My name is Jennifer and I have more then 20 years of experience in the technology field.

As a French teacher, I encouraged learning by using a number of different manipulative, hand-on activities, and various forms of technology. By incorporating discussions and open-ended questions, I was able to facilitate a highly interactive and inquisitive atmosphere. In addition, I utilized weekly quizzes and monthly tests to track student progress, locate areas of weakness, and prepare students for finals exams. My goal is to increase student motivation, awareness, and understanding of French Language, while implementing interdisciplinary-based lessons involving grammar, vocabulary and reading comprehension. With over 8 years of hands-on, successful teaching experience, I’m confident in my ability and passion to be an excellent French Teacher. I have earned all my degrees in French area (West Africa, France and Quebec, Canada). Being a Native French and a versatile individual, I have

I have six children of my own and know that every child learns differently, even when they come from the same family. I believe the majority of children can master the material they are presented in school, but it is a matter of time. Many children take a little more time to understand the concepts and master the skills needed to move on to the next level. Sadly many of these children aren't given the time to do it and are just passed on to the next level. By doing this they fall further and further behind until they become discouraged to the point of quitting. I desire to reach those children. Not every child is an "A" student, but every child has his or her unique gifts. I strive to help each child find those gifts and to do the best he or she can in every area. I like to get to know the child and find the best way possible, whether it be modifying a curriculum or my own approa

I am a strong believer that a tutor is a friend first, and an instructor second. Many times I have found that a student's difficulties issued from personal matters, such as a lack of confidence, rather than specific weaknesses with the material. I always make every effort to allow a student to feel as comfortable as possible within the instructional dynamic, and in my experience, this has made all the difference. With regard to my methods of instruction, every student is very different, but I have found that making the material relatable to personal interests always induces an improvement. By casting the material in an attractive light, I have found that a student's motivation rapidly increases, with the added benefit that tutoring sessions become training sessions for their own passions, rather than rote education.

I truly believe that all children can learn with the right motivation. I have learned that it takes time to find the right strategy for some children, and not all children have the same strategy of learning. I enjoy working with children who others have given up on or can't seem to find the way to get to them. To me there is no greater joy than see the light in that child's eye, when someone has taken the time to help them get it...and they do get it. I love giving confidence back to a child who has lost it. I am a highly motivated and results oriented professional with exceptional leadership and communication skills. Experience in leading and motivating students, parents and collegues. Strong background in the development and implementation of extensive literature based lesson plans for cross curricular units.

Teaching social studies for so many years has allowed me to implement a great variety of teaching strategies, such as graphic organizers, cooperative learning, note-taking guides, debates, Socratic seminars, gallery walks, dramatic presentations, roundtable writing, independent studies, multi-media presentations, etc. As a middle school teacher, I learned quickly how to relate subject areas to the everyday lives of middle-schoolers. I am able to create assignments to cater to all of the multiple intelligences. I have an ability to break down abstract concepts in ways an early adolescent can understand. I strive for excellence in teaching, and I expect the same from my students, regardless of background. Most of all, I have discovered that it is true that students "don't care what you know until they know that you care." I have taught or tutored students in preschool, middle school,

I have experience in engineering which includes a solid understanding of math, calculus, statistics as well as physics. I have applied and practiced these skills in various business industries over my 12 year working career. I also have experience teaching at the under graduate level for the Measurement and Instrumentation course in the engineering program at Iowa State University. My teaching style is to first teach the basic principles and then teach how they can be extended and used to solve problems. By helping students understand the fundamentals and problem solving techniques, they are able to think for themselves. This allows them to think more independently and solve a wider variety of problems without relying on memorization.

As I have described earlier in my experience I have had many years contributing to the education of my siblings. Helping to make flash cards, and finding ways to cater to their learning types. My younger three siblings are very different, so their learning styles are no exception to this. So being able to not only understand what learning type they are, but taking that and finding new ways for them to learn is not only fulfilling but very enjoyable. I would take this same attitude with a child that is not a sibling as well. I have a degree in both Marketing and Advertising as well as a minor in Economics. After graduation I quickly moved to Charlotte and took a position as an assistant manager with a popular salon in the area. With this job and my knowledge from my degree I feel gives me experience of not only setting out plans and guide lines but also puts me in a position where I need
