A Little Bit About Me...

Education, teaching in particular, gives individuals the opportunity to give back what they have received. It is communication on a broader level than just simply putting forth information to whomever chooses to accept it. I started my career in education before I set foot on a college campus, through a peer-tutoring program in my high school. This experience allowed me to work with severely disabled peers learning functional skills for independence. Since then I have worked as an aide in emotional/behavior and multiple-disability middle school classrooms, as well as LD-resource, ED self contained and SC occupational diploma program. In addition I have earned a degree of distinction with the National Forensic League, been name a scholar-athlete in South Carolina and a host of other accolades in scholarship. I have experienced both urban and suburban school settings and have had inc ... read more

My comments on tutoring ACT : Verbal only

Caring, concerned, earnest, fun, relaxed
Over twenty years success in teaching, including homeschooling my own four children, has made me an exceptional tutor. I love children, care about their lives and academic progress, and have the experience of classroom teaching to help me relate to students' needs. I am equally at home in the classroom, in groups, in person one-on-one and online.

Unique, powerful fusion of counseling and teaching.

I have 10 years of full-time counseling experience and 25 years of part-time teaching experience. As a counselor, I work in a completely individualized way with each student- sometimes emphasizing tricks, techniques, timing and speed reading, sometimes emphasizing content.
28 years of tutoring for SAT. 15 years for ACT, GMAT, GRE, LSAT, etc. I have devised unique guessing strategies for multiple choice tests that by themselves have significantly raised students' scores. I have gone to Paris, France, all expenses paid, to do an intense 2-week SAT prep session. I love what I do- every child is a unique individual to me, and tutoring is what I am born to do.

More About This Tutor...

I believe in good classroom management and organized lesson plans. I set appropriate boundaries and expect the students to follow the rules that are set before them. That being said I try to make the learning as fun as possible but organized. I also try to bring in anything that they are interested in to make them enjoy the subject they are learning. If I can find an example in life they can relate to that will help them learn something I will find it and bring it in. I love working with children and really love math.
Although I have been self employed for the last 6 years, I went back to school last year to add Science and Math for middle school to my certification. I passed the Praxis for both of those subjects spring of 2010. I was not able to get a full time teaching position this year. I went back to working for myself but would love to tutor. I have tutored for 3 yea ... read more

I absolutely enjoy working with students of all ages. I place a high value on education because there is no replacement for this key component in a student’s quest for success. I have several years experience as a volunteer coach and understand all too well the delicate balance that exists between teaching, encouragement and constructive analysis. I am a hands-on teacher and firmly believe that clear instructions unified with connected repetition are vital for material comprehension. All students can not only meet, but exceed their academic expectations when given the right tools combined with positive reinforcement
I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BS in Information Science and a BA in Political Science. My graduate work is in Policy and Management from the College of Information at the Florida State University. I have been a substitute teacher for Hillsborough County, Florida ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love working with all children. I believe all children have the capability to learn math and put it to use in everyday life, but in a variety of methods and understandings. I like the elementary range of math because I can use all the math knowledge I have acquired through my own education. I am available to help each child find academic success no matter what exceptions they bring to the table. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in a constructivist approach to learning. I do know that appropriate surroundings and learning experiences can help all children meet their potential. My job is to enhance learning beyond the classroom, yet take the classroom teachers skills and expand on them to benefit your child.
As an graduate of Illinois, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned these degrees, which has enabl ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I attended Furman University on a full academic and golf scholarship where I majored in Health and Exercise Science. My strengths during school were math and science subjects. Because I attended a Liberal Arts school we got a very well rounded education so I also have experience in subjects such as literature, reading, religion, economics, political science, computer science and history. I've played professional golf for the last 8 years and currently work as a public speaker talking with high school athletes about the college recruiting process. This new position of working with high schools kids got me interested in tutoring and it allows me the freedom of being flexible with my schedule.
I have learned a graet deal through speaking to high school athletes and their parents about the college recruiting process. I've learned how to relate to the kids on their level and attention s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a knowledgeable, experienced and well-trained educator. Students appreciate me because I am firm but fair and down to earth. Co-workers and administrators have described me as caring and creative. I have become highly effective in teaching strategies during 25 years of teaching. My formal education began in New York. At the time, writing was my first love, yet I had a strong desire to teach as well. I combined both passions by majoring in English with an Education minor, and earned my B.A. in 1984. I began my teaching career in New York and after relocating to South Carolina in 1998. I completed a Masters degree in Education at Columbia College, 2002.
My teaching style is one where I combine the approach that best suits the individual’s personal learning style with proven sound educational best practices. I have had successes with motivating students who usually do ... read more

I have extensive experience teaching students of all ages. I was a middle and high school math teacher, and have experience in curriculum development and teaching in Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Algebra II, and Geometry. I have lived abroad and speak Spanish fluently as well.

I have taught in a variety of environments, from one-on-one to teaching a class of 37 eighth graders at once.

More About This Tutor...

Use of teaching materials is very important in my teaching. There are methods for teaching children to read and to do math that use materials sold by companies. One way to find out about teaching materials to use is to ask people who have home schooled.
I started substitute teaching in September 2001 in the Greenville County School District in Greenville, South Carolina. The Greenville County School District uses a computer system to contact teachers to substitute in schools which starts calling substitute teachers at 5:30am on the school day. I taught K-12 all subjects and special ed. In September through December 2005 I substituted at Duncan Elementry School in Duncan, South Carolina K-3rd grade. January through June 2006 I substitute taught at Easley High School in Easley, South Carolina all classes.
