Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Oconto, NE

I love learning and consider myself a life-long student. I am a firm believer in getting a quality education. I believe life is the best teacher and to use all that is happening in a child’s life to help them learn and take from it something positive. I believe that a right attitude and a positive perspective goes a long way in being able to succeed in school and life. My strengths are in realizing that we all learn in varying ways and as a teacher it is my responsibility to look at my student as an individual and help them discover their unique learning styles and find the right motivation to guarantee their success. I started college with the intention of becoming an elementary school teacher. I completed all coursework at Chadron State College Chadron, NE with the exception of my professional semester.

I have worked for the past 14 years in the behavioral health care field. I have served as a mentor to a youth with behavioral/emotional issues. I hold a BA of Education with a minor in Elementary Education and a minor in Special Education. I also hold an MSEd in Education- Counseling. I hold a current Nebraska teaching certificate and have worked with youth of all ages. I enjoy teaching and helping youth learn. My philosophy is that all children can learn if provided the opportunity and resources that fit their learning style. I believe in positive reinforcement and praise. Children learn in many different ways, and it is an educators role to provide opportunities for children to learn through various methods. I am a positive and outgoing person and believe this is evident in my teaching and presentation style.

I love learning and teaching. I understand that all students learn differently, and I take that into account while helping each individual student,so that I am best able to help each student meet his/her potential. I know that each student can reach his/her goals if he/she is motivated and feels confident in his/her ability. I achieve this by helping to point out the student's strengths and encourage them in a positive environment. Student's with the right support can accomplish their learning goals.

Before that I taught writing courses to college students. I have lots of experien

I am a laid back person who is easy to talk to and love to break the complicated down into the easy to grasp. I am a firm believer that every teaching relationship is an opportunity for all involved to learn (and that includes the instructor!). My goal is to teach others how to become effective communicators not only in the realm of the classroom, but in everyday life as well. I enjoy helping my students learn skills that can be applied to every subject in school and in life. I tell all my students who don't feel they have the skills to be a writer that great writers are taught to write; they are not born that way. I know that with my skill, I can give students the chance to become great. As a graduate student, I understand how important the ability to communicate in both written and verbal contexts is and I also know how difficult the skill can be to utilize effectively. I have wo
