As a cum laude graduate, I have always strived to achieve the high goals I set for myself. During my student teaching semester of college, I managed to obtain a 4.0 grade point average while I performed every teaching task that was set forth for me. Before graduation I was offered a full time position teaching third grade with Cumberland County schools. During my year as a third grade teacher I became well versed in differentiating my teaching style to meet every student's needs. My students consistently did well on both standardized and classroom tests. Their scores were consistently the second highest in the grade level. I was also kept abreast to the latest theories and studies throughout the year as I attended several staff development courses. Through teaching students with learning disabilities and tutoring a sister with Down’s Syndrome, I learned not only are no two children

I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics. My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning must be relevant, interesting, and conducted in a highly accepting and supportive environment. I am keenly aware of the sense of inadequacy of students who come to tutoring services (I have been one myself in the past) and make special care to make all my students feel that improvement is possible for anyone. The knowledge and strategies that high performers utilize are not exclusive; anyone can learn with patience and the right tutor! I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT). A score of 1400 on the SAT allows me the cred

I believe that children learn best through exploring their environment and seeking out answers to their own questions. I believe curiosity drives a child's desire to learn and that inquiry based instruction allows children with different abilities, interests, experiences, and needs to succeed within the same classroom. It is necessary to look at each individual child to see where they are at and to meet them at that place. It is the teacher's role within the classroom to provide children with the proper materials and skills to become active members of a democratic society. I have recently graduated from Kent State University. I have earned a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education. I have completed over 1000 hours of field experience in various early childhood classrooms, including two semesters of student teaching. One semester of student teaching was in a Head Start Pre-k

Earning a degree in Communications accelerated my skills in writing through Journalism, research papers and Rhetorical studies. Additionally, writing is something I enjoy and practice on a daily basis. It has been a number of years since I have tutored a child however, I would like to incorporate my vocational experience as well as my collegiate studies into my teaching practices. I would love the opportunity to teach grade school children. It was during my formidable years that I can recall a young lady who impacted my education in a very significant way. Additionally, I also have very fond memories of several children who I mentored through tutoring. My innate enthusiastic nature has facilitated a strong desire with the children to participate in the learning process in many unique ways. I gain tremendous joy and satisfaction through observing this process.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Art and Design and have used my degree in the fields of Photography and Graphic Design. I am currently getting my teaching certificate for Art Education K-12 so that I will be able to pass my passion of Art on to others. In my spare time I enjoy painting along with some figure drawing. I have a website where you can check out some of my work www.lmpaintings.com. When I worked as a Photographer a lot of my work was based around school systems so I worked closesly with students ages K-12 on a daily basis. I also worked as an intern at an after school art studio for high school students when I was in college. So, I have had lots of experience being around students. I believe in a very hands on teaching style. Learning form experience is the best way to learn. Especially in visual arts, the more you dive into a medium the better versed you can become in it.

I love working with children and have a passion for making the future greater by helping our children be more successful. With a background in dance I have a very creative teaching style with a knack for discovering new ways to learn. I am a very patient person, which allows me to work well with any temperament. I believe children can focus better on learning if their teacher or tutor focuses better on how they learn. Anyone can be successful in their education with the proper direction. All through school I have had a passion for learning. This passion continued into college where I earned two degrees from Columbia College. While earning two Bachelor of Arts degrees in Dance and Religion, I have gained knowledge in critical thinking through applying learning to life, English and grammar through writing papers and reports, and many daily skills acquired through general education cour

I greatly enjoy teaching and developing children of all ages. As a teacher I am constantly challenged to understand each student’s individual needs and to present the material in a way that produces the most joy and therefore increases material retention. I have high expectations for all of my students and make sure they know I believe in them. Filled with confidence and introduced to the right learning experiences, all students have the ability to succeed. With a BS in Physics and a Masters in Business I greatly enjoy the challenge of academics. I have been a classroom teacher for over 6 years and have tutored students from Pre-K through college age in areas of English and math. I enjoy seeing my students excel.

As an honors graduate from the University of South Florida, I grew up with a strong foundation in education. I spent my senior year of high school (when most people are occupied by senior year activities and proms) in college doing the Early Admissions Program. I graduated early from both high school and college with honors. During my college career, I held three internships - two of which were in education and the arts. I am dedicated to enthusiastic and dynamic teaching as a means of creating and nurturing a lifelong love of learning for students of all ages. I will use a wide variety of teaching aids and implementation strategies to engage and enlighten students in active learning. It is important to encourage youth and adults to express their talents in a moralistic and life-changing manner.

I have participated in two summer school programs (2nd and 4th grade) in NYC that helped prepare students to retake state tests in the areas of math and literacy. I have also been tutoring full-time in Brooklyn, NY for two children ages 8 and 10. Along with this I worked in a recreation center and helped children with their homework from first grade to eighth for two years. I have a teacher certification from birth to grade two and have a BS in Psychology. I have worked with students who are native Spanish speakers and also students with learning disabilities. In my classsroom this past year I had the opportunity to work one-on-one with a student who has language delays, emotional and behavior problems. I was able to cooperate with both his speech teacher, parents, and SIET in order to create a program that worked best for him. I have learned many different theories and ways of teaching,

I am very patient and humble young lady. No child is the same as another, so therefore; they are unique in their very own way. I believe that every child can succeed, but they just need to be instructed in the right direction. I can provide that direction because I will be their compass to the world of understanding, knowledge, and discovery. Learning should be fun and exciting, but not tedious and boring.My students will be outgoing and will be the future lawyers, doctors, firefighters, and the best teachers. I believe everyone has a gift from God. My gift is working with children, it brings joy and peace to my heart.I have a passion for working with children who really can not help themselves because they are either lost, not motivated, or scared.I just want to be an inspiration in their lives.
