I have been called a "Spelling Nazi." Is this an insult or a compliment? I love that I can spell most any word, but I don't like being called a nazi! My current position is as a Museum Consultant.

I am patient but firm with students.I believe when given an appropriate environment and encouragement they all have the potential to learn. Using humor and making personal connections with students helps them feel comfortable, and in doing so, creates an agreeable learning environment.

In my years with the district I have completed numerous trainings in several reading programs, Readind Assist, Wilson, and Soar to Success are a few.

I am also certified to teach special education classes. I have been teaching for 13 years with 8 years in third grade, 1 year in first grade and 4 years as a reading specialist.

With my B.A. in Sociology, I have had many opportunities to fine-tune my abilities in writing. Having years experience working with our community’s children (in excess of several thousand hours at every age-level within three school districts); I have more than adequate experience in working with children in an academic group as well as one-on-one settings. I have held a long term substitute position (in 8th grade Language Arts) and have every confidence that I am qualified to instruct in many areas of the educational spectrum (more specifically, composition). I have worked with all age levels. I would be committed to being a contributing factor in our children’s growth, education and development. Along with their family members and educators, my goal would be to become their advocate in helping them to achieve their potential via one-on-one/small group reinforcement and instill confid

While completing my masters in Special Education, I have learned creative ways to help children with special needs that I work with. I have designed and coordinated a Resource Center to help students with special needs learn and achieve at their level. I have also designed and implemented a school for children with special needs. I believe that every child has a right to learn. I believe that, no matter what kind of problem or learning disability that student has, that he/she deserves to learn. It is the responsibility, not only of the teacher, but the parents, grandparents, siblings and community to help children receive the best education that they can. I believe that all children learn differently. Some learn through doing; some through listening; others are a combination. I teach to each child in the way that best helps them to learn.

I believe that all students want to learn and feel successful. I also believe that all students can learn so long as the materials are available to them in a form that is most compatible with their individual learning styles. My most important charge, along with helping those I tutor to "get" the materials, is to help them analyze their own styles of learning, identify what is successful for them and what is not, and help them create new strategies which might meet with more consistent success, both short and long term. For students who have not learned their own best ways to learn, this step is a crucial foundation for all future academic successes.

I have always had high ratings as a graduate school teacher and lecturer. I am considered a mentor of others and have enjoyed my role as a helpmate to students of all ages. I have consistently worked with students during my career and have taught them writing skills for newsletters, memoranda, emails, and website composition. I am considered caring, patient, sociable, kind, and fun to be around. I believe that children and adults learn best using mixed methods that are appropriate to the learning venue, e.g., providing hands-on examples, interactive conversations, videos (where appropriate), homework, and computer based learning so the student does not get bored and sees learning as interesting and exciting. I have always seeked employment with organizations that support programs to help others, especially underserved population groups. My federal, academic, and business careers have

I have always tried to teach concepts differently than traditional ways and somehow apply these to real life situations. With younger folks, real life situations don’t always work so I try to relate to their specific situation. Teaching children has always been a passion of mine and can be challenging. With the right combination of teaching style and self confidence everyone has a chance to be successful. I obtained my AAS in 1986, from Hudson Valley Community College, located in Troy, NY. Working toward the BS wasn’t easy as it took another 8 years of night coursework. I eventually obtained my BS from the State University of New York Institute of Technology at Utica/Rome, in 1994. I have excellent communication, writing, and problem solving skills. The credit requirement for my degree was 146 credits, which is a little bit more than the average.

I’ve always enjoyed teaching others, whether I was a kid tacking up my pony and giving informal riding lessons or leading fellow undergrad students through the forests surrounding Salisbury University’s field station. In the past two years, I have discovered a passion for children. I immensely enjoyed the summer I spent teaching riding lessons in Colorado and realized how much I wanted to continue with the education process when I returned to the Eastern Shore. As a substitute teacher, I have been able to explore the range of teaching methods and opportunities. I thoroughly enjoy working in a small group or one-on-one setting with students who have specific learning difficulties or problems and helping them grasp the material at hand. While at Salisbury University, I studied Environmental Issues and firmly believe in the theory I learned that education in the beginning for everything. I

As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches. Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way!
