I love working with children. I believe that all child can learn. Some may need different way or even different materials to find academic success. I think of myself as a facilitator in the child"s learning. This is a learner-centered teaching style that is very compatible with teaching children of all ages. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Elementary Education and BA in Special Education-MR, LD, ED, which has enabled me to gain an understanding of children with special needs. In addition, I have learned extensive reading skills due to the extended course work I have taken. During the past 8 years I have tutored students in reading skills and comprehension strategies.

I love to tutor, and I am very knowledgeable about English and French. I believe I am effective as a tutor due to my patient and reinforcing personality, and I communicate my love of learning to my students. I use a variety of creative approaches to language learning which I have developed over the years. I believe in the inherent worth and potential of every student. My goal is not only to impart knowledge and learning strategies, but also to be a "coach" and a "cheerleader" in order that the student enjoy the learning process and feel supported. I have worked as a writing tutor with a diversity of college students, ages 16-70, at Yavapai College, Prescott Campus, for the past ten years and continue to do so. I also worked at Yavapai College testing ESL students for several years during those years. In 1995, I taught English to elementary and middle school children in PR China for

I earned my BA in PR and Journalism. My course of study required me to be able to write and spell correctly, as well as being able to form grammatically correct sentences. During and after college, I held jobs that required me to write articles, media releases, do research, and serve as a media rep for a large corporation. I taught for two years at Yavapai College as an adjunct instructor. After acquiring an MS, I worked in the human services field that also included much teaching...but in different subjects. I am proud of my students. I spent one year in South Korea, teaching English to students K-12, and one year in China, teaching at a State University. My superior at Yavapai College who monitored my classes in order to write his evaluation, remarked once that "...you have the patience of an angel." I don't know whether this is entirely correct since I haven't had a personal encount

After earning a bachelor's degreee in Psychology and receiving my Elementary Education certification at Gonzaga University in 2007, I worked at Mario Umana Middle School Academy teaching environmental education in Boston. I currently work as a teacher's assistant in a Supported Learning Center program for students with Asperger’s Syndrome. I work one-on-one with high school students in the program, assisting them with work in math, science, English and social studies. Additionally, when I was in high school, I worked as a math tutor for algebra students. The concepts and techniques I learned from my education classes have been invaluable in differentiating my instruction and supporting each student based on his/her needs and abilities. Although I have taught in a regular classroom setting, I have found that I am most successful working one-on-one with students. I love that in tutoring I
