I have been trained and always believed that all students can learn, under the right instructional forms. I use a variety of teaching styles to reach all of my students. Hands on, power points, lectures, movies, worksheets, diagrams, and even realouds provide learning for each individual in a different way. Exposing these learning methods to all students helps them find the best choice for them, while learning to learn through other methods. After graduating from high school, I felt that I could return to the high schools to provide a more engaging, caring education to many more students. Throughout the past fifteen years, I have taught various levels from gifted to varying exceptionalities, coached several sports, and enjoyed participating in many after school clubs and organizations.

My approach to tutoring is very much student centered. I focus on encouraging my students to draw conclusions and by creating an environment which supports questions and critical thinking. It is important to emphasize that there is a difference in the way the younger children and older adults process and absorb information. A tailored approach to the individual as well as to the subject is key to a students success. Often times it is the encouragement and support of the tutor which can make the difference in a students ability to achieve success. As a graduate of a liberal arts oriented school, it was always impressed upon me that the ability to question and draw conclusions would lead to later successes. In addition, creating links from the theoretical to the practical though research techniques and observation is the only way to accurately correlate classroom and real world learning. I

Teaching is enjoyable to me, but the bureaucracy of the school systems is not. I believe that there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to helping students learn. My children attended Montessori school during their elementary school years, and benefitted greatly from that method of education. They were treated as individuals and it well prepared them for the next steps in their educations. One of my children is a Judge and another is a doctor, so it must have worked. That type of individual attention draws me to tutoring. I taught high school for one year and middle school for a year and a half. I was certified to teach social studies 6-12, though I have let my certification expire. I have worked with middle school students for the past four years in an administrative and service capacity.

A tutor must be encouraging and have a refined set of social skills to relate to administrators, parents, and the student. I strive to make all students wiser and more confident as they complete each tutoring session. I am a licensed and certified school psychologist in private practice. Currently, I am supervising 8 teachers for an SAT company and also teaching the Verbal component of this course.

I believe people learn through doing. Especially with mathematics I ensure that concepts are clearly presented to my students. Then I motivate then to try to do the problems, with my guidance, and as they gain confidence to eventually work problems on their own. This is the approach I use for chemistry as well. With biology my emphasize is on student understanding the principle so that they can apply in differ situation I am an Electrical engineer who has taken some masters level electrical engineering courses.
