A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught in the public school system for over 7 years at all grade levels from Kindergarten to Grade 12. I have taught all subject areas as well as Special Education, Resource, and AIS Reading and Math.

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the years I have found math and reading/writing to be important skills and they were amongst the most useful tools I had ever learned. Over the years it has served we well and I enjoy teaching the material to younger people while explaining to them its benefits, but also allowing them to have a skill that will serve them well. I have a great deal of patience, compassion and understanding with younger people because I realize that everyone learns at different rates. My other goal is to relate math to everyday examples in life to indicate how useful they can be. Also, I am considering this route because several people have recommended it because they believe I would make a good teacher. Thanks for your consideration.
While I am not a teacher by profession, I spent much time in the academic support center at SUNY Cobleskill as a freshman tutoring students in different kinds of ma ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have quite alot of experience in the filed of education. I was very driven to attain my degree and I also attained a minor in Psychology. I earned an Associates degree in Human Services, and a BS degree in the field of Special Education with a minor in Psychology. It was in the area of Special Education that I was able to broaden that degree to help a larger spectrum of children. I have tutored children with learing disabilities in the area of reading and writing. I have also had the oppurtunity to work with an agency in the area of Social Work. This taught me networking skills. How to find the services that each family and child would need to become successful in school.

Having graduated as an artist who expanded to art and elementary education I come from a diversified background. I have taught in the public,private and home schooled sectors. Being an accomplished artist and teacher I enjoy combining the two aspects of my abilities to create and foster the love of learning in individuals.
I believe all children are creative and eager to learn. I enjoy the challenge of unlocking the avenue to their learning style. All children can succeed if given the tools for their personal style. As an educator I consider this my primary task. All learning comes naturally from that point on with effort and guidance. My strong points are patience,understanding,creativity,and life long learning as an adult. I think the last point is extremely important as a tool for modeling the younger generations. This creates a relaxed instructor/student repoire while setti ... read more

I love teaching, period. I strive for clarity in my presentation. This has allowed me to explain very complex ideas to adults as well as very young children. The mark of a good teacher is comprehension. Never is there a place for anger or impatience in teaching! It is the duty of the instructor to demonstrate why the subject is important and interesting. For example, I never enjoyed Math until a teacher in college explained it's value. It was not that we will necessarily need to perform those equations, rather it is that it trains our mind how to think well, much like mental gymnastics. Thus, I strive to find ways to bring home the subject matter in a way that connects with my audience.
In a world of specialization, I tend to break the mold by having rather wide academic interests. I earned a bachelors degree in Religion, then went on to earn an MA in Theology. In betwee ... read more

I have been supervising other counselors since 1997 in their report-writing. I take pride in my writing skills in the face of a field riddled with nurses who prefer abbreviations to beautifully executed coherent sentences. The sheer eloquence of being able to deliver a report allowing the reader to infer the true meaning of your words, while not providing any statements that will give fuel to a legal representative is a time-earned skill. In addition to my writing skills, I have 14 years of business skills, extensive analytical skills, which transfer into expertise in geometry, and of course 20 years of experience as a counselor.
I teach the way I counsel--by expecting self-responsibility. I use humor to enhance one's motivation to seek out and focus on one's strengths. I am not a coddler--I believe that higher expectations result in higher performance. When coupled with e ... read more

I am a graduate of SUNY Oneonta. I graduated with honors in Childhood Education. I have a few years of experience. As a Substitute Teacher, I implemented the teachers desired lessons plans while implementing my own classroom discipline strategies. As a Preschool Teacher, I created my own lesson plans according to theme. I supervised two staff members as well as 15 children ages 3-5. I implemented my own classroom discipline strategies.
I enjoy working and teaching with all children. I believe that all children can learn, but at different levels and abilities. I feel accomplished when I see that children finally understand a concept. I am patient and understanding of children. I believe that children should have more hands on activities brought into their education. I want to be that teacher they remember from thirty years from now. I want to make a difference in their l ... read more
