Certified Elementary Education teacher

I have tutored students for at least 4 years. I worked at an after school program while I was getting my degree and helped students in their studies. My passion is to work with children as most of the time I end up learning from them just as much as they learn from me. I would love to work with your child.
I like to meet the students first and then together we can work out a method of learning that is best for that student.

Basic Learning Skills is one of my top subjects!

I make learning fun! I try to make it as practical as possible. I realize I may need to teach a skill in a couple different ways for the student to grasp it.
I have been a Literacy Coach for 6 years. I am trained in a variety of reading and phonics programs. I have taught grades K-4, reading, and have tutored students Pre-K through 5. I have taught in Florida, Wyoming, and South Carolina. No matter where I have taught, my students have been successful, because I take them from where they are to where they need to go!

A Little Bit About Me...

consistent
Most recently, I have been doing SAT Tutoring. In the past, I have done homework help for children with ADHD, autism, cognitive disorders, developmental delays, behavioral problems, focusing difficulties and time management. I have made a lot of progress with many children who seemed to be having a very difficult time. Children and teens just need someone patient and willing to work with them.

Building Future Business Minded Youth

I am a hand-on type of teacher. I realized that people have various ways of learning so I must adapt to his or her learning style in order for the student to become succeful at the topic that they are trying to learn.
I have had 5+ years of experience in a coporate business environment. In this environment, I coached customer service representatives of varies levels on how to become more customer service savy and business minded. I believe it is very important fro one to posses the skills that are needed to become sucessful in today's society. These skills not only include the fundamentals of school (math, science, language arts, social studies, and etc) but they also inclde how to make yourself more marketable to companies and polishing professional skills to become successful in college.

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : I worked as a teacher in a private school for children with dyslexia. My position was as a Language Fundamentals Teacher and I was trained using the Orton-Gillingham approach to teaching. This is a multi-sensory approach and very highly regarded as a successful approach for children with dyslexia and reading disabilities. It includes tutoring for reading, reading comprehension, writing, spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and other skills related to English basics. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Human Development from Vanderbilt University with a specialization in Special Education and a Master's Degree in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University. Both of my educational careers involved extensive training related to infant and child development, special needs and high-risk infant, child, adolescent, and family populations, and internships within numerous developmental centers, schools, and hospitals.

I have over 30 years of experience with infants, children, adolescents, and families, including work with infants and children in development of age appropriate skills. Much of my educational background revolved around varying disabilities, their behaviors, and their causes and effects. I have also had substantial experience working with special needs populations in the areas of developmental delays, medical, emotional, and mental health needs, working in teaching, clinical, supervisory, case management, and service coordination positions.

Time Tested Teacher

I began my 32 year teaching career in the field of music. I taught in the Visalia Unified School District in Visalia, California. I taught classroom music to children in grades 4-6. This was a job that required traveling from school to school encompassing 12 schools a week. During that time, I worked on completing a fifth year of college in order to obtain an elementary teaching credential from California State University, Fresno. Upon completion on my student teaching in a second grade classroom, I began a teaching position in Lindsay, California teaching 2nd grade for 4 years there. My next four years were spent substituting in the Rock Hill, SC school district after relocating from California due to my late husband's job transfer. I completed several long term as well as short term assignments. After that I secured a position teaching middle school math at Chester Middle Schoo ... read more

Basic Learning Skills is one of my top subjects!

I am a very open minded individual and I really try not to tailor my teaching style to a group, rather I try to find methods and strategies that work individually for each specific student. I include a variety of audio, kinesthetic, and visual means of teaching. I love incorporating technology in everything that I do with teaching! I am highly experienced with integrating iPads and other forms of media and technology to improve and enhance math and reading skills. I always feel that learning does not have to be a chore because we are not interested in the subject, rather we have to find ways to engage and make it meaningful to us. Learning and teaching does not have to happen just sitting down and directly talking and showing. I feel that it is should be more involved where the student must inquire and directly immerse themselves in it to be able to become individual thinkers and problem ... read more
