I am hard of hearing and I have used American Sign Language my whole life. ASL is my second language, used when I attended school and when I hung out with friends. I went to a school that offered ASL as a class and I took three years of ASL, skipping the first year. I was in the American Sign Language honor society and I graduated with the Laurent Clerc medallion. I signed the National anthem at school football games, and at my own graduation with a couple of other students as well. While in the honor society, I was required to go to an event and sign there, I signed a couple of shows at the Florida Aquarium. I am a very hands on type of teacher/tutor, I will have a white board and marker with me at all meetings. I am avid about 'Voice-off' since it's the best way to learn ASL. I like to do games as well since ASL is very expressive and the best way to learn it is to do it. I don't like

I have taken 2 semesters of ASL at the college level and frequently interact with the local Deaf community in Lakeland, FL. I have tutored 1 student privately in Spanish for 2 years, and she went from failing her class to passing both the AP and IB exams with a 5 and a 6, respectively. I have also tutored small groups in Spanish for one semester ranging from high school introductory level to AP level. I have also tutored for one semester of ASL at the college level, and one semester of Japanese at the high school introductory level. I aim for all tutoring to be done in the target language, but I recognize that this is unhelpful for many students. Nevertheless, I will start out only using the target language, but will switch to the students' preferred language upon request.

I have taught school for fourteen plus years. I have taught everything from TMH/PMH, reading recovery, kindergarten, third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade, sixth grade...with a wide range of abilities. One of my strengths has been to really "know" where my students are at so I can differeniate and teach them accordingly. I have tutored privately for the last four years with great success. I am known for my enthusiasm and motivation. I am good at listening to my students and taking their interests and turn learning into a fun event! I understand where they are at and know where they need to get to (state standards). I encourage them by focusing on their strengths and making an "I CAN" folder...here are the items we will be focusing on so they can learn and progress. I am great at making connections and make learning real, fun and relevant to them. There has to be buy in! :-)

I graduated from Bowling Green State University with a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education and certified K-8. After 3 years of teaching I went out to earn a Masters degree in Reading from Baldwin Wallace College. I taught for 8 years in a first grade classroom. During that time, my classroom was filled with a variety of children with a variety of learning styles. I was lucky enough to have hosted the inclusion classroom and the gifted children throughout my years of teaching which enabled me to adapt my lessons in a multitude of ways so each child had the ability to learn. I enjoy working with children and watching them achieve their goals. I help children achieve their goals, by teaching to their learning style whether it is tactile, visual, auditory, and physical or a combination. It is important to first understand the child’s needs and abilities and then create a lesson pla

I love working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am determined to assist your child in obtaining academic success in any way possible. I am understanding, outgoing and kind. I want all children to succeed and I am willing to find any way possible to help them do such a thing. As a recent graduate, I was very driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I am a strong promoter of education advocacy and I truly feel "no child should be left behind". I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-Med with a minor in chemistry which has enabled me to gain a vast understanding of various types of science.

As a former Special Education Teacher I incorporate into my lessons applications in many different learning styles. I believe that many of today's students learn by offering a "hands on" approach. I really enjoy lessons that the students feel empowered as they discovered how to solve problems rather then being shown how to do some task. That said, I also believe there is no replacement for a good work ethic and I know many times with Math problems students need a good "coach" to help with motivation. I consider myself a "life-long learner" and I am open to new techniques and experiences that will help me help struggling students achieve academic success I began my Education later in life so I can appreciate students who struggle in adolesence as I did as well. My first hurdle acomplished was to earn a A.S. in Human services and then I worked as a Substance Abuse Counselor for the next
