Experience Summary
I have 14 years of teaching experience, 12 of which were in the state of South Carolina and 2 in the state of Maryland. The past seven years have been in Horry County Schools. Over the years, I have tutored students one on one, including my own students as well as through private tutoring companies. I really enjoy the experience of working with students individually. This is why I'm seeking a tutoring position with part-time, flexible hours. It will also allow me to spend more time with my family, especially my two children.
Teaching Style
I love working with children and adults of all ages, especially teenagers. Since I began teaching in 1991, I have had a wide variety of experiences in teaching. I have taught French Immersion in the elementary school (FLES), Exploratory French in the middle school (FLEX), high school levels I through Advanced Placement and also young adults at the community college level. I've also tutored adults and children. I find it very rewarding to teach students one-on-one. Too often, at the high school level, we don't see the fruits of our labor because our kids go off to college. However, as a tutor, you get to see the benefits almost immediately through improvements in grades and/or test scores.
