A Little Bit About Me...

I want all children to have a chance. I feel that as a graduate of an accredited university, I am qualified to help the children get to where they need to be. With a quality education, they can begin to explore a world of so many possibilities. I want to let the children know that there are many choices in the world and that by steadily climbing up that educational ladder, the possibilities are endless.
I have received my BA in Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice. Combining the the two fields has enabled me to work with many different people of many different age groups. I have gained a news sense of respect for individuals who want to make a life for themselves and want to advance to higher levels of education.

I am a college graduate that has spent the past 8 years working in health and science education and development. During this time I have not only developed educational programs for low literacy and bilingual groups, written grants for government funding for Health educations, but I learned how to educate people of all types of literacy levels. I have tutored students of all ages in the areas of English, Biology and Health Science.
My teaching methods are structured and developed for each individual person. I believe that there are many ways to teach a student. The key to successful teaching is finding out how your student learns; auditory, visual, didactic or with a combination of learning styles. I use a combination of visual and didactic aids in my lectures. I encourage an environment where questions are welcomed. I want students to not just learn the material but understand ... read more

I have served as a substitute teacher in Hayward, CA for 1 1/2 years. I worked as a tutor for Learning & Loving It in San Jose, CA for 3 years. I served as a tutor and teacher of adult education in Loganville, GA for 1 year. I am currently on the substitute teacher roster for the Vicksburg School District, and I have been so for two years.
I first introduce myself and get to know a little about the student I am tutoring. Then, I establish a baseline of what they have learned so that I can direct my attention to their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, I get into the material with the student and show them how and why the material is important and applicable in the world in which we live.

It is my belief that all have the right to receive a thorough and complete education. Children who enter the system at kindergarten should be surrounded by an environment where they can achieve their maximum potential. Their curiosity should be stimulated at a young age, and that along with an organized and developed program, will aid these students in disciplining themselves in whatever subject they study. Reading and writing are the cornerstones of education and should always be emphasized above all else. The purpose of education is to prepare a person for life. As educators, we want to make sure that during these years, students are exposed to all that they need for a foundation on which they will build a meaningful career.

I am an enthusiastic teacher. I am passionate about what I teach, and I prepare well and research topics when needed so that I can be the most effective teacher possible. I believe that students are unique and learn in different ways; thus, I provide a wide range of learning experiences to help my students learn and succeed academically. I care about my students as individuals, and I work to incorporate their interests into my teaching so that they are more motivated to learn. I believe that the most important principle I can teach my students is how to develop a love for learning. This will help them succeed throughout their entire lives.

I love children and I love teaching them. I believe in an individualized style of teaching that caters to a child's individual needs. Because I love teaching, I am a patient and caring teacher. I believe every child can learn, and implement a way of learning around that belief. I like to make a difference and "see the light come on". When it does, I know I have done my job.
Following my graduation from USM, I had many experiences teaching a variety of children from many cultures. Having taught in a DODDS school in Karlsruhe, Germany I was exposed to the German way of teaching. My first year of teaching was in an inner city school thar offered many challengs. I believe my experience teaching children from diverse backgrounds prepared me to handle any situation in the teaching environment.

I hold a passion for and driven to put all the energy I have into children, no matter what their current learning style is. I do not accept, I can't, or It's too hard from any child, or children I am in the presence of. I truly am a firm believer that every child has the ability and is capable of excelling to the highest as long as they see there are educators who are interested in their learning and education. Because of my previous office skills and education, I have become even more patient, willing, and determined to make sure students get all the knowledge possible so they can be all they can. Wisdom is knowledge, knowledge is understanding, and students must have and be guided by educators in order to receive the best education.

I have a passion for education. I desire to see others succeed holistically in their life not just academically. I have a degree in business with several years in management. I also am seeking my education certification through the alternate route process. I have 4 years of volunteer tutoring service working with K-5th grade in all subjects. I enjoy reading and writing along with math. I believe every child can learn and is smart.
I do understand that from my years of tutoring that each child has to be taught differently. In my tutoring session, I have to be creative hands on with some of the students so they can visually see and understand the objective.
