An Exceptional Teacher for Exceptional Students!

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 mainstreamed in the general education classroom all day. In the interrelated classroom, not only did the students learn the academic standards on their level, but they were also taught social skills, and life skills.
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 ... read more

I have recently come to realize that I really enjoy working with students of all ages. However, my passion is still definitely for the elementary age students. While studying at Mercer, I had a professor tell me that she truly believed every child could be reached. I have now taken this to be my belief and truly do believe that every single child can be reached and helped to find the area that they excel in. I am an extremely patient and friendly teacher who helps her students find and meet their full potential whenever possible.
As a graduate of Mercer University, I have had the opportunity to work with students in many different grades while completing my many student teaching experiences. After graduating, I began working on my Master's Degree in Elementary Reading and Mathematics with Walden University. I am only two classes short of completing my degree and will have it ... read more

I believe that students learn in a variety of ways and demonstrate their understand in many ways as well. Therefore, I strive to help students learn what type of learner they are by identifying their strengths and weaknesses and utilizing those in teaching. I also use Bloom's Taxonomy to take learners from learning knowledge to critical thinking. My strength in teaching is my ability to make a connection of the student and being approachable. This had allowed me to be an exciting part of a child's education and ultimately their future as an adult and contributor to society.
Prior to earning my degree in education, I was a sign language interpreter for the Deaf.

I believe that it is essential to expect excellence and encourage that in the learning child. I believe that all life activities and situations can become a class for the young child and that positive input is the only acceptable criteria. Achedemic learning can be so much fun and can be applied to any segment of a child's daily activities. I have found that if a child feels that the teacher genuinely cares for him/her, that child can exceed even his/her own expectations. I understand the learning process and highly respect the individualized patterns that it can take. This is a part of the thrill of teaching and watching the light go on in a child.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with all children. I believe that my teaching should be differientiated to fit the learning style of each student I work with. This is because all children learn differently and i have to use which strategy that works best with each particular student. All children can learn and succeed if they were given the opportunity.
As a special education major and history minor, I have learned so much about helping children succeed. I am currently working toward my bachelors degree at Brenau University. This has enabled me to do various field experiences and an internship that deals with children of various ages. I have worked with all subjects from grades K-12. I have a social studies concentration with my major.

What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education system. I have found this method to be very effective. The other method is patience. Students who strugge with their academic learning usually are having other areas of difficulty which may be social learning. Having clinical training allows me to make a more accurate assessment.

While pursuing my bachelor’s degree, I took an interest in tutoring children. I began my tutoring experience as a volunteer at a local elementary school near the college. I also branched out and began tutoring adolescents in a juvenile detention center. After completing my undergraduate degree, I obtained a position teaching 8th grade math/special education. I also taught third and fourth grade written language and math through a local program while completing my coursework for my master’s degree. Through my six years of experience, I have worked with all grade levels and tutored in English, math, science, and grammar. My strongest subjects are English, writing and math grades 1-8th.

My teaching style is to be very patient with the students. They are in a learning process for a difficult subject that the student is trying to master. Making the environment a comfortable environment so the student can move forward with their progressing in the subject is vital. For example, for my elementary students, I created games to keep their interest. The attention span of children can become really short when it comes to subjects they do not understand. All in all, ensuring that the student is comfortable in the learning environment is the best environment for one to endure.
As a college graduate, I have been a driven individual to achieve my goal in the teaching industry. I currently have a degree in Chemistry. With this degree, I have mentored high school juniors and seniors, assisted in mathematic classes and used some of the techniques in my classroom. I am working o ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a child with dyslexia, I struggled through elementary school. As a young adult I acquired methods of compensating for my challenges and found myself excelling academically. I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees with honors. I truly understand the plight of children who are struggling. The knowledge base I have developed in special education has provided me the opportunity to successfully work with children of various ability levels. Over the years, I have found that my creativity, patience and problem solving abilities allow me to enrich the academic experiences of many students. Throughout the past eleven years I have enjoyed the challenge of tutoring students from kindergarten to fifth grade.
I believe that all children can be inspired to be life-long learners. The responsibility of the teacher in this process is to identify the learning style of each child and c ... read more
