As a current student studying special education and literacy instruction, I have had the opportunity to learn the newest and most recently researched "best practices" in teaching. I am currently certified in Special Education. My teaching experience has been significantly enhanced by my experience as a mother of a ten year old with special needs. I believe in creating a positive, professional atmosphere in a tutoring setting. I assess students based on specific needs expressed (by the student, parent, and/or teachers) and plan my instruction based on the data provided in assessment. I use researched methods in my instruction with a focus on direct instruction, modeling, guided practice, and continuous informal assessment. I have high expectations for my students as I believe that my job is to facilitate learning to each student's potential. I have worked with students of all

I have been teaching since 2005. My career began in Las Vegas, Nevada teaching 7th grade U.S. History at Sedway Middle School followed by Hyde Park Middle School (2005-2010). I have 2+ years teaching 11th grade AP and Honors U.S. History at Southwest Career and Technical Academy (2010-2012). My experience also includes teaching various social studies classes online at Beacon Academy of Nevada (2008-2011). I am currently teaching 9-12 Social Studies at Capital High School in West Columbus (2013). My teaching style is best described as Project based and differential instructions. I do not believe that students learn the same ways and need different teaching strategies to learn. In my class you can see multiple products of learning based on this approach to teaching. My style carries over into the private tutoring I provide.

I will tailor my teaching style to fit your needs. First, I will need to know what you are studying as well as your goals. Then we will work together to discover what methods will work the best for you to learn. From there, I will work on methods to use during our time together to help you learn. Given the diverse topics I can tutor in, it is difficult to say what my precise methods would be. I will work to give you the tools to study on your own. I am a recent graduate from Miami University. I have a degree in Adolescent/Young Adult Social Studies Education and my teaching certification is currently pending. I have over 60 credit hours completed towards a degree in music. My focus as a music student was voice, but I also spent a lot of time studying African American music. Prior to college, I spent 7 years as a percussionist.

I try to take a hands-on approach to teaching when possible. I find it helpful to use varied and often unusual objects and materials when teaching a lesson; it tends to make the material more memorable. However I am not above using the standard pencil/paper/textbook approach when needed. I consider myself to be a "beginner" teacher as I have recently graduated college and received my license. I have spent roughly 500 hours in the field as a result of college course requirements, and I have successfully completed a 12 week internship (student teaching) experience. I have had the opportunity to work in many different subject areas and classroom settings with students of various backgrounds, ages, and learning styles.

I taught in the inner city of Pittsburgh as reading tutor. In Columbus I taught music, reading, special education, and all other subjects from Preschool through high school. I tutored Whitehall high school students in their homes. I enjoyed teaching almost every day in different school districts for years. I have a masters degree in school counseling which has enabled me to understand the needs of most students. My goal is to help each child learn as much as possible but at the same time enjoy learning. Children need lots of love and attention. I rely on God's wisdom and strength every day because each day is a new experience or a new situation. I use games to help students learn. I pray for my students that God will help them enjoy learning.

During my undergraduate studies at OSU I was trained by Americorps to tutor elementary students in reading and math. I worked for two years in the Columbus Public School System helping students that were behind their grade level in those subject areas. In my current high school position I teach a Career Based Intervention class and I assist students with their English, Science, Math and History lessons. Over the course of pursing my own education, bachelors and masters, I have acquired skills in grammer and punctuation due to the accuracy that was required for my journalism assignments and research papers. I love working with children of all ages and I believe that all children should have an equitable education. Because of the skills and abilities I possess in reading I have been able to help my own child achieve beyond her grade level and she is currently in the gifted program for rea

My M.Ed. focus is on Integrated Arts. I use this whenever possible. Currently teaching Special Education, I find it gives me many ways to reach individuals where they are at that moment. I feel that every child can learn. I taught K-12(part-time) as a teacher in the Columbus City Schools. Currently I am a Special Education Educational Assistant at Duxberry Park Arts Impact Elementary School. During my service in the Navy I taught EMT, CPR, and various other courses over a 23 year period. I love to teach.

I believe in encouraging students' ideas and helping them take control of the learning process. Many students are intimidated by unfamiliar material, and need affirmation and guidance in order to succeed. I am a patient and considerate person and I have the interpersonal skills needed to establish a trust relationship with students. Despite my easy going nature, I am rigorous and hold students to high yet attainable standards. I was a tutor during both my graduate and undergraduate schooling. During my undergraduate tutoring experience I worked with students on various types of writing assignments including science reports, doctoral papers, and research papers. I also have some experience tutoring ESL and have worked with young children as well as high school and college students. I have a BA in both English and German, and can tutor in both areas, but I excel in writing, research,

I love teaching children of all ages. I have adopted a can-do, win-win, positive approach to education and teaching. Together with your child, we will explore different types of learning styles until we discover the one that best suits their needs. My goal is to make sure your child succeeds. I believe that all children can meet their potential if they are given the right educational, learning environment. I have recently retired after 35 years as an educator. I have earned the degrees of BS in Business, MBA, and Ed.D. I have taught high school business, math, and accounting. I have also taught college at night as an adjunct in economics, accounting, math, and management. Through all of these years, I have adopted a can-do, win-win, positive approach.

I have a wide variety of experiences in and out of the classroom with all different types of learners in all different age groups. I have taught preschool, middle school, high school, and adult education classes. In addition, many of my tutor students have been in elementary school. I work best with struggling students, and they have told me and shown me that I effectively helped them. I have tutored students in math, science, social studies, and English. I am certified to teach Biology, general science classes, English, and journalism. Reading and writing have always been my strengths throughout my own studies and jobs, but Biology fascinates me. I am a teacher of individuals. I believe that people are so different from each other that each student really needs an individualized approach. While this is more challenging in a classroom, it lends itself well to tutoring. I read people
