I enjoy teaching children from elementary level up through college, especially in writing skills. My real-world experience as a public relations professional is appealing to my students, and I incorporate real-world examples and issues in my lessons. I love to see students realize their potential, and I am adept at assessing their abilities in order to give them the tools they need to succeed. I want to see children enjoy what they are learning, even if the subject is difficult for them. I think it is easier and more fun to "learn by doing"; I do not lecture students, but rather engage them in a way that keeps their attention. I am a patient and understanding teacher and feel confident I can help your child succeed. As an English major at a liberal arts college, I honed my skills as a writer early on. I have been a public relations professional for over 20 years, specializing in writing

A significant portion of my professional career has included working with youth in classroom settings, community-based programs, and juvenile detention centers. In addition, I traveled extensively throughout Florida as an Education and Training Coordinator for Service Learning projects. This exposed me to the unique challenges that teachers, school administrators, parents, and students face on a daily basis. As a researcher for gang programs, I developed great empathy for youth desiring to leave gang-related violence and pursue educational goals to improve their lives. During the past three years I have worked with students in small group settings and one-on-one. Specific areas of study have included English, writing, and assisting students with developing critical thinking skills. Last year I taught a six week summer course in English; the target audience was children of migrant

While earning my degree in English, I developed teaching and communication skills through both curricular and extra-curricular experiences. As an intended Secondary Education minor, I took many classes in education, including a middle and high school practicum. I also tutored students in grammar and composition, as well as foreign students in conversational English. I strongly considered teaching as a profession after graduation, but I wanted to earn my law degree first. While studying for the LSAT, I took an online course, mastering test-taking skills in all three parts: logic “games,” analytical reasoning, and reading comprehension. Graduating summa cum laude from the University of Florida, with extensive work in research, analysis, and writing, these skills came easy to me. Currently, I am a teaching assistant for Legal Writing and Research and thoroughly enjoy helping 1L’s also

I value shared goals for each session and encourage open conversation to cultivate ideas. Typically asked to assist on all levels of essay-writing, I start with the question and expectations. As an editor, I am extremely thorough. I make sure the student understands any edits that I mark are an attempt to help that student best learn. I walk through all edits with the student. I also take an approach of learning WITH the student and will not to lecture AT the student. Instead, I read with the student and ask questions. I am NEVER afraid to admit a lack of knowledge, and will work with the student to find the best possible solution to every problem. I never want my students to feel alone or abandoned in the learning process. A recent graduate with a double major in English and French, I have both academic and professional experience.

As stated earlier, All children can learn. I believe that all children have different learning abilities and it takes a positive ad patient teacher to notice and react. I am very patient, caring, and supportive. If a child is struggling to master certain objective, then it is my responsibility to provide all avenues to ensure success. There is no "u" in team.

I greatly enjoy working with my patients and teaching them about their diagnosis. Watching them learn and listening to their challenging questions inspires me to continue my own education as an adult. I strongly believe that each child has his/her own learning style and it is your job as a teacher/tutor to tap into that style to reach that student. I focus on children's abilities and what they can accomplish with a little encouragement or guidance. My goal is to teach the student while challenging and stimulating their mind. I have earned a BS in Human Development and spent time in college volunteering 4 semesters at the Children's Hospital in Austin and at Sims Elementary. At Sims Elementary I worked on reading and writing with first and second graders who are bilingual. I currently work at Children's Medical Center Dallas where I serve as a child life specialist.

My mother is a reading development teacher. She works with Title 1 children every day in her job. Before coming to college, I volunteered over 100 hours working with a Title 1 child on her reading, writing, and math skills. She was in the third grade for the second time that year, and by no means can I take credit for the fact that she went on to pass that year, but I do believe I helped her by understanding her difficulties, working with her as someone who was interested in seeing her succeed. I am a very patient person, and most of all, I consider myself empathetic. I believe that teaching is achieved through understanding each child's specific needs and emotions, and working through the difficulties with firm, but kind leadership. I earned my bachelor degree in Communications and Creative Writing (double major), which has attributed to my excellent verbal communication skills as well
