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

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

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

I have experience teaching at a university as a Teacher's Assistant in chemistry. The classes would meet before a test and discuss the analytical techniques of the course. I am currently teaching an Anatomy and Physiology course for nurses looking to pass the RN liscensing exam. My approach to teaching is centered around the particular goals of the student or students. Clearly, a course centered around a liscensing test will focus on the material that will be on that test. Otherwise, teaching has to be catered to the student's ability to learn the material and focus on the weakness in understanding the concepts involved in the material. I am currently teaching anatomy and physiology courses to students training to become licensed Registered Nurses. The courses focus on basic science principles and the relationship of these concepts to human function and structure, clinically.

There are a variety of skills and methods one may employ to be a good teacher. First and foremost one needs to be knowledgeable and patient. I have a decent education but have continued to improve myself by continuing to read a wide range of subjects for all of my adult life, this plethora of material has helped to instruct students in many areas. More importantly I am patient; learning can take an extensive amount of time with some students. It cannot be rushed, and so one must be able to drill and inspire the most basic material into the most dull of people if one is to do well as a teacher. Lastly, I believe I have both an aptitude and enjoyment for teaching. It has been an easy career for me as I take real pleasure when I realize a student or a class has mastered (or even understood) a subject matter. I have a variety of experiences which have helped to shape my life as a teac

As a member of the Golden Key Honor Society in Education at Queens College in Flushing, NY I excelled at all the subjects I took pertaining to Elementary Education. I have a full awareness of the importance for structure and flow within an essay. Voice is sometimes overlooked, but is equally essential in representing the author's conviction to the subject matter of their work. After teaching for 25 years, the first and most important element of interaction between a student and a teacher is one of mutual respect. The student wants the teacher to listen to their needs and concerns, and the teacher wants to be respected for his/her wealth of knowledge through experience. This is built through patience and understanding. A personal relationship is also helpful in tutoring, more on the level of a parent or adult friend.

As a professional educator, I strive for "excellence without compromise". I believe that learning is about opening each person toward recognizing the potential within, and then taking steps to actualize that potential. My ability seems to be that of communicating and inspiring others to grow. I have combined my academic background with my other passions, music and writing. Thus I bring the outlook and freshness of a lifelong learner to my teaching. Some of the areas I tutor are:language arts, reading comprehension and critical thinking, arts, essay writing, social studies, psychology and sociology, SAT writing/verbal strategies and GRE. In addition to my academic and arts connection, I work with the concept of "learning how to learn". Essentially each child that I tutor I endeavor to assist them in learning what type of learning style that he or she possesses. Every person uses the m
