My teaching experience has been both formal and informal. I’ve been a teaching assistant to college undergraduates, an instructor in management studies and also an instructor for dog obedience classes (you’re really teaching the owner, not the dog). My informal experience has been with my kids, helping them with homework and as a scout den leader and a coach for baseball and softball, and now with my grandkids. In my professional life, I brought new products and services to market which involved educating and orienting individuals and groups through demonstrating and teaching opportunities. My teaching style is best described as adaptive. We all learn differently, some more so by doing, others by seeing or listening, and others by thinking it through. Learning is a combination of processes, emphasizing what works best. For me, the approach is to use what works best for the st

Having an associate degree in both the Paralegal and Early Childhood Education fields motivates me to stand up for the rights of children and to work with and teach young children as they grow and learn. I have worked with my daughter's home tutor for three years and also volunteered in her after-school program for four years. I admire the spark in a young child's eyes when they learn a new word or do something extraordinary. Sharing that excitement and giving the praise and encouragement is priceless. During my ten years of higher education and work experience, I have gained phenenominal creative writing skills writing research papers and reflections of childhood development,behaviors, and curriculum. Teaching young children takes dedication and respect. As a teacher, parent, tutor, cargiver, or whatever role one is in a young child's early years is also an example and a role model.

When I was in high school, I had a pre-calculus tutor. While I paid attention in class, I had trouble working out the math problems at home. I thank my tutor for the A I received in that subject. I believe every student can benefit from some one-on-one attention, whether the child is solving a math problem, researching for an essay, or learning to read. I believe in leading by example in problem solving, and by asking questions to help the child piece together an essay or problem. I am a graduate of Marymount University in Arlington, VA. I hold a dual bachelor's degree in History and English. I have taken several science and math courses as well at the college level. While I attended Marymount University, I tutored for 2.5 years in the subject areas of Writing, Reading, Vocabulary, English, and History. I also have experience as a Stockbroker with Fidelity Investments for 2.5 year

As a United States Air Force Academy graduate, I believe in the value of leadership, quality teaching and training. I have a BS in Basic Sciences; my strengths are in math, science and writing. I have strong spatial orientation skills and have written analyses of world military operations and political situations for the U.S. Air Force general staff. I have been a NAUI scuba instructor since 1991, a trumpet teacher for several years, and an inorganic chemistry and algebra tutor for the last year. I think learning and discovering is a "magical" experience. My memories of the first time I learned about the solar system and space exploration was mind-boggling. That is what I seek to bring to students--to find their interests and develop them so they have the drive to learn. I sincerely believe the process of learning and interacting with adults or mentors is how we learn social skills an
