I'd love to help you succeed.

I am a 2011 graduate of the United States Naval Academy with a Bachelors of Science in Political Science. During my education, I was exposed to many subjects, ranging from Electrical Engineering to European Literature. The most important things I learned during my time there were time management and study skills, because without a strong foundation in those subjects, one can not excel in others.
I am a very patient person, and I like to help. It may take a session or two, but I'm confident that I can adapt my teaching style to meet your needs.

I remember the first time I helped a fellow classmate understand a concept in Spanish class. I love learning and love helping others expand their knowledge. I use creative methods, and am incredibly patient and easy going. I hope to be able to show my students that learning is fun.
I worked for 2 years as a High School Spanish teacher, as well as tutoring throughout college for the Foreign Language Department. I love teaching, and would be excited to help students with Spanish, History, Geometry, or Writing and Research Skills.

I earned my BA in Elementary Education from the University of Iowa in 2004.I have a total of seven years working in the classroom. I spent my first year out of college substituting and covering a maternity leave. The next two years were spent in a 4th grade classroom in Illinois. I then moved to Florida and began teaching 3rd grade. When I moved to Virginia last fall, I spent the year substituting in grades 1-6. I have taught all basic subjects. I have also taught many inclusion classes and have worked with students of all abilities and many with specific learning disabilities.
I believe in teaching the individual. Every student learns differently, therefore I have always presented the material in as many ways as possible. If you asked any of my former students what my favorite phrase was, they would say "you do what works best for you!" I have a passion for educating, I am flexib ... read more

As a NOAA Corps Officer, I helped teach new personnel many facets of our day-to-day operations, from instructing new officers on getting their Officer of the Deck qualifications to preparing new survey techs for their hydrographer-in-charge qualification, and new deck hands assigned to my watch how to drive the ship and steer accurate survey lines. At Embry-Riddle, I often tutored friends and classmates, since I had a more advanced background than most of my peers.
My teaching style is tailored to the individual. The first thing I do when I'm trying to teach someone something is determine their learning style. If they don't know it I help them figure it out. I do find that most people learn best by diving in and doing it themselves first, while I serve as a "safety net". Whenever I was teaching new helmsmen or junior officers how to steer survey lines, I would direct them how to do ... read more

Visual explanation and simple repetition are the most successful tools to help a child learn. I am patient and calm with students but not afraid of discipline. Before college I was a summer camp counselor for three years and part-time babysitter; jobs that taught me how to work with children. I hope to improve a child's life through improving education.
In the past year I have graduated with a double major and passed the Society of Actuaries' Probability exam. My experience in finding effective study techniques and quickly understanding new material allows me to explain subjects to others as directly as possible. I am determined to make the most of each hour of every day.

Teaching is a joy to me and privilege I am grateful to have. I am a creative, patient, and caring person and I love to incorporate games and fun into learning while maintaining the seriousness of the subject. I seek to know each student’s personality in order that we may build a trusting environment where they feel safe to try their best. Each student has a different learning style and I tailor everything to fit the unique needs of each student. As a guide to their learning I believe in the constructivist approach where students do not just learn how to do something but understand why it works. With time and encouragement everyone can reach their educational goals and gain confidence. It is my honor to be a part of the success.
While studying in college to become an elementary teacher I sought out many opportunities to practice my new skills and found them in all levels of academi ... read more

I love watching learners understand and succeed. As an instructor, I look at each student as an individual whose learning style is unique to them, and then I adapt my instruction to best fit their style. I love getting up and moving, playing games, and using creativity to bring understanding of a concept. If teachers will truly get to know their students and show them how to learn the best way that fits them, the possibilities are endless.
Upon graduating with a BS in education, I went on to teach at the middle school level. I was a special education teacher, inclusion teacher, remedial math and history teacher. During the summers I also taught and tutored children who had autism and other special needs. After three years of teaching, I went on to teach adult basic education and GED classes, also while tutoring middle school algebra students. I have extensive training on tea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I absoultely love teaching children, and I have alot of patience. Every person has their own way of learning, and I strive my hardest to figure out what way that is in each of my students. I am a very visual and hands on learner, but I have the ability to adapt my teaching method. I think it is extremely important to be very possitive and celebrate even the smallest acheivements. Every student can reach their potential if the appropriate approach to teaching is in place.
I am a very patient person. I tutored special needs students in the summer in a variety of subjects. I also taught piano lessons to several students of my own while attending school. While I was in college I was the chemistry lab assistant and lab tutor. I set-up and conducted the labs the teacher had planned, and I helped the students with their homework.
