A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a nanny for many years to children in an after school homework help environment. I did my student teaching in a St. Louis public school with urban low income children. I am currently in a masters program to become a reading specialist. Where I will be an intervention teacher who helps lower reading students reach a reading level comparable to their grade level. I will also be taking a certification test this school year to become certified to teach family and consumer sciences for a k-12 classroom.

Live. Love. Learn.

As a certified TESL instructor, I have worked as an ESL teacher for Aston English in Weihai, China for the past 12 months. Before my time teaching abroad, I volunteered in an English learning class at Ozark Technical Community College in Springfield, Missouri. I have experience with all ages - mostly Kindergarten age through High School - with some experience teaching adults, as well. I look forward to continuing my teaching experience with you!
My ESL teaching style includes an approach called 'whole language learning', which includes reading, writing, speaking, and listening. I also implement interactive learning (i.e. conversation and dialogues, interactive websites, etc.) and learning through play/games. I always adapt my teaching methods to my students' learning styles, whether they be auditory, visual, TPR, tactile, or analytic learners.

My experience, specifically within the past two years, has been extensive. During this time spent at Webster University I was hired by the Student Literacy Corps, a non-profit organization funded by the university for the purpose of educating students in the St. Louis Public School District in English and writing. In addition to experience in the classroom in developing and implementing lesson plans and developing interpersonal skills with children of many ages, I also studied subjects such as calculus, astrophysics, South African history, and music theory. My experience in school has made me a well-rounded academic, and my experience outside of school has made me a well-rounded educator. I have confidence that I possess the tools necessary to help a child excel in any subject they choose to study.
My goal is to help children in any context that I can. Although I have my sights set ... read more

In 2006, I received my Juris Doctorate from Saint Louis University School of Law with a concentration in criminal litigation.

More About This Tutor...

Learning is the first step to success, and I am a big advocate on academics. I take pride in teaching and making sure that the student is learning properly. I believe that children learn differently and what makes a good teacher/tutor you have to be able to teach children in the way that they can learn. My teaching strategy is getting to know the student as a person first and a student second. Knowing them helps me to understand their struggles in school and also with the class work. I will design a curriculum that will fit each student and their needs. As a tutor my overall goal is for the student to overcome their struggles in academics, as well as gain the confidence to succeed.
My current occupation is working as a paralegal. However, I am looking for opportunities to transition into the field of education. My passion and natural abilities are best suited for nurturing and teac ... read more

I believe that the most important element determining the degree to which a student will achieve is the level of expectations that are set for them. High, clear expectations with consistent feedback on progress is absolutely critical to making the most significant academic gains possible. Students should know exactly what they are expected to do, and should be able to track their own progress towards demanding goals along the way. When students are asked to excel, they rise higher than they thought they could.
During my senior year at Kalamazoo College I tutored in the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT), as well as designing the curriculum for and delivering a free class in the same topic. I graduated as the top Philosophy student in my class after serving as an Honors Teaching Assistant in Philosophy of Law, and then continued on to undergo summer training with Teach For Americ ... read more

I focus on beginning with a student where they are at on a certain topic. I mold a lesson to integrate as much as possible with the student's pre-existing life interests. In nine years of teaching high school, my evaluators always compliment my use of fun and humor in keeping students engaged.
I have been teaching and coaching athletics for nine years, mostly high school science, but also reading, SAT/ACT preparation, and other topics. I have also published two children's books and three young adult fiction books. My B.S. is in Biochemistry from the University of Missouri-Columbia.

While I was attending college I served as a Certified Trainer at Outback Steakhouse for several years. I taught our classroom for trainees, and I also developed and trained key employees. In addition, I volunteered at the International Institute and have helped newly arrived immigrants American customs and basic English syntax and grammar. Soon thereafter I earned two BA degrees, one in French and the other in Political Science. Currently, I aid in the rehabilitation of socially disadvantaged children by maintaining a therapeutic environment, and teaching everyday social skills.
I sincerely have a passion for helping others. I enjoy learning and growing together. Also, I believe that one has the potential to learn from anyone, young or old; it is merely an open mind that is vital. Also, I feel that sharing ideas and concepts in an open forum is conducive to healthy learning. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have wanted to teach students my entire life. I began tutoring when I went to college. There I tutored my peers in composition and literature. As I continued my college career, I had three semesters where I taught grades 7-12. I received my BS in Education in December of 2007 and began teaching high school English at the sophomore level at a local high school. While working there, I got a job offer closer to home and began that in July of 2008. There I taught 9-12 British Literature, College Composition, Creative Writing, American Literature, and Drama. I currently have my teaching certificate which certifies me to teach 9-12 English (Language Arts) in the state of Missouri.
I am a very fun and energetic person, therefore, my teaching style reflects my personality. I usually use hands on activities to keep the students engaged and allow them to be responsible for their own ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have over eight years experience as a professional educator. It is a privilege to help students become more confident and feel successful in their abilities. I have worked with students of different ages and ability levels. I love helping students realize their personal potential and reach an understanding of something of which they didn't realize they were capable.
I firmly believe that every student has great potential for learning. It is my job as an educator to meet them where they are and help them unlock that potential. I infuse humor, real-world connections, and personal experience into my lessons to make them more meaningful for my students.

Speaking to children of all ages comes naturally to me. My parents both love being teachers and have been in the game for over 30 years a piece! I traveled to schools to give presentations on my marine mammal experiences to grades K-8. I currently work for the Education Department at the Saint Louis ZOO where we strive to keep learning a blast! I believe learning sticks when it's fun and stumbled upon! A GOOD teacher can be a gift and set a fire in a child or young adult to take on the world! I love sharing my passion for learning and understanding. I hope it's contagious!
I have always had a knack for the sciences and left the Midwest to follow my love of Marine Biology. While in school, I revisted my interest in the arts (painting, piano, and animation). It was then I realized I was passionate about so many topics and didn't want to limit myself to one thing! I've work ... read more
