More About This Tutor...

I strive to make a difference in my students' lives by teaching them accountability. I use my sense of humor, but try to maintain a routine and strong communication. I believe in thinking outside the box. All children are capable of success if there are people in their lives who believe in them and support them. Education is so important. It is the only way to truly make the world a better place.
I tutored for 8 years before getting involved with the AVID program at the Middle and High School level. Concurrently, I worked with University Instructors teaching SAT Prep, Math and Reading Buddies Programs, and a summer school enrichment program. After obtaining my Provisional license with three endorsements (English, Journalism, and Speech Communications), I began my career as a full-time teacher. As a first-year teacher and yearbook adviser, I won trophy class with the VHSL. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy instructing others, especially through the use of analogies and personal stories. Growing up in a very different, rural environment often provides me with various examples and personal situations that are often pertinent to the subject at hand. In addition, I actively attempt to connect the subject material with non-academic subjects, such as musical interests or athletics, two areas which I also enjoy. I understand the concerns students have with being assisted by a tutor and attempt to make that process as fulfilling as it is necessary.
As a college graduate, I decided to pursue graduate studies in the field of Historical Archaeology and History. A recipient of a B.S. in Anthropology/History and a minor in Biology from Radford University, this new focus is a continuation of my concentrations from my undergraduate career. I am fluent in US and World History as well as fund ... read more

A year ago, I had the honor of substituting as an Assistant Teacher with an amazing kindergarten teacher. I learned then that she maintains her respect and passion for her career by following this mantra: "I need to understand my students come to me in the morning having already experienced some kind of morning of their own at home. I don’t know what that morning was like, but I can tell when it’s been a bad one. I have to be able to engage each of them, no matter what their morning was, and welcome them to the safety of my classroom. I want each of them to feel safe here, so that they can be excited about learning.” To this day, I follow and believe that mantra and pledge to make it work in all of my educational efforts.
In 2007, I graduated from Penn State with a plan of attending graduate school for Creative Writing. I was devastated when I received three rejection letters from ... read more

I want to help and make a difference in each student that I tutor. I like to reach out to all of my students. I learn each of my students name and have them see that I want them to well. I also feel that students should be given assignments to work on during class and not lectured the entire time.

I presently teach at a K-12 private school for students with learning differences. I have taught students in all grades, K-12.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children and helping them meet academic goals. As a tutor my job would be to find out how a child learns best. Learning styles can include auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Children also need engaging,interesting, and varied activities during their learning experiences. Another key point would be to identify strengths and weaknesses and to build a plan based on that information. I feel that all children can succeed.
I have been teaching middle school science for the past eight years at a local Middle School. My endorsement is in biology. For the past four years I have been enrolled in a master's degree program in reading at ODU. This May I will graduate from that program. My goal is to teach reading and work with struggling readers. I am also qualified to tutor biology.

More About This Tutor...

My most recent rewarding interaction with kids has been been the result of functioning as a mentor for the LC Bird High School robotics team. I've have been able to motivate many general students to join the “robotics geeks”. I find that all students have something valuable to add to the team if they are just approached and guided appropriately and offered respect. I can connect with each student on some level, whether it be academics, sports, science, or just humor. I have always been amazed at the impact individual interaction can have on a students performance. I particularly strive to make learning fun. This is accomplished by turning learning “problems” into recognizable learning experiences.
For the bulk of my academic and professional career I have mentored or supervised colleagues or post-doctoral fellows in the natural sciences. While I have obtained academic train ... read more
