My teaching methods are structured and developed for each individual person. I believe that there are many ways to teach a student. The key to successful teaching is finding out how your student learns; auditory, visual, didactic or with a combination of learning styles. I use a combination of visual and didactic aids in my lectures. I encourage an environment where questions are welcomed. I want students to not just learn the material but understand it as well. I try to make learning fun and relate it to things that they may find interesting.
I am a college graduate that has spent the past 8 years working in health and science education and development. During this time I have not only developed educational programs for low literacy and bilingual groups, written grants for government funding for Health educations, but I learned how to educate people of all types of literacy l ... read more

I have served as a substitute teacher in Hayward, CA for 1 1/2 years. I worked as a tutor for Learning & Loving It in San Jose, CA for 3 years. I served as a tutor and teacher of adult education in Loganville, GA for 1 year. I am currently on the substitute teacher roster for the Vicksburg School District, and I have been so for two years.
I first introduce myself and get to know a little about the student I am tutoring. Then, I establish a baseline of what they have learned so that I can direct my attention to their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, I get into the material with the student and show them how and why the material is important and applicable in the world in which we live.

I graduated cum laude from Jackson State University. I am currently pursuing a master's degree in mass comm/english literature.

I have a love for education. This is my gift by teaching others what I have been taught throughout my educational life as well as professional life. I am easy going, patient and considerate of others. I don't beleieve in the verbage "slow learners", we all can learn if taught appropriately. Teaching is one of the most rewarding profession in my opinion.

I have 5 years experience as a classroom teacher, teaching all subjects. I have taught both upper and lower elementary students. In that time I have worked with many students one on one to improve their skills in reading, basic math, language arts, social studies and science. I have helped students develop study skills,and learning and organizational habits to improve their performance in school.
I enjoy teaching children and helping them understand new ideas. As a classroom teacher, I am aware of the significance of determining each child's learning style and working with them in ways that will compliment that style. I am patient, encouraging and considerate. I believe all children can learn and be successful. I want to teach your student the importance of being a life long learner, and show them learning can be exciting.

I believe that the logic and rules of math and science subjects allows comprehension for virtually all students. I also understand that people process and learn information differently, therefore I cater my teaching approach to the individual to maximize their learning potential. I find what the student understands and build upon that for greater comprehension. I also try to teach problem solving skills and critical thinking by allowing the student to guide the decisions, redirecting when necessary. Many times students just need the confidence in their abilities in math and science to succeed in those areas.
I have experience tutoring and teaching in many different areas. Because of my educational background in Chemical Engineering, I have a very strong foundation in upper level math and sciences. I have tutored students both privately and through a sponsored program at The U ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I grew up in Spain as my parents were career missionaries. From the time I was young, I have enjoyed teaching and have done it whenever I could. In 13, I taught my younger brother to read. All during high school, I tutored students. When I went to college, my part-time job was to be the assistant to the Spanish professor and to teach in the language lab. I taught for many years in schools overseas, in Nicaragua and Spain. In the U.S. I taught Spanish for 2 years in Piney Woods and 3 years at Clinton High School.
It is my belief that all have the right to receive a thorough and complete education. Children who enter the system at kindergarten should be surrounded by an environment where they can achieve their maximum potential. Their curiosity should be stimulated at a young age, and that along with an organized and developed program, will aid these students in ... read more

As a graduate of Mississippi State University, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I had the opportunity to intern in the West Point Public School District where I taught fourth grade and kindergarten. I learned valuable information while teaching that will help me throughout my teaching career such as how to plan and lead effective lessons, how to differentiate instruction, and collaboration to create an creative learning environment.
I believe that each child should be treated as a unique individual and should be taught in the same way. The atmosphere of the classroom should be one that supports the emotional, mental, social, and physical being of a child. Children should be educated in their least restrictive environment where proper guidance is given. I will make sure your child is exceeding beyond his or her expectations to become successful.

My motto is simple: In all of your getting, get an understanding. I truly belive that every child can learn. Even a child with a disadvantage still comes with an advantage because they are always getting some help. It also depends on the child also. We must both be focused on the task at hand and together we must tackle it until it is thoroughly understood.
For the last past six years I have enjoyed my students. They never cease to amaze me with all the many things that they can grasp when you try. I was an assistant in JPS. Tutoring was my job. I have also tutored other grades up to fifth. I really enjoy kids and I always wish the best for them. I have also had to be the actual teacher for the remainder of the school year and did grades and end of the school year things due to the teachers' emergency leave.

I have worked with youth and at-risk youths between the ages of 5-17 for over nine years. During the course of the years, I have tutored students in all required subjects, such as, math, science, reading, and language arts. I have also had the opportunity to work with students with essays for student council positions held within their high school. Over the last three years, I have also had the opportunity to assist with ABE/GED pre-testing, as well as teaching basic computer skills, character education, and life skills workshops to youths and young adults.
I have always had a passion for teaching anyone who needed my assistance. I feel that everyone has the ability to learn anything that they put their mind to doing. Over the years, I have also learned that no one learns skills at the same level. Knowing that, I take my time and learn what interests the students that I'm helping a ... read more

As as 2010 graduate, I was determined to work for and earn my bachelor degree, not sure what area I wanted to study. I do not hold a degree in the education field, but I have always held a position whether being a Teacher Assistant, or Substitute Teacher. I have learned with great extense and patience how to work with students making sure they are striving to reach for the stars. Children are my passion, therefore, I must put every piece of energy I have into their lives by being an example, a great educator, and making sure nothing but positive words are being spoken from their mouth.
I hold a passion for and driven to put all the energy I have into children, no matter what their current learning style is.
