As a journalist who routinely faces deadlines that loom only five minutes away, I have never had the luxury of casually running a spell-check or referencing a dictionary. Internalizing the correct spelling of countless words serves as an indispensable skill in my profession. And for what it's worth, I know the tricks needed to assume spelling mastery, which I suppose accounts for my having advanced to regional spelling-bee competition as a youth. I advocate a "hands-on" approach that affords students an opportunity to feel as if they are teaching themselves and I am there only to facilitate the process. I am foremost a writer whose 38-year, award-winning career is rooted in journalism. However, I also have an extensive teaching background. I have taught writing labs at St. Thomas University – Miami, Florida (1987-88), Mississippi State University (1988-89) and Texas A&M University (1989-

I use a critical pedagogical perspective in teaching English to students where students have active participation in their own learning. I believe that minds of students are not considered as where information are deposited and they are actively involved in their own learning. To me education is not a preparation for life, education is life itself, as John Dewey stated. The supplementary material I use are selected based on the student's needs, interests, and background. My teaching sessions are lively, interesting, and inspiring where students feel safe and confident. I have a Bachelor degree in Psychology that helps me build a good relationship with my students. I truly believe that when one likes his/her teacher, he/she will automatically like the subject matter! i I have more than 15 years of experience in teaching English to students with different backgrounds.

I believe in adapting my teaching style based on individual learning styles. I use a multi-sensory approach along with positive reinforcement. Each child I work with is unique and in order to be successful it is imperative to build a rapport with the child and the family. I have taught in both the public and private school sectors. I have been teaching Special Education since 1999. I owned a learning center for children on the Autism spectrum as well as own my own tutoring business~Special Effects Tutoring. I provide tutoring, advocacy, and professional development in the Collin County area of Texas.

1993 B.S. Texas Womans University Elementary Education 2008 M.A. University of Phoenix Curriculum and Instruction 1994 Teaching Certificate State of Texas (Lifetime) I have been teaching for the last 19 years. I have taught everything from 1st to 8th grade. My favorite subject to teach is Math. My students (85%-90%) would usually always perform end of the year State Test and on any test that showed grade equivalency they usually performed one to two years ahead of their grade. My teaching style has always been about quality. I know that whatever I teach today, will last forever with my students. So if I don't teach, they wouldn't learn anything and I never wanted anyone to ever say "She didn't teach us anything while we were in her class." I also know that I have a job to come to every day and so do the students. I want to want to come to work and I want my students to want

My teaching style is one that always tries to relate to the child and to have fun. Does the child enjoy video games, dinosaurs, soccer, dance, or a particular cartoon character? When I discover what it is the child enjoys, I bring that element into the subject we are learning about. If the child likes soccer and struggles in reading, I research about famous soccer players and find books on them. Perhaps, at the end of a teaching session, we go outside and kick the soccer ball for 5 minutes as a source of inspiration to get work completed. Bringing in other ways of learning through play and games is also something I enjoy. Playing simple math games or reading games is a easy way to teach a child, without them realizing they are learning. • Taught students in classroom in second grade public school for nine years by planning, implementing and carrying out lesson plans in reading, wri
