I have been a Special Education teacher for 24 years. During that time, I was an Assistant Teacher, with several elementary schools in Mississippi. I was chosen as one of Mississippi's most outstanding teachers, in 1995. That same year, I was chosen, out of all teachers in the United States, to study at George Washington's home in Virginia.
I believe all students can learn. Every student has different learning styles and I believe if a teacher can make learning fun, students will remember what that teacher has tried to teach.

I believe in getting a good education. I was in the Unites States Navy for 16 years. I joined the military right out of high school. I received my Certificate in Management, Associate of Arts degree, and Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Maryland College Park, Maryland while traveling and serving on active duty for my country. I have mentored and worked with many after school programs.
I am great at teaching youth and adults alike in getting the best education and setting goals. I am always excited about helping someone learn something new and training them different methods of learning and retaining the knowledge. I believe that success comes through education. I believe that education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the World.

I have been working with young children since 2005. I started as a pre-school teacher with ages 3-5. For the past five years I have worked as an elementary school Teacher's Assistant. It was there when I got the most of my experience in classroom management and actually how to teach all children with different learning styles. I worked with grades second, pre-K, fifth, and first. I just recently graduated from Jackson State Unversity and I am currently teaching for HCHRA-Project Head Start. My classroom consists of 3, 4, and 5 year olds. I love working with elementary level aged children because it allows me the chance to help perpare them for the cahllenges ahead.
It brings me great joy working with all types of children. Although all children are different, it does not limit each child from learning. I do believe that all children are capable of learning. As an educator ... read more

As we continue learning in the 21st century it is obvious how cutting edge technology, child’s learning style, and a child’s personality temperament all play a role in a child’s success in their success in life. Gaining or not developing these skills will ultimately influence their ability to graduate or not graduate from a good college and be a successful person in society. My job as your child's tutor is to be technology savvy, the ability to teach your child emotional intelligence through social modeling, identifying your child’s learning style and implement age and developmentally appropriate learning strategies that will help guide your child in their lifelong journey of learning.
As a graduate in Counselor Education from a Private Christian University it has been my observation that the ability to grasp new concepts, possess moral values, developing emotional intelligence, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a passion for and driven to put all the energy I have into children, no matter what their current learning style is. I do not accept, I can't, or It's too hard from any child, or children I am in the presence of. I truly am a firm believer that every child has the ability and is capable of excelling to the highest as long as they see there are educators who are interested in their learning and education. Because of my previous office skills and education, I have become even more patient, willing, and determined to make sure students get all the knowledge possible so they can be all they can. Wisdom is knowledge, knowledge is understanding, and students must have and be guided by educators in order to receive the best education.
As as 2010 graduate, I was determined to work for and earn my bachelor degree, not sure what area I wanted to study. I do not hold a degree in the ed ... read more

My motto is simple: In all of your getting, get an understanding. I truly belive that every child can learn. Even a child with a disadvantage still comes with an advantage because they are always getting some help. It also depends on the child also. We must both be focused on the task at hand and together we must tackle it until it is thoroughly understood.
For the last past six years I have enjoyed my students. They never cease to amaze me with all the many things that they can grasp when you try. I was an assistant in JPS. Tutoring was my job. I have also tutored other grades up to fifth. I really enjoy kids and I always wish the best for them. I have also had to be the actual teacher for the remainder of the school year and did grades and end of the school year things due to the teachers' emergency leave.

My capacity for learning and teaching is unlimited and extensive. I focus more on the students’ cognitive and social skills by making them more attentive and making sure they are able to comprehend the materials that is taught to them. My experience as a Case Counselor requires me to engage with the student who has special needs. I teach them how to interact with others. Next, as a Substitute teacher I am able to keep the children engaged in their work as their Permanent teacher is absent. Lastly, as a certified Biologist I will help them investigate the world associating biological and non biological entities surrounding them.
I received my BS degree in Biology in 2007 and I also minored in Chemistry at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. The education that was taught to me, I would like to use this very same tool that sharpened my mind to help the young minds of thos ... read more
