Guiding Students to Succeed

Use a balanced blend of motivational and targeted instruction methodologies to enhance curricula, focus on the three ‘R’s - rigor, relevancy and relationships. I use innovative methods and materials to produce effective learning experiences including cooperative learning, thematic instruction and differentiation.
I specialize in helping students improve their reading skills. I work with students as young as 5 who need to improve their reading skills or just learning phonics and how to read. In addition to reading, I have helped students prepare for the 4th grade VA SOL in history, 5th grade Science SOL, and the reading SOL's in grades 3,4, and 5. I have guided, taught, mentored, and coached students from kindergarten through fifth grade to help boost their confidence and competencies. I am an enthusiastic, creative, and passionate educator, who believes that all children ... read more

Specializing in Out-of-the-Box Thinking for All Learners

I love to incorporate art and sensory experiences into everything I do to really activate the brain. The "Drill and Kill" is very rarely appropriate, so I tailor every approach individually. What works for one student may not work with another. My formal training includes many intervention types and experience with multiple programs and curricula, so I have a large pool from which to draw...then we get creative! My style REALLY aims for those over-arching foundational skills like critical thinking, thought organization, and problem solving. I will also track and provide data to monitor progress and hold myself accountable for effectiveness.
Let's start out by saying I am definitely not your average tutor! Fun is vital to motivation, and I live on the stuff! I have been teaching for over fifteen years in a variety of environments, working in inclusive environments with children ... read more

My comments on tutoring Elementary Social Studies : I am highly qualified to to tutor all levels of elementary social studies and geography.

I have over of 30 years of progressive experience in tutoring young children in the elementary years of education in all subject matter areas. My specialty is literacy and reading, but I am also adept in teaching all of the math curricula as well. I also firmly believe that teaching organizational skills and proper research methodologies are very important for the classroom today--and every child needs these skills in order to excel in the classroom and survive. I am also a qualified art teacher in the NOVA area.
I believe in tutoring so that the child receives feedback and fully understands his/her own limitations and how to overcome obstacles in class. Many children lack positivity in the methodology! I also believe that using art instruction helps children to learn in a more creative manner.

I tutored my neighbor in all aspects of english. Had her read books out loud and comprehend what she was reading, also taking words from the book and having her spell it out. I help my community of kids with their studies and my own friends whenever they need help with school work. Lately I've been helping a friend out with her geometry homework after school.

I taught in the Wright City RII School District for 26 years, at both high school and middle school level. During that time I taught everything from English and American literature to basic grammar and writing skills. I also taught some reading classes. I have extensive experience in writing research papers and strong skills in grammar and punctuation. I was an assistant principal for two years, and helped develop a reading program for the middle school. As a professional teacher tutoring students was an essential part of ensuring success for many of my students.
I believe all children can learn. A good teacher tries to find each child's individual learning style and accomodate lessons to match it. I also think learning should be fun, so I use a lot of games and other incentives. I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and have age and the experience of being the mother o ... read more
