I believe that all children can learn but they don't all learn the same way. It is my job as the teacher to make the lessons interesting and present them in such a way that the student will understand what is being taught. I believe that students need to feel valued and successful and it is my job to help them achieve success in their education and to feel valued as people. I have enjoyed working with middle schoolers which is such a difficult time for so many trying to find where they "fit" in the world. I feel it is my duty to make them feel safe and secure in the setting I provide so they can learn. I am a special education teacher and have worked with a wide range of students with various abilities as well as disabilities: mental retardation, learning disabilities, emotional disorders, and autism.

My teaching style is flexible. Since I work with children that have special needs (specifically Autsim), I have to be creative in my approach and adapt to the instructional needs of the student. For example, many of my students require direct and explicit instruction; however, some of the students are nonverbal and artistic and require a more constructive approach. Prior to graduating May 8, 2010, I tutored students in grades K-12 for 2 years at an after school tutoring program called, Operation Homework. From this experience, I was able to initiate and Direct an educational summer camp called, 3-steps Ahead Summer Enrichment Camp.

I enjoy teaching students through a variety of methods including traditional, hands on, and student specific. Each student learns differently and as a tutor I seek to tailor the education to the specific skills and needs of the specific student. I believe the goal of teaching is not only to learn specific content and skills, but to inspire students to love learning, and make learning fun and interactive. I hope to challenge the student in many ways, while helping them grow into their full potential.
