Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style. Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back.

I love helping others achieve their goals and enjoy working with eager learners of all ages. Three components guide my role and teaching style: 1) Be prepared. I understand and appreciate my responsibility to provide students with substantive information and marketable skills such as critical thinking and writing. 2) Encourage a safe and stimulating learning environment, treating students with respectfully. In brief, I do not lecture to my students but rather engage them through dialogue. 3) Help students understand the relevance of the subject matter by using real world examples, where possible.

I enjoy teaching and working with children of all ages. I received an award for classroom management, and work well with students who are learning English as a second language. I believe all children have the potential to excel if given the opportunity. I believe that attitude and approach create the climate in a classroom. I believe that learning is growth and not accumulation. I also believe a student must believe a teacher cares before they will care what a teacher knows. It is also important for a teacher to help a student develop positive self-esteem.

I love working with all ages but I believe K-12 fits me best. I try to encourage students to do and be their very best by telling them "they can do it" & being optimistic. I'm a very compassionate person and believe all students have great potential and it shows with how I converse with all students. Personally, I find helping others help themselves is very rewarding and uplifting. I love to see student's eyes light up when they solve a problem or understand a concept...

After spending 16 years coaching, mentoring and training individuals in 2 fortune 500 companies I have returned to school at the University of Utah to complete by Bachelors in Mathematics. I am currently a senior taking two classes and will graduate in June 2011. With my years teaching young adults - adults it has given me an immense amount of patience and listening skills to be able to understand what each student needs. I have personally tutored mathematics to individuals as well. I love working with kids, especially the difficult ones. I find success in being able to help kids learn a subject that they have been told by many that it is difficult. Math is easy with the right patience, and ability to explain in many different ways. I have both. Also, you have to love what you do, and teaching math is something that I love!
