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.

I have worked both as a substitute teacher and as a certified teacher for around 15 years. I have taught a variety of different courses. I was certified to teach all sciences grades 7-12. However my certification has expired. I have taught both in the private and public sectors of education. I graduated a member of Kappa Delta Pi, as an international honor society. I graduated with a 3.9 G.P.A. I have also worked as a tutor many times within my career. I also worked with troubled teens as a therapeutic foster parent. I have taught all sciences, math, English, literature, reading, history, geography, geology, and religion.
I believe that a teacher should be willing to do whatever is necessary for the student to understand the concept(s) being discussed. Students all learn different things in different ways. I have taught a wide range of students both in ages and in ethic backgroun ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am young, enthusiastic, understanding, and patient. I am passionate about teaching, and it is my foremost goal to direct students toward academic success. I think of teaching as a fine art, founded upon a set of testable objectives. Each and every student is capable of learning, but no one specific formula can guarantee that learning will actually occur. Instead, the process by which it is accomplished is unique to the individual student; personal learning style must be critically evaluated in the development of any effective tutoring plan. A dynamic relationship should also exist between teacher and student, since ideas must be exchanged, discussed, understood, remembered, and applied.
I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Sciences, with honors, and am currently working toward the completion of a Ph.D. in Basic Medical Sciences. My scientific training supports ... read more

As an educator for seven years, I have worked in several different environments and have worn several different hats. I have a BA in English with a concentration in Mass Communications, an MA in Secondary Education with a concentration in Language Arts, and an MA in Educational Leadership and Administration.

I have worked diligently with my students writing essays and papers and I provide quality feedback to help them perfect their writing and composition skills.

More About This Tutor...

I am enthustiatic, committed, and responsible. I have worked with several students with learning disablities including ADD/ADHD and Autism. Additionally, I have spent time tutoring children whose first language was not English (Russian and Spanish, speaking some English). Though ideally every student would make A's, I feel the most important part of any academic process is making sure the child understands the subject for more than just a test. Every child can learn with the right attenion and patience.
As a student at the University of South Alabama, I was privledged to be able to take part in many group studies and activities including The Communication Student Association, Chi Omega, Baptist Campus Ministries, and SouthPaws. As a graduate with degrees in English and Communications, I am fully qualified to help students with grammer, composition, creative and technical writing, a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I attended Cardiff University where I majored in English studies and Linguistics and have been teaching courses in linguistics, language development and grammar at the college level for 15 years. I currently teach in a speech pathology department and am familiar with communication disorders that lead to literacy and learning problems. I have published widely. I have also mentored and tutored students who are having problems with their writing and literacy skills. I have become interested in tutoring and preparing both high school students, adults returning to education and younger children to gain better skills in English and literacy. I am looking for summer teaching and part-time tutoring during regular semesters.
The key to good teaching is adaptability. First and foremost I believe that every individual can learn but we all have different learning styles. Some individuals may ... read more
