"Inspiring students to achieve academic excellence."

My teaching style completely depends on the student themselves.

I strive to help students truly understand content and learn effective fundamental strategies and study techniques that can help them be successful when applied to any subject.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having learned to read at a very early age, my love of reading has been carried through my whole life. I have tried to instill this love of reading and books into all young people I have come into contact with - neices and nephews as well as grandchildren. My aim in tutoring is to not only teach students to read well, but to instill in them as well a love for reading.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I work in a school now and I can help show you how to sign the words for this subject.

I have been a professional Interpreter for over 12 years and will continue to do so until I am not needed anymore. I have worked in numerous places as an Interpreter such as Hospitals, court houses, Dr. offices, schools, and etc. I develop a relationship with all my clients that keep them requesting me. I take time to care about what's going on and stay focused and intrigued with everything that's going on.
I can break it down so that it will be as easy for anyone to understand. I also sometimes like to try and connect the sign with the meaning so that it is easy for any person to remember.

A Little Bit About Me...

I really enjoy working with children and adapting to the intricacies of individual learners. I believe that everyone has the potential to find themselves unblemished in the world of an artwork and to develop from this a confidence in who they are and what they are doing that stretches into all aspects of their lives. I believe that art is the spark of passion and I employ this notion of passion as the key to discovery and learning. In this way I approach teaching reading and writing in the same way as I do sculpture; first one must find an individuals own entry point, a child’s own place of interest from which all facets of academia may stem and grow.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a tutor, I was encouraging, supportive and sensitive to my students' feelings. For example, I normally met my students at the library. One student kept missing his initial session. I figured out that he was too intimidated by the library itself to meet me there. So, we had regular lessons in the park, where he felt comfortable and was therefore receptive to learning. Ultimately, I strived to make each session a positive experience, so that my students would leave feeling good about themselves.
I have a bachelor's degree in English. After college, I worked in the communication area of a large company and wrote news releases and promotional newsletters.

My teaching style is one where I adapt to the situation and what it requires. I believe each student should be taught to the individual level they are on but still challenged. I am a very patient and easy going person. I relate well to students and am able to use this ability to get the most out of them. I also believe that students will rise to the expectations we put on them. All children have potential for great things, it is just up to us to determine what these great things are.
