A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children. I have helped with pre-K and grade school children with an emphasis on working with Autistic children. All children can succeed in school given the right tools; just because they do not get the idea from one method does not mean that they won't get it from a different method. I think that all children can learn regardless of age, learning ability or other status, if given a chance.
I spent two years teaching and tutoring Autistic children. I aided in routine skills, verbal skills and dealing with change. I have worked with two different children on these skills. I also have extensive skills in writing and researching for my research papers. I also have great knowledge of APA format and can write an essay in no time flat.

I became a tutor at the request of a professor, and this work has led me to discover the joys of teaching. I love assisting students with reading and writing and helping them to find in themselves ability, confidence, and enthusiasm. I am passionate about working with students to find methods of studying that work for them, as well as helping their academic work by addressing other issues such as social pressures, learning disabilities, and lack of motivation. I am committed to giving my students a new-found sense of strength and self reliance, as well as being a mentor and friend.
Due to my love of reading and writing I have chosen to pursue a degree in the Classics at Whitman College. In 2007 I was asked by a professor to privately tutor another student in Latin. I joined the team at the Academic Resource Center and have been tutoring college students in English and other wr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been an educator for over 10 years. Even as an undergrad, I was interested in working with children and spent my summers employed with the YMCA's youth programs. My experience is working with at-risk youth from kindergarten to high school seniors. My Master's degree in education combines coursework in special education and talented and gifted. I have tutored and taught students in all subjects both core curriculum and electives. My certification covers Kindergarten through Ninth grade.
I enjoy teaching. Working with a student one-to-one or even in small groups allows a student to have their individual needs met. Tutoring has the advantage of catching the student where they are struggling to comprehend. I am patient, creative, and prefer to model examples for my students. I believe that a strong foundation in the basics will help a student grasp more difficult concepts. ... read more

I love to teach reading! I have had wonderful mentor teachers who have taught me fun and most importantly, effective, differentiated ways to teach students to read and retain skills. I also like to teach math and writing. I will design lessons that will work for individual students and their specific needs.
I am currently finishing my last few weeks in my Student Teaching experience at the elementary level and will receive my teaching license this summer. I have been fortunate to have worked as both a GENERAL and SPECIAL EDUCATION Instructional Assistant. I love working with students of any level and am knowledgeable and comfortable working with students with special needs (Autism Spectrum, ADD/ADHD, Learning Disabilities, Cognitive).

I truly enjoy what I do. I love enabling students to achieve their goals, become self sufficient, and successful. I teach to the individual, looking for individual strengths and weaknesses; then modify my approach to meet the needs of the individual student. My goal is to enable the student to be and do their best.
I have many years of experience working with students of all ages and abilities. I have taught in public schools, in private schools, with troubled and behavior problem youth, incarcerated youths (13-20 years of age), as well as home-schooled students, small group, and one-on-one.

I love the field of education and am especially talented when it comes to working with elementary-aged students (all subjects). I enjoy tutoring older students in Spanish (I'm fluent), history, English, social studies, reading and E.S.L. My weak subjects for older students are math and science. I have a B.A. in Social Work with a Spanish minor. I have teaching certificates in elementary ed., special ed., teaching English as a 2nd Language & Spanish. I have an M.A. in International Relations. I have tutored students in E.S.L., reading, writing, Spanish and elementary math.
I strongly believe that education is a life-long learning experience, that children are able to learn from each other, that a teacher can facilitate the learning process and that students and teachers are able to learn from each other. I endorse the theory that all children can learn, but also recognize that ... read more

My philosophy towards education involves connecting with my students individually to motivate them and maximize their potential. Because children’s needs are so diverse, I am careful to set individualized, attainable goals for them. Otherwise, a frustrated child will quickly lose his excitement for learning. I believe in creating hands-on activities that trigger creative thinking, and I’ve found this technique promotes learning well beyond the immediate lesson. Also, I maintain a flexible environment, allowing my students to feel more control over their daily interests and lessons.
For the past three years I have taught first grade in Florida. For one year I tutored third grade students in a Saturday School program. I have worked for a learning center providing educational support to students of all levels during the summer. While teaching in Florida I obtained an ESOL endorsement ... read more

As a water safety instructor for the past 10 years, I have worked with children and adults of all ages and at all levels. I am passionate about teaching and about children.

I currently work with Kindergartners seven hours/day five days/week while I work on my MAED.
I absolutely adore children and the innocence and passion they bring to my life. I believe each child has his or her own particular learning style and method that works best for him as well as his or her own academic struggles. It is a teacher's job to find out what way to best reach each child individually and as a ... read more

I believe in a teaching approach that takes into consideration each child's unique culture. Not only is culturally appropriate teaching beneficial, it's necessary! I plan to implement interactive learning and integrate curriculum. In doing so, I am providing the student with possible ways to connect previous knowledge with the new content they are learning. I will present my students with the opportunity to learn in an environment containing differentiated instruction. In this way, I hope to find what methods are most efficient with each individual. This in turn will teach the student which methods work best for them, therefore increasing their ability to teach themselves.
Throughout my college experience, I have had multiple chances to volunteer as a classroom aide, tutor, and student teach. As I am certified to teach grades K through 8, I have taken college courses in all subject ... read more

I am here to help students improve in specific subjects and excel academically as a whole. My greatest attributes are patience, perseverance, and hard-work.

A Little Bit About Me...

Every child has a window of time when learning to write and read is at its peak. I’ve observed this can begin as early as three or four years of age. Yet the child who discovers his/her fascination with language at the age of eight is no less gifted. So I believe patiently leading children through auditory, kinesthetic and auditory learning channels will grant them opportunities to learn rapidly. Methods like Nellie Edge’s “Early Literacy” or the “Right to Read” program offer them these chances at appropriate ages in the classroom. Tutoring offers exceptional chances at all ages because nothing matches one-on-one assistance.
The voyage of deepening a child’s enthusiasm to write and read well is so delightful and satisfying! This revelation didn’t come in my writing courses in high school or college but when I taught my four children to read and write. Now that they’re all in colleg ... read more
