Learning can be fun and exciting; it's all in our attitude!

I love working with students and my style is direct teaching; I feel that a student needs to master the concept being taught before moving on to the next level.
I have been in education for 18 years. I started in special education and general education. I taught math, English, reading, science, and history. I also taught the GED and the state test (CA). I tutored all subjects to homebound students. I facilitated reading programs and held workshops for teachers that taught special needs students. I was also a high school counselor for 5 years and have my credential in school psychology

ELAR Teacher: Getting your child engaged & invested!

Seasoned High School ELAR (English, Language Arts and Reading) Teacher, specializing in literary analysis, critical thinking and argumentation. While certified for secondary, I have experience working with elementary school students as well. All curriculum is personalized and determined through school work, test results, teacher comments, parental observations and needs-based assessments (if necessary). My goal as an educator is to expand on everything that works and change every component of everything that doesn't. I believe in teaching students in a manner that suits their needs not vice versa. Every lesson is meticulously planned. When teaching new material, the students learning style. Reteaching concepts involves a focus on the areas of weaknesses through repeated drills and exercises while tweaking areas of strength.
Unorthodox is the best way to describe my teaching style. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is a demonstrator. I like teacher-centered classes with an emphasis on demonstration and modeling. I try to act like a role model by demonstrating skills and processes and then as a guide in helping students develop apply theses skills and knowledge.
I have student taught for the past seven years. I have tutored countless individuals in English, Drama and American Sign Language. I am fluent in ASL and am very confident in my ability to teach others the beautiful language. I was heavily involved in theater for the past fifteen years and I can say that my experience has taught me more than any coach could and I am more than willing to share my experience. I took upper level English courses for the past six years and took teaching courses.

I am a caring teacher who is encouraging and helpful. I try to explain the material in a way so that students understand and keep trying different methods in order to determine how students learn best. Although I am very serious about helping students learn, I often use a lighthearted approach to help students loosen up and enjoy the learning process.
I am a certified teacher in English and Math with 5 years of experience teaching in both public and private schools. In addition, I have been tutoring for more than 15 years and teaching summer camps for young people for 10 years. I am an expert in helping students prepare for such tests as the TAKS, GED, ACT, and SAT.

I tutored while attending East Central University focusing on academics (Math/Reading) but I incorporated a moral and ethical component that was just as necessary.I followed a lesson plan that was created around the state requirements and added my own creativity and relevance.I have been a tutor and academic mentor with the AVID program for two years. All academic tutoring and probing is conducted through Socrates' method of questioning.I have learned various math strategies, the foundations of writing and benefits of teaching, tutoring and discussing at Costa's Level 2 or 3.I have personally learned and learned how to teach the cornell note-taking method and I see the benefits pertaining to comprehension and retention.

Due to my desire to increase my knowledge, I graduated a year early from my university with a BA in Psychology, and a minor in Political Science. I am currently in Graduate School, majoring in Community Counseling. This is because I have a great desire to work with people, and help them out. I spent two years as an AVID tutor, working in all subjects but specifically Psychology, History, Government and Economics, Math, and English.
I work with students very well. I make sure that they are able to connect with me, and enjoy the process of learning. It's important to like what you are studying, so that you can get the most out of it. I feel as though it is necessary for them to enjoy the setting they are in, and I do my best to accommodate them. Learning should not be something that students do not look forward to, contrary; they should be excited to learn something new. I make sure ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 1981 I received a double-bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Mathematics from Texas A&M Commerce. I tutored Math, basic skills through calculus I, and Computer Science for two years while attending the University. I have also tutored all middle-school subjects, especially reading and math, at Trinity River Mission tutoring facility in Dallas from 1991-1996. I feel capable of tutoring most high-school subjects including Algebra-Calculus, History, Politics and Science. I would be able to tutor beginning Calculus and/or Chemistry, but not without a little review. I have a very, very small Spanish language capability. I'm eager and ready to get started!
I love teaching and working with all children. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructive approach to learning. I try to build a child's se ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I don’t have one specific teaching style that I apply to all students. I adapt my style to the student’s learning style. I believe in positive reinforcement; not negative feedback. I believe that all students can learn; they just need the necessary tools. They need to have a belief in themselves and a desire to work hard, and they can be successful. I believe in helping students understand how the material can be applied to their everyday lives and how they will benefit by obtaining this knowledge. I believe real-world examples help students understand the importance of what they are learning. I do not necessarily share my opinions on a specific subject; rather, I share the facts and help the student form their own opinions.
I have a Master of Arts degree in Education and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Management. I have been an online adjunct professor and have numerous ye ... read more
