The students of today will be the first generation to collaborate on a global scale and it will be necessary that they have an understanding of cultures other than their own if they are to succeed. This is where I feel that having knowledge of history and current events plays a crucial role. I believe that to truly know where you are going you have to understand where you have come from. I fully intend to give my students the experiences they need to become knowledgeable partners in the global community. The two main philosophies I try to live my life by are giving back more than what has been given to me, and always leave something in better condition then I found it. Life has not always been an easy road, but through hard work and determination I have risen above any adversity life has presented. I believe the juxtaposition of these philosophies with the leadership skills acquired thro

I am comfortable teaching up to and including Algebra,any history, and elementary school science. I don't just want to regurgitate information to a student; I want them to learn. I allow them to try to complete and assignment, and if they ask questions, I think of the child's learning style. How they learn affects how I explain it to them or how I show them. If they are having trouble understanding, i will model their question and answer it correctly. I will ten ask them the differences between the two.

I encourage students to relate among themselves, learn from one another. I listen to students for their knowledge and power. I learn from them, as they from me. I delight in lecture methods, as I do in smaller group situations, in which students team-up in groups of 4-5 and work through projects as a team. They then present their findings as a team. It's proven a remarkably powerful for students to produce results. I delight in team-teaching as well, both with other teachers and administrators. I'm committed to 'selfless service' as teacher. Since my days as a graduate student, I love to learn, as both student and teacher. As teacher, I've taught Humanities at the Junior College level, teaching Fine Arts, Music, English literature and Philosophy. I've taught students to make connections, relationships, between what they see and hear. Sight and Sound, then, allow them

I truly enjoy teaching Math and Science, the subjects that many students find challenging, difficult, or even boring. I believe that any child can succeed in these areas if the teacher/tutor makes the subject understandable. I am confident that I can make these subjects understandable with much encouragement and patience, and even a "reward" wouldn't hurt. Most of my teaching experience has been the home-schooling/tutoring of my own children for several years. I have also tutored students in the "Linkage to Learning" summer tutoring program with the Maryland public school system. My A.A. and B.S. degrees have enabled me to appreciate learning and better understand the subjects I teach.
