I first of all love children students in general whether children or adults. I love educating and tapping the potential in them to produce a positive educational experience. I am an upbeat energetic teacher who works hard to create a classroom that fosters learning as well as hands on engagement and active interaction between student and teacher. It is super rewarding when students learn and master the skills they need to become an expert in the subject content that they are embarking upon.

Hi! One of the amazing things about learning a new language is that it's a process. Students who tutor with me gain the confidence to embrace that process and progressively exceed their expectations. Learning a new language in the classroom can be a difficult task, but with the right guidance, students strive beyond what they believed was possible. By assessing their strengths and weaknesses, we are able to construct a plan together that will guide your student to success, no matter where they are in their language journey. Patience and repetition is the key to growth!

This tutor earned three degrees over the course of her career-- first she earned a BS degree in secondary English education from East Carolina University, with which she taught high school English for two years before returning to graduate school at her alma mater, ECU, where she then earned a Master's degree in technical and professional communication (English department), with which she contracted in industry with the IRS, HUD, and then ATF while earning her Ph.D. in African American literature, which was earned on full scholarship at Howard University. After teaching 16 years in the university setting, this tutor married and had two daughters and then joined them in the public school system, teaching at her older daughter's high school where her daughter graduated in 2022. This tutor is currently teaching in an alternative school setting, helping students who have fallen behind in academics, teaching in an accelerated academic program. This tutor tutors in reading, writing, grammar, and style. This tutor has always loved English and earned three degrees in English due to her love for reading and writing poetry, with which she published an award-winning collection based on the topic of her dissertation, William E. B. Du Bois, entitled: BROAD SYMPATHIES IN A NARROW WORLD: THE LEGACY OF W. E. B. DU BOIS. Concerning her teaching philosophy and tutoring style, her method of teaching is constructivist, which follows in the path of Dewey, Piaget, Vigotsky, and others. She avoids some kind of knowledge "out there" independent of the learner, especially in reference to poetry. She believes that the value in education is learning to think for oneself, to think critically. She avoids an authoritarian approach to teaching and seeks reflective activity, as Dewey terms it. She endeavors to be progressive and uses poetry in her classes to engage students to think about the process of composing, for the language of poetry is highly structured and condensed, and reading it effectively trains students to reflect analytically as well as critically. Outside of academia, she enjoys long walks for exercise with sprints of running when her body cooperates. She would like to return to her love for bicycling and swimming. Most of all, she loves teaching and seeing the light bulbs turn on when students finally understand complicated concepts. She currently takes classes at the local university to strengthen her teaching skills, as required by the state of Alabama and the Alabama reading initiative. She always endeavors to be the best teacher that she can be, for teaching is what she feels called to do.

I am a graduate of East Carolina University, where I earned a B.S. in Mathematics with a Concentration in Statistics. I have tutored many subjects, including Biology, English, and accounting, but the bulk of my experience over the last six years has been tutoring middle school through college level mathematics and statistics. I have spent the last two years working on an M.S. degree in Statistics at The Ohio State University. At OSU I have taught undergraduate students through the leading of recitations, tutoring students in the statistics tutoring lab, as well as teaching a lecture section to over 200 students.In my many years of working with students in math and statistics, what I have learned is that everyone can be successful if they have the right teacher. Not everyone learns the same way, so it is important for a tutor to be able to explain the same concept in several different ways in order to find the method that works best for the student.I truly love helping others learn and grow. My favorite subjects are Statistics (of any level), Algebra I and II, Calculus I, Pre-Algebra, and Pre-Calculus, but I enjoy any opportunity to work with a student. Nothing is more satisfying than having a student who I've worked with tell me that they feel confident in their abilities. I hope to have the opportunity to help you gain confidence and subject mastery as well.

I love languages and teaching students about Math and Spanish. I have experience working with kids of all ages and adults. I was a high school Spanish teacher for 4 years, have a k-12 teaching license for Spanish and almost a masters in the subject. I hope to work with you soon!

As a tutor, I truly enjoy helping students discover their strengths and reach their academic goals. I know that every student learns differently, so I make it a priority to adapt my teaching style to fit their individual needs. My goal is to create a welcoming, supportive space where students feel comfortable asking questions, tackling challenges, and trying out new ideas. With personalized guidance and feedback, I work to build their confidence and independence as learners. Seeing their progress and growth is always rewarding, and I'm committed to continually refining my approach so they get the best learning experience possible. More than anything, I want to help them succeed in school while also developing a genuine love for learning that lasts beyond the classroom.

I have been an educator for 12 years and a lover of literature my entire life. As an educator, my favorite thing is to help someone understand how to find joy (or at least comfort) in reading and writing. I believe that these skills open the entire universe to a person, whether it be in a fictional realm or in the boardroom. I received my BS in English Education at East Carolina University in Greenville, NC, earned National Board Certification, and have recently completed a MS in Technical Communication through North Carolina State University in Raleigh, NC. I have spent my career working with students of all levels, including EC, Honors, and AP. I have also spent much time tutoring students to be successful on the verbal portion of the SAT. In my free time, I of course enjoy reading, but a close second would be traveling. I love a good road trip, and I'm also trying to expand my travels - hopefully going overseas soon!

As I work with you, I always ensure the concepts and vocabulary are clear. My tutoring style sometimes consists of working through practice problems together. I try to find games and other activities when helpful. At times, I encourage students to utilize free, trustworthy sources to help explain complicated concepts. This leaves room for every learning style, whether you prefer video, picture, text, or lecture. A little bit about me, I graduated from East Carolina University with a major in Biology and a minor in Coastal Studies.

After working for six years as a Systems Engineer with the Department of Defense, I recently decided to switch careers in order to pursue a calling in Medicine. This decision required a return to academia to complete a litany of core science classes required for medical school.
