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love children & teaching. Where there is a will there is a way for all children to learn. My motto is "The more you learn the more you know, the more you know the further you go," and I firmly believe in that. I believe that kids can have fun learning if you make the material interesting and somewhat tangible. When children have to sit without any interaction with their teacher or other students it makes learning a whole lot harder. If we as a society teach our children well, and make that extra effort to be sure they are learning, the world will be a totally different place. When a child doesn't understand they feel inferior, that is where I come in at. I go above and beyond to make sure every child I tutor or teach gets that extra attention needed.
Even before graduating from high school I began tutoring kids younger than I. I love children & I value education, therefor ... read more

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 student to become a "learner" themselves. I have included descriptions of both styles below for you to understand their applications. Demonstrator or Personal Model Teachers who have a demonstrator or personal model teaching style tend to run teacher-centred classes with an emphasis on demonstration and modeling. This type of teacher acts as a role model by demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply the ... read more
