I love children and have always been involved in the field of education since my graduation from Fairleigh Dickinson University. While raising my family, I have always been an active participant in school related activities both as a parent and on a professional level. My first teaching experience was in a theraputic classroom setting. this position helped me to develop a keen sensitivity to detect those children that might require a bit more individalized attention. An overall goal of mine is to further develop and increase each students potential. It is my belief that it is essential to provide a systematic and thorough procedure for teaching specific skills in each discipline. This process should be executed according to the needs of the student and their level of functioning. As the facilitor, I design tasks to promote creativity by providing stimulating hands on manipulatives. I inc

I have extensive experience teaching this and know how difficult reading comprehension can be, especially in an era where this skill is being increasingly overlooked in public and private education. I never take reading comprehension for granted when teaching students how to improve their skills and abilities in any subject area. Critical thinking is nourished so well-considered and studied opinions are more than welcome; they are essential. Students have conveyed to me that my style is one of "relaxed intensity" with a flair for the dramatic laced with a sense of humor and a genuine appreciation and respect for the views of others. Focused creativity is required. I am a career educator who has taught English and other Humanities based courses extensively since 1988.

I like to use hands on and/or creative teaching methods when possible. I believe that practice and persistence makes perfect. I would say that my teaching style is "outside of the box". I use this effective method when possible, due to the fact that typically students have tried more standardized methods and have not been able to learn from them; therefore they seek tutoring. I have assisted students with tutoring for most of my life. My mother has worked as a teacher since I was born. I have a broad spectrum in technical and creative skills when working with students. I worked as the Geology Tutor at UNC Asheville. I have worked as a tutor for K-5 students at Hall Fletcher Elementary School (also in Asheville, NC). I have also volunteered throughout my life, helping and tutoring students of all ages throughout my educational and professional career.
