I started tutoring in 2009 through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kentuckiana. I tutor my "Little" for an hour once a week. I help with whatever subject they need. My specialty is Language Arts, but if you need help with basic math, I can do that too. I have observed many elementary, middle school, and high school classes. I know what works best, especially since I'm going to become a high school language arts teacher in a few years. I'm patient. I'll try and make my lessons easy to understand. I know how frustrating language arts can be, but I also know how rewarding it can be as well. I can relate very easily to high school students, because I just graduated from high school 5 years ago.

My teaching style is to make sure my teaching is inclusive so that every child can actively participate in the learning experience. Differentiation is an important method I use to help those students who struggle in certain areas. I have been teaching now for a total of four years. However, I have been working in the educational field for eight years. Prior to becoming a teacher, I worked as a library clerk. Also, I have experience as a tutor. I tutored for two years in an after-school program at a local church in my community. Currently, I am a special education teacher at Frederick Law Olmsted Academy North in Louisville, Kentucky. I mainly teach sixth grade language arts classes. My skills and knowledge of how to effectively educate students have continued to improve over the years. The summative evaluations I have received each year as a teacher have been positive. Administrators

Pick out what's good and encourage that. It is too easy to focus on the negative. As a writer who understands rejection very well, it has humbled me. Another set of eyes always helps during the editing process. Sometimes a writer just needs to be set on the correct path, and they can do much of the rest from there. Being a parent has also taught me patience, which is something any teacher needs. Also, reading helps you become a better writer. I think when I was younger I didn't want to hear that as much, but it's true. While I have made a living as a technical writer in the software industry for sixteen years, part of making a life has been through my creative writing. I have written eighteen screenplays, three adult fiction manuscripts, three nonfiction manuscripts, two YA manuscripts, and now I hope to have found my niche as a middle grade novelist.

I have studied english in college. I know how to write and how to write to get the good grades. I have enjoyed life to the fullest and in the same sense gained most of my experience from enjoying the companies of others. I have traveled and lived in other countries. What I get most out of life is the experience and new opportunities presented to us daily. Each person is different and each life is played out in a different manner. You can make your life the greatest thing that you have ever lived, but it is up to you. You have to find that inner self that drives you to become a better person. You have to question everything. Know and understand that one day you will leave this earth. What will you have accomplished? My teaching style is to meet the student and learn his or her personality. Each student is a different individual with different learning styles. When you can incor
