Experience Summary
I am a very motivated, high energy, enthusiastic teacher with many years experience as a special olympics volunteer and professional figure skating instructor. I have experience with children of all ages and disabilities.
I teach arts and crafts to the local children in my area and I am a published jewelry artist in quite a few magazines.
I myself have two daughters ages 7 and 10 and I have been able to help them AND their friends excel in their schoolwork by being a proactive parent and being able to simplify their schoolwork for them so they can better understand it AND remember it.
Teaching Style
I believe that every person AND child should always be told what they are doing WELL as well as what they need to improve on. I make sure never to make the child feel like they did something bad by answering something wrong but to use that as a tool and break it down and simplify it to them so they can relate to it and therefore they will stand a better chance of getting it right in the future by being able to look at it as a common sense thing rather than something they had to memorize.
Kids are sponges and with the right tools and patience, they can excel in anything.
