Passionate Elementary Education Tutor

I love teaching and I love to see the spark in a child's eye when they finally understand a subject they have struggled with! I am a certified special education instructional support aide for an elementary school in northwest Fort Worth. During the school year, I work in Resource and Content Mastery with special education students that are in general education classes but need additional instruction in Reading, Math, and Language Arts. I also provide additional assistance through Content Mastery to students in Science and Social Studies. I am currently pursuing a second Master's degree in Education with a specialization in Special Education as well as pursuing teacher certification through Texas Teachers. Although I work with all levels of students, my specialty is working with children with Autism and behavior issues.

Common Sense Teacher using Real World Strategies

I feel that a child needs to feel comfortable to learn. I will create a connection with your child to make him feel very comfortable and secure to increase interaction and confidence, which will lead to success. I also feel it is important to make learning relevant to my students by using real life examples. Children want to know why they need to learn certain things and I will show them how their knowledge is essential to being successful in life.
I have 12 years of teaching experience in grades 2-5. This is my first year out of the classroom, therefore I am very knowledgeable about the changing and increased expectations that your child is facing. Each of us are blessed with a special talent and mine is teaching. I am very passionate about education and have been very successful teaching children the skills and strategies necessary to succeed in all of their core subjects.

Experienced teacher ready to help you learn to love learning

I believe in working collaboratively with each other. Basing lessons on things that you love will will help you see the real life connections and importance of education. If we don't get it one way we will approach it another. Never giving up is my teaching style. If the first way we go about a learning objective doesn't work it will be my job to find a new way to teach it.
I have been teaching for 5 years. I have experience in 2nd through 4th grade. I am open to tutoring everywhere from kinder to 5th. I love math and reading. I've taught in all types of areas from Wichita Falls to Irving, and currently I'm teaching in Decatur. I will work hard to approach learning in new ways instead of the traditional learning classroom.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is best described as eclectic. While I am organized and focused, I vary my instructional methods to incorporate diverse activities and materials to engage and interest students. By understanding human behavior and acknowledging the many different learning styles of students, I easily establish and maintain an excellent rapport with students and parents alike. As a result, there is a strong level of trust that develops which also allows me to provide direction in working towards realizing shared goals and objectives. When faced with challenges, I succeed in utilizing a variety of strategies to motivate and encourage positive interactions.
Over the past 20+ years, I have worked with students from Pre-K through the college level. The commonality that I have found is that reading is the one thing that students need to be able to do and do well in order to be succe ... read more
