I have earned two teaching credentials and have always been a high acheiver in life and in school. I have taught special education for over eight years and have served the toughest populations the education system has to offer. I analyze my clients needs and deliver effective approaches to solve their learning difficulties and reach them where they are at. My teaching style is dynamic and interactive. I ask lots of questions to help the learner realize that the answer and the abiltiy to achieve lies within them. I help learners reach that ability that has been covered up by negative teachers and people that have given up on them. All students can learn and achieve but not all teachers can teach. I can teach because I will never give up on a student and I will tap the hidden potential and help the student to believe in themselves.

The procedure I follow in tutoring is to first attack is to find out where any understanding difficulty lies. Then, I write the rules out. Next I work 2-3 problems applying the rules as we proceed step by step. Under my tutledge, I have the student work 2-3 problems on their own. When the student can, at least, master the basic problems, then we move on to the next area of difficulty. Every one can succeed at some level. My Ph.
