I have worked in the field of School Psychology for public schools in the state of Virginia. Most of my experience has been in rural areas where many different types of needs had to be handled by the Psychologist. Thus, I have had broad experience and training in the area of Special Education. I also worked in private practice and with other professionals which further broadened my skills. I retired in 2009 and moved to Tennessee to care for a family member. I miss contact with students, and feel I can help children who are struggling with school. I also feel that I can be of assistance to students identified as having special needs. I very much look forward to becoming involved with students of all types again!

My professional writing experience has has sharpened my ability to communicate and explain information in a variety of ways - a skill that comes in especially handy with students who need a fresh approach to tackling their struggles. I often hear students say, "Now I see - that makes perfect sense!" My professional writing experience includes three syndicated columns. With each new student, I start with getting to know the student as a person - not just for learning style purposes, but also for the student to understand that I am here for him/her. This helps avoid intimidation too, as a straight jump to students' academic challenges can sometimes get your sessions started on the wrong foot. I have tutored K – college-aged students in various subjects. Most recently, I served as a math teacher under the federal Supplemental Education services program. / At Mind Matters Learning Ctr I wo

During my years as an undergraduate English major, I was drawn to the world of teaching and tutoring through two part-time positions, including one on-campus, with college-aged students, and one with elementary to high school-aged students. I loved seeing my students' pleasure at learning how to comprehend the words they read, to assimilate that information into an in-depth college essay, to finally grasp that one bit of knowledge that so alluded them. I taught students with learning and behavioral disabilities, and was good at my job (and loved it). During the last seven years, I have tutored students in writing, English literature, reading, reading comprehension, psychology, the arts, anthropology, and study skills. I have taught all subject areas to middle school students, grades 6-8, and taught English literature and writing to 9th and 11th graders. I am a born teacher, and come

Due to my experience with a broad range of young learners, each working at a different academic and or cognitive pace, I follow a modified Socratic approach to both my classroom and one on one instruction by placing the emphasis on the student as we identify areas for growth. I then sculpt an academic program that we both/all have helped to design, thus accessing an invaluable font of enthusiasm and insight addressing how best to approach the needs of each individual student. This is especially true for those students who don't feel heard, suffer from academic performance anxiety or are struggling with the manner in which the material has previously been presented to them. Over the course of the past 10 years I have spent time working with students struggling to develop their academic skills, particularly in the areas of language arts and the social studies.

My Master’s degree is in special education with a concentration in emotional and behavioral disturbance. I have worked with students who have many different types of disabilities including behavior disorders. Working with students who have behavior disorders taught me that every student needs respect, care and patience. Every teacher needs to believe that every student can learn, including the ones that may exhibit extreme behaviors. Teaching means not only individualizing instruction so that each child can learn; but, also providing the love, respect and care that each child needs to be able to learn as well. The past five years has provided me with an amazing amount of knowledge and experience.

As a special education teacher, I believe learning should be fun and exciting. I teach students based upon their individual needs and learning styles. I love learning and I try my best to pass that love of learning to my children and my students. Using centers in the class room, is a great way to make learning fun. Centers allow students to be actively engaged by presenting the subject material using a hands-on approach while allowing them to move about the room. Giving praise and encouragement to students is also very important in the learning process. Everyone works better when they are encouraged and loved. After receiving my bachelor's degree in Psychology, I started teaching special education while pursuing my Master's degree. I completed my Master's program in 2005 and received my certification in special education in the state of Tennessee. In 2009, I also received my certificatio
