I have three basic ideas that guide me in the classroom. 1) I feel I have a personal obligation be intellectually engaging and informative. I understand my responsibility to provide students with information and ideas such as critical thinking and writing. 2) I encourage a stimulating, safe learning environment to ensure that students are eager and comfortable about their participation. I treat students respectfully, and ask that they treat their peers with the same level of respect. I encourage a forum for ideas and always solicit participation in the classroom. 3) I help students understand how education prepares them for the future. I constantly stress the relevance of the subject matter, by using real world examples.

I have my BS in Psychology and BA in Art. In May 2003, I received my Masters of Education (M.Ed.) from the University of Maryland in College Park. My work towards this degree provided me with an extensive understanding of scientifically based research, lesson plan development, and teacher training skills. I have worked as an educational researcher on three large-scale government grants studying students’ language and literacy development, and reading motivation, in preschool through college. I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated teacher. I want students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. I have focused on instilling in my students a love of learning. I believe it takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a student. Therefore, I have learned the value of

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined. I have over twenty years teaching in the public and private schools in New Jersey. I have taught English, Math, Social Studies, and Business. I am a NJ state certified teacher in

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, assertive, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible for each child. I am a firm believer in teaching at a slow yet steady pace and in providing a visual approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential. A few good educators have made in difference in my educational background and I look to do the same. As a Richard Stockton College of NJ graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelors degree, BA in Business Management, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of mathematics. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last eight

Because I have a passion for learning, I love to share my own knowledge with others. Because of my own children, I understand that every person has their own style of learning and I love to discover that avenue for people to help them to grasp whatever it is they are trying to understand. As a graduate of Wellesley College, I continaully strived to do achieve a high level of excellence. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I didn't get a teaching certification while I was in college. It is a profession which I would truly love. As the mother of two children, one of schoolage, I realize now that it would have been a great life choice for me. I have helped many people with their skills along the way, and I would love to do it in a tutoring format now.

As a H.S. student, I was a volunteer tutor with A Better Chance program and I continued to tutor and mentor students throughout my college and professional career. I tutored students in math and english/reading. My greatest sources of satisfaction have been spending 3 summers on loan to Purdue University to teach in their Minority Science program for H.S. School students. Additionally, I feel fortunate to have been a H.S. Soccer coach for 12 years and a youth soccer club coach for 25+ years. I have a B.S. in Computer Science and an MBA. Both degrees placed a heavy emphasis on mathematics, a subject I have been comfortable with my entire life. Also, my 30 year professional career allowed me to hone my oral and verbal communication skills. I love working with and teaching children and I recognize that every child is different and each has his/her own capacity for learning. Being able to wo

As a teacher I believe that students learn best by doing, so I plan my lessons to engage students with meaningful activities that are mastered with hands on activity rather than teacher lead discussion. I have worked in a wide range of business and educational settings and have worked with students from grade school to adult. When I earned my BS in English, with a thirty credit business minor, I already had fifteen years experience working in a family run retail store. I have since worked a range of jobs including teaching business, computer and English classes. I also worked as a computer systems installer, service manager and office manager.

As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches. Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way!
