I have taken several courses on the different styles of learning. I try to find out what style works best for my students and work from there. I know several ways to solve Chemistry problems and I try different ones if the first method does not work. I have learned to use many analogies when teaching Biology. I find that students remember more when they are able to compare a concept to something they are alreaday familiar with. I attended Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan, one of the top 2 school in teaching in Michigan. In college, I tutored Biology and Chemistry. Most of my Chemistry students still thank me today for getting them through the course and into the nursing program. I graduated with a BS in secondary education,Biology with a minor in Chemistry.

I believe that children must be engaged in the subject matter before successful learning takes place. Finding fun, interesting, and personal ways for the child to connect to the topic will truly allow them a chance to learn and retain information. I love finding different ways for individual learners to understand what they are being taught. I am a senior in the Education program at Appalachian State University. As an Elementary Education major, I have worked closely with children from many age levels. I have participated in an after-school tutor/mentor program at Appalachian State in 2008. In 2009, I completed two internships while in the Education Program. One working with 2nd grade students and the other with 5th grade students.

I enjoy working with children & adults alike. I firmly believe there is nothing a student can not master, as long as the teacher/tutor is willing to adapt to how that student learns. I am a life-long student & have mastered how to convey information differently to ensure everyone understands. I am patient, personable & encouraging; ensuring that each student not only reaches their academic potential, but gains self-confidence in their academic abilities. I possess what I like to call the NASA mentality, "Failure is NOT an option, we WILL find a way to make all the pieces come together for every student in every subject." Learning is a journey & I believe it is a privilege to be the one to open that gift for others. As an advocate of learning, I continually pursue education. I believe you must remain current in your subjects of expertise. I hold a Masters in Business Administration, a B
