A Little Bit About Me...

My education experience spans many areas. I have taught in middle and high school classrooms, have tutored for public school programs, tutored at after school learning centers, tutored in church programs, and managed a learning center as the human resources, business, sales, and education director in charge of all students programs from initial testing to post testing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience teaching G.E.D. students in various levels of Reading, Writing and Grammar. I have always enjoyed Language Arts and would be interested in teaching either Elementary, Middle School or High School students. I would enjoy this opportunity.
My teaching style would be similar to that of a coach. As a Tutor, I would strive to develop a student's potential while inspiring and motivating the student to learn new skills and to excel. My teaching style would focus on developing rapport, motivating, teaching and building the student's confidence. I would encourage the student to practice new skills and provide suggestions for continued improvement in order for the student to achieve their educational goals. I would hope to obtain a positive learning experience for everyone.

My teaching experience is based on teaching parts of a graduate-level course on Pest Management as a guest lecturer, the Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) position at Virginia Tech, on participating in conducting insect tours for local school groups, and on training temporary summer employees. I have a Master’s degree in Biology with concentration in Zoology and a PhD in Entomology. My 8 years of experience working as a research scientist allowed me to develop skills in writing proposals, lab reports and scientific papers.
I love teaching and I love working with children. It is very exciting to help them learn and see them realize they have acquired knowledge. My teaching approach consists of three main objectives. The first one is to deliver material in an organized way that will allow students to understand the basics of the subject. Second, to help students understand the appl ... read more

After graduating from Virginia Tech in 1973, I decided that I would enter the field of public education. After 6 years of successful and rewarding experiences in secondary education, I decided to return to college and obtain a Masters Degree in Education. Upon receiving my Masters in 1984, I taught at the post secondary level in both Virginia and North Carolina. At the post secondary level, I had the opportunity to teach a wide variety of subjects from Math to Business Administration.
I thoroughly enjoy teaching students at various ages and stages of development. I consider myself to be very creative, and I try to give the students as much hands-on experience as possible. I am constantly seeking feedback from the student in terms of how well I am presenting the subject matter, so my methods of teaching will vary. I am always open to new ideas. Failure is not a word in my teac ... read more

I enjoy teaching and working with students who are just learning to read. I believe all students can learn. It is my job to discover a student's learning style and fit my instruction to fit his or her needs. I have been using the program "No More Letter a Week" with my kindergarten and PreK students for the past three years. It incorporates movement, pictures, and songs when teaching students letters and letter sounds.
I have taught kindergarten for three years and Pre-K for one year. I have my masters degree in reading and literacy. I am currently teaching homebound for a local school system. I have a valid VA teaching license in Prek-3.

I have a very easy going way of teaching, which helps my students feel at ease and allows them to better focus on the task at hand. I believe the best teaching method is one that can apply academic principles to real life situations. This helps the student understand both the "how" and "why" of the discipline. Encouragement and patience are the qualities that a good teacher must have.
I have earned an MBA with a concentration in finance, which has given me a solid understanding of financial concepts. I also have a certificate in accounting, which provided me with an excellent understanding of accounting principles that ultimately helped me pass the CPA exam and become a licensed CPA. In addition to my formal education, I was a Marine Corps officer for nine years. I was able to develop an understanding of human behavior and apply this understanding to provide training and inst ... read more

I have accumulated 25 years of teaching experience, both in the classroom setting and on an individual basis. I taught English, remedial through college prep levels, in public education for 16 years, and then I moved into private school education for 9 years. I have especially enjoyed working with foreign exchange students, specifically German, Korean, Japanese, and Hispanic. I also have experience as a peer mentor for other educators. My expertise lies in the areas of written and spoken communication, with an emhasis on essay and research paper writing.
I believe an interactive approach to teaching is the most effective style of relaying information. Lecture with constant questioning and feedback has proven effective for my classroom situations in the past. I also have had great success with modeling the writing process in a step-by-step procedural format. My students and I both e ... read more
