I believe that the success of the student relies in one thing; and that thing is TRUST. If the student trusts in their teacher, an amazing relationship can be formed. The student would become more opened to suggestions and constructive criticism. With that trust in the teacher, they would believe that they are to be lead into the right path no matter how tough it may be at first. The teacher should be encouraging perseverance through the struggles and promoting the incredible feeling of success once the goal has been reached. My bachelors is in Elementary Education, but my experiences are in middle school. I started my teaching experience in Salisbury Maryland where I did all of my student teaching. The two sixth grade classrooms that I engaged in were totally different from each other; different demographics, different backgrounds, different school cultures, and the list could go on. Ea

I teach in the way of Scaffolding. I give the learner all the assistance they need until they no longer need it any more. I start by giving a lot of cues and help with each step. Then I slowly take the training wheels off and each time, I let them show me more and more what they can do with out the help. I hope to create leaders. I have been teaching children younger than myself since I started teaching Sunday school classes and became a adolescent influence in my previous youth group. I new all along I was going to be a teacher. I have been tutoring my younger nephews since they are now in grade level courses. I have also had experience in the classroom as observing mentor teachers and assisting them in lesson plan creations.

I think that all students are unique, learning in different styles and at different paces. As a tutor, it is important to tailor instruction to meet the needs of each individual student. All students have the ability to learn, bringing their own struggles and successes to the table. As a graduate of an Ivy League institution, I was able to earn an excellent liberal arts education, earning a Bachelor degree in Spanish and in Urban Studies. Throughout college, I tutored Math, Writing, and Spanish. In addition, I have concrete teaching experience. I taught Spanish part-time for .5 years to second grade students, and I taught full-time for one year in the Baltimore City School System. I attended Johns Hopkins for 1 year, and have completed part of the MAT program in teaching Spanish.

As a graduate of The Ohio State University, I had a passion for closing the achievement gap that exists between minority students and their counterparts. Therefore,I chose to obtain a Bachelor's Degree in English and another Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. Therefore, I am able to provide my constituents with the pedagogy and the motivation to help them achieve their educational aspirations. Since I am a lifelong learner, I have also obtained my Master's in Education. I recognize that each child brings a certain type of diversity to their learning environment. This diversity ranges from their background knowledge, to their life experiences and ultimately their learning styles. After I create a learning style profile, I begin to create and implement strategies that will help students acquire and retain the skills that are necessary for them to master the subject area. I am very patient, o

I believe that teaching should be as student-centered as possible. This means primarily two things. First, it means students should be as active in their education as possible. I see myself as a guide, who will teach students the skills they need to discover knowledge in the future, rather than as a provider of knowledge. Second, it means that I always take students interests, learning profiles, and abilities into account when planning lessons or tutoring sessions. More generally, I am a teacher who is extremely organized but also very creative with my lesson plans. Through making lessons interactive and interesting, I've found that students get engaged in the material and learn more effectively. I have taught college writing and literature at the University of Maryland for the last two years while completing my M.A. in English Language and Literature, and I will continue to teach writin

I love working with all children. I believe that every child has the potential to learn and I try very hard to find out what works for the individual learner. I am patient, easy-going, but I expect my students to set goals and put forth the effort required to meet them. I tend to take a constructivist approach to learning and like to draw on my students prior knowledge and experiences as well as their interests. I believe that I can make a difference in a child's life and I enjoy helping children establish a love for learning. I am currently enrolled in a Post-Baccalaureate Teaching Certification program at Kutztown University for Secondary Education English and the Masters of Education program for Curriculum and Instruction. I have a 4.0 GPA in my Graduate program and have volunteered in K-5 elementary classrooms over the past three years. I am experienced in writing research papers in
