Special Education is one of my top subjects! I am a former Bibb County Special Education Teacher. I am certified to teach different exceptionalities such as ADHD, ADD, Emotional Behavior Disorders, MID, MOID, Autism, grades P-8th grades. I teach Reading/Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies. I am skillful with teaching one on one, and in group situations.

My teaching style is one of engaging, fun style. I believe that students should love to learn. Students should be allowed to academically express themselves to the teacher. This helps to facilitate learning. Appropriate questioning of the topic gets all students involved in the curriculum. I always help the students to relate to the topic by using prior knowledge. Differentiated instruction is given to all students in a caring, private method.
I am a former Special Education teacher from Bibb County. I taught in a interrelated classroom in both the elementary school level, and the middle school level. I taught reading, math, science, and social studies. I was a cooperative teacher, in which I worked with the general education teacher to assist her in helping our students with special needs. In the interrelated classroom, I worked with students who were not able to be mainst ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Each child is different. Each child has his/her own way of learning. I have learned that no two children learns alike and requires specific instruction. Many teachers stand in the front of the classroom and lecture, passes tons of paperwork out and call it teaching. Yes, in his/her own way she has taught, but has learning taken place. In most cases, NO. I will provide your child with the opportunity to thrive in whatever environment works for him/her. If it is pencil and paper, conversing, or with audio-visual(powerpoint,etc)..we will determine the medium that your child thrives in and allow he/she to blossom! My goal is to meet your child where he/she is and challenge he/she to maximize their potentials.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an Undergraduate student, I was engaged in a variety of eduactional settings from Substitute Teaching and working with students with disabilities to tutoring Kindergarteners in an Elementary school with reading, writing, and math. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders, a degree that has afforded me the opportuity to learn much about communication and literacy, but also much about the educational system. Having worked in two different school districs and a summer camp for children with disabilities as an academic counselor has taught me alot about how children learn.
I believe in each and every child as an individual, they are not just a number, name, or student; they are individuals with personality and unique abilities to learn in their own way. No two people learn the exact same way, and I am a dedicated and patient person who loves working ... read more

I believe each student is different, therefore their learning style is different. Patience is of utmost importance in working with children, especially in the educational setting. Children need constant guidance and motivation and understanding in order to be academically successful; and success is measured differently for each student.
I have a Bachelors degree in PSychology and a Masters degree in Social Work specializing in working with children/families. I have 13 years of experience working with children in the educational and home setting helping to mentor them by providing them with the tools necessary to be academically successful. I have not only counseled students in school but have assisted them in staying on tasks and completing assignments; as well as tutoring in reading, math, spelling, language arts, test taking, etc.

A Little Bit About Me...

My first tutoring experience occurred during my attendance at South Georgia College (SGC). At SGC I was a tutor for Student Support Services and was responsible for providing academic tutoring to my peers in various academic subjects. After graduating from SGC, I continued to provide tutoring services with the Sylvan Learning Center and the America Reads program at the University of Georgia. Under the provisions outlined by these programs, I provided academic tutoring in reading and mathematics to students in elementary, middle, and high school. As a soon-to-be graduate student from the University of Georgia’s School Counseling program, I have received more than adequate training and have acquired years of experience that I feel will help me fulfill my life long aspiration of helping children reach their full academic potentials.
As an educator, I recognize the importance of tea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My style of teaching involves discussion, reading, writing, and hands on. if possible. I strive to get my students to feel comfortable which I find brings out creative thinking. I have experience teaching students with slow or difficult learning abilities and students with handicaps such as blind or deaf. My department dean saw my abilities in working with special needs students and placed the students in my classes. I believe one-on-one teaching builds trust with students and relaxes them. I motivate students by installing a positive outlook in the students mind. While in the USN, I and was selected by the Admiral of the Naval War College as the Command Career Counselor where I guided enlisted sailors in their naval career.
I strived to achieve the maximum while earning my degrees because I understand the importance of education. I possess a BS in Information technology and a MBA ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring has taught me that perseverance and patience are the keys to tackling tough situations, and I try to pass that along to others. I am very versatile when it comes to teaching various age groups. I try to keep my sessions exciting, but focused and instructional. I teach to each to the unique style of the individual student and when instructing a medium to large group, I adjust to the majority learning style;moreover,"no student is left behind."
It is my belief that I do not truly master subjects until I can teach it to others. Thus, I view tutoring as an essential component of the learning process. With respect to my tenure as a tutor in the community of Tuskegee, Alabama and on-campus,this has certainly been the case. From helping to ease students of their confusion in the laboratory, to leading review sessions in front of spacious lecture halls, my experiences as a tutor h ... read more
