As a teacher there is nothing more rewarding than the look on a child's face when a skill is mastered or a mystery becomes an understood concept. This is what attracted me to the field of education and what has kept me here. I am also fully aware that each student does not reach this level of mastery by following the same path. I believe one of my greatest strengths as a teacher is to be able to change this path for each student. I am aware of the different ways children learn, and seek to incorporate examples of these learning styles into each lesson. I also know it is important to keep the learning at a level that ensures success to foster confidence while providing enough of a challenge to keep the student's interest. I have 14 years experience in elementary education, specifically teaching 2nd and 4th grades and kindergarten. I have 15 years experience in higher education administrat

Thirty-three years of teaching experience in not only the same school district, but the same school, has allowed me to finely hone my craft. My first 20 years were spent working with sixth-ninth graders in a middle school business classroom, enjoying the yearly curriculum changes in technology.

In addition, my role as Student Council advisor meshes my school/community leadership skills with those within the classroom walls. I always begin a class with in upbeat, fun atmosphere. I sometimes have powerful, familiar music playing when my students walk into the classroom. (Other students walking by in the hall frequently stop by to see what's going on!)

Passion, selflessness, and compassion are some reasons for wanting to be a teacher/tutor. I would want to know all that I possibly can learn about my students' life styles, behaviors, wants, and needs in order to help them achieve and learn as much as possible. I would encourage my students to let them tell me as much as they possibly can about their problems, wants, and needs. I, as a teacher, am a role model to be trusted, and I would like my students to put their faith in me as their leader, role model, and hero. I have demonstrated competence in successfully managing a profitable retail business. The necessary skills are invaluable. They can be used now in a classroom to help me become one of the best teachers/tutors in your school system.
