Passionate about learning.

I realize that everyone learns differently, and I believe in flexibility. I also believe in encouraging success and consistency.
I have experience as a peer tutor. Since I am an avid reader, I love all things related to books, vocabulary, literature and English. I have young children that I help daily with homework assignments. I have also worked many years as a trainer in genetics. I am also a DI(directed instruction) volunteer for elementary school. I enjoy opportunities to share my knowledge with others and learn as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been working with students of varying socioeconomic backgrounds as a teacher. I have not only earned my Bachelor's Degree in English, I also have a Master's in Education. I love helping students succeed! I have taught students in all elementary subjects.
I am a calm teacher who believes all students can become successful if given the individual time and attention that is needed. My goal is to help the student by modeling and then using encouragement and self-esteem building so that the student will become more confident. All children can learn and be successful when given instructional guidance that is geared toward the individual and encouragement to try their best. I strive to reach each and every child to help them be successful and achieve their potential.

Although new to tutoring, I have worked with children extensively and participated in peer tutoring throughout middle school and high school. I have an excellent rapport with children and young adults and my knowledge is not limited to the area of foods and nutrition. I have excellent creative writing skills as well as a very strong knowledge of language, arts and sociology.

Each child is different and I believe you must first build trust with the student and establish a relationship while studying their working habits an ... read more

In my 2nd year of teaching, I have enjoyed the experiences that have came my way due to my students. I enjoy going to work daily and leave almost everyday with a sense of gratification because of the accomplishments I help my students achieve. I currently teach 4th grade and feel this grade level has helped me fine tune my writing skills due to the demanding pressure placed on my students to pass the 4th grade writing test. I feel that I am already a good teacher, but know I can be better. Therefore, I will be starting my master’s degree in the summer of 2006 in hopes to become a more effective teacher.
Teaching is an art that needs to be perfected based on each individual child’s needs. I am a very demanding teacher, but at the same time always fair and give positive reinforcement while the student is learning and of course, when they have obtained their goals. I teach using a va ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach, period. I believe that as a humanistic educator, all children can learn if given the right attention and the right motivation to succeed. In the past, I have worked with students from all backgrounds and economic strata-AG students, "At-risk" students, and they taught me to be deligent but not gullible, firm but not overbearing, and to always give a calm and penetrating judgement in times of crisis. In the interim, I am pleased to say that I have taught over five thousand students in the state of North Carolina that are presently giving their major contributions to the building of the state and country. I am very proud of that. I am a firm believer in teaching through experimentation, discovery and in providing challenging opportunities for students to grow. My goal is to proide the best education money can buy. I believe children learn by doing, and not by spo ... read more

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.

For example, I like to make sure that my student has an opportunity to learn a lesson not only hands-on but also visually. I am a strong believer in the saying that, “Practice Makes Perfect.”
