Jazz Dancing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Mount Gilead, NC

With a BS in Physics and a Masters in Business I greatly enjoy the challenge of academics. I have been a classroom teacher for over 6 years and have tutored students from Pre-K through college age in areas of English and math. I enjoy seeing my students excel. I greatly enjoy teaching and developing children of all ages. As a teacher I am constantly challenged to understand each student’s individual needs and to present the material in a way that produces the most joy and therefore increases material retention. I have high expectations for all of my students and make sure they know I believe in them. Filled with confidence and introduced to the right learning experiences, all students have the ability to succeed.

I have learned many different theories and ways of teaching, most of which I incorporate in my style of teaching. The ones I really believe in and use most are using a hands on approach using the ideas of inquiry and real life experiences in order to make learning the most meaningful and interesting. All children are different therefore individualized programs are needed in order for the child to succeed. I also believe that children learn both socially and indiviually and that it is important for children to learn in many different ways. To see that I have made a difference in a childs life or to hear them talk about something they learned from me, is not only exciting but makes me want to make a difference in as many children's lives as I can. I have participated in two summer school programs (2nd and 4th grade) in NYC that helped prepare students to retake state tests in the areas of

I plan to implement creative and supportive instruction and mentoring for my students in which follows their needs. I find teaching a privilege in which students are able to feel confident that what I teach and recap is reliable and accurate.

I would love the opportunity to teach grade school children. It was during my formidable years that I can recall a young lady who impacted my education in a very significant way. Additionally, I also have very fond memories of several children who I mentored through tutoring. My innate enthusiastic nature has facilitated a strong desire with the children to participate in the learning process in many unique ways. I gain tremendous joy and satisfaction through observing this process. Earning a degree in Communications accelerated my skills in writing through Journalism, research papers and Rhetorical studies. Additionally, writing is something I enjoy and practice on a daily basis. It has been a number of years since I have tutored a child however, I would like to incorporate my vocational experience as well as my collegiate studies into my teaching practices.

As a cum laude graduate, I have always strived to achieve the high goals I set for myself. During my student teaching semester of college, I managed to obtain a 4.0 grade point average while I performed every teaching task that was set forth for me. Before graduation I was offered a full time position teaching third grade with Cumberland County schools. During my year as a third grade teacher I became well versed in differentiating my teaching style to meet every student's needs. My students consistently did well on both standardized and classroom tests. Their scores were consistently the second highest in the grade level. I was also kept abreast to the latest theories and studies throughout the year as I attended several staff development courses. Through teaching students with learning disabilities and tutoring a sister with Down’s Syndrome, I learned not only are no two children
