Teaching is a very strong passion of mine and I intend on continuously working in the field of Education for many years. I am a firm believer that every child has the ability to learn to their fullest potentional and it is my job to give them the tools to achieve this. I believe children learn best through visual aid, repetition, and example to ensure that the information has been received and retained for future use. Given the proper attention, patience, and guidance, every child has the ability to be successful both in and outside the classroom. Every child should have the opportunity to be successful in the classroom and I strive to help make that a possibility.

I have worked with children of all ages in different environments and capacities for the past 20 years. It all started at the YMCA Afterschool and Summer Programs which gave me my first satisfactory feeling for being around young people. That led to substitute teaching and to 6 years in the classroom with 6th graders. For 1 year I taught English as a Foreign Language in Slovenia and Germany. Finally, I yearned for more one on one experience which resulted in being a Independent Study teacher for the past 5 years. I believe my variety of experiences as an educator has prepared me well to help a wide range of students.
With my background and degree being in music, I have enjoyed finding creative ways to induce wonder and enthusiasm for learning in my students. I have always accomplished this with the utmost patience, consideration and respect. This last quality in my style (respect o ... read more

Individualizing English grammar, composition, and lit. instruction became a teaching strength during 12 years in secondary schools. Skills for ELLs were honed by nine years at a Japanese university. I tutored adults in my “Have English-Will Travel” company serving personal/business needs of Silicon Valley firms’ foreign nationals. Effectiveness with L1 and L2 speakers is augmented by detailed assessment and diagnosis of skills, with personalized remediation for desired proficiencies. Living in three cultures and specializing in Intercultural Communication enables connection with a variety of students. Publications reflect funded investigation of language minority students’ academic progress and well-being in Japanese public schools.

A Little Bit About Me...

In all my professional teaching experiences I strive to give my students the best education they deserve. I am a strong advocate of teaching phonics and reading skills in the early stage of learning. All students need the basic foundation of reading and writing. I taught in Elementary grades for many years and I went through all types of learning abilities. This experience allowed me to alter, modify, and structure instructions according to each individual's learning needs. As stated in my resume, I was appointed many times to conduct trainings for new and struggling teachers, especially in Reading and Writing. Most of the time I initiated and conducted my own tutorial programs after schools or during the weekends.
Teaching is my passion and would not trade this profession. I am result focused and motivated to achieve it. I believe in goal setting and I work hard to appropriate ... read more
