Hearing Impaired Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Waxhaw, NC

My teaching style is very hands on. I try to make skills applicable to student's lives, which helps them internalize the information. I am also very organized--I expect my students to maintain a help notebook to assist with the various steps to problems. I like to push my students to excel and really understand the math, not just "do" the math. As a person with an inquiring mind, I have spend many years learning how students learn. I taught math at the high school level for five years in Florida, as well as one year in North Carolina. In addition, I have taught students with severe disabilites, and students in all subjects at the elementary level. Always interesting in continuing to learn, I have attended numerous workshops on how students learn. In addition, I was a contributing author to the Algebra Project with the University of Central Florida from 2000-2003. At this point in

I am an honors graduate with a degree in Special Education and dual certification in Elementary Education. I am currently working toward a masters degree in learning and technology. My teaching experience prior to entering public education included teaching in an international school (Qingdao, China)and teaching in private schools in the United States. I am experienced with helping students to reach their academic and personal goals regardless of any challenges. Because every child learns in a unique variety of ways, I incorporate a wide range of learning methods into each lesson. Tuning each component of a carefully crafted lesson to the needs of each individual student - is a juggling act that is challenging and rewarding to me. Intuitively supporting learning’s synergistic nature, I enjoy the daily balance of presenting new principles, while skillfully solidifying what has been

I believe that each child learns in a different way, and as a teacher it is my challenge and duty to teach in such a way, to approach the problem from enough different angles, that each student would understand the concept at hand. I love that challenge. I am easy going, patient, and I relate well to children. I look forward to learning with and from each student I encounter. In 2002 I graduated with a degree in biotechnology. During the last semester of school, I was a substitute teacher, where I learned a lot about children and different teaching styles. After graduation, I pursued a career as a chemist, but I always maintained a second part-time job teaching, in some fashion. Usually, that teaching involved a pool. I have been a swimming lesson instructor for 10 years and have been a YMCA swim coach for 3 seasons, coaching over 200 children per year. In these opportunities, I
