I believe children construct their own knowledge of the world around them. They need to be active participants in their educational process rather than passive recipients. I also believe that learning must be engaging, meaningful, and fun. All children are individuals with their own unique learning styles and developmental patterns. I know that what works for one child may not work for another child, and I generally try multiple approaches until I find the one that works. Most importantly, I believe that all children are naturally curious beings who want to understand the world around them. All children want to learn, and all children can learn. It is my job to help them figure out how to learn.
I have ten years of experience working with all ages of children in an educational setting, including children with special needs. While I am most comfortable with mathematics and l ... read more

As a Strayer University graduate, I was determined to achieve the goal I had set for my life in Accounting. I have to admit it was very challenging for me because I was returning to school, after being out for 30 years, so I could enhance my education It's better to complete your education when you're younger, so I encourage any child to do so. When I started school, my intention was to achieve an Associate degree, but after I obtained it, I decided to go for the Bachelor degree. I only tutored and mentored some of my peers at school. Some of them wanted to give up, but I encouraged them to continue. I had to research and write papers for all of my classes. I also completed all the Accounting classes required my degree.
I love working with people whether they are adults or children. I have a desire for helping anyone achieve their goal for life. I know how important it is to assis ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Financial Analyst with 15 years of experience, I've worked in many different industries and have gained an in-depth knowledge of Finance and Accounting. In addition, as a Sr. Financial Analyst I've been required to communicate with all levels of Sr. Management. As a manager, I've also trained new employees in many of the positions I've held. Since I have always found personal satisfaction in helping others achieve success, I am considering a career change to teaching and I'm hoping this will be an opportunity to see firsthand if this is the next career for me.
I am very positive and motivated. Realizing that everyone does not learn in the same way I believe in tailoring learning to the individual. Some are visual learners while others may need to have something explained to them with several different examples based on their individual needs. I believe learning, while re ... read more

I excelled as a 'teaching' team leader as a student of the Business Management program at the University of Phoenix. I earned my bachelor's degree graduating with a 3.45 GPA. While taking the lead on team-based assignments, I developed a passion for teaching. Assisting others in creating persuasive essays, attention-gripping novels and intellectually researched term papers became a challenge I learned to embrace and enjoy. I tutored many fellow students during my college career in grammar, creative writing, language arts and English. I have also as a boy scout den mother, tutored elementary students in English, writing-styles, grammar, future-career research counseling, Microsoft software basics and computer keyboarding.
I do enjoy teaching and learning with elementary level children. I like to teach interactively asking students questions about the material covered during each e ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

What I have discovered about myself is that I learn differently from other people. I am the kind of person who prefers to set aside that assembly instruction manual and put together that Christmas toy by laying out the pieces in an orderly fashion. There is so much pleasure in problem solving. I learn by asking myself questions. I have little patience for mundane drills and memorization if they can be avoided. Each child is different. It is meaningless to say that a child is intelligent. There are many kinds of intelligences. Some children are more intelligent in memorization. Others are intelligent in solving problems. It is best to discover the child's strengths and weaknesses and adapt a program to each and every child.
I love learning and the precision arts such as mathematics. This has driven me to begin in a computer career. I spent almost two decades applying ... read more

As a USC graduate, I have a passion to teach and help other students to achieve their academic goals. Tutoring is my passion and as an undergraduate, I found my self always walking towards students if I noticed that they needed some help. I was not paid to do this until one of my professors advised my to work as a paid tutor. I worked a s tutor in finance, financial accounting, managerial accounting, cost accounting and intermediate accounting 1 and 2. Managerial accounting had one of the lowest pass rates but after i took over, the scales turned around. I also worked as a supplemental instructor for managerial accounting. I am currently studying for my CPA.
Teaching is my passion and the greatest teachers are those who are able to adapt their teaching styles to meet the needs for different students. I like interactive teaching because it better instils the principles explained an ... read more

My job is not to give students answers, but to push them to articulate better and give better answers. I teach not by lecturing but by discussion; together we work through problems and questions. By showing students (gently) where their thinking could be improved without giving them the actual answers, I push students to solve problems on their own. My teaching strategies were recognized with teaching awards at UVA and at UNC-Pembroke.
I have earned a PhD in philosophy from the University of Virginia, and taught at the university level at Virginia Tech, UVA, Hampden-Sydney College, West Point, and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke for ten years. During that time, I have taught philosophy, logic (including test prep for the GRE and LSAT), and composition. A chemistry minor in college, I am also proficient in basic science and mathematics. I have tutored in composition ... read more
