I firmly believe that every child deserves to receive the best education out there. I aspire to share my passion and ambition to learn with my students. Anyone can be a teacher but it takes a person who is nurturing, caring, and devoted to be a good one. Sharing my own experiences with my students will show them we all have hit the bump in the road but we can overcome them. The field of education has provided me with the opportunity to live out my own life-long dream of being a teacher. I am an alumna of Conestoga High School, Berwyn Pa and currently a Junior at the University of Mississippi. I will be graduating in 2013 with a degree in Special Education and a minor in English.

I have been teaching students with many different special needs for the past 19 years. My experience ranges from students with severe developmental delays to students with emotional disabilities. My experience has mostly been with students who have learning disabilities. I also have son that has an IEP for learning disabilities and is thriving now in school. I have worked with students ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade. My teaching style is student centered. I try to figure out what work best for each student and go from there. If a student has a learning stye that is very hands on then I will try to make sure a portion of my lesson is tactile. It is not always easy but I strive to differentiate to meet all of my students' learning needs..

I am a flexible tutor and am able to switch up my teaching styles based on the strengths, preferences, interests and needs (what I like to call their SPINs). I try to meet each individual student's needs using a variety of teaching strategies and techniques based on their learning style(s). I have been tutoring individually for over 8 years for multiple families and children. I have been in child care as a nanny for the past 3 years. Before becoming a nanny I worked as a preschool teacher for about 2 years. My knowledge gained through my experiences in teaching and child care have given me useful tools to help meet the needs of my students and help them to be successful in school and in life.

I believe that all children deserve a positive, nurturing environment that is conducive to learning. Children need to have a place where they feel special, safe and accepted. The classroom should be this place, but many times falls short. I am confident you will find that my unwavering commitment to education, excellent organizational and interpersonal skills, solid instructional methods, and hands-on experience will be a positive asset to your child. I posses 15 years of experience in education and have taught grades Pre-K through 5. I also have two years as a special education teacher.

I take a hands on material approach to learning/teaching. I feel that young students learn best when they can physically learn, such as through blocks/puzzles/interactive learning devices and other similar approaches. I try to let the student use their hands as much as I can to aid in their learning process. For older students such as my high school students or their college counterparts I use more direct audial teaching and visual teaching styles. Every person learns differently, so I cater my teaching style to each individual learner. I started tutoring in my teens helping young children with Autism Spectrum Disorders develop English and Math skills as well as speech therapy and public speaking. I tutored my fellow students while attending Carroll Community College in English 101 and 102 as well as Creative Writing. I then moved on to being a one on one with high school students with s

Education is a large part of who I am. I have earned two Bachelor degrees, BS in Human Development and Family Studies as well as a BA in Sociology. I initially worked in the field of social work upon graduation which gave me great insight into family life, sociological influences, and the impact of socio-economic factors on education. I feel I am better prepared to deal with the differences and challenges of special education students due to these experiences. During the last four years I have worked as a paraprofessional in special education, tutoring students in subject areas, electives, and as a Job Coach in the community. My love for learning drives me to do all that I can to make learning fun and motivating for others. I employ Gardner's eight multiple intelligences into my teaching so that material is presented in various ways. This allows students with different learning sty

Children as well as well as young adults learn fairly different. I attempt to learn the person i am working with and find their strength as well as weakness. I also give my clients various methods on how to study, memorize and get over exam anxiety as i had to learn what worked for me. So my teaching is contingent upon the individual i am working with. I have a bachelor degree in biology from a private institution in New York Long Island University.I First began to teach with my father who is a GED instructor for the haitian community and i was a English instructor for his program. I went on to become a biology teacher for a urban school in philadelphia. I enjoy working with students and helping them to increase their ability in the area in which they struggle. I am engaged in various activities with our youth in my church and within the community. I hope to use my influential skills to
