I have been both in plays and worked as the stage crew. I have also directed numerous productions in an after school program. Some children just need a new way of looking at something to understand it. Children might also need just little more time to understand something that schools just don't have the time to give. I am patient, caring and I can think outside the box if a student needs a new way to look at a problem. -Over 2.5 years in Before and After school Program where we helped students with school work and put on plays during the summer. -About a year as a Teachers aid working almost exclusively with Students in Math. -I have worked with children ranging from 3 years old to twelve years old. -I spent 9 years working with students in many different areas.

I volunteer for HOBY (Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar) every year. This program pushes facilitation, which is what I strive to do. I like to try to facilitate and push my students to ask questions and talk to me as a peer. I always try to give at least three compliments to every criticism because students are often too hard on themselves. For some reason, most of the students I have worked with have had an English teacher along the line who has made them feel "stupid." It is amazing what boosting confidence can do! I like to understand where students are coming from and what their specific needs are so I can address them in a way that best fits their learning style and experiences. I began working with children who were diagnosed with autism my first year of college (I did this for 7 years). I felt a sense of accomplishment as I watched them grow as people. I realized throug

As long as I can remember, I have loved learning and working with children. Although, I began my higher education pursuits by obtaining a bachelor's degree in Communication, I quickly realized what I truly wanted to do was teach. So, I returned to school and obtained my teaching license in elementary education. I have been working with children in public and private schools and daycare settings ever since. I have primarily worked with children in preschool-5th grade, and am very comfortable with these age groups. I particularly enjoy teaching reading, writing, social studies, mathematics and the arts. I love teaching and working with children. This is my passion, and I firmly believe all children can and will learn, given the appropriate instuction and resources to succeed. I am patient, easygoing, and like to make learning as fun as possible. I am available to work with your child

I believe teaching should be child friendly and as interactive as possible. When learning is fun, even difficult concepts become easy. My goal is to motivate children to succeed and teach them that they can do anything if they put forth their best effort. I strive to create an environment where students can focus feel safe to take risks. With positive reinforcement I hope to encourage and motivate students as well as instill confidence in them. While I was attending college I worked in child care with a variety of ages preparing lessons for enrichment. I also taught as an adjunct professor for adult ESL at Aims Community College. After finishing my degree, I taught for five years at Wiggins Elementary in 2nd and 6th grade. I was trained in FAST reading program as well as many others for teaching reading and math. For the past two years, I have been living in the country of Macedoni

My general teaching and learning philosophy is that every child has the potential for greatness, but that proper guidance and experiences are needed to reach full potential. Children are not just empty vessels waiting to be filled, but bring unique dimensions and experiences into any educational setting, which affect individual desire and motivation to learn and participate. The varied backgrounds of all children must be addressed and included in the curriculum to maximize each child’s learning potential and scholastic enjoyment. Even the youngest of children is constantly creating, adapting to, and analyzing his/her reality through active learning; thus any educational program should follow in this way. Educational programs should explore basic skills for successful daily living and future scholastic/life success, but should also allow for child interests to mold lessons and act

I like to work with each student( and their parents) on an individual basis, determining specific goals, needs and learning style. I am very dedicated to my students and enjoying working with them to achieve academic success. I have been developing new and interesting curriculum for the past few years for a local after-school program for high school students. I have worked with students ranging in age from elementary to college level. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to work with students to create a schedule that is the most convenient and effective for them.

My teaching style revolves around the specific learning needs of students because each person not only learns differently but has specific strengths and weakness. As teachers it is our job to meet the needs of all learners. I do not believe in presently material in one way, or one way all the time. I am a graduate of both the University of Colorado and Adams State College. I hold a Master's degree in Secondary Education as well as a Initial Teacher's license. I have experience as a volunteer tutor in social studies and math, a paid tutor in reading, a student teacher, and as a substitute for the last year and a half. I also have experience as a mentor to young people through the YMCA.

Coaching, teaching, preaching, and consulting all require a capacity to study. I have served the Presbyterian Church for thirty years as a Minister of Word and Sacrament and in the recent years have added to that my own consulting/coaching work. Preparation for weekly sermons, presentations before groups, and teaching classes requires not only a knowledge of grammar, language, psychology, and communication, but also an ability to integrate all into a whole for producing an effective educational experience. I coach clergy in their leadership roles using material from Family Systems. I teach youth and adults in church school study. I educate clergy one on one. Presently, I am a consultant for America's Job Network, consulting on the phone with clients in career transition. I prefer an inductive approach to the teaching/learing event.

It is incredibly rewarding to me to see people learn something new. Thus, I make sure the student understands the concept before we move on to a new topic. I understand that people learn at different rates and in different ways, so during one-on-one teaching I try to be sensitive to my student's styles and habits. I am patient and encouraging, and I have a genuine interest in student success. I have always loved French and have studied the language consistently since middle school. Now, with a completed French minor, I have the confidence and ability to assist other students with language learning. I recently returned from a 4-month study abroad in France, where complete language immersion and intensive language classes greatly increased my comprehension and vocabulary. I also taught French at an elementary school during my freshman year of college.

I have a gentle yet focused approach to learning. During my academic years I excelled in learning. As an undergraduate I conducted a thesis with four undergraduate assistants. I graduated with honors earning my BA in Psychology. As a drug prevention counselor I had the opportunity to work with children of different ages. I feel I could be of benefit to any child in need of assistance. I am looking forward to establishing strong roots in this community. My teaching style is very personal. I try to teach from experience. I relate to children and listen to their concerns while encouraging their individual growth. It is very important to listen and then make them aware of their choices and their responsibility for their choices. It is also important to set an example through my own actions. I enjoy learning and feel that my enthusiam can be contagious. I get along very well with childre

As a biology undergraduate at IOWA, I focused as much on how professors taught as I did on the content they were teaching. My interest is in meta-cognition and making sense of our world through unique tools of learning: reading, reason, art, music, language. I earned a Bachelor's degree in biology and certification to teach biology and science. I have taught and tutored students with emotional and learning disorders in all subjects, all grades. I am a creative and patient learner, which informs my teaching style. I enjoy meeting students of all ages at their level of understanding and meet easily the challenge of figuring out how to communicate in ways that make sense to the individual. My task as a teacher is, essentially, to believe in the student's ability to learn and to achieve their goals. I ask questions to engage inquiry: students think about their thinking, ask original

As a graduate student, I worked as a tutor in the campus Writing Center. Later, just before graduating, I taught Writing, ESL and GED at the Denver County Jail. Since completing my degree, I became a Writing and Critical Thinking Professor for two separate Universities (Metro State College and Devry University), where I've been for almost nine years. I think learning should be fun. If a student doesn't enjoy what she is doing, she won't likely attain mastery of the discipline. Moreover, I think students learn best by doing as opposed to being told what to do (i.e. practice as opposed to lecture and explanation). This means that I leave a lot of space for students to try things without fear of making mistakes. Evaluation (especially critical evaluation) is an important element in the later learning process, but initially the priorities should be placed upon fun, experimentation, praise, a
