A Little Bit About Me...

I am a very caring teacher. I love to use humor and encouragement in the hopes that the students will feel inspired to continue and flourish in their writing, even after our time together is over. I believe in children and their ability to acheive anything, and try to relay that message to them in a fun and patient way. I love to see the spark ignite in the eyes of someone who has achieved something they didn't know they could.
Although I have worked mostly in Film and Television since graduating from University, I returned to the University of LaVerne in Athens, Greece in 2004 to tutor foreign students in essay writing and to help hem with their entrance exams. I worked there part-time (3 days a week) for 2 years. I continued tutoring 2 students privately for another year. In 2009 I tutored after-school English at DeAnza Middle School in Ventura for approximately 6 months.

My degrees are in elementary education and special education. I have worked as a self-contained special education teacher, a resource teacher, and as a music specialist. I am also a published author and could help an upper grade student to improve his or her writing and composition skills.
I enjoy motivating children--especially those who have been struggling to succeed. I like to discover a child's strengths and help him or her to use them to succeed. My goal is to make a child feel better about himself and experience success!

I enjoy working with older children especially those in high school. I strongly believe that all students can suceed in the classroom as long as they have a good understanding of the materials being taught. And I make it my mission to make sure my students gain this understanding and will use any measure or teaching tool to ensure this. I am extremely patient and understanding with students and my ultimate goal is to see them suceed.
As a recent college graduate, I have a dedicated work ethic and a high performance level in the classroom which will translate onto the students I work with. I have earned a Bachlor of Arts in Biology from the George Washington University and plan to attend The George Washington University School of Medicine in the future. I have taken many courses in the field of biological sciences, chemistry, and mathematics. My past experience has been in tutoring ... read more

My goal as a teacher is to ensure that my students hone in on their individual skills and talents. In doing this, I create an atmosphere that is most conducive to learning. This is done through proper assessment and by challenging students at different levels with supplemental assignments and texts. Likewise, I typically design my classroom so that anyone walking into my room would have an enjoyable learning experience simply by viewing the walls. Sometimes, I have been called unconventional, but I think that within a changing society, it is very important to be able to teach "outside the box."
As I graduated number seven in my class, I was always a go-getter and an overachiever, especially within my field of study. Over the past 15 years, I have managed to earn a BA in Speech, an MA in Communications and over 10 years collective teaching experience at the high school, undergradua ... read more
