Elementary Vocabulary Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Chesterfield, VA

The key to successful teaching is to make it fun! I have a law degree, but most of my experience comes from working with my own kids and spending hundreds of hours volunteering at their schools helping other children. I home schooled my children for 3 years for the middle school years and so I have experience motivating the surly teen who has no motivation to work as well as the young child that just wants to play. I also taught my children and many others how to read at very young ages and have perfected the technique for teaching children math and reading who love to move. One of my children had ADD and so I know how to work well with this issue. I also have a technique for teaching multiplication and math to very young children. You can see an example of the results of my work here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnBCQKn8wBs. The key is making everything FUN!!! This applies wh

I have a bachelor's degree in English from Tulane University, and I've also started my teacher certification. While I was in college, I worked in three local charter schools tutoring kids in grades 1-8 in reading, as well as helping them with language arts, math, social studies, and writing skills as needed. I got to take classes on early childhood education in subjects such as children's literacy and classroom management, and I even wrote my own children's book!

I'm hoping to return to school to get my master's in Reading to become a reading specialist in the future.
