I am passionate to help students improve in their reading. I enjoy reading and want to help others be able to enjoy and understand what they read. It is important to me to help students build their confidence in reading to feel more confident in themself and their academic ability. As a result of improvement in reading, students may feel confident in sharing what they read with others. Improving reading may also allow students to discuss current topics and have more knowledge about common interests through reading and comprehending what the student is interested in.I have experience working with students in third grade as a reading intervention teacher during the 2014-2015 school year. Students read aloud and I followed along to make sure they said the words correctly as they read. I also asked comprehension questions while the students read to make sure they were understanding what they read. More recently, I have been a substitute teacher, and help students with their subject areas. To do this, I ask students how they are doing. I also ask what they need help with.During my senior year in high school, I earned my Girl Scout Gold Award by leading literacy tutoring at the Boys and Girls club. I had a student read and answer the questions that I asked. Students that I worked with did great at reading and answering questions from the literacy book.I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in special education (K-12) and elementary education (K-6) from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro.The subject I tutor is in reading. Reading is my favorite subject to tutor, because I feel it comes easy to me and can be interesting to learn from what the student is reading. There are always more books that can be read and knowledge can be gained from the book.I believe a teacher needs to have high expectations for the student and care for the student. The teacher needs to be dedicated to guide the student to understand what is taught. At the same time, the student needs to be dedicated to work with the teacher and persevere to understand and improve in education. Teaching is a two-way street, a give and take. The teacher and student must work together. It is not just one side that needs to put in effort for the student to understand what they are learning.My tutoring style is providing differentiated instruction. If a student struggles to understand, then I think about and implement another way to help the student understand the content. I may ask the student a question or explain to the student verbally. I may also show the student in writing what I am trying to explain this way the student may understand better verbally or through writing.Outside of academics, I enjoy going for a walk, listening to music, knitting and chatting with friends.

Academic instruction is authentic, discussion-oriented, and interdisciplinary in order to create a holistic understanding, critical questioning, and evaluation for a person to grow cognitively and spiritually, promoting the betterment of a multicultural, ever-changing world.

I am currently doing this in addition to working another part-time job so I apologize in advance for any scheduling issues.While I have not tutored professionally before I lead study groups throughout High School and College.

I'm a proud graduate of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Rhetoric, and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, where I was awarded a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. Over my eight years of teaching, I have worked with students in writing essays, understanding material assigned to them and material that they use in writing argument and research papers. As a tutor, I can help you with beginning your essays, developing them, and suggesting ways to make them better. Because my interests are diverse, I can help you move ahead with assignments in many subject areas, especially ones involving research and writing. I believe that one-on-one contact with students is important, recognizing each as a unique human being, drawing out of them interests that connect with their assignments. I work with students from a wide range of ages, all of them trying to learn how to communicate in writing and also students who are taking public speaking classes. In addition to an intense love of reading good writing, I do some writing of my own, mostly fiction and personal essays. Movies are a strong interest, too. I love seeing new places, but getting to know places right in my own neighborhood is fascinating, and I often break out my camera and take pictures of people, places and things that I want to preserve and share with others.
I am a graduate of UNC Greensboro in English, secondary education. I have worked for a variety of tutoring companies and specialize in online tutoring. As a teacher, I am passionate about helping others learn in ways that work for them.
I hold a master's degree in English from Boston College, and I have 5-6 years of tutoring experience, depending on the subject. I also teach college level writing and English.I tutor ESL/ELL, English, Writing, Editing, Grammar and Style, SAT Reading, and Literature. I most enjoy tutoring writing, since that's what I teach, and literature, since that's what I enjoy studying most.My tutoring (and teaching) style is relatively informal, since I like to make sure students are comfortable both with me and the material. I also find that a more casual setting increases students' willingness to learn and their ability to retain material. My goal is to make sure that the student not only understands the material, but is confident in their understanding, since that leads to better grades and, ultimately, a better education.When I'm not teaching or tutoring, I enjoy music, cooking, writing, watching Jeopardy obsessively, and being outside with my dogs.
I am a former public school teacher and I currently homeschool my 3 children. I have a degree in Elementary Education, and have 11 years teaching experience.

I love the English language and further love the opportunity and ability to help students gain a serious command of English. I have been an English teacher at upper level high school and college for decades and have never grown tired of nor disenchanted with helping students master the nuances of the language. I am student-centered-- finding clever and fun ways to explain difficult concepts and encourage students' positive practice of language and literature skills.

Education is an opportunity to build connections between the knowledge you already possess and the new ideas you have yet to discover. With this in mind, my goal is to help you make those connections and keep the information more firmly planted in your mind as relevant and important.

I graduated with an Honors B.S. in Psychology from Michigan State University and my M.A. in Experimental Psychology from University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I've taught college courses---Research Methods & Statistics, Intro to Psychology, and Cognitive Psychology---for over 10 years at multiple universities (Wake Forest University, Elon University, and University of North Carolina at Greensboro). One major advantage to having a background in Cognitive Psychology is that it allows me to use research-proven strategies effectively to help students learn. Although I love working with students in any context, my favorite topics are statistics and psychology because I love instilling my passion for those subjects in students. In my spare time, I enjoy Pilates, riding my bike, and spending time with my family.
I would like to be the one to help you improve academically and grow to meet your potential. I know from experience that academics can be challenging, but with the right support and encouragement every student is capable of excellence. Together we can work towards improving your test-taking skills and strategies, as well as increasing engagement by relating material to your personal strengths and interests.History and Literature are two of my greatest passions, subjects I studied at the University of North Carolina in Greensboro. Though these subjects can at times be difficult to engage with, I am confident that together we can uncover new perspectives and learning strategies that will reinvigorate your relationship to the material and improve your grades dramatically. Sometimes all that is necessary for an academic breakthrough is seeing old material from a new vantage point!I know the importance of developing a strong and functional rapport with students. During my time as a Substitute Teacher and as a one-on-one Guitar Instructor, I have learned techniques and strategies for successful and patient engagement. I will create an individualized instructional plan that capitalizes on your strengths and is tailored to your personality. So let's hit the books!
I value the opportunity to receive high quality education afforded to me very much as, in my view, education is the only means that helped me achieve independence. I am an independent and contributing citizen who has financial independence. That is the primary drive behind my passion for teaching. Basically, I hope that everyone who deserves to receive quality education will have the opportunity to enjoy that.In this information overloading era, too often we don't lack access to information. Rather, what we lack is the skill to weed out noises, lies, and falsehoods from all the information available to us. Knowing this, in my teaching practice, I try my best to inculcate a critical thinking method in my students so that they can achieve lifetime learning on their own. I will teach students how to gather information and evaluate the voracity of it, and how to apply good information to solve a problem. My goal is to help student to internalize information so that it can be elevated to knowledge, which might also be elevated to wisdom if a student knows to integrate information.

Hi, my name is Andrew Cook. I am a College Reading and Learning Association trained and certified Master Tutor, with hundreds of hours spent with dozens of students. My BA is is Theatre with a Minor in Math mostly obtained as a former Engineering Student, so I bring my communication skills and adaptability as a student of theatre with advanced skills and knowledge in mathematics. It is my fundamental belief that everyone is capable of succeeding in math, but too many are written off early (and thus write themselves off) as not having aptitude. It is my goal to bring encouragement and support to students in order to revitalize their appreciation for math, and to develop the critical thinking skills necessary to succeed in all manner of academics.
I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with Master's degree in Creative Writing with a publishing emphasis. Additionally, my Bachelor's degrees are in English and Spanish. I am a certified English teacher, and have worked extensively in education - 22 years, to be exact - helping middle school, high school, and community college students achieve their academic aspirations. I have taught all English Language Arts subjects at the high school level (literature and composition), and I am also certified to teach ESOL students, and have done so throughout my career. Perhaps my favorite topic to teach is writing, and I am a firm believer that everyone has a writing voice and style to cultivate, even if they tend to struggle in this area. I have taught in public education as well as private education venues, and have tutored one-on-one as well as small groups at the high school and college levels. I have even tutored in Spain! I would describe my teaching and tutoring style as dynamic and engaging. I work to build a strong rapport with students, and I persist in positive reinforcement techniques. I am also an extensively published writer of poetry and prose. Outside of teaching and tutoring, I love to read, listen to all types of music, watch films, travel, do volunteer work, hike, and ride my bicycle! I also love cats.
I believe that every person can get better at their task if they put their mind to it. I am a fifth year teacher who has taught both social studies and language arts at the middle school level. I've tutored at the elementary and adult levels, as well. My goal as a tutor is to help and guide students where they need/want to be. I want to know that my students understand the subject or topic at hand. As a teacher already, I know how to make connections and meaning to the topic and can help guide others into understanding, as well. I am driven to helping others accomplish their goal no matter how many sessions it takes, because that is my job.
I graduated Summa Cum Laude from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro with two degrees in Communication Studies and English with a minor in Rhetoric and Public Advocacy. I am also a part of the Phi Beta Kappa honors society. Before attending UNCG, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Wake Technical Community College with an Associate of Arts degree. I have won awards for both Public Speaking and Presentation, as well as Writing, specifically in the categories of Creative Writing, Academic Writing, and Personal Narratives. My highest honor is winning UNCG's 2024 English Excellence Award for my superior academic achievement in the Rhetoric and Public Advocacy minor. While my awards demonstrate my dedication to academic success, my time at UNCG's Writing Center demonstrates my dedication to the success of others. I completed an intensive 5-month practicum learning the history and methodology of teaching before completing a year as a Writing Center Consultant and Writing Center Student Mentor. During this time, I had the privilege of working with students from all backgrounds, life situations, and skill levels. Helping students overcome personal challenges, find success in their studies, and, ultimately, build their confidence, quickly became one of the biggest joys in my life. My philosophy is to meet students right where they are with compassion and understanding, regardless of their circumstances, and help them grow as both students and people. I also believe in the establishment of mutual respect and responsibility between tutors and their students. I do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age, or veteran status. I know that I couldn't have achieved what I did, or overcome the numerous significant personal obstacles I did, without the support of my wonderful professors and student success coaches. I look forward to the opportunity to be both your tutor and cheerleader.
I believe we're all individual human beings with individual needs. I'm here to help you meet your academic requirements and reach your academic goals, whatever they may be. I believe students looking to attend a community college are just as important and worthy of my time as those pursuing dreams of attending Ivy League schools. Education is NOT one size fits all. Let's get to know one another and put together a workable plan which will help you succeed!
Hey there! As a professor of writing at Rutgers University for twenty-two years and an author of two books of fiction, I am excited to help you with all your writing needs, from academic essays to short stories and novel manuscripts.
As an experienced educator and tutor for about 10 years, I believe in finding different ways to teach. This includes guiding students on how to think for themselves, while also monitoring their own thinking. I focus on giving power back to the student. A few areas in which I excel include: really getting to know people and their interests, using student interests during lessons, strong problem-solving, general organization, different ways to teach most subjects, and student engagement. My teaching degree is from UNC Greensboro in reading and math for grades 6-9. I also hold a Master's Degree in School Administration that I earned in 2020. In the leadership roles that I have had at my schools, I trained countless teachers in math, reading, writing, speaking, science, and social studies topics in grades K-5 for about 3 years. I have also taught and tutored students in topics ranging from grades K-9.
I believe every student can succeed with personalized instruction, clear guidance, and encouragement. With more than 20 years of teaching experience from Pre-K through postsecondary education, I provide engaging instruction in all core subjects, including math, English language arts, science, and social studies. As a Deaf/Hard of Hearing educator, I am fluent in Oral English and American Sign Language (ASL), allowing me to support both hearing and Deaf or Hard of Hearing students. I hold a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Special Education and tailor every lesson to each student's unique learning style, incorporating real-world applications, educational games, and critical thinking activities. My goal is to build confidence, inspire a love of learning, and help every student reach their full potential. Dr. Rebecca Darden-Perry, Ph.D.
My name is Mary-Anne Welch. I am a retired elementary education teacher with 25+ years of experience and, for the last six years, a High Impact Literacy Tutor in both private and public schools. I am a licensed Birth-to-Kindergarten teacher with a unique ability to guide students using developmentally appropriate activities combined with research proven literacy curriculum. As a member of the NC Education Corps I have been trained in the Science of Reading including the The Top Ten Tools for Reading Teachers by the authors of Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling-LETRS. The Simple View of Reading Model is the scientific framework that describes two distinct, equally important cognitive skills to learn to read, decoding words and language comprehension equals reading comprehension. To ensure I cover all aspects of learning to read I use various proven curriculum, Heggerty, UFLI (University of Florida Literary Institute), West Virginia Phonics, and Fundations by Wilson Language among other strategies like songs, games, edtech and worksheets. These programs are designed with sequential skill learning lessons and activities along with opportunities for me to progress monitor growth and reteach using a vertical alignment of Phonological Awareness and Phonics along with Reading Comprehension that is necessary at all stages of learning to read. I look forward to supporting your PreK to Grade 2 student on their journey to become a confident readers!
Hi there. Making art with others is my favorite way to get to know people. Learning in and through creativity is my professional passion, and I am eager to explore and discover with my students.
My background is in Athletic Training. I have a bachelors degree and a masters degree in AT. My love of sports and for the human body has led me down this path. I am a current college professor teaching a wide variety of courses in health, anatomy and physiology, and exercise science. I have recently gone on to continue my education and just completed my doctoral degree in kinesiology. I teach college students primarily but do have experience teaching middle school age students through an anatomy camp each summer. I also have 3 children in elementary school in which I am probably overly involved in their learning.As far as my teaching style goes, I love to present information in multiple ways. I often look for youtube videos on content that students don't understand, and use them instead of trying to reinvent the wheel. I also like to use images, both labeled and unlabeled. Often times it takes hearing something more than once for it to be remembered and my goal is to provide repetition but in a way that it not so repetitive. I also encourage my students to teach me. If you can act like the teacher than you know the content.When I'm not teaching, I enjoy traveling around and showing my kids different historic sites and National Parks. I think one can learn a lot when traveling and it is one way I like to teach my own children about our world, culture, country, and even math. I'm a former soccer player turned soccer mom now, but I love all sports. Because I teach anatomy, health, and exercise science, many of my students are athletes so I am able to use sports to teach concepts.We can learn from the world around us, we just need a little encouragement to get started.
I'm a writer and tutor who has spent the last three years helping students reach critical academic goals during the pandemic. I have tutored students who have ADHD, helped middle school students improve their writing skills, and have helped elementary school students learn core math skills like multiplication. I'm a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro where I received a Bachelor of Arts in English and International and Global Studies. As a language arts tutor I created writing exercises that were tailored to a middle school student's academic needs and personal interests. These activities kept the student engaged in a challenging subject. I also taught them core writing skills that improved the quality of their essays and helped them develop a new interest in creative writing. I have experience working with students who have complex learning needs. As a private tutor and learning assistant, I provided extensive academic support to two students with ADHD for two years. I also worked with a child development specialist to co-create and teach a personalized lesson plan that improved the handwriting skills of a child with special needs.
I have a strong academic background in the sciences, with a bachelor's degree in Biology and Anthropology and a master's degree in Biomedical Sciences. My education has given me a deep understanding of scientific concepts while also helping me develop strong critical thinking, writing, and analytical skills. I enjoy helping students break down complex topics into clear, manageable ideas and building confidence in their ability to understand the material. I like to focus on explaining concepts in a way that makes sense to them and connecting the material to real-world examples whenever possible. I also enjoy helping students with essay editing and academic writing. My background in both the sciences and anthropology has strengthened my ability to communicate clearly, organize ideas, and refine arguments while maintaining a student's voice. I aim to make the editing process collaborative and encouraging, helping students feel more confident in their writing skills. Overall, I strive to create a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and growing academically.
I love working with students of all ages, teaching math and other core curriculum subjects. I am focused and patient and will try different strategies to increase student learning. I have taught elementary and middle school students for a number of years and I have tutored PreK through college level and adult students. I believe that anyone can learn to do anything with the right amount of help and dedication.I look forward to working with you!
