Experience Summary
I have taught reading and music full time in public schools as well as administered IQ and Achievement Tests for the Ok State Dept. of Education. I have tutored students in reading, test-taking techniques, and elementary math. With a BS in Elementary Education, MS Reading Specialist and Psychometry/Educational Diagnostician certification as well as strong minors in Art and Music, I have the background necessary to diagnose problems and teach necessary skills. As a writer I have maintained my own web site www.ahealthymentality.com for more than one year. As a successful graduate of acting school and a singer/actor myself I am ready to help anyone in these entertainment areas also.
Teaching Style
As a diagnostician I strive to thoroughly understand the academic strengths and weaknesses of each student. I also use my observational skills and testing experience to check for auditory, visual and other problems not easily detected in school settings. With adequate individual attention using proven teaching techniques, I can help any student to achieve his/her maximum level of expertise in any subject.
