I have always had a passion for education and learning. I have always excelled in mathematics from elementary to collegiate levels. I LOVE math. I love to do math and I love to teach math. I was even on a math competition team in middle school. I have a strong statistical background from my Psychology studies and have taught Middle Grades Math to 8th graders. I taught Standard 8 Plus and Algebra 1 to 8th grade students in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School system. I also tutored Psychology students in Statistics at the collegiate level during my time as a teaching assistant. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and showing them something new. I feel a sense of reward when a student of mine realizes that they have a new concept. When the lightbulb comes on it is the best feeling in the world. I believe that given the right tools and the right environment all students can learn

I love teaching and working with all chldren. I use my academic training and teaching background to make a solid contribution to educational experiences that will inspire and enhance the lives of young children. My goal is to teach in a way that makes learning fun and exciting. Some children learn by listening, some by seeing and touching, but all children can learn. You just have to take the time to find out how they learn. I have taught children for 15 years. I have taught Vocal Music for 1 year, and taught Elementary Ed. for 14 years. I have tutored for Sylvan Learning, and Academic Acheivers. I have taught Summer School for Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools for 6 years. I have taught for Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools for 14 years.

As a graduate, summa cum laude, with degrees in English and Voice, I am a highly driven individual. With my time spent as a Writing Center Consultant, I worked directly with students with a variety of writing needs. As both an independent and a corporate proofreader, I gained exceptional English language skills. My academic papers have always received the highest praise and I was at the top of my class. I have taught private voice lessons, having up to seven students at a time. I am self-motivated, strongly educated and very passionate about using knowledge to educate others. I love working one-on-one or in small groups. I am very encouraging and understand that each student has his or her own learning style. I am adaptive to these varying needs. I believe in positive reinforcement. I never get frustrated with a student and will try different methods until I find one that works with each

I have been told often I am especially patient, which I believe is one of the most important qualities for a teacher to have. I know from experience that not all children learn in the same environment, so I would love work one-on-one with a student to help him or her to gain the experience that may be lacking. Each person has different strengths, and those strengths may not always be recognized in the classroom setting. Many students have unrealized strengths and abilities. My license is in English, but I also enjoy Math and History. I have a classical music background as well. Upon my graduation from UNC Chapel Hill, I worked various jobs; however, I could not find fulfillment in what I experienced. I decided upon moving to Charlotte in March 2006 to go into Secondary Teaching in English. I gained an excellent education at UNC Chapel Hill and UNC Charlotte. I have one year of pu
