Experience Summary
I have Five (plus) years of professional tutoring experience specializing in English and Elementary Math. I have three years of substitute teaching experience, during which time I worked with students in grades 1-6. I also have three years of full-time classroom teaching experience, during which time I taught 3rd, 5th, and 1st grades. In the two years since I left the classroom, I have become a homeschool evaluator, test administrator, and tutor.
Teaching Style
I have experience with differentiated instruction which has helped a lot in my tutoring business. I help my students find their unique learning style and then use that style in my lessons. For example, a couple of my students are kinesthetic (hands-on) learners so I use flashcards, coins, and other manipulatives to help them master math skills.
My Hobbies
In my free time, I am a voracious reader. I love historical fiction, "chick-lit", and anything by Jane Austen. I also serve in ministries at my church.
