Experience Summary
When I was younger I had a really tough time with my speech and with my reading/comprehension. I went through school constantly having to work slower and harder than most students in my class. I was so determined to get better at my learning disabilities that I decided to go to a tutor. With the extra great help and assistance I was able to catch up to most students in my class and continued to excel throughout grade school. Because of this learning disability, throughout most of my life I have been driven and passionate to work with children that may have the same problems that I had as a child. I worked as a volunteer with children that had literacy problems, worked as an assistant teacher with children that have a difficult time keeping up with the class.
Teaching Style
I thoroughly enjoy working with students in any learning atmosphere. I have learned through years of working in both, a volunteer and school atmosphere, that each child has different paces and learning styles. What works for one child may be all wrong for another. Through this each child I feel deserves, not only the time and understanding from someone who cares, but also someone who is willing to put in some added effort and time in to making that child feel confident and comfortable learning. I am a very understanding teacher. I am willing to develop different ways to help children to understand and to learn the subject.
