Composition is one of my top subjects! Have extensive writing background in both journalistic and creative styles.

I have extensive experience in writing/composition from years in marketing and public relations. Although I do not have my permanent teaching certification, I have extensive experience in teaching English/Language Arts and literature to middle school and high school students and have other teaching experience at the university level.
I try to make things more interesting with activities and significant interaction, avoiding just talking at my students. Engaging would be my style.

Presentation, Q&A
Learning is my passion. Teaching is completing the learning cycle and fulfills the need to share my knowledge as well as to excite interest in many academic areas. My motto is "You may not like a subject and that's ok...just know why you don't like it. Most people discover that when really pressed to find a reason, can't and usually end up admitting that the course isn't so bad."

Being in college for four years exposed me to social environments that I normally wouldn't have been able to encounter on a day to day basis. Whether I was learning on my own, working with or helping fellow classmates, or even just observing how the professors worked with us, I was always learing new concepts or methods of how to interact with a wide variety of characteristics in a diverse group of people. And due to the difficulty of my major, I feel that by being able to communicate well with others in this area I could handle various other scenarios as well. I am highly self-motivated and enjoy sharing my knowledge and ideas with others.
When a question is asked, I am not going to simply just tell the student the answer. I would want them to think it out and try and figure it out for themselves. I would however guide them in the right direction and even ask them other quest ... read more

After serving in the US Army as a Russian Voice Interceptor, and raising a family, I returned to university. My military experience instilled in me a great amount of self discipline and motivation, and raising three small boys taught me great amounts of patience. I obtained a Master's in English from Kent State while teaching composition and literature classes and then went on to the Ph D program at UNCG where I completed all requirements but the dissertation. I moved to North Wales where I lived until a month ago. Living and traveling in another country has opened up my eyes to many different cultures and expreriences.

I have always wanted to be a teacher, I couldn't really see myself doing anything else. I try to make learning and inclusive experience for all children. I feel that sometimes children's different learning styles get overlooked and then as a community we have a child that is left feeling that they are unworthy. My goal is to help all children learn at their pace and at their skill level, not at some standard set by the state. I want the children I spend time with to feel good about their learning experience and to enjoy themselves.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a person who holds an MS degree in Horticulture, possesses excellent interpersonal skills and has a broad and deep knowledge of a variety of subjects, I am very well qualified to help students succeed. Throughout my years in education, I've always relished the opportunity to help children overcome the challenges they face. This has been accomplished through instruction in the classroom in my work at the church and through individual one-on-one study at their home in a variety of subject areas. I've especially enjoyed seeing my students acquire understanding in many areas of math and science.

Recently, I obtained my Master's Degree in the Art of Teaching Language Arts 7-12. I have worked as a substitute, Ohio Achievement Test Tutor, and summer school teacher for the past five years. As well as working with area schools, I have tutoring many students on my own time. References are available for your viewing.
I beleive that patience and kindness are a key factor of working with students. As students are attempting to master content that is difficult, the teacher should demonstrate encouragement and patience. I also believe students learn in different manners. Therefore, if a student is not comprehending the information in the traditional manner, then a different approach is necessary.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with children for over ten years. I specialize in helping children who struggle with comprehending math and English. I understand that all children cannot learn in the same manner. As a tutor, I use several different curriculum materials to help students who do not learn with just paper and pencil alone. Math and English can be abstract to young students; and very difficult when one does not understand how to reach students. I believe I have the skills required to reach any child who struggles with learning. Once a child grasps the basic skills, they can learn anything!

I am a type of teacher who like to focus in on both what the students knows and what they don't know. After the assessment, I try to pull those two parts together so that they can effectively understand concepts in a wholistic picture.
