A Little Bit About Me...

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 nove ... read more

The University of Delaware has integrated me into the education field with a variety of experiences. I will earn my degree in May of 2011, becoming certified in Elementary Teacher Education and Middle School Social Studies. Over the past few years, I have strengthened in my ability to work with students of diverse needs and present effective instruction for the particular learner. This increases the student's motivation and desire to learn. From the opportunity to study abroad in Spain and Italy, I was exposed to different cultures broadening my understanding of human nature. Part of my course work has included developing unit plans, lesson portfolios, assessments and materials for students.
As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As I mentioned in the above paragraph, I meet the child where they are in their learning style. I can adapt to how they learn best and then use different activities and tools to again, "drive home" the concept of what the child may be struggling with. I love teaching anything!
When I graduated with my Bachelor of Science degree in 2002, I accepted a job at a small school in upstate NY that needed a PE teacher. I quickly learned to just relax and "go with the flow" of how the students learned the material and what kind of different activities that we could do to "drive home" the concept of what we were studying. I also learned to be very flexible. I wore many many different hats that first year of teaching which has given me to experience I needed in my recent years of teaching. I am passionate about sports, athletics, history and teaching as a whole!

I have been blessed with several years of teaching experience in both Christian and public schools. I have had the opportunity to work with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade; this has provided me with valuable experience in working with each age group. I have also instructed adult foreign students in basic conversational English. I have recently tutored community college students in English, sociology, and mathematics.
I have developed an interrogative style of teaching in which I seek to ask the right questions and guide the students to the correct conclusions. I have found this to be far more effective than simply lecturing. I also seek to connect illustrations from everyday life and current events to the course material (when it is fitting to do so). I seek to build rapport with each of my students and "meet them where they're at." I believe that the compli ... read more

As a non-traditional student I gave a good deal of thought as to what career to go into. I love working with students and enjoy providing an environment that is customized based on the student's individual learning style. I believe all students have a desire to succeed, but frequently struggling students have lost touch with that part of themselves. I would like to offer students an opportunity to reach their maximum potential. I have personally witnessed students transformed when they found a personal connection with the materials they are studying.
I graduated with honors with my AA from ACCC and maintained a 3.4 at Stockton College. While in school as a non-trad. student I have been a full time sub. teacher at Mainland Regional and Ocean City High Schools subbing for 9 years.I have worked with students of all ability levels from the special needs to gifted students.

As a student and teacher, I have been driven to excel personally and to help my students achieve excellence as well. I have earned a Master's Degree, two bachelor degrees and two certifications, MEd in Spanish and BA in English and Spanish as well as K-12 certification in Spanish and ESOL. These degrees have enabled me to gain understanding in many areas of language and English skills such as grammar, writing and research papers. Over the past nine years I have taught and tutored students in English, ESL and Spanish.
I love teaching and helping students to reach their fullest potential. Since each student learns differently, I believe the most successful education involves discovering each student's learning style and strengths to best enhance them as well as identifying weaknesses to develop strategies to develop them. I am patient, dedicated and considerate. I believe that ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator, I have tutored students in mathematics and English from grades 4 through college level. I have taught songwriting in summer camps, 4th grade language arts and ESL to high school kids fresh from Korea. Also, as a Youth Advocate, part of my job description was helping my kids with school work and homework.
LOUD & LIVELY! I like to make the lessons I teach interesting and involvement is key. If I can educate and entertain (a tool I use), I command participation, respect and learning. Due to my style, students, once in a while, think it's all fun and games. I am also an enforcer of rules. If you want to continue to have learn and have fun, you better act right.

As a graduate of Wellesley College, I continaully strived to do achieve a high level of excellence. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I didn't get a teaching certification while I was in college. It is a profession which I would truly love. As the mother of two children, one of schoolage, I realize now that it would have been a great life choice for me. I have helped many people with their skills along the way, and I would love to do it in a tutoring format now.
Because I have a passion for learning, I love to share my own knowledge with others. Because of my own children, I understand that every person has their own style of learning and I love to discover that avenue for people to help them to grasp whatever it is they are trying to understand.

A Little Bit About Me...

My forte is adapting to the individual student. I have an inate ability to deciper the way each student's mind absorbs knowledge and I am flexible enough in my methodology to adjust to the necessary path. Although my approach is always conctructivist, my teaching methods vary from child to child. I was raised in the urban decay of the oldest neighboorhood in the country,yet private-school educated. I feel this blend adds to my overall mentoring ability.
I received my first tutoring credential in the early 1970's specializing in prep-school placement tests, college-board prep etc. While attending Grad-School (Temple University) in the mid-70's; I worked as a substitute teacher in the Arch-Diocese of Phila. on a high-school level, primarily instructing History. At seventeen I completed the Evelyn Wood speed reading course, not that that is directly relevant to my teaching style. Du ... read more

I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated teacher. I want students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. I have focused on instilling in my students a love of learning. I believe it takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a student. Therefore, I have learned the value of being a team player and the importance of communicating with colleagues, parents, and administrators.
I have my BS in Psychology and BA in Art. In May 2003, I received my Masters of Education (M.Ed.) from the University of Maryland in College Park. My work towards this degree provided me with an extensive understanding of scientifically based research, lesson plan development, and teacher training skills.

My belief is that any student can master subject matter if it is presented in an organized manner at the student's level. My experience has been that many students have difficulty because the information has not been presented correctly. My goal is to have students achieve success in a stress free environment.
During the past sixteen years, I have taught a variety of subjects including Language Arts, Reading,Science,Spanish,and French.I have also taught middle school students that receive home instruction in all subject areas. Currently, I teach Spanish in Ventnor Schools. I received my education from the University of Pennsylvania and studied in Alicante, Spain. My French degree is from Penn State. In France, I worked in an adventure camp in the Ardeche. My recent undertaking has been teaching students to read through the Wilson Reading Program. Wilson is designed for s ... read more
