More About This Tutor...

I have taught both adults and youth. I was instrumental in assisting adults in obtaining their high school diploma and college degree. As a youth teacher, I was responsible for teaching students to read and as a result of their improving in this area; I was promoted to a teacher’s position. I have tutored students on an individual basis, and a result they were able to be promoted to the next grade.
My style of teaching is more of a participant style. I enjoy when students contribute to class discussions. It brings joy to my heart when a child finds a task complicated and eventually succeeds. Many of the children that I have taught often call me. It is my belief, that as an educator I must be creative and see each child as an individual and not as a group. As an educator, I am responsible for not only teaching students but for coaching, mentoring, tutoring and inspiring young mind ... read more

I love teaching and working with all students. My teaching style is based on the student's learning style and interests. I use visual, tactile and auditory instructional methods when presenting information and/or teaching skills and concepts. As we know students' learning differ in readiness for content, interests and how he/she learns,therefore it is my job to identify his/her needs. I believe all children are life long learners. I supply and deliver information in a manner in which the student comprehends and builds upon. I am a true believer in the following phrase "the more ways you teach, the more students you reach." I choose teaching as a life long career because this is how I can make a difference in children's lives.

Certified Special Education Teacher

I'm a certified special education teacher that has taught in MCPSS for over a year. I have worked with kids of all abilities and I would be thrilled to tutor your child and support them in the educational system. I have a library of resources to pull from while working with students. I truly understand about individualized tutoring services. When one technique is not working, then you search for another strategy. For kids with disabilities, you have to continually be thinking outside of the box.

A Little Bit About Me...

Curriculum tailored to the specific needs of the client, is successful if interaction is achieved through the use of a learners contract. Goal orientation, achievement and praise allows to student to push beyond the limitations that life circumstances afford. Active involvement in the development of lesson plans that interest the student has proven to be vital. Mainstream education sometimes misses this valuable link. Follow up, focus on the task at hand, and challenging to excel are necessary components of the style that I utilize.

I believe a child can learn any subject put before him/her. With the belief that a child can learn, it is my challenge to find out what style of learning best fits each child being tutored. When teaching I take the time to present materials one way, and if the student doesn't comprhend I will present it another way. My goal is to help each student meet his or her potential.
I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi in 2006 wiht a degree in Psychology. While attending USM I taught a combined class Of 3rd And 4th grades. for the past 16 years I have tutor Reading, Math, History, and basic science to children in my family and community. I also substitute teach for 3 school districts.

I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi where I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Deaf Education. I loved working with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, but it was extremely hard finding a job doing that in my area. Due to that fact, I started tutoring as many kids from the local schools as much as possible and I loved doing it. That also motivated me to work on adding endorsements to my teaching license so that I can teach regular education as well. I’ve added Special Education (k-12) and Social Studies (7-12) and I am working on adding English and Math as well. I am excited about given the opportunity to work in the school system.

I actually believe that having the ability to teach is a gift, and that Learning occurs from a variety of experiences and explorations. I generally use a teacher-centered approach to teaching; however, there are other times that I prefer to use a learner-centered approach as to meet the needs of my students and their learning styles. I often use a variety of teaching methods such as: group learning, peer review, role modeling, visual aids/hands-on, and mapping.

My lessons are student-centered and driven by mastering basic skills, in an effort to acquire the skills necessary to take on more challenging academic material. It is my belief that children are subject to many advantages in today's classroom with the integration of technology and interactive learning. However, with so many children spending excessive time watching TV, playing video games, etc., it is difficult for the classroom setting to compete. I believe that tutors can help bridge the gap in information that students may have had during the school year.

I believe all children have what it takes to learn and work to the best of their ability. As their teacher it's my job to make sure I bring the best out in them. I loved all students and they know how special they are to me. I have taught first and second grade for 5 years and am still in close contact with a number of my former students. If they've been in my classroom, they know Mrs. Raybon loves them and has made sure they learned as much as they could in the short time I had them.
