A Little Bit About Me...

I really love working with children. I am so enthusiastic when it comes to teaching children. I love what I do as a teacher. I am very enthused about helping your child in any academic area. I am a patient, enthusiastic, caring, and very outgoing person. I believe that every child can succeed if given the opportunities. I believe that no child should be left behind and that as an educator I believe in making a difference in the life of a child.
I received my Early Childhood Degree from Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville, IL. I started teaching thereafter. I have taught young children for 4 1/2 years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and helping others improve their abilities. Every student can learn it just requires finding a connection between their strengths and weaknesses. I understand that when a person is struggling it can be very frustrating for them. That's why it is important to me to be patient and considerate while working to reach the student's full potential. My reward is helping a student succeed and improving their educational experience.
With a BS in Architecture I have a strong background in math and science and I have always had a strong determination to excel in my education. Also while pursuing my degree I served as a teacher's assistant for multiple courses in my discipline. I also was a department tutor for three of my four years in college and I often worked with individuals or groups with various subjects that they were struggling with. My strengths are mathematics, scie ... read more

My style of teaching varies with the child, their age, personality, subject, and amount of time we have. Besides teaching 2nd grade religion for 14 years my daughter has ADD. I have worked with kids who need to keep moving while they learn, to kids who need complete quiet. Some kids are more visual learners; others need to act the lesson out, while others do fine quietly reading. The important thing is to make it interesting so they WANT to learn. Older kids with a higher level of maturity don't require as entertaining a lesson. They want to see how to apply what they are learning to their life. To know there is a reason to learn makes them WANT to learn, understanding WHY they will need to know the information makes the learning easier.

While my area of expertise is physical education, I have gained great experience in other areas of education while searving as an in house substitute for Highland Elementary. Serving as an in house substitute provided me with experience working with large groups, as well as working with students on an individual basis. This experience also provided me with the wonderful opportunity to work with students with special needs. I have also served 2 years as a full time physical education teacher, which gave me an opportunity to interact with students and further understand the learning process.
I believe the biggest key to learning is finding a way for students to relate to the information. Getting to know the student and relating thier interests to the material at hand is key to making a connection. I also believe it is critical to remain positive and supportive with students.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that all people fall short of their maximum potential. Finding the right motivation for people is a gift that I have. This is, however, no guarantee of success when dealing with the individual mind, but it does improve the circumstances. I can motivate, but I cannot do the work for a student, thus personal responsibility is a must for success. I write in a very concise and efficient manner. There is very little fluff in my compositions. I will promote logical thought, proper syntax, proper grammar, and essay layouts (according to the assigned format) for my students. I enjoy seeing people succeed and I am very proud of my students' achievements.
I am 36 years of age with three sons of my own. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Eastern Illinois University in General Studies with a Minor in Sociology. I have an Associates in Applied Science degree from Lake Land Colle ... read more
