I worked at R&R Partners in Las Vegas (the company responsible for the "What happens here stays here" campaign) for 27 years. For the first 15 years I worked as a graphic artist, and the last 12 were spent as studio manager. I was responsible for training the art staff - which consisted of more than 35 artists, designers and art directors - in the Las Vegas office, and made occasional trips to the Salt Lake City and Phoenix offices to help the artists there. I am an expert in InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. I was responsible for converting the entire company from using Quark to InDesign without missing any art deadlines.

Teaching has always been a part of my life. My mother was constantly teaching me, along with my siblings and the twenty other children that ran in and out of our home. I believe strongly in a teaching method that provides encouragement and positivism; one that highlights the good before pointing out the mistakes. My goal is to listen to the child and hear what his or her needs are and where he or she is struggling, and then to actively tackle one issue at a time through creative and interactive activities, problem-solving, and constructive criticism. I believe in children, their innocence, their carefree energy and endless intelligent ideas and innovations. My ultimate goal in life is to make a difference, and children are a great place to start! Growing up my mother ran a tutoring program out of our home. This is where I initially learned the skills involved in tutoring. Ever since I wa

I have been a tutor throughout my undergraduate career. I have been employed by a tutoring service as well as independently. I have tutored all levels of high school Mathematics as well as most undergraduate level mathematics courses. I have 3 years experience in these various fields. My teaching style is unique. I make sure that students learn by doing, not by watching me do problems. As a student i always found that the most effective teachers used a style that allowed the student to do problems and ask questions. Today i put these practices to use in my tutoring. I believe that no child is a lost cause and that any child can learn given the right circumstances.

I have volunteered for a violence prevention program for one year and I taught children social skills and also have them complete a nine week course of homework assignments. I also was a big sister for a little girl and I not only spent many hours with her going to the park, arts and crafts, but I also helped tutor her with her homework. I really enjoy working with children, I feel they have so much potential if given the opportunity and some students just need that one on one help with a tutor or a teacher. I make sure that my instructions and how I am teaching is consistant with how well the child is able to grasp the concept or idea I am trying to teach. The whole purpose in teaching is to make sure the student understands and that is what I practice.

As the 7th Grade English and reading teacher at Robison Middle School, test scores on the state-mandated proficiency exam improved by 24%. After one year of service, I was asked to be the Chair of the Reading department. As the instructor for Read 180, I developed students' reading abilities who were far below school and district standards. Using a set curriculum based on computer, large group and small group discussion, I balanced classwork and themed topics to assist students in overcoming reading difficulties. I employ a number of different tactics while teaching. My main focus is using open-ended questions which help students understand not only what the correct answer is, but also why the answer is correct. I am focus-driven and work to set objectives. I will focus on an objective until it is understood completely. I have a strong ability to relate concepts into real-life situat

I believe in making teaching challenging and fun. Students need to be engaged in the day to day activities in order to learn. However, discipline is also essential. While I was a public relations professional, several people told me that I was a natural teacher. At a certain point in my career, I decided to give it a try and found out they were absolutely right! Although I did teach part time for several years during college and graduate school, this was the first time I made it my livelihood.

I earned a B.S. in Mathematics with an emphasis on logical thinking. The rigorous course work associated with an undergraduate degree in Mathematics has allowed me to navigate through life's decision-making tree with great accuracy. After completing 7 years in the financial services industry, I turned to continued learning in technology at different universities. During that period I had the opportunity to gain approximately 2 years experience as a substitute teacher and tutor. Recently, I have focused on helping and tutoring high school athletes who are showing promise in possibly going to college on scholarship. A student matriculating through the public education system has a much higher hurdle to cross than I did 20 years ago. The financial burden associated with gaining a higher education and the increased academic challenge can sometime require added time and attention. In tutoring

During my two years of graduate school in business journalism, I achieved high levels of education and field experiences. I had the opportunity to write and edit excellent newspaper articles and interview people from different cultural backgrounds on many subjects. I worked as an Associate Producer for CBS News, assisting several news producers and writers. After graduating, I wrote for a weekly newspaper that inspired and attracted the attention of people living in Queens, New York. I am able to speak and write Spanish fluently. I obtained a Certificate of Merit from the Clark County School District, Nevada, for completing their Alternate Route to Licensure training. I am confident that I can help all of my students find academic success. I am patient, easy going and considerate.

I have experience in the commercial field teaching adult computer applications. I also taught literacy to adults. I have found that drill is the best method to learn. After reading, writing, and arithmetic, I have added two more R's; review it and repeat it. I realize that this method needs to be individually applied according to the student's needs.

I am a writer. I am not published, but I have learned a lot in the English language. My experience working with mentally ill kids a hew years ago is a great help. I want to help young people with reading skills. I think that I can do it. I am going to live in Las Vegas, and am moving today. I need work. I feel that I am qualified. I am not an extraordinary... teacher. I need a more ordinary student. I feel that I can help anyone read well... Initially I will be living in The Valley Of Fire. A child must understand what he or she is reading. It is hard to do, especially with the books that are out there. I feel I can impart some knowledge to a student. I can make him or her feel comfortable reading.

My mother was a teacher for 33 years. Many summers she worked as a tutor and all through high-school and college I helped her. I graded student's papers, read with them, and helped with their homework. When I was in college, I tutored students in Spanish and English as a second language. My strongest subject is mathematics which is why I became an accountant. My grammatical skills are good due to writing reports when I worked as an auditor for the Gaming Control Board. I like my students and we seem to have a good connection. I will not preach. I was a public speaker for three years and know many techniques to communicate a message, without putting your audience to sleep. Practice makes excellence; therefore, repetition is a good learning technique. I believe every child has a capacity to excel, some may just need a little dedication. I have a good sense of humor and I incorporat
