I began teaching 22 years ago at a middle school and later taught high school when I relocated to the beach. I also tutored at a local community college. The most rewarding aspect of teaching and tutoring is when the lightbulb goes off at the crucial point of understanding in the student's mind. I have a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Masters Degree in Human Resource Management and School Leadership. Furthermore, I have 67 additional education credits pertaining to teaching, tutoring, communication and human resources. I feel it's important to stay abreast of current educational trends, research and developments which ultimately affect the teaching style and learning effectiveness of the individuals involved.
Each student is unique. Therefore, I use a variety of teaching styles, strategies, methods and techniques depending on the individual's needs and abilities. A ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught, tutored and administered educational programs for over 15 years. These experiences included teaching 1st and 4th grade, tutoring grades 1-8, writing assistance for high school and university students, teaching ESL to youth and adult, GED prep for youth and adults, and managing two adult education programs. I have also earned certification in special learning needs.
I teach to the needs and style of the child. I understand that each child has a specific style of learning. I vary my teaching with visual, auditory, and multi-sensory aids. All of my teaching includes a great deal of patience and humor! I have had great success in each child I have tutored, whether this has involved understanding, grades, or self-esteem.

Because each student has a unique personality and way he learns, I believe in making lesson plans that will draw in the different types of learners: hands on, experience, visual, and aural. When I teach individual students, I can find out what that student needs in order to learn the best, and I teach to her strengths and work through her weaknesses. All students deserve to understand what is going on in the classroom and I firmly believe in individual help. My approach also includes student interaction in which the students have a voice and opinion on class experiences. I believe that this approach helps students think outside the box and teaches them to have an opinion and to think critically.
I am a recent graduate of the University of North Texas with a degree in Music Education. While at North Texas, I taught middle and high school-aged students the art of music. During the su ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I graduated from Purdue University in the Spring of 2009. Obtaining my Bachelor of Arts in Secondary English Education, I also received Academic Honors during the Fall of 2007, Spring 2008, Fall 2008, and Spring 2009. Recently, I taught Language Arts for 7th graders as well as READ 180, a remedial reading program designed to improve reading levels, at McCulloch Middle School in Marion, Indiana. After one semester at the middle school, I was transferred to Marion High School, instructing English 11, English 9, and Theater Arts. I was responsible for generating original lesson plans, designing innovative activities, and organizing classroom management. As a part-time job, I tutored ISTEP testing remediation for 7th grade students.
I have a firm belief in our country's educational system. I tend to view learning as a lifelong process; there is so much we can achieve, even on a daily b ... read more
