Special Education is one of my top subjects! I have worked with special needs children and adults for 26 years in all different settings, including work I did for the Department of Children and Families.

I am a sensitive, creative, and patient teacher with a bachelor’s degree in Exceptional Student Education and an Associates in Fine Arts, with more than 26 years of experience in championing educational and developmental student needs.

Improving Student Achievement

I believe that all children have the ability to learn. They each learn in a different way and at different rates but they all are able to learn. I promote a variety of teaching styles. Differentiated instruction is vital for student success. I believe in exposing students to different types of learning. Furthermore, I feel that students should be a part of their own learning process. I believe in working closely with the students and allowing to have their input on what way they believe is the best learning style for them. I believe that it makes them more excited about learning and they grasp the material being taught quicker. My goal in tutoring children is to promote positive and fun learning to help students succeed.

I believe that all students can learn. It's just a matter of finding the instructional style that matches their learning style. I am a firm believer in the theory of multiple intelligences, developed by Dr. Howard Gardner and adapted to the education field by Thomas Armstrong. It's not how smart you are, but how are you smart! To me there is nothing better than seeing the lightbulb go on in students' eyes when they "get it." My job as a teacher is to figure out how to bring each individual student to that point and guide all of them to reach their fullest potential.
I have 19 years experience as a high school teacher. In that time, I have taught several different English classes and reading. I have been a department chairperson, a reading coach, and have taught a variety of graduate level education courses to teachers as well. I was honored as Wentzville High School teacher ... read more

I follow Gardner's Theory of Learning Styles, students do not learn in the same way, as a tutor you must look for the approach that is right for the student. Also, working with at risk students, who have experienced failure in traditonal school settings, an educator must work on the negative beliefs of the student, including that the student sees themselves as "dumb" and " not able to learn." One or 2 point increase on a TABE test, needs to be recognized. I enjoy working with students to asist them in discovering the joy of learning, the feeling of succes when they achieve a goal of passing a test or completing an assignment.
I have professional experience as a Career Development Counselor working with at risk youth, assisting the students develop their education and career goals. I have taught classes part time at a post secondary private school for 2 years. Also, I have tuto ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a tutor I provided academic assistance to assigned tutees, either in a group or individually. Establish a working rapport with the teacher and/or work under the teacher's direction, if necessary to assist the student. I was responsible for maintaining records on each student who is being tutored, including follow-up and periodic assessment. Evaluations and other reports as requested by the program director helped students develop positive attitudes toward learning and studying. Students in turn developed self-confidence, raise self-concept, and reduce anxiety or fear of failure in their academic work.
In addition to my bachelors of science degree in biology, I recently earned a master's degree in business administration in 2009. I have 3 years of teaching experience in the classroom and over 2 years of experience substitute teaching and providing in home tutoring. I am passionat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a patient teacher and take pride in taking the time to get to know what "works" for each individual student. I enjoy working with students in a one-on-one setting and in a classroom environment. I like asking questions of my students first to see where they are on the lesson and then after the lesson to check for understanding.
I worked at a residential summer camp for five years. I ran an after-school program (including tutoring) for three years. I tutored a native Vietnamese elementary student in all subjects for three years. I taught at a therapeutic boarding school for 15 months, teaching English and Social Studies.

A Little Bit About Me...

Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited.
I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.
