With experience and training in psychology and evaluation, I bring a unique approach to working with each child as an individual, quickly assessing learning style, making the most of strengths while coaxing the gradual improvement of what is more challenging. One thing I've learned is that all of us love doing what we are good at and success breeds more success so working with that success, tapping into your child's perception of self as learning, productive, and accomplishing whatever goals they set for themselves. Success breeds success and a good teacher creates an environment that begins at a nexus of challenge sufficient to excite and entertain while also possible. I believe that positive reinforcement is effective and discouragement can be avoided. My experiences are extensive both academically and in real world applications which serve to bring what students learn and study to lif

My Masters degree in education and several years of a combination of teaching, training and tutoring with persons of various age groups and diverse backgrounds have prepared me to work well with any age group. Additionally my Masters degree in economics is of additional benefit in working with students in a wide variety of subjects. Both my graduate degrees and professional experiences have required developing solid verbal and written communication skills which greatly benefit my students. I enjoy working with all age groups and am able to interact very effectively with students from diverse backgrounds. Although as teacher/tutor/trainer I am keen to share the knowledge I have with students, I believe in challenging my students and encouraging them to not be afraid to learn through making mistakes. I also believe students learn in various ways, some are visual learners etc… while some ar

Great Question. I have been in classes where I found learning a challenge. This is what makes me unique as a teacher. I build a relationship with the student. I do my best to not only explain the material, but how they can possibly use it in the future. I also have the best patience. I will go over something over and over again, searching in my own mind for a different to present the material so it sticks. I have always been a good teacher. I scored very well on the SAT exams, and I have extensive tutoring experience. I scored in the upper 10 percentile on the Mathmatics portion of the SATs. I also have been studying non stop for the CPA exam. I would love to pass on knowledge to someone else. Tutoring is rewarding.

I am simply a teacher at heart. I believe it is important that the teacher really cares about the individual for learning to take place. I like to win my students with fun and games and with special one on one attention that makes them feel important and capable of succeeding. During the first meetings, I like to start them reading from children’s magazines where I let them choose the story or feature. Then, we move into my reading-strategies based style with grade appropriate award winning fiction and nonfiction. My teaching of children began in 2004, when I taught a Sunday school class to 5-year-olds at my church. Then in 2005, I assisted with teaching the local children at a small mission church. During the 2006 through 2008 school years I subbed in mostly elementary schools, but I also subbed in some middle and high schools. Since 2007, I have been tutoring Jefferson County Public Sc

As a former high school English teacher, I had the honor of working with student from the 9th to the 12th grade, as well as covering all major areas: composition, literature, spelling, vocabulary and everything else in between. In addition, my advanced schooling and training have given me a wife array of teachable skills - everything from test prep to basic reading skills to a strong background in history. I am a dynamic and charismatic teacher who thrives in small group settings. I inject real world examples and allusions while I thoroughly discuss the basics of all skills. I love to learn, to discuss, to research and to find answers to questions, and this passion allows me to provide a pathway for students to learn to their fullest potential. I try to make learning fun, exciting and full of life, as this is the way I see it.

A child must learn to read fluently with the ability to comprehend information from texts. The basics of mathematics must be set in place so that more abstract ideas may be taught. Along with these two components, a student needs to acquire the ability to write thoughts, information, and facts confidently. Instruction should be student centered and address all intelligences.. It is critical to be aware that children learn in many different ways. Text book learning gives application, but it is also important to include a variety of teaching techniques in the curriculum to maximize knowledge, retention, and practicality.It is critical to incorporate , experiments, inquiries, role play, and virtual field trips into the instruction.

I've worked with children in various educational and tutorial capacities over the past years and have a firm belief that every child’s capabilities as a student are connected to the capability of the teacher/tutor to understand the needs of the individual student. I have a strong belief that with patience, persistence and positive reinforcement that every child can do their best. I have six years experience working with children of all ages in an educational capacity. I worked as a literacy tutor and I taught autistic pre-schoolers in the public school system. I also recently returned from teaching English (ESL conversation, reading and comprehension, writing and grammar) in South Korea where I worked and lived for eighteen months. I am now currently working as a substitute teacher in the public school system teaching all ages.

I have earned a BA in English. In earning that degree I have taken several linguistic classed. With that said my knowledge of the written and spoken language is pretty strong. With holding an English degree I am trained to comprehend what I have read as well as analyzing the material. During my undergraduate years I have helped kids and peers to learn how to speed read, reading comprehension, as well as how to write a strong paper. I like to make a difference in a child's life. I enjoy seeing the child understand what they have read or being able to sound a word out and understand its meaning. I think that in today's time a lot of students do not understand how to write a well worded paper and this skill is very useful in the higher years of one's education. I also believe that reading comprehension is important since this skill is often used in standardized tests. I am patient and am ab

I have always loved helping others, and it brings much joy to my life. I seem to have a natural knack for breaking down broad objectives into little parts and explaining them to others in a way they can understand. I am a patient and enthusiastic teacher and believe that everyone can learn...somehow. As a high school educator, I worked with many types of learners, from students with special needs to the most gifted, and was able to find a way to help each of them succeed. Whether it was pairing higher achievers with lower achievers for classroom activities, assigning them enrichment activities to be completed outside of the classroom environment, or through private instruction after school hours, I found a way. I possess an M. A. degree in Spanish, as well as a B. A. in psychology, and have a wide array of teaching experience. I’ve taught Spanish at the high school for over 6 years,
