I believe the first step in academic success is building self esteem and confidence. Learning should be engaging and fun. My students come to enjoy learning and gaining confidence as they grow and become better readers. I have taught first through third grades for many years. Most of my experience is with elementary students. I now work with principals and teachers across the state to improve classroom instruction. I have also worked specifically with third graders to prepare them for the State Test. Each summer I am involved with the Read to Succeed camp where I work with students who have not passed the third grade end of the year test. The students retake the test after our camp and the vast majority pass and are promoted to the fourth grade. My schedule is very flexible.

Hello. I have been teaching for 23 years and tutoring in Spanish and other subjects for more than 10 years. I have worked both in private and public schools, and I am currently a public high school Spanish and ACT English and Reading teacher. Along with offering my in-school students extra help, I have tutored and taught private lessons to students ranging from Pre-K to adults. I am passionate about my content and eager to help students master their challenges in Spanish and other subjects. My teaching style is to be creative in ways to help students learn and retain concepts. In addition, I tend to be humorous from time-to-time.

While studying at MC, I took the opportunity to live and study abroad in Costa Rica, where I learned most of my conversational Spanish. After graduating from Mississippi College with a bachelor's in Spanish and a certificate in TESOL, I lived abroad in Peru working for an orphanage. Upon returning to the States, I worked as an ESL and Spanish teacher at both middle school and high school level. When teaching a language, I believe one should not only have the knowledge of the grammar and syntax, but the skills of communication. Thus, I implement a lot of conversational English and Spanish in my lessons within the classroom and tutoring. Depending on the age level, language acquisition techniques are changed to fit their interest level.

I have been an AP Literature and Composition teacher as well as Twelfth grade Language Arts instructor for over 16 years. I am acutely aware of the needs of students as it relates to mastering reading and writing skills. I have also taught an ACT Prep course for the past 5 years after extensive training at workshops and conferences. I know the importance of identifying weaknesses in reading, writing, and on standardized tests such as the ACT and directing my instruction to those weaknesses. I am especially skilled at targeting writing weaknesses as it relates to both rhetoric and mechanics as I am a practicing writer myself. Though reading ability is gained with much practice, there are practice methods to increase speed and cognition. I differentiate my instruction both in the classroom and individually to work at all writing and reading levels so that maximum benefit is achieved by the

I have taught a mixture of 9th, 10th, and 11th grade English over the past 4 years. Teaching is a second career for me and is something that I absolutely love! Being able to help children read, comprehend, and prepare their minds for the future is so rewarding. Much of my experience is in the state tested area of English, focusing heavily on grammar and reading comprehension. Reading is a huge past-time of mine and something that I heavily incorporate into my classroom.

I believe all students can learn. Every student has different learning styles and I believe if a teacher can make learning fun, students will remember what that teacher has tried to teach. I have been a Special Education teacher for 24 years. During that time, I was an Assistant Teacher, with several elementary schools in Mississippi. I was chosen as one of Mississippi's most outstanding teachers, in 1995. That same year, I was chosen, out of all teachers in the United States, to study at George Washington's home in Virginia.
