Experience Summary
I graduated from the University of North Fl,Cum Laude. I am certified to teach K-5. I am qualified beyond that level because I supplemented my income in college by researching, outlining and writing papers for other students. I also worked part-time as a tutor at the college level. I have a 20 year old son who is mentally challenged. I have become educated through research and his medical care about the needs of Special Education students. I have spent countless volunteer hours over the years working with these students in public and private schools. I also spent 3-4 years teaching adults computer programs. As a result, I am proficient at an intermediate/advanced level in Microsoft Word, Excel, WordPerfect, Lotus and Quickbooks Pro.
Teaching Style
I love teaching people of all ages. I believe any person is capable of learning if their education is made specific to their needs. Some people are auditory learners, some are visual learners and some are tactil learners. I believe learning should be entertaining and interesting, as well as informative.I am inventive, patient, enthusiastic and cooperative. I get along well with children, as well as with adults of all ages, races and socio-economic groups. I am an avid reader and would use my reading, writing and verbal skills to help any person overcome an educational obstacle.
