Working with kindergarden through Adulthood, I work with a student to help them get to where they can be their best. Additionally, it is always my mission to teach the student self confidence and basic study skills in order for them to compete with their classmates or to compete with others similarly situated. I work with students one on one or in a small classroom setting. I get the children actively involved in the learning process and I help them to learn how to conquer their study weaknesses.

I believe that all students want to learn and feel successful. I also believe that all students can learn so long as the materials are available to them in a form that is most compatible with their individual learning styles. My most important charge, along with helping those I tutor to "get" the materials, is to help them analyze their own styles of learning, identify what is successful for them and what is not, and help them create new strategies which might meet with more consistent success, both short and long term. For students who have not learned their own best ways to learn, this step is a crucial foundation for all future academic successes. I hold a Maryland Advanced Professional Certificate with endorsements for: English 7 – 12 Generic Special Education 1 – 8 Health PreK – 12 Hearing Impaired Middle School: English Language Arts 4 – 9 Middle School: M

I love learning and helping others learn too! Learning is the key to knowledge and also the key to being a successful and well-rounded individual in society. I believe each person has the potential to learn and achieve great things and I'm here to help people get there. I have worked with students ranging in ages from Kindergarten to High-schoolers. My goal in being a tutor is to help students make the subjects and things they are struggling with into strengths. I enjoy using a variety of teaching styles from memory games to physical activities and reviewing homework. I want to help you the student in a way that fits your learning style. I also strive to make a difference in the lives of my students and allow the students to help me continue to learn and grow. I recently graduated from Belhaven College in Jackson Mississippi with a degree in Elementary Education. I currently hold valid

I believe that every child has a right to learn. I believe that, no matter what kind of problem or learning disability that student has, that he/she deserves to learn. It is the responsibility, not only of the teacher, but the parents, grandparents, siblings and community to help children receive the best education that they can. I believe that all children learn differently. Some learn through doing; some through listening; others are a combination. I teach to each child in the way that best helps them to learn. While completing my masters in Special Education, I have learned creative ways to help children with special needs that I work with. I have designed and coordinated a Resource Center to help students with special needs learn and achieve at their level. I have also designed and implemented a school for children with special needs.

I have been involved with youth since completing Bible College in 1978. I have two grown children who both completed college (my daughter cum laud in chem; University of Kentucky). I also have two step children; ages 12 and 10. I have been a qualified substitute teacher for the last 4 years, so have a working knowledge of state standards for all subjects; especially math. My "ace in the hole" in teaching is the fact that I care for students and they know it. I do make it well known that I am there to teach; not be their friend (or their parent!). I typically set the limits, introduce the lesson, focus on learning the content, and be attentive to individual needs. Assessment is done through answering and asking questions. Also, reviewing and an extended assighnment is used to reinforce learning. My overall goal as a teacher is to guide a student to be an independent learner and t

I am a firm believer of a very structured classroom. I want my students to have a place where they can feel safe. I let the students know what I expect of them and how the classroom will be run. My students understand that there will be consequences for inappropriate behavior. I allow the students to be themselves and I strongly encourage creativity. I understand that I have to adjust my lessons in order to reach various types of learning styles. I want my classroom to be a warm, caring, and structured environment for the optimal learning. It is very rewarding to work with the students and see them blossom. I feel that no student is a "lost cause" and that everyone has the right to learn. I am DE, NJ and PA certified K-6 as well as 7-9 Middle Level Science and English. I have experience teaching Integrated Language Arts to eighth grade students using a study skills and novel base

My passion for teaching is open forum. I meet the students where they are. some are visual, some hands on and some automated. I pace the student and test in areas of weakness. I provide computer advance learning as well as class and peer mentoring. I use all types of devices such as field trips, school resources, library and hands on life experences to get the students more involved. I like the student to process information by coming to the board and classroom prompts to get students involved in the daily lesson.
