As a graduate from Briar Cliff College, I have always enjoyed learning and wanting to help others succeed. I have earned a BA degree in Elementary Education, in which I have taught in the classroom for 2 years, but have also taught at a learning center for a total of 5 years. While in college, I participated in the AmeriCorps tutoring program, in which I privately tutored a few students, along with students in a school setting during the day. Recently, I have been privately tutoring a high school student and a kindergartener mainly for math, reading, English, and writing.
I love teaching and working with young people of all ages and abilities. It is my belief that all students have the ability to learn, so they can succeed and gain the confidence in their abilities. In order to help children reach their highest potential, I believe that each one should be given personalized ... read more

As a graduate from UW- Madison in Elementary Education, I am passionate about teaching, learning, and the pursuit of excellence. I earned a 3.8 GPA from UW-Madison and gained great experience working with students of all ages and abilities. For example, I completed an internship at the Dane County Juvenile Detention Center where I provided tutoring and mentorship for a range of highly troubled students of various abilities, ages, ethnic backgrounds, languages, etc. I have spent the last academic year substitute teaching all ages and grade levels.
I am dedicated to providing a quality education for all of the students that I teach.

As a recent student, my online education used the most progressive and innovative resources available. The BS in Interdisciplinary Studies enabled me to become proficient in three, instead of one discipline. A focus in English-Professional Writing, Business and Psychology, provided advanced knowledge of many subjects, plus research, writing and communication skills, essential to online learning. I have skillfully produced thousands of academic papers, requiring extensive research, on a wide-range of study topics, making me aware of and responsive to students’ needs. Furthermore, as a Support Substitute for my local school district, I have worked with students of all ages, in a variety of ways, including one-on-one tutoring.
I have sons ages 17 and 20, and continually took an active role in fostering their education. From the time they first set foot in kindergarten, through high ... read more

I believe that learning can and should be fun so that students will want to continue learning throughout their life. It is fun to come up with innovative ways to help students remember and learn material. With patience and kindness, I strive to help them make the most of their abilities and talents. Seeing students achieve their goals brings me much joy and satisfaction.
I am a graduate of Brigham Young University with a BA in English. Psychology and child development were part of my curriculum. When our children were all in school, I started substitute teaching K-12. I especially enjoyed working with K-5. I have worked as a substitute, permanent substitute and teaching assistant for about 13 years in the Concord School District (NH) and the Provo School District (UT). Some assignments were a few months long while teachers were recovering from surgery or illness. I had the ... read more

I especially enjoy working one-on-one with students because I am able to concentrate on his/her weaknesses. I like to use manipulatives and concrete examples whenever possible. After introducing a concept I work out examples with the student, then have him/her work through several examples while I watch and, finally, have the student work independently on a set of problems. If there are still errors I try to approach the concept from a different perspective and then repeat the process.
I have taught mathematics in grades 3 through college. I especially enjoy working with high school students and college algebra and trigonometry students. Since my retirement from college teaching I have been tutoring at Sylvan Learning, teaching some grade school math, algebra, geometry and ACT prep.
