Ready to make a difference in your child's life!

I just completed my first year of teaching in North Carolina. I taught first grade and will continue to do so in the upcoming school year. Before becoming a teacher, I was a substitute teacher for grades K-6 in New York State. I was also a teacher's assistant for one year in a special education classroom.

More About This Tutor...

I always had a passion for helping kids. I always wanted kids to be the best they can be in class and outside of class. Growing up, I didn't have the help that I needed. But now I want to help the kids who need the help. I used to live in chicago and I help kids with math any subject that was needed. I just want to be a great example and help others to succeed in the classroom.

Journalism is one of my top subjects! I have a B.A. in Journalism with over ten years of professional writing experience for newspapers, magazines and Websites throughout the country on both a full-time and freelance basis.

Every student learns differently. Therefore, I may teach differently from one student to the next depending on how they tend to process information and learn. Each student is a case-by-case basis. Instead of forcing each student to adapt to my teaching style, I adapt my teaching style to each student's needs.
After earning a Journalism degree in 2005, I spent four years as a full-time sports reporter at two daily newspapers in Pennsylvania (The Record Herald from 2005 to 2007 and the Public Opinion from 2007 to 2009). In 2008 I was honored by the Pennsylvania Newspaper Association with a Keystone Press Award for feature writing. Since 2009 I have worked as a freelance writer covering things such as the Carolina Panthers, Durham Bulls, Team USA baseball, Nationwide Tour golf, aviation, high school basketball and more. I currently cover high school sports on a freelance basis for the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I prefer a hands-on approach when possible. I lik to help the children relate to what they are learning in order to help them remember it.
I was a straight A student throughout school. I am currently a high school senior, so the information is still fresh in my mind. I have spent a few semesters as a tutor and volunteer assistant in a local elementary school. I enjoy working with children and being able to help them succeed in school, because without school, the future is bleak!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have found that the best way to teach students is to have them do, not listen. Most students at any level are very unmotivated to learn if someone is lecturing at them or working at a pace that is above what they are able to accomplish. I tailor my lessons to the students needs and provide ample opportunities for practice, revision, and remediation when necessary. I want each student to feel a sense of accomplishment every day and I strive to help each child with whatever it is they may need.
I have been a teacher in the Hoke County school district for 3 years now. I taught 5th grade for one year, then moved to second grade for the past two years. I have taught all subjects and have worked with students of various levels and abilities from Kindergarten through High school. I have had training in all areas of education through my undergraduate and graduate degrees, and have ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been helping students excel in basic math, Algebra, writing and other English skills for six years. My experience includes working with students who have failing grades, a lack of interest in the subject, language barriers, and/or general mild learning disabilities. My Bachelors degree in Communication along with my work towards a Masters in Homeland Security has provided me a solid educational foundation for leading other students.
When working with students I like to focus on their personality, learning style, and specific issues within the area of study they are struggling with. It is important to realize that each student responds and learns differently. Some students need a firm approach while others need to feel relaxed and unregimented to perform. I also recognize that students learn differently. I want to discover if a student learns best by hearing, viewing, or do ... read more

While working with at risk students, I was faced with challenges that ranged from behavioral, health, educational, as well as family dynamics. With that experience I have learned to be fluid with your teaching approaches with the students. During my time with the students I noticed that some were able to learn by a verbal approach and others were more visual. In spite of the approach I noticed that it was important that you hold the attention of the child by making it exciting as well as be patient and considerate of their feelings.
While working at Excel Personal Development, I had the opportunity to mentor students ranging from elementary school to Middle School. Over the five years with the organization I have worked with at risk students that were diagnosed with mental diagnosis. While working with these students I was able to assist them in developing life skills, English ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

It is very fulfilling to me to collaborate with students at all levels in figuring out their strengths and needs. I enjoy helping students experience success. I am a creative and patient teacher and coach. I believe learning occurs when the student is ready and motivated, so I work hard to find readiness and motivation. Some students do not learn well in the classroom environment for various reasons, and I am prepared to address their individual needs and differences.
I have a passion to make a difference in the world, and a drive to help others succeed. My life's work has been education. I have a BA in English, an MEd in English Education, and an EdD in Higher Education Leadership. I have taught college English for many years, and I have taught and coached corporate leaders in leadership for many years as well.
