I find it important to identify the needs of each student and develop a customized tutoring strategy. Providing several examples allows the student to convert the information in the most useful manner. Whether a student is a visual, auditory, or mechanics based learner, I utilize a teaching method that will provide the best source of memory recognition. When students realize that they can succeed in a subject, regardless of the obstacles, they will establish confidence in their abilities. I hope to inspire and share my passion and methods for learning with as many students as possible.
Throughout my academics, I have found a natural ability to excel in all mathematics and english related courses. For example, I hold a track record of nearly straight A's, in all mathematics courses. Over the course of several years, I have led and coordinated tutoring sessions for fellow classma ... read more

I am a patient, friendly, and fun individual. Like I tell my own children, I believe that teaching and learning is a two-way street. It's important for teachers to engage students, to help them discover, to guide them in their learning. There's a good deal of back-and-forth initially to determine a good learning program, and it takes constant evaluation to make sure it works. I encourage students to ask questions and speak up when they do not understand. It can make all the difference in a learning environment, but it's the kind of difference I seek to achieve.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having been devoted to the welfare of children and families and valuing education highly throughout my life, I find tutoring a satisfying occupation. After vounteering my services for many years, I attained formal degrees in education, psychology, and counseling, with very high GPAs. I taught psychology and sociology for several years and have also tutored K-college individually and in groups for many years.
Recognizing that each person has his/her own learning style, I emphasize "application" of material learned. I do this primarily by providing examples of information taught and require my students to do the same. My approach to teaching is to create a friendly environment with positive expectations to enhance the learning experience.

My Teaching Style varies according to the needs of the student(s) with whom I am working. I believe in using the style that helps students learn. Some students need more direct supervision than other students to reach goals and objectives. During my career I have successfully provided tutoring to students ranging from elementary school through college, utilizing Teaching Styles to include the Formal Authority, Personal Model, Facilitator, Expert or Delegator Style. In the past, all of the students that I have provided individual or group tutoring have reached established goals and objectives.
My career in tutoring and teaching have been both diversified and rewarding. I have been able to help students develop educationally ranging from elementary school children to college seniors and young adults.

I love working with children. When i was younger I had a job helping my aunt with her daycare business. I have five nieces and nephews, six siblings, two god children and one Daughter. I have always been a patient woman and Nurturing comes natural because I am a mother. I too, believe that all children can meet their potential. They all have to be in an calm secure environment. Children also have to feel comfortable around there peers and teacher in order to learn. My goal is to not only teach children, but also to help build character. Children are the future; they should be intelligent and be a good person.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a great deal of passion for teaching. When educating a person of any age, I make it my goal to create an experience that is as intellectually fulfilling for them as it is for me. I encourage questions at all times and push students to not only think about what they are learning but why they are learning it. Whenever we learn we should not only learn new information but we should improve upon the way we learn and the way we look at the world. I always consider it a privilege to work with someone in order to help them obtain such an achievement.
In the course of my education and professional career I have always found myself attracted to positions where I am passing on knowledge and skills to others. During my education at JMU I learned various skills in the area of scientific research, mathematical analysis, and the extensive writing skills that allow one to express their acc ... read more

The basis of counseling lies on allowing the child to develop at his or her own pace. This attitude, combined with my martial art background which focuses on self-discipline and self-control, allows me to create an environment which is nurturing but also motivating to the child to keep trying harder. I have worked with all kinds of students, from exceptional education, to gifted and talented students.
At the College of Charleston, I mentored at a local Elementary school. My studies focused on behavior and learning, as well as a focus on neuroscience and the biological basis of behavior. After graduation, I was employed as a behavioral therapist for children with autism. At Virginia Commonwealth University, I earned a masters in education with a focus on counseling. I mentored at Moody Middle School, as well as gained a years worth of counseling experience at a local elementar ... read more

As a tutor, I review previous test, quizzes and work with the student to see where the "disconnect" lies. Most students are very capable, they just need someone to explain the material in a way they understand. Some students are visiual learners, other kinetic learners or they learn by doing. As I understand how the child learns and ask questions to see "why" the student chose the particular answer, I am able to see the problem and use a different teaching style for tutoring purposes.
I was a tutor for the School of Business and Economics in Elizabeth City where I earned by BS in Business in 2003. I tutored beginning through Intermediate accounting, Principles of Marketing and other business subjects from 2000-2003. I was a formal tutor for one year and a student tutor for 2 years. I currently tutor family members, friends and church members in all basic elementary through col ... read more

I was a corporate trainer for 3 years, followed by 12 years serving as a software instructor. Prior to and throughout this time, I also taught Sunday school and Vacation Bible school, teaching everyone from 2 year olds to adults. I spent one summer as a reading tutor, and many of my software classes have been 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. I have volunteered as an SOL coach and in Head Start classrooms.
When I teach reading, I convey my love of reading. When I teach math, I convey the logical beauty of math. When I teach other subjects, I stress the importance of the material and how it is relevant to everyday life. In Sunday school this week, we combined with another class, so there were people there who aren’t usually. Several of them thanked me and let me know how much they got out of it. My response is that I am a teacher. It’s who I am and what I do.
