I have tutored individuals, small groups and also have taught colege classes in Study Skills. I tailor the study skills to fit the learning styles of my students. It is important to me that all children reach their best potential in whatever grade I am teaching. I have been in the teaching profession for 20 years and each day brings something different. Although, I came from a family of medical and science background, I have always wanted to teach and after 20 years, I am glad to say that I chose this profession. My goals are to meet each child at his/her learning level and provide the best education possible. I believe in varying my teaching style to suit each child thier cognitive abilities and grade level as it is my belief that all children can learn.

Teaching has been a passion of mine for some time. My general teaching philosophy and pedagogical approach is centered on active learning and creative thinking. I steer my students away from time consuming rote memorization and point them towards creative problem solving and promoting enlightened discussion. My enthusiasm for learning encourages and energizes students in the classroom. In closing, the thrust of my pedagogical orientation is to maximize course content in conjunction with outcome measurement, and to create a fun, exciting, and interactive learning environment. • Background in teaching and leadership– providing creative solutions and educational techniques for students in a nurturing environment, while applying knowledge in a multidisciplinary set of topics • Extensive knowledge in the topics of curriculum planning, creative learning tools, grant writing, community

I had the joy of raising, teaching, and mentoring my two children from birth and into young adult years and advising with unpredictable life experiences. My 10-year educational pathway as a non-traditional student challenged me to seek experiences in elementary grades (reading & writing tutor for six years), as well as, non-traditional students, teach English as a second language (ESL). I have experience in healthy lifestyle programming development-Bullying -(middle childhood), and -Darker Side of the Sun - (college level). I am all about making healthy lifestyle choices. It is my love for people of all ages, that drives me to see them become more confident, reach a higher level of competency, and experience joy and fulfillment. I use different tools to assess the best learning style of an individual, i.e., some learn best by listening, while others may learn best by touching and seei

I am a life-long learner. I believe that everyone learns and take their learning style into consideration when developing lessons. My goal is that students learn the fundamental content of the courses I teach. But beyond that, I hope to foster critical thinking, facilitate the acquisition of life-long learning skills, prepare students to function effectively in an information economy, and develop problem-solving strategies for doing so. SUNY Potsdam instructors provided me the opportunity to learn about and earn a Master's in Education with a focus on Reading and a BS in English Writing and Elementary Education. This journey began with an Associates Degree in Commercial Art from Sullivan County Community College. These areas of study have enabled me to teach in New York and Ohio as: Reading Specialist K-3, H.S. Reading Substitute, Jr. High Reading teacher, college instructor teaching

As before, since I do not have classroom teaching experience I'm not exactly sure what my style would be. Initially I feel I should explain that I do not stand a strict method. From the people I have tutored before I have learned that you need to adapt to different situations and different needs. Some students need more regimented discipline such as an outline of everything for every day and others need just a general idea of what is required, etc, etc. I am confident, and proud, in the fact that I can adapt to any situation. I may not have the experience, but I do have the knowledge and I do have the passion. Having attended Heidelberg College and receiving a Bachelor's degree in English, as well as a Bachelor's degree in Theater/Communications, I feel I have the necessary experience in order to educate others. Furthermore, I will receiving my Masters degree in English from Tiffin

I have many experiences in child care. When I was in my Sophomore year of high school I tutored elementary age children. I did that my Junior and Senior years as well. I took two years of early childhood education in college and in that time I tutored elementary students. I was an intern for a social service agency my Junior year of college and participated in an after school program where I helped the children complete homework and performed activities with them. I am currently a Social Worker working in a foster care agency. I provide weekly in home visits with my clients. I help some of the children on my caseload with their homework. The children I work with vary in ages. I love working with all children. I believe they all have their own learning style and will work with your child to find what way works best for them to reach their full potential. I'm very caring and very patient.
