Harmoney
I really enjoy teaching and I get a joy from helping others.
When I was younger, I failed a lot of things. Now that I’m older and I’ve developed better study habits I’m doing much better. Along the way I’ve developed a love for tutoring others especially when I see the joy on their faces and how they succeed. One of my trouble subjects was math so I understand how it feels to have tried everything. It’s possible to learn and maybe you just learn differently. In result to my help, I’ve been much happier. I hope I can teach you what you need to do be... Read more

Seasoned educator, specializing in Rdg/LA-- Loves to write:)

The key to teaching reading is developing a student's comprehension strategies. I find that students who have difficulty with reading don't know what to do when their comprehension breaks down. I can help. I also love to write. While creative writing is my specialty, I have taught informative ... Read more

Pamela
Pamela, History/Social Studies Teacher
In order for a child to be successful in school they must be able to retain what the teacher presents as keys terms and concepts related to the subject content. Oftentimes, when we "learn" a new concept we retain the information long enough to pass the exam/quiz on that particular aspect/concept, only to forget the key facts after the exam/quiz because we memorized the information instead of Learning the information. Although the use of memory is essential to the learning process,... Read more
