If you have the desire to learn then you can learn!

I am very patient and I don't miss a step in any problem!
I have worked very hard to go from learning fractions to calculus as an adult and have struggled very much with learning, but now since I have been there, I am able to help many people of all different levels in math to be successfull too! I am all to familiar with the feeling of "I can't learn this subject" "I am not smart enough to do it" I can tell you that anyone can do it with alittle hard work and desire.

Special Education is one of my top subjects!

I tend to use three different teaching styles. Demonstrator or Personal Model, Facilitator and Delegator. However, I find that students learn best when teaching styles best match the students learning styles.
I have taught at the primary and secondary grade level in all subject areas. I have been a substitute for two years and have worked within diverse school districts around Ohio. I hold a B.S degree with Latin Honors in Special Education K-12 and have taken various courses for reading specialist. I attended Ohio State University for two years and Ohio Dominican University. I continue to further my education so that I can provide the best education to the students that I work with throughout the year.

Special Education is one of my top subjects!

Due to my special education training, I am able to determine a student's learning style and teach to their strength. I also like to educate students about the different learning styles and make them aware of their learning strengths.
Columbus Public Schools 1987-1997: During this time period, I taught at the high school, middle school, and elementary level. I then left formal education to stay home with my children. While at home raising my daughters, I did home tutoring from 1989-2006. I then returned to teaching by doing home instruction for Bloom-Carroll (2003-2004)and Fairfield Union (2005). I then did two long-term subbing jobs at Pickerington HS North and Lakeview Junior High School in Pickerington for Intervention Specialists (2006 & 2007). The following school year I was hired by Lancaster Thomas Ewing for a teacher that retired in October to finish out the school year. The ... read more

I am a dedicated and motivated teacher who is a prepared, yet flexible educator who truly cares for the education of each student.

It is essential to work together to ensure the education of each student to his or her best potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children of all ages and I believe that all children should have an equitable education. Because of the skills and abilities I possess in reading I have been able to help my own child achieve beyond her grade level and she is currently in the gifted program for reading. Because I am a school counselor by profession I make sure that I always listen to students and help them overcome any obstacles they may face. I believe that with individual attention all students are capable of excelling in their academics.
During my undergraduate studies at OSU I was trained by Americorps to tutor elementary students in reading and math. I worked for two years in the Columbus Public School System helping students that were behind their grade level in those subject areas. In my current high school position I teach a Career Based Intervention class and I assist students with thei ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy working with all children in an educational setting, although I prefer grades k-5. It is very rewarding for me when I see a child actually retaining what is being taught to them. IN China they have a philosophy on teaching and learning. Learning has two parts. The first part is being taught how to do something. However it is not a complete process until the knowledge can be demonstrated by the student without the teacher. It is also important to realize that children are all capable of learning but not all children learn the same way. A good educator must always be prepared to differentiate instruction for the individual student being taught. I do the best I can to make sure I am always aware of this and modify lessons accordingly.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. I am a firm believer that all students have the capability of learning through differentiated instruction. I love to see students succeed in learning. I am flexible, patient, and respectful. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives as the make a difference in mine.
In a transition of my life for my children I became a substitute teacher. I have enjoyed the seven years of subbing for the Columbus Public Schools. Watching children excel in their learning abilities gave me the opportunity to pursue an education in Elementary Education. During the last three years I have tutored students in math and reading.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a recent college graduate, I feel that I have received the formal training necessary to become a teacher. I have obtained a BS in Early Childhood Education. Over the past two years I have also spent time tutoring elementary school children in the subject of reading, and also spent about 3 months working one on one with various students in a nearby school district.
I believe that all children should receive the extra help that they need. Often time in the classroom, a teacher does not have the time to give the support of the needs of each student in the classroom. Teachers and tutors should try their best to make sure they focus on individual needs of the students so that they can help them succeed.
