Teaching is a dream job since you get to directly see the results of your work. You can watch your students improve in front of your eyes and this is a result of your motivational skills. The students do the work but you are the one who reaches their inner core to pull out their ability to achieve. For each student you must find what motivates them and press those buttons. My role is to get students to believe in themselves and then to guide them through the process of education. Positive reinforcement is the key to their success. Frequently they were never given that opportunity. I make them believe in themselves and make learning fun at the same time. As an ESL ( English as a second language) teacher, I taught students at all levels, from elementary to advanced. I prepared students for exams such as the Cambridge First Certificate, TOEFL and TOEIC. I taught Business Management and Mark

I like to differentiate my instruction so that all students can access the curriculum and I keep track of my performance through regular assessments and using the RTI (Response to Intervention) process.

As a college graduate I believe strongly that the four years I spent perfecting, or at least expanding my literacy, comprehension, communication, and written skills, makes me a qualified canidate to tutor others, and help them improve on those same related skills. I have also had a lot of expereince with kids, working at daycares and afterschool programs where some teaching is required. With the level of education I have in the area of English, plus time spent in teaching environment, would also make me a strong canidate. My teaching style is based on patience, creativity, and an understanding that everyone has different learning style. It is very important to me that I offer different approaches or different examples or ways to learn. Some kids learn visually, hands on, orally ext.

Children deserve the best education possible. I feel my teaching can contribute to their success in the classroom and enhance their learning experience. Teaching should be structured to ensure that student needs are met. Teaching should be creative so that students are involved in the process. Students should be provided a learning environment where they can grow to their full potential. As a Special Education teacher, I am expert at creating lessons that will reach your student. I have worked specifically with elementary level reading and interventions, but also have worked with middle and high school students in literature, writing and grammar.
