More About This Tutor...

Because of my elementary background, it is safe to say I am a very patient person and I use that skill in my ability. I allow the children to create their own paths and when there are roadblocks we work together to find a solution. I am not in the habit of giving students the answers. I feel education is most effective when self discovery is involved and I want my students to feel that they are learning and achieving in every way possible. All students are capable of success; some just need more guidance than others.
My teaching experience has been primarily focused on elementary education, however I have tutored freshman in English and History. I have a degree in psychology from St. Ambrose in Davenport and finished my licensure at Ottawa University in Phoenix. I am certified to teach K-6 in Arizona and I have applied for Iowa certification.

A Little Bit About Me...

My personal pedagogic philosophy ranks above all else thoughtfulness, compassion, individual attention to each student, and a dynamic, interactive understanding of the process of learning. I treat my students with the utmost respect for their intelligence and independence of mind and spirit.
I attended Sarah Lawrence College, where I studied English and Spanish literature, Ancient Greek, history and philosophy. I graduated with an MFA in English from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop in May of 2008, and I am currently the Provost’s Post-Graduate Writing Fellow in fiction at the University of Iowa. I have three years of experience teaching college students in English and creative writing. I have also occasionally tutored students at the University of Iowa in Ancient Greek.

I cannot think of anything more rewarding than teaching and working with young people of all ages because of all that I can contribute to their lives. I strive to meet each student where they are, no matter what level, and yet meet the needs of the group as a whole. As I also believe that anyone can learn, my desire is to provide the best opportunities that I can so that they can realize their full potential and know that they are all important members of society who have something of their own to contribute and that I can learn from as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned both my Masters' and Bachelors' degrees with honors from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. During my academic I learned to excel in everything I do, which help me master the accounting knowledge I have today. While at SIUC, I was also involved in many student organizations such as Beta Alpha Psi, Accounting Society, and NABA. I was the tutoring chair for Beta Alpha Psi for two years and have acquired very good teaching skills. The Director of the School of Accountancy will be a good reference when you need one.
My teaching style is sample: Bringing the topic to the student understanding level and be positive about it. I believe that students need to put in a little more effort without which they cannot achieve their learning goals. I am for giving students simple examples related to real life and they can easily understand the concepts

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy working with all students. My past experiences of interacting with children has shown me all children have the ability to learn, but learn at different paces and in different ways. I believe in finding out what learning method works best for each individual student and build from there. I am patient, understanding, and have a strong willingness to help others. I believe effort goes a long way. As long as there is effort on behalf of the student, as well as from the tutor, success can be achieved. My goal is to make simple improvements in small steps to obtain that sense of accomplishment and confidence for the student. As a mentor I will provide encouragement and support to make a difference in each student's life.

It is both amazing and fulfilling for me to utilize my education and communication skills to assist both children and adults in learning to better understand their subjects in school. I realize that every individual is different and has their own conception of what style of learning works for him or her. I am a very patient, observant, and kind-hearted. It is very easy for me to communicate to people from all walks of life and I can easily identify what teaching strategies work and do not work for each individual. I believe that everyone deserves a fair chance at receiving a good education. To be able to help someone overcome their struggles in a particular subject or subjects is an amazing feeling for me. Making a positive impact in one's educational experience is truly fulfilling for me.
I have always had a strong appreciation for education and learning new things. My educational ... read more

I am highly experienced at developing IEPs for students. I have assisted many students to achieve grade level competency or beyond and advanced students desiring to improve English skills. I am skilled in both writing and reading instruction. Among my accolades in teaching are all students passing the 10th grade WASL first try, level 3s or above on AP tests and several of former students becoming published authors. I am also skilled in the area of basic math, and history.

In addition to tutoring children and helping those I babysat with homework, I also taught horseback riding lessons to young children for three years.
