Hello my name is Felicia Reed and I just relocated to Charlotte, NC two weeks ago. Back home I was a a full time Sign Language Interpreter for 7 years. My experience with interpreting is from elementary age children all the way to college level students. About two years agai I started my own business called PaigeSigns2u. PaigeSigns2u is still in the beginning stages. Last year was my first year actually opening PaigeSigns2u and I used the church where I attended. I taught sign language to those who wanted to learn in 15 weeks. They had to order the book from Amazon themselves or I would order it and they paid me. In taking my classes I not only taught Americans sign Language but weekly I gave my students a fun fact about ASL. I educated them on the background and there was a lot of interaction involved. I also invited a Deaf friend of mine to come in and challenge my students. My course

I have been I interpreting , tutoring & been involved with the Deaf for over 12 years. I have worked in the school systems & as a freelance interpreter in a variety of different settings. My love for languages is natural because being born & raised in Kenya , I grew up speaking more than 2 languages & was exposed to over 20 different cultures & dialects. Working with people is my strength & being able to bridge the gap through communication is what I was born to do. I am a creative, patient instructor & I understand that we all have different learning styles. My job is to get to know each persons style & accommodate them as we move along.

And I wanted to change the way people looked at his situation, he not disabled I look at him the way I look at the Hispanics that come here and are not understood, now there are more interpreters for them I want to do the same for our deaf community.

As the youngest of three children, I always wanted a younger sibling and became the busiest baby-sitter in my town throughout middle and high school. I truly enjoy working with children and young adults and have exceptional patience and empathy for young people. I am very free spirited and enjoy having fun while showing students the amazing world of learning. Each child is different and I believe you must first build trust with the student and establish a relationship while studying their working habits and learning style. Although new to tutoring, I have worked with children extensively and participated in peer tutoring throughout middle school and high school. I have an excellent rapport with children and young adults and my knowledge is not limited to the area of foods and nutrition. I have excellent creative writing skills as well as a very strong knowledge of language, arts and

My philosphy of education is that children learn through real-world experiences and tapping into their interests will foster their educational development. Another key factor in helping students achieve academic success is assessment and observation of individual learning styles and multiple intelligences. Honing those positive features in students will inspire and motivate their learning to new levels. I believe strongly in problem-solving and hands-on learning to promote higher level thinking skills. I feel children have just as much to teach as they do learn, and that cooperative learning will benefit them not only academically by teaching themselves and their peers, but also socially to promote and build self-esteem. I have a BS in Elementary Education and a MAEd in Curriculum & Technology. I am a K-6 certified teacher in North Carolina, and I have taught second, third, and sixth gra

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 previously learned. 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 regardles

I am dedicated to enthusiastic and dynamic teaching as a means of creating and nurturing a lifelong love of learning for students of all ages. I will use a wide variety of teaching aids and implementation strategies to engage and enlighten students in active learning. It is important to encourage youth and adults to express their talents in a moralistic and life-changing manner. As an honors graduate from the University of South Florida, I grew up with a strong foundation in education. I spent my senior year of high school (when most people are occupied by senior year activities and proms) in college doing the Early Admissions Program. I graduated early from both high school and college with honors. During my college career, I held three internships - two of which were in education and the arts.

Coming from a family of teachers, I have been involved in the educational field all of my life. I began my educational career by working in morning and after school programs.

Once I completed my master's degree I taught Spanish for students in grades 5-12 in the inner city of Buffalo and the suburb of West Seneca, NY. After 2 years of teaching in NY I moved to Charlotte, NC where I have been teaching ESL (grades K-5). In my education career, I have taught and/or tutored every grade level from 2 year olds to adults. I have a natural approach teaching style to second language learning.

I recently relocated to the Huntersville area. I recently graduated from UNCW with a degreee in Psychology with a focus on children. Since middle school, working with children has been my passion. I realized my dream after some of my cousins came over to America from the war torn country of Liberia and were having a very hard time adjusting. I was accepted to UNC Chapel Hill's Master's Program for Rehabilitation but declined after fearing it would take me down the path of working with the elderly instead of working with children. I have very extensive experience working with children at camps, researching at UNCW, tutoring foster children, and special needs with Lindley Habilitation services in Wilmington (mainly working with a client having Hunter's syndrome who was learning sign language, etc). I am both CPR and first aid certified. I have used all my knowledge of math (especially st
