I have been tutoring peers since before high school in math and science and as I have gotten older I have continued tutoring peers, colleagues, college, high school and middle school students. In addition to tutoring, I have been teaching off and on throughout my entire college and graduate school careers. I started teaching general chemistry labs in 1998 while I was a student at Mercer University and continued teaching until I graduated in 2001. While at Mercer, I was also involved with the Upward Bound program where I taught Physics and Chemistry to inner city high school students during the summer on Mercer's campus. Additionally, I was involved with an outreach program where we did science demonstrations in the local elementary schools. By the time I graduate from Mercer I knew I wanted to teach but I didn't know if I would prefer high school, college or graduate students. I de

I have a Bachelor of Science in Special Education – Specific Learning Disabilities and added an Elementary Education certification just to have the flexibility to move within these two fields.

Weather it be modified lessons or guided practice with the student so he/she can eventually work independently.

I have always loved working with children, in any capacity. Tutoring has not only combined my skills as a teacher but allowed me to work one on one with students in a way that is not possible in a classroom setting. I have had great success tutoring students of all backgrounds and academic levels because I strive to know them as individuals and find what works best for them. It is my belief that strong self-esteem is key to academic performance. Being genuine and providing continuity in instruction are elements of tutoring that I have consistently displayed throughout my years of experience and it has made all the difference for my students and for me. During and after completing my undergraduate and graduate degrees, I spent eight years as a volunteer tutor and three years as a paid tutor. I worked for Sylvan Learning Center in Melbourne, Florida and, most recently, as an AVID tutor for

I am driven to achieve a level of excellence in education.

I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate.

My teaching-style is rigorous yet kind. My students say that no one has ever criticized their writing and thought so thoroughly and constructively. I'm known for my patience working with students with foreign-language backgrounds and other disabilities such as a lack of attention and focus. I learned from my professors at Swarthmore College (and a few at Penn) how to project a non-B.S. style, since kids tend to intuitively realize when their teacher has no idea what he/she is talking about. Coming from a family of teachers and professors (who have also been my teachers), I'm confident that good teaching is in my bones. I never use technology just for the sake of using technology. I became a published author of game reviews for a computer magazine at age 15. I worked at the University of Pennsylvania in Chemical Engineering under an Army Research Office grant, then as a software developer

I am a firm believer that anyone can do anything with the right positive guidance. When I am teaching, my goal is to ensure student learning but also to make it fun and a memorable experience for the students. I have gone above and beyond to make sure my students are getting the best education that they deserve. I am a calm and nurturing teacher. I make it a relaxing, stress free atmosphere because I don't feel there is any need to make learning stressful and unenjoyable. My goal is to make the students feel comfortable and respect them so they can respect me. I recently graduated from Lewis University with an Elementary Education major and endorsements in language arts, math, and social studies. All four years of college, I was on the Deans list. I realy understand both my general education courses along with my teaching methods courses. I have had numerous teaching experiences in the c

My teaching style would be student centered. I love to incorporate hands on, creative learning activities in my lesson plans. Also, I relate my lessons to real life experiences. I will assess my students on a regular basis to ensure they are understanding the content. As a highly modivated individual, I have committed to being a life long learner. I completed my BS Criminal Justice online in 3 years. My desire to teach and educate children has remained with me. I have obtained a temporary certification in Elementary Education and will graduate from the Alternative Certification Program at PJC in 2010 and will be eligible for a Professional Certification in Elementary Education. I have experience tutoring students at the elementary level in grades K, 1, and 2nd. I tutored the students in reading and math. Also, I developed progress reports and held monthly meetings with parents.

I began teaching/tutoring while in graduate school. I tutored undergrads in sociology, psychology, and social statistics. I also taught driver's education to high school students while in grad school. After ten years working in law enforcement, I switched to social services and I have been mentoring children in foster care for the past twenty years. I try to keep the material fresh and I avoid boredom and repetition at all costs. One of my best tools to connect with a young person is through humor. If the student feels relaxed they are more likely to absorb the information. I also use reverse psychology to turn the tables so they actually find themselves teaching me the material. This has been a successful tool with children I have mentored as well as my own children.
