A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my college years I have been employed by two different after school programs for a combined amount of 6 years tutoring/teaching in public school after school programs. (Grades K-6) I also spent 2 months teaching full time 3rd and 4th grade after college prior to unfortunately being laid off due to financial losses in the school. I also tutored English in college through an Advanced English class I was placed in.
I have a passion and calling for working with children. From the time I was a child, I knew this is what I was meant to do. I believe children are the hope of our country, and that every child is capable of learning and expanding their knowledge. Knowledge is power, and if a child is given the proper encouragement and motivation they can and will succeed. I consider it an amazing privilege to be an educator and make a difference in the lives of my students.

For the past 18 years, I have held various instructor positions in both the Active and Reserve components of the Army, providing instruction in such areas as Anatomy & Physiology, Biology, Surgical Technique, Emergency Medicine, Combat Lifesaver and Sterile Processing. My extensive work in medicine as a surgical first assistant and instructor gave me a unique insight into the inner workings of the human body, in both the civilian as well as the military sectors. It has given me wonderful opportunities to work with all different types of students in a broad spectrum of areas such as science, communication and public speaking, leadership roles, English, beginner Spanish (high school and college level), and writing (APA and other styles.)
My teaching style is very goal-oriented, yet flexible enough to accomodate a variety of methods. Some students learn best from lectures, other le ... read more

Too many students these days give up too easily when their studies get a little challenging. I want to be able to show students that it's the challenge in their studies that make their courses more worth while and memorable. I am approachable, social with all ages, and able to communicate well and accordingly to respective age groups. I encourage students to be honest with their troubles in academics. I believe in providing a comfortable and positive atmosphere for students to thrive and absorb. My style includes helping students find a joy in learning and furthering their academics post high school.

More About This Tutor...

I love one on one or small class sizes. Each child is so different in their own way and each have such a different learning style that I like to take it slow and be personal with each student. In my years of experience I have learned how to make learning fun. I love to include humor and everyday examples when I teach. Children are amazing and after all our future.
As an Americorp participant during my early college years I learned of the many joys that teaching can give. I have a BS in general studies and very close to a BS in psychology, criminal justice, and English. I have taught at a college for 3 years, substituted for various school districts for 2, and I am currently finishing a full-time jr. High teaching position at Immanuel Christian School.

My tutoring style is very one-on-one and interactive. I encourage the students I tutor to ask as many questions as possible to get right to the root of why they are having difficulty with a certain subject. I enjoy students who are motivated to do well and who strive to get past their problems with learning. I try to explain things as thoroughly and concisely as possible in terms that a student would understand. Overall, patience, understanding, determination, and a sense of humor are all what makes for a positive tutoring experience for both the student and the tutor.
I have worked as a personal tutor in the past, and have helped students with a variety of subjects from Trigonometry to Spanish. I have also worked with international students learning English. I experienced great academic success in high school (I earned very competitive scores on several AP and SAT exams), graduate ... read more

My teaching style involves a positive approach. I believe students learn best in an environment that is both positive and challenging. Positive feedback is essential because students are encouraged to take risks and solve problems. A challenging classroom teaches critical thinking skills that are necessary for the global market.
I tutored philosophy students for a year while in college. I earned a master's degree in early childhood education and taught second grade for two years. I also was a substitute teacher for grades K-8th. Currently, I am a motivational speaker and a mentor through United We Mentor.
