Over the past fifteen years, most of my teaching skills have been in non-traditional settings. Providing education for diverse age populations in the area of community programs taught me a multitude of instructional strategies. In 2001, the lead special education teacher at a high school asked me to offer assistance. I was able to observe different teaching styles in classroom settings and to provide individual instruction to students with varying learning styles. My most recent position at Total Education Solutions offered me the opportunity to be in a classroom setting. Although my placement was with one child, my presence and skills in teaching and behavior modification called me to work in small groups and with other individual students. I adapted therapies and curriculum in order to fit the needs of the children. Working in conjunction with the Los Angeles Unified School Dist

I am a very patient person and that is reflected in the way I teach. I love working with children and find it very rewarding. I believe that every child can learn, and I strive to help each child reach his/her potential. Education is so important. My goal is to help students believe they can achieve and give them the tools to do so. From a young age, I loved to read. I was fascinated by words and how the brain processes information. I earned a degree in Psychology and upon graduation took a position in a reading clinic. I was trained in the Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program, which remediates dyslexia. I worked one on one with students ages 4 to adult. I continued this work for ten years, during which time I also provided tutoring in writing and language arts. After this time, I was a stay at home mom, homeschooling my children. Most recently, as my children have entered public scho

I am a hands on teacher/tutor. I believe in active learning and student participation. I believe all children can learn, and that we all have different learning styles. I enjoy tapping into a specific child's learning style, and teaching him/her strategies to support that learning style. I am flexible and patient, and my years of experience give me the ability to understand each individual student's needs, and align my tutoring to accommodate those needs. I have been a teacher or tutor for over fifteen years. I have taught all grades, K - 12, as well as adults. The majority of my experience has been with students with disabilities, as well as students learning English as a Second Language. My work with adult and high school students has been primarily in English Language Arts, Reading and Writing strategies, and study skills. I have extensive training in teaching English using a

I am fortunate to have multiple intelligence. Since an early age, I have been motivated to increase my knowledge base and skill levels. My desires have motivated me to earn a double majored BS in agriculture, an applied science, and a MS in biology. I taught laboratory classes while I was a student. I began working as a tutor in 1999. This motivated me to become teacher trained. I am an AVID certified tutor. I have tutored middle school, high school, and college students in biology, chemistry, physics, environmental sciences, title-I math and language arts, prealgebra, HS algebra I & II, college algebra, pre-calculus. In my tutoring I work with study, organization, reading, and vocabulary development. I get a thrill from experiencing a student achieving the Ah-ha! moment of learning. I employ multiple modalities of teaching, since most students have multiple modalities of learning. My g

I enjoy working with children and have a great rapport with them. I start by identifying a student's strengths and weaknesses. I am able to successfully differentiate instruction and promote self esteem. I feel that all students deserve the opportunity to excel to their fullest potential. I have been employed as a Special Education for 7 years, working with students aged 2-18. I have taught in many settings including self contained, inclusive, homebound, one on one, and small group. I owned and operated a private school for 4 years and homeschooled 9th graders prior to my experience in public school.

I have been surrounded by children my entire life, and I am very confident in my abilities. In my opinion, the most important part of an effective teaching style is developing a connection with the child. When they look forward to seeing you and can tell that you are truly excited to be working with them, only then will you see their full effort being put forth. I make it a point to be outgoing, accessible, and most importantly, confident in their abilities. I believe in the principle of reinforcement through praise, and not only being a mentor/tutor, but also a friend. I am a firm believer in the importance of having children stick to schedules, and I incorporate this everyday into my work. During my five years of undergraduate work, I was very involved in the area of child education and care. I was a volunteer for Big Brothers/Big Sisters in Wisconsin, where I worked on elementary basi
