Will improve educational and behavioral skills in learners.

I believe in a student-centered environment whereby I act a facilitator who guides and directs students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives, and encouraging students to develop criteria to make informed choices. My overall goal for students is to develop in students the capacity for independent action, initiative, and responsibility.
I have a plethora of experience teaching in the elementary, middle, and high schools. I developed tutoring programs where I taught students at all levels in test taking skills and in addition, I trained adults to teach students using various teaching strategies. My dissertation focused on running effective tutorial programs. Also, I have served as a Research Educational Specialist to evaluate effective after school tutorial programs. Therefore, I know first hand best practices to employ to help students and teachers succ ... read more

Teaching the way that my students learn best.

I have teaching experience with both general education and special education on the middle school level as well as the elementary level through my private school experience. I am currently a general education reading teacher who has high expectation of all of my students. My teaching experience includes working with general education and team taught settings with students who have various IEP’s goals and objectives for the past 6 years. As a teacher, I think that it is very important to meet the needs of the whole child as well as their educational needs. I strive to show my students respect, honesty, kindness, and a kind heart at all times. In doing so, I have achieved many success moments with encouraging my students to meet their goals and objectives. Furthermore, my current position enables me to provide my second language learner students with “fundamental reading skills” ... read more

"Even if I knew that tomorrow this would all come to an end, I would still plant my apple seed" - Martin Luther
I am proud to say that I have spent the last 9 years in public education as a teacher in a self-contained Speech & Language classroom. Throughout my 9 years, I have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful students, who I am happy to say have shown lots of success in my Speech & Language classroom. I enter the classroom with the belief that all children can be successful. Prior to entering public education, I worked as a Pre-K teaching assistant, homecare provider, one-to-one student aide, and camp counselor. I became interested in education as an undergraduate student at Hunter College where my coursework and surroundings allowed me to explore multicultural and diverse learning. Following my undergraduate studies, I was proudly accepted into the New York City T ... read more

I love teaching and working with children. I try to make my lessons enjoyable for my students. I especially enjoy hands-on lessons where the students are very involved.

Students have a gift for learning, but difficulty in applications. I have a very special way of working with children to understand underlying problems with their personal difficulties in learning, strategically show students new applications and memory skills to use to increase comprehension, thus the student understands and is motivated to learn. I make learning fun, hands-on, and a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Students see progress and are intensely energetic to learn more.
I have taught AP Physics, AP Biology, Chemistry, and Ecology for 10 years, taught MG Science, 5th grade, Kindergarten and Pre-K. I am GA State certified and on the state Literacy/Comprehension Board, and Special Ed endorsed. I have tutored all levels of students to include gifted, ELL, ESOL, and special challenged students.

I am a patient teacher and have a passion for helping others to succeed at all they may attempt. I also enjoy teaching children and young adults new things and skills to aid them in the future. There is no greater reward than seeing a former student after they have become a successful adult.
In addition to a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree, I possess 25 years of experience in Accounts Payable, Receivable and General Accounting. The record-keeping nature of my past experience has given me a facility for detail, patience and the ability to keep accurate records.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a passion for educating children. In the process, I have been able to observe different teachers and their methods. So I was able to form my own tutoring style and method that has worked pretty well for me and my students. I have always encouraged my students to learn by letting them have a more hands on approach and also more interactive. I firmly believe, that even with adults and more in children, in order to hold their attention, they must be interested and involved. So I strive to make my lesson plans captivating and interactive. I believe children can learn easier if they enjoy doing it.
I started tutoring in different after-school programs in New York City while in high school. I enjoyed it so much that even while in college, I continued tutoring and being a group counselor. I even had the opportunity to work with a one-on-one tutoring agency in which I tra ... read more

Over the past 12 years, I've earned numerous degrees and certifications, however, none of them compare with what I've learned from the students I've personally taught. Each year in the classroom has taught me that children learn and thrive on a diverse number of situations and goals. I've learned that there is no one right way for any child, and that finding the link to their understanding is essential. As an educator, I believe that additional means of differentiation and individualized learning is desperately needed.
I sincerely believe that my specific learning style is one of trust and love. I firmly believe that in order for a student to learn, they must both trust you and believe that you like or love them. Knowing this, my style of teaching is a personal one. I prefer to push my students within their comfort level. Many of my students often say "this is too hard." Whe ... read more

I have earned a Master in Management and an Undergraduate degree in Finance, Marketing and International Business. I am also bilingual and fluently speak french. My work experience coupled with my educational background would make me a valuable tutor to any student needing my help. In the past I have conducted training courses for employees, I was also a tutor during my years in college.
I love teaching children and adults alike. I beleive teaching should be tailored to each individual, because we are all different and learn at a different pace. I also beleive that you should make your teaching relatable to the subject if interest of the student.If a student has a passion for mussic try to use that as an avenue for your lessons,once they are engaged in something they are passionate about it would make learning even more fun.

A Little Bit About Me...

I completed my Bachelor's degree in 2001. I then decided to pursue my Master's in 2006 to get my Master's in Biology, while taking my courses I had to also take extra courses to refresh my previous biology classes. Some of which includes Human Anatomy, Physics, Neuroscience, and Chemical Analysis. I have had experience tutoring before but at the time I was tutoring a peer of mine in high school. I currently work with an eight year old on a regular basis in numerous subjects. I have also tutored some of my previous peers in some of my grad school courses.
I would love to say that I have only one teaching style but I cannot tell you that. What I can say is that my teaching style will adapt to the student. When you have a student that catches on fast you are able to test their ability to understand what was taught in numerous ways. However for a student that may not grasp a co ... read more
