I am a recent high school graduate. I graduated in the top fourth of my class. My GPA is a 3.48. My best subject is math. I enjoy helping and working with others to help them succeed. I completed a class in high school named Teach Cadet where I learned the basics about education and the importance of being a versatile teacher. I was able to work with children from head start to elementary level. I also was a member of two organizations at school where I worked with sixth graders about the importance of goals and worked with fourth graders about the importance of team work. I try to adapt to the way the student prefers. I understand that there are various ways people obtain and grasp knowledge.

I love working with children of all ages. I can say I am patient enough to deal with elementary students being that I've done so before.

For the last seven years, I have taught and tutored English to adults who speak other languages. In the last two years, I have added tutoring students in grades 3-12. While teaching English as a Second Language at a local college, I was a lead lab instructor for two years. Students work with me on pronunciation, reading, writing and grammar. They also work on improving their test taking skills. I have a Masters Degree in the area of Child Development and Family Life, and a Bachelors Degree in the areas of History and English. We do not all learn to speak, read and write languages in the same way. Some of us learn by mostly hearing or saying; some of us learn by mostly seeing and looking; and some of us learn by mostly doing, using touch and moving parts of our bodies or things. I use all three ways to learn when helping others improve their English. I use hearing, seeing and doing. I ch

I love working with elementary children. They are so refreshing. Children really bring out the best in me-patience and passion. My style is easy going yet direct. As every child is different, I always try to adapt to individual learning styles. My role as an educator is to create an environment which allows each child to thrive at his/her own individual level. When children are comfortable in their environment they have a tendency to excel. I would consider my teaching style that of a facilitator. However, I do incorporate strategies of a demonstrator. As a financial services professional for over 10 years, I really enjoyed working one-on-one with my clients to help them meet their financial objectives. It is such a rewarding experience to see a client be able to save and eventually retire in part because of my help and their desire. During the last 6 months I have worked consis

My teaching style is very simple, but effective. I merely talk to the student to find out where he or she is having difficulty, and work to find ways to remedy the problem. We will go over the concepts and do some exercises that will help to answer questions and deepen understanding of the source material. I am a William and Mary graduate with a BS in Chemistry, with several years of programming experience from developing my own computer games. In addition I performed laboratory research at the College of William and Mary for a thesis and have 2 years of experience tutoring in Elementary Spanish, Computer Science, General Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry.
