A Little Bit About Me...

I was born to teach. I believe all children can meet their potential by discovering what their specific learning styles are. I see life through the eyes of a child. I have the ability to incorporate academic concepts through thematics units One of my strongest qualities as a teacher is being able to break down difficult concepts into small steps that students understand. I also understand the frustrations that many parents feel when trying to help their child. I am the mother of two special needs children. Having been a classroom teacher for thirty years I taught many children who faced many and varied challenges with their education. In addition to teaching children I have also taught workshops for teachers and parents.
I have been an elementary teacher for more than 25 years; 10 of those years I taught gifted children. My teaching specialties include grant writing with chi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I work well with students one on one. This setting gives me an opportunity to recognize individual needs. I am a caring, patient person who is considerate of other people’s feelings. I give constructive suggestions and refrain from belittling. I believe in a simple approach to writing. I often use outlines to help students stay on track and organize their thoughts. I help them cut out material that detracts from their message. I look at general themes and flow, as well as word choice and grammar. My goal is to help students make their work better, while still maintaining their individual style and ideas. I enjoy working with young children, teenagers and young adults.
I enjoy helping students improve their writing skills. In college, I majored in print journalism. I was an editor at a student newspaper for about six months. In addition to assigning articles and posting articles on ... read more

More About This Tutor...

We all have different views, and I would like to find that gateway into the minds of children so that they can see and understand more. I use different methods for each individual. It depends on each person what they like and want in order to find the motivation in themselves. It is satisfying to see people realize that they can achieve more than they first thought.
I have earned a bachelor of science degree in General Science, which means I have a very good understanding of many topics including: Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Physics, Computers, and Arts. I have experience in being a leader of 10-16 people in the military as an officer. I enjoyed teaching people of their oppurtunities in furthering their education. During late nights I tutored friends in Calculus and Biology.

Most people can’t recall their first days of school, but I can.While the fashions changed as I entered each grade, I was always filled excitement.It was equivalent to the feeling you get at Christmas, but better!The present you were getting on the warm August day was a new teacher, a new desk, and new friends. It is those same feelings that drew me to wanting to be an educator.I have experiences in various grade levels and a broad range of content knowledge.During my undergraduate career I was lucky enough to be given a great foundation.I have been able to practice hands on what I had learned in the classroom and it has given me the confidence in my ability to be an educator.
I have a passion for teaching and working with children to help them be successful. I always have the goal to make all the students I come into contact leave wanting to be life long learners. This doesn't go w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Every child learns in a different way and I consider it my responsibility as an instructor to discover the methods that help students dissect and retain information. I have found that excitement for your subject is crucial in making learning fun. I enjoy finding creative ways to help students tackle problems, whether mathematical or verbal. I am patient, friendly, and know the importance of encouragement for a job well done. After a tutoring session, I would want the student to come away feeling challenged and rewarded. I know the necessity of a good education and I would do everything possible to empower my students to be successful in that endeavor.
I have always had a deep appreciation for knowledge and education. I hold a BS in Marine Science (Oceanography), through which I took many high level science and math courses. I recently completed an MS in Environmental Science a ... read more
