I have been in educator for over 10 years. I started teaching because of my volunteer work at the Memphis Literacy Council. I love teaching because I believe that education is the key to our country's future in this global competitive marketplace. We must prepare our children for the challenges of tomorrow because we live in such a dynamic world. I believe that every child can learn regardless of his or her situation. When given enough time on task and effective, instruction all kids learn. This is what I do.

Today’s fast paced school curriculum overwhelms an alarming number of students, essentially hindering their progress as a whole by failing to make sure one concept is properly learned before the next is taught. But I make sure that they are comfortable with each and every problem before encouraging them to move on to the next. This way they retain essential information that will adequately prepare them for review and lessons to come. They will be grateful to see an improvement in their grades and you will be grateful to witness their positive outlook towards reading, mathematics, writing and study skills. I have helped a number of adults & children improve in math, reading, writing and study skills. Generally a client should meet for three hours a week for best results. Tutoring in most subject areas at all grade levels from elementary through college is available. I can work with t

My teaching style is a combination of visual, and kinesthetic. Most of the students I have worked with in the past who are learning disabled learn best by seeing and doing( hands-on ) It works best for these students if they are able to see the work being presented and then try it themselves. In reading, I tend to like to have the student read a small section of the paragraph and describe a few things that stuck out in their mind. ( Create a picture ) For younger students I may actually have them draw what they read. I have 30+ years of teaching experience. I have worked with a wide variety of students from elementary age to adult learners.
