Accomplished reporter/writer, Los Angeles Daily News. Teacher's Aide, Los Angeles Unified School District. Bachelor of Arts, Journalism, CSUN. Over the years I gained a wealth of experience and training to work with professionals in journalism and in education. The two are related, because they are a part of communication, to work with people and to help someone get an education.
My teaching style encourages a person to ask questions, to think independently, to challenge themselves, to use language they can understand, and my style is strict, but flexible.

My training in rhetoric, speech, and debate has taught me the importance of speaking clearly and articulately. This means that I pay close attention to language and I try to bring out that quality in my students. Other methods that I use come from my time as a foreign language teacher. Here, repetition and practice of introduced concepts are key. It's not enough to simply pass on ideas and words, the student must engage with the material for it to become real. Even though I might teach to high standards I am a very easy going person!
Having graduated with honors from a top university, the greatest asset I offer comes from my real world teaching experience. During my tenure as a substitute I have taught at all levels, from kindergarten to middle-aged adults, in all subject areas. Even as a young person I was involved with teaching others; I first began as a teacher's aid in high ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

From elementary age, I've studied biological science and thoroughly enjoy it. Since 1987, I have taught part-time in addition to my full time jobs. Subjects taught include human anatomy, physiology, biology, genetics as well as environmental topics and biotechnology laboratory skills. My students tell me I explain complex topics so they understand, take time to answer their questions thoroughly and enjoy my interaction with them.
I like interacting with students and children, figuring out how to answer their needs and helping them succeed. I like inquiry based learning. That way, I am an expert "guide" for students than a "lecturer." To make a positive difference in your child's education is a wonderful possibility for me and assisting them in reaching their potential would be a delight. I am clear that my objective is to support your child's learning. To that end, I am patient, ge ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Interlochen Arts Academy unlocked the artist within me. Their educational styles and values continue to inspire me as an educator. Hope College and continuing education furthers me with a variety of tools to design curriculum. Versatility together with concentrations in both Painting and Clay, an appreciation for the liberal arts, diversified cultural environments, and vivid discourses have guided me to point out new directions for my students. I also have a wide background in tutoring Math, English, GED prep and Early Reading. I believe this experience, enthusiasm, brings me the ability to connect with students.
My objective as an educator is to be a compass that enlightens young minds, guiding them to discover hidden talents and deepen existing gifts. Mastery is best achieved through active learning, giving students a variety of individualized tools to measure, evaluate, and co ... read more

During my years at Gannon University, I tutored for the state-funded CAAP program. I tutored college students in English Composition, French, Spanish, Theology, Philosophy. I also had the opportunity to tutor an elementary student in Math, English, Science and Theology for 2 years. I have a BA in Philosophy and Psychology with minors in French and Political Science from this university and had wished to pursue the BA in French from the University of Arizona but leadership opportunities arose at work, limiting my ability to take full-time classes. I am well versed in APA format as I have had to utilize this format for my Psychology coursework.
I enjoy being able to share the knowledge that I have accumulated during my years of life and education. I am generally able to frame information in a way that is mentally accessible to all students so that they can grasp it for themselves. I ... read more
