In 2006, I began scoring constructed responses on the PRAXIS exam for one of the nation's leading test administrators. My specialization in scoring is for the special education test for the Education of Exceptional Students (Learning Disabilities). Having this experience in the essay components of the test (which accounts for 50% of the test score) gives me an insiders knowledge of what you can do to maximize the effectiveness of your responses. I have taught Special Education in the public school system for over 13 years. This exposure to the needs of students and the strategies that play such an important part in helping students succeed led me to eventually begin scoring PRAXIS tests. After 3 years of scoring, I was offered a position as a scoring facilitator who introduced constructed response questions, discussed rubric requirements, and monitored the scores given by groups of 10-14

I was challenged to actively provide a positive classroom climate, create an interesting curriculum, and keep the students engaged in learning. In my junior year at Temple University, a passion for, ‘Going Green’ created an opportunity for me to aid in the construction of Greenworks Preschool Academy. This position allowed me to design the curriculum, mission statement, and daily

Coming from a family of educators, I have always had a desire to teach and instruct. My areas of study and concentration have provided me with the skills that are characteristic of advanced readers and writers. My eleven years of teaching experience have kept me sharp and current with the newest best practices in the classroom. I have taken this and transferred it to the students that I tutor. Simply put, I firmly believe that all children can learn and achieve at a high level. Student achievement correlates directly with expectation. Unfortunately, for many students expectations are low. High expectations lead to high achievements. As a teacher, it is my job to find ways to motivate my students to learn. This can be accomplished in many different ways. Differentiated instruction is the first step; students learn in differently and at their own pace. I need to be aware of this.

My success lies in the ability to explain the same material in many different ways. There is no one way for all children to learn. I have a passion for teaching that is insatiable. Seeing my students become as excited about a concept as I am, is absolutely amazing. There is no better feeling then a struggling student finally grasping a concept. I live for that feeling not just in the classroom, but throughout all parts of my day. As a recent college graduate from Temple University, I learned the techniques and disciplines to excel in my education as well as developing the drive to instill this practice in others. I have earned a BA in Mathematics, with other substantial course work in Philosophy, Physics and Music, showing I am a well rounded individual who can adapt teaching methods to accommodate a struggling student. I have current work experience at Kumon Math and Reading Center, whe

It's important for every teacher to believe that every student has the capability to learn. Public education, as well as education in general requires teachers to be fair and enforce equality in the classroom. Education serves many purposes, but its most important function is to prepare students for life. Students must be able to use the knowledge they gain in schools to improve themselves and their future. Courses should teach students information that will directly benefit them. It's not just information that students learn in schools. They will look to their teachers as role models to show them the way. I graduated from West Chester University with two bachelor degrees, BS in Chemistry Education and BS in Chemistry. Over the last four years I have tutored students in General and Organic Chemistry, Calculus, and Physics. As part of my BS in Chemistry Education I completed a semester of

As a former business owner, part-time educator, and father of two, I can say with certainty that I have been constantly instructing or teaching in one form or another for the past 15 years. As my children and previous students will attest, I have a calm patience when it comes to educating, particularly I think because education and learning did not come easy to me as a young student. I was always a visual learner who needed examples and samples to help guide me and I have always tried to provide the same visual learning atmosphere whenever I have been an instructor. I always appreciated when a teacher or professor was accessible to answer my questions and have followed suit in my brief teaching career. I have both a BA and MA in English and have taught and tutored at a variety of levels including time spent at the Community College of Philadelphia. As a result of over eight years of e

I am a hard working creative person. Having taught in both the urban and surburban areas, I know that every student can learn when their individual needs are met. I love to see the "lightbulb" go off in my students' heads, especially when they didn't believe that they could do it. I never allow my students to use the word can't. I tell them they can, they might need assistance, but they can do it. No excuses! After graduating from Syracuse University with a BSW and a minor in Psychology. I was sent to Baltimore, MD through the Teach For America program. While teaching for 5 years in Baltimore, I went back to school and earned my Master of Arts in Teaching. I then moved back to New Jersey and have been teaching here for 2 years. For the past 6 of my 7 years of teaching, I have taught Language Arts to students in grades K-college level students.
