I specialize in motivating the unmotivated!

I make learning relavant to each specific student by getting to know their interests. I also teach using many different modalities as everyone learns differently.
I started out my teaching career as a reading specialist for struggling readers in grades 1 through 6. I am trained in a program called Next Steps, which was designed by educators at the University of Utah, for readers below grade level. All of the students that I tutored saw significant improvements in reading and writing by the end of the school year. I then moved on to become a regular first grade teacher for two years. During this time, I was able to further hone my skills in making learning fun and engaging. I believe this is the key to helping students do well in school. While I taught full time I had a part time job as a martial arts instructor for children aged 3 to 17, which eventually became my full-time ... read more

I use the Orton- Gilingham multi sensory approach.

ORTON-Gilingham multi sensory approach. Math without words until the concept is mastered. Using lots of manipulatives including video games, that teach concepts.
I Have worked for the Davis County School district for 12 years. The last few years I have been working intervention for students who are not performing at grade level. I have learned that not all kids can learn the way they are taught in school. My 8 year old is dyslexic. I Have studied the Orton-Gilingham multisensory approach to reading and spelling. I have also learned to engage children in activities that are fun and creative. I will not be doing the same teaching style as there school.

I will help with Musical Studies, Graphic Design, and Art.

Throughout high school, I had trouble trying to figure out what I wanted to do when I graduated. I took many classes that ranged from Weight Training to Biology. I took many Art classes in which I excelled at. I then took some Computer Technology classes and I loved it. So I figured I would put the two together and took Graphic Design classes. I loved it. I am very competent in using all sorts of Graphic Design programs. I got my first guitar around 8 years ago and just picked it up and learned it. I have been learning ever since. I personally, have taught many people the basics of guitar and gave them the tools to excel in music.

I would prefer the library, just because it is big and open. The library in Tooele is a great example. It has rooms that can be used. I would prefer tutoring no more than 10 students at a time. If I can get a copy of the lesson before hand, I can be prepared.
Most of the subjects I have selected I passed with an 85% or better. I also did some tutoring in high school for other students. If I didn't learn it, I am most likely to figure out what is going on. It helps to know before hand what the lesson and subject is, just so I can remember what it is and to be more prepared.

As a dedicated educator with outstanding leadership skills and considerable experience in language instruction, elementary education, and secondary education, I am writing to offer your organization the expertise and insight acquired during the course of a career spanning two continents, multiple disciplines, and more than 24 years. My professional history has focused on language instruction, but breadth of experience—both professional and personal—sets me apart from my peers. My own transition to the United States informs my practice as an ESL teacher. My background as an ESL student gives me an awareness of English grammar and usage that is often second nature to the native speaker, and this awareness helps me to make linguistic concepts clear to students who have grown up speaking English. My unique background also informs my approach to elementary and secondary teaching in d ... read more

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : Learning skills are very important and I know some key steps to help improve these

I have helped in Elementary schools with the I can READ programs.I have taught ESL students in improving reading skills. In Literacy Centers in Utah. Reading is the base of everything that's why I know the signs of a struggling reader(I was a struggling reader). Though I do not have a "paper" that says I am a teacher. I do have some skills that a teacher has or should have
I strive to make learning fun

My son & myself have Dyslexia & ADHD, plus, my son has a few other learning disability's, so the experts say. We have learned together how to make all of this work for us. I researched a lot & learned how to teach him how to make it all this work for him. He was on low dose med's for 6 months, I took him off because he learned the difference in 7th grade. No reason for any more med's. I do not think kids should be labeled as "disabled" because others think different then they do! My son thinks way different then my daughter but that doesn't mean either one is wrong. My son is very successful at his job & he is now a boss & he loves his job. He is 31 years old and a great person, everyone like him.

I enjoy teaching children, working with them to find their talents, and strengths. All children have the ability to learn, each child learns differently so it is important to find out each child's learning style so that learning is made easier for them.

I believe that all children can be successful in their education, and I love being part of that success.
