I work very hard to see the greatest increase in the shortest amount of time. I enjoy teaching, and I have plenty of experience with a variety of teaching styles. I have taught gifted children, challenged children, and average children. I have seen great success with all of my students. I have unique teaching styles that I have acquired over the years.

A Little Bit About Me...

It is my belief that every student yearns to acquire an education. Accordingly, it is the responsibility of the instructor to find that spark and create a learning regimen geared towards that students specific method of learning. I tend to lead by example in an effort to relate to the student. I find that this method of operation creates a sense of willingness from the student, as well as establishes a sense of trust.

I teach in a style that relates to the students current conditions. Each lesson is tailored to bring reality, and importance to their lives while not challenging their autonomy. It is critical to get each student to understand the far reaching importance of historical events, and how they still effect today's atmosphere. I use various graphic organizers to break down each historical event we talk about, and candid discussion gaging the depths of comprehension.
As a graduate of Northern Illnois, and with currenty enrollment in NC Teach at Western Carolina a commitment to excellence in education would be an understatment.

More About This Tutor...

I absolutely enjoy working with students of all ages. I place a high value on education because there is no replacement for this key component in a student’s quest for success. I have several years experience as a volunteer coach and understand all too well the delicate balance that exists between teaching, encouragement and constructive analysis. I am a hands-on teacher and firmly believe that clear instructions unified with connected repetition are vital for material comprehension. All students can not only meet, but exceed their academic expectations when given the right tools combined with positive reinforcement

A Little Bit About Me...

I was a peer tutor in high school for English and Spanish. I also tutored children in Hebrew at a local temple. In addition, I volunteered as a tutor for underprivileged children in Chicago in all areas: Spelling, Reading, Writing, Math, Language, etc. for grades K-8.
I love to work with children of all ages and genders. I have worked with children who have learning disabilities, physical disabilities as well as children of all ages, races, and genders. I attempt to make learning as fun and relevant to the child as possible as every child has varying levels of understanding and concentrations. I am extremely patient and can handle anything. I like to relate learning to childrens' lives (make it about basketball if the boy likes basketball, or about chocolate if the girl likes chocolate).

More About This Tutor...

I understand that any child can run into problems with schoolwork. I try to find out why the child is having a problem before trying to help them. Did he miss something and fall behind? Is she simply bored with the subject? The approach I take with the child depends on the answers to these questions. I feel it is important for the learner to understand that there is a reason for making the effort to learn each subject. In math, I like to assign the numbers and equations to subjects the learner likes, such as pizza, sports or music, for example. I also find it is beneficial to make references to the different careers one might use the knowledge learned in the child's classes.

As a graduate in one of the top liberal arts colleges in the nation, I received an education that enhanced my skills as a writer, as a leader, and as a thinker. I worked as an assistant teacher for the Spanish department where I conducted speaking drills to improve the proficiency of Spanish for elementary level students. I also frequently led class discussions to garner confidence in speaking Spanish. During my senior year at Davidson College, I researched and wrote a thirty-five page thesis regarding the portrayal of women in two Latin American dictatorship novels. I currently work in the mental health field providing primary care and guidance to youths. I enjoy sharing with them the knowledge I have gained throughout my life.

I believe that all students, regardless of gender, socioeconomic environment or ability, can learn and should be challenged with creative and applicable opportunities to achieve their best. Understanding that not all individuals learn in the same way, at the same rate or retention level, my responsibility as an educator is to create a safe learning environment that facilitates academic, social, and emotional growth that is developmentally appropriate. This enables those students entrusted to me to become active and contributing members of the community and encourages life-long learning.
I obtained my licensure through NCTEACH in Specific Learning Disabilities. I am Highly Qualified by way of Praxis exam. I have taught grades 6-12 in almost all disability identifications primarily math and language arts; however, have supported various other subject areas.

I am a strong proponent of self-directed learning. The best retention of material and new skills comes when a student finds the subject engaging and is able to relate the subject to their own experiences, passions, and goals. All people learn differently; therefore, it is helpful when a student is able to learn particular methods and study skills that will continue to benefit their future learning. I love asking questions that allow a young person to reach their own conclusions. As a child, I felt very much empowered when teachers and mentors supported my own explorations and created the spaces for me to learn in my own way.

As a participant in a bilingual tutoring project, I thrived in connecting with my students and tailoring the lesson plan to their specific needs. I accompanied my students in the classroom, translated assignments from English to Spanish, and provided instruction entirely in Spanish. As a tutor in this program, I received invaluable experience working with at-risk youth from the ages of 9 to 14. These students had varying language proficiencies, and I learned much from helping all of them. In addition to my tutoring experience, I have had at least five years of experience as a peer reviewer both in the classroom for English literature and as a professional editor. I have tutored students in math, ESL, and English literature and composition.
