Presently, I enjoy being a substitute teacher in my local school district, Avon Lake City Schools and other districts near Avon Lake.

I have always been very dedicated to all my students and customize homework to strengthen their knowledge that creates a positive attitude for their involvement with learning. I have created tactile materials created specifically for students.
Students learn in a positive learning environment. Everyone is unique thus everyone has unique learning styles. I focus on the positives each student has achieved and then, together the student and I strengthen the areas that need improvements. For example, there has been a recent emphasis on time t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a variety of experience. Most of my tutoring experience is with older students, aged 15 or older. However, I feel that I could work with younger kids as well. I love learning, and I get excited when a student fully grasps the material. I try and reinforce a teachers method of teaching. However, if repetition is not the issue, than I try and explain topics in different ways with lots of examples.I believe a tutor can really be a great supplement to the classroom teacher.
I graduated from Hope College in three years with a BS in Biology, a BA in Chemistry, and a minor in Classical Studies. I tutored throughout high school and college. I have tutored Latin (both into and upper level courses), Math (high school), history (high school,) Mythology (college), Biology (both intro and upper level courses), and Chemistry (both intro and upper level courses). In college, I was also a T ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching experience started teaching in a pre-school with 4 year olds. I then taught 3rd grade for 1 year and kindergarten for 9 years. When I updated my certificate (just in the last year) I did some teaching in a mildly handicapped resource room.
I feel my style of teaching is one of being a facilitator. I choose to interact with the student by asking questions so enabling them to reach the answer through their own thinking processes. The excitement of seeing their confidence build as they realize they can figure out problems independently is the reward of being an educator. I believe my job is to guide and support the student.

My undergraduate years at Princeton University instilled in me a passion for learning and a personal commitment to academic excellence. Most of my adult work life has been focused on coaching individuals to overcome handicaps and maximize their potential as successful, competent learners. I have had 12 years teaching experience at the high school and college levels. This experience has included individual tutoring as well as classroom teaching. Through training experiences in School Psychology, I have had much experience in counseling and tutoring students who have learning disabilities. Currently, I teach at Cleveland State University in Psychology.
Learning is always easier when it is fun and interesting. In any given teaching situation I look for ways to add zest to learning. At the outset of tutoring I do an assessment of where students are currently achieving in a specific s ... read more

I have been a teacher in Cleveland for the past 18 years. I have taught children ages 5 to 12 with a wide variety of abilities, interests, and personalities. Working with these children, their parents, and therapists has given me a wealth of experience and ideas.
One of the best part of being a special education teacher is the flexiblity. With the child's parent, I can decide on the most pertinent goals that will lead this child to succeed in school and beyond. I am also able to teach in a manner that best suits each child, his interests, and abilities. I want students to share my philosophy that learning takes effort but it can be enjoyable with the right attitude.
