“I am not a teacher, but an awakener.” Robert Frost

I am an educator with 27 years of experience. I have both taught and tutored grades K-12. I have a special needs, vocational, and assessment background. I love teaching and working with students. I am very patient, easy-going, and encouraging. My teaching approach is creative and imaginative. I use methods to make lessons fun and enjoyable. I believe in using "the whole language approach," which helps to reinforce several skills at the same time. I am able to communicate my thoughts and ideas very clearly. My philosophy is that any subject can be learned, if it's presented in the correct way.
I use a creative, hands-on teaching style. I break things down and present them in simple sequence, so students don't become overwhelmed. I am very patient. I try to incorporate fun, imagination, and creativity into learning activities.

Orton-Gillingham Trained Reading Specialist

I have been teaching for 28 years of teaching; 9 years as a classroom teacher (grades 2-8) and 19 years as a reading specialist (grades K-6). I am trained in teaching Orton-Gillingham and have worked with many dyslexic students. As a reading specialist I work with struggling readers to improve their phonological awareness, phonics, comprehension, fluency, writing about reading, and vocabulary.

I have experience in both suburban and urban schools working with children of varying abilities and skill levels. I completed my official Student Teaching experience in a Kindergarten classroom in a suburban school in the Westerville City School District. Outside of Otterbein, was also a volunteer literacy tutor for a 3rd grade student in the Westerville City School District.

I have worked with at-risk elementary students since 1993. I have taught Kindergarten and second grade for an inner city Catholic School, and fourth grade for West Carrollton City Schools. I also worked 8 years for a company that provided Title 1 services to non-public schools in the city of Dayton. I have worked for West Carrollton City Schools since 2006, the last six years as an Intervention Specialist for 4th grade IEP students and students in the RTI process.
My teaching style is very individualized with an emphasis on the strengths of the student. I feel it is important to build a positive relationship with the student centered on success and trust. I believe in setting realistic goals with children and developing and working toward the goal.
