A Little Bit About Me...

I basically teach according to what the students like or is familiar with (art, sport, etc.) and I utilize what they're good at with the subject matter. For instance, if a student is into baseball, I teach math using scoring method, countries where players are from for social studies, speed of running, throwing, etc. for teaching science, and so on. With the younger students, I oberve them during choice time or free play and document what areas they are attracted to the most, how they interact with each other and their conversations. I use the data to help me develop and strenghten the abilities they exhibit.

My comments on tutoring Sign Language : Certified educational sign language interpreter.

I am in my second year as a certified/licensed sign language interpreter. I currently interperet at West Aurora High school. I also interpret at many local churchs including weekly Mass or services, religious education or children's church. I interpret for local park districts in the area from theater arts to sport activities.
Sign langugage is a visual language and can be taught in various formats. My goal is to match whichever learning style is best to accomodate the specific student.

Sign Language is one of my top subjects! Certification in American Sign Language and Deaf Studies

I was previously a dance instructor, and understand the basic principles of advancing within a certain skill. I have the patience and determination to yield results from a young educator. I currently hold a Bachelor's of Arts degree in Speech and Language Pathology. Through my undergraduate degree at the University of Iowa, I have learned about many speech disorders and the processes and basic understandings of changing behavior. Within speech and hearing I found a passion for American Sign Language. I became certified in American Sign Language and Deaf Studies at the university of Iowa and would like to pursue a career involving Sign Language.

I believe a great teacher needs to have proper skills and talents for teaching. I learned a lot while growing up from a great teacher; my mother. My mother was a teacher for thirty years teaching elementary grades. I learned a great teacher needs to be respectful, patient and to be able to illustrate the lesson in an easy, simple way. I try to provide simple analogies for each concept. This enables the student to grasp the concept easier and faster. In addition I help my students to learn better by asking few questions about the concept. This will help them to truly understand the lesson by using their analytical thinking.
I have been fascinated with tutoring for the past three years ago. I began tutoring one of the professors at the University of IL at Chicago in a foreign language. Since then, I have been tutoring various age groups from eight years old to fifty four years old. I ... read more

Since graduating from Northern Illinois University, I have had several experiences teaching children at the elementary and middle school age. I was a nanny for a family of three for a year right after graduating. It was a wonderful experience and gave me the opportunity to create my own lessons and activities for the children. The following year I was a substitute teacher in Wisconsin for various grade levels and loved each experience. I am looking forward to beginning to substitute teach again this December in the DeKalb area.
I have wanted to be a teacher all my life. I love working with children and teaching. I believe that children are the future and should be given the opportunity to do well and succeed in school. I like to do my best to teach students how to do something and then let them discover and practice how to do it for themselves on their own. I feel that prov ... read more

I'm always interested in education and continue to learn materials that I've already studied and furthermore, gain more knowledge through teaching others or their inputs. People have told me that they are amazed and admired my strength and determination to study medicine as I am hearing impaired. I can speak fluently and work with people despite having an hearing impairment. I hope to be a role model to other students and especially deaf and hearing imapaired individuals. Work hard and you can achieve your dreams.
I have come a long way with achieving bachlors in biology and basic medical science. And hopefully on my way to achieving my biggest dream.

More About This Tutor...

I am a patient and positive teacher and implement multiple learning strategies to help each student best engage with the material based on his or her strengths. I enjoy working with learners of all ages and strive to make lessons meaningful and engaging to the individual.
During the last eight years I have honed my teaching skills in a number of roles: tutoring math and language arts with America Reads, teaching English to elementary aged second language learners in France, working with learning disabled high schoolers as an English and U.S. government teacher, and training corporate clients in the use of software applications. In addition to these diverse experiences, my academic background in languages and business allows me to move confidently between subjects including Spanish, French, economics, math, English and the ACT & SAT exams.
