I have two years of experaince teaching in public schools and four years of experaince teaching in Christian schools. I have an advanced degree in information technology and a background in English education. I have learned something from each of my students in my yeears of teaching but I think that my first year taught me the most. I think of the famous quote by Nikos Kazantzakis, “The ideal educator turns into a bridge which they then invite students to cross… after the bridge is crossed students must make bridges of their own.” I earned a Master’s of Science degree earlier this year by studying a variety of subjects. I began my college journey in 2006 with the goal of spreading and teaching a love of books, reading and learning. The goal began to be met at Southeastern Missouri State University. I studied English Education there. The school has a great teaching program that not only

I believe that all children want and try to do their best, but sometimes need an extra push. I think it is necessary to use the appropriate curriculum, but to find out what teaching method works best for each student as we all learn differently. It is also important for each child/student to have some flexibility in what they learn in order to express their individuality and own creativity. I have been caring for children of all ages for the last 9 years, which includes tutoring and metoring. I am also in my second year as a substitute teacher, in which I teach grades pre-k through 12th grade.

Advocacy for the child is of utmost importance to me and working one on one with a child is a huge building block to enable the child to succeed. My attributes as a tutor are found in my gentle, fun loving, creative spirit. I am firm about learning and always follow protocol. I have an awareness and knowledge working with children who have learning disabilities, as both my children have learning challenges. Good communication skills and ingenuity have allowed me success with my students. Patience and perseverance coupled with care for the child are the basis for the tools I use to teach. I have accumulated 92 credit hours toward a Bachelor of Science in Education with an emphasis in Art.

My teaching style first and foremost is to not find translations. The easiest way to understand is to find the cultural equivalent. Because I have a passion for languages and teaching, patience is never a second thought. Throughout my educational career I have accumulated a variety of resources to assist in my teaching and find patterns that make it easier for the student to work with. I create homework, assignments and have fun. I am not rigid in my approach however I am fun and serious. I decided to earn my BA in French since languages seemed like second nature to me. Additionally, I had to take Italian and I taught myself to read Greek. My tutoring started in high school when I successfully raised a students grade of F to an A in French. I also received an ESL Certification from London and used that here in St. Louis to teach ESL where I was employed at ELS. One of my students

I believe I have a good idea on how to keep a child interested and challanged in a given subject. I believe in hands on learning. I try to incorporate as many fun activities in lesson plans as possible. I really enjoy seeing grades going up and seeing kids' eyes lit up with pride in academic achievement.

I believe that each child/adult has a learning style unique to them. Finding what works and what makes learning fun, to me, are critical to success, especially to struggling learners. Positive reinforcement and encouragement are critical, as well. My background includes teaching at the elementary level and at the adult education level, especially literacy. I spent 10 years directing an adult literacy program where I trained volunteers to be tutors and tutored myself. During that time I took an intensive training course on working with people with learning disabilities. I have worked with ESOL students, as well.
