I have always known I wanted to be a teacher. I fulfilled my dream by getting my Bachelors of Science degree in Elementary Education. Before graduating college I took and passed my Professional Teacher Certification and Elementary Education Certification 1-6. While teaching at the Elementary level, I started tutoring prior students. This is when I realized my love of teaching Math. I then got my certification to teach Mathematics 5th – 9th grade. I have had many trainings throughout the years to help better serve my students.During the last eight years I have tutored Elementary, Middle, and High School students in Math. I love teaching! I am so glad that I get to do what I love. While teaching, I have found a real love of tutoring. I feel it is a better way to meet the needs of my students. I believe many students learn at different rates and some students just need more time. Tutoring a

I have been working with children for 15 years through various organizations and activities. I have been a fulltime teacher for 2 years and currently teach Kindergarten. I enjoy helping children reach their full potential and seeing their excitement when they master a challenging topic. I like to show students hands-on methods of solving problems. I believe this helps to make the information concrete and not easily forgotten. I feel each child learns differently and if one method does not succeed there is always another to try until we reach one that works for that child. I have also witnessed the effects of positive praise and reinforcement to help children build confidence in themselves.

I have a laid back, yet no nonsense style of teaching that I believe works with most students. I am a friendly and supportive figure, but there is no doubt that I am the one in charge in the classroom or in a tutoring situation. I like for students to learn to think inside, outside, above, and beyond the box when they are trying to learn a subject. No one way is 100% correct, and if a child cannot learn one way, then there is always another way to process the information. Not all children will love to learn, but I do try to show them that they can respect the process, and use it to their advantage. I have a degree in Middle School Education that allows me to teach Language Arts and Social Studies, and have a Master's degree in English which allows me to teach at the high school and community college level. I have taught middle school in the public and private arena ( I wrote the curricul

To finance my education I have worked at a recreation center, supervising and mentoring children for 5 years. This enabled me to work with a variety of children and their personalities. I have earned a Bachelor degree in Business Administration with a major in International Business and a minor in Economics. Through writing several essays, research reports and preparing presentations which included critical thinking and problem solving, I've gained knowledge in math and writing skills. Along the way, I helped my colleagues by tutoring them in areas of difficulty. The summer after I graduated I also tutored students in economics. Additionally, over the past 5 years I have helped children with their homework ages 5-12. I am a firm believer in teaching through organization. I've realized that with any age I tutor, organization is a key skill to managing and focusing on areas of difficulty.
