In having a great passion for working with/teaching children, I think that it is immensely important to remember that everyone has a different way of learning. Some ways work better for some as opposed to others. My teaching style is always based around the children that I am teaching. Overall, I have found that there are a lot of students out there that are best able to learn by hands activities and visual cues. While I do find this to be the best method, I am not opposed to trying out new things to help the children learn to the best of their abilities, as I am a very patient and understanding teacher. In having a bachelors degree in Psychology, I have been fortunate enough to have worked at various places, all in which have dealt with constant interaction with people. I have had a great deal of experience substitute teaching children, to waiting on the elderly at a Sunday brunch. My p

I spent nine semester at FMCC in the TRiO Student Support Services program. I began as a part time tutor and after one semester the program director saw it prudent to keep me on.

In my spare time I do private in home tutoring for students seeking to improve their grades and become adept at taking standardized tests.

I absolutely love teaching. I believe a teacher must be an inspirational role model and in order to inspire students, a teacher must be fully engaged in the learning process. I am patient, caring, and understanding. Throughout the course of my career, I had wonderful opportunities to teach diverse groups of students, including those with learning disabilities, those students who have performed at grade level, and those who were gifted and exceptional all of which varied in their socio-economic backgrounds.

Both inductive and deductive approches allow for children to discover and be creative which is exciting and rewarding for the learner and the teacher as well. I strive to make the learning experiece a lifetime endeavor

First and foremost, I believe teaching is my calling. I have known that I wanted to be a teacher since the 4th grade, and my goals were achieved when I graduated with my MA in August. I believe every child can and will learn given the right time and conditions. There has to be more than a love for children, but also a love for education to be a great teacher, and I believe I have both components. I like hands-on and creative ways of teaching.It is my goal to incorporate instructional methods that enhances every students learning needs, while preparing them to reach his or her individual goals.
