Teaching in an inspiring and positive teaching style, I have special talent to explain and to clarify difficult concepts in a variety of ways that effectively "get the idea across" in a manner that makes learning easier and more fun. I believe that a structured environment with open communication is most effective and conducive to learning. I work with students to develop critical and independent problem-solving skills through praise and building confidence and self-esteem. Because all children do not learn the same way, I incorporate all three learning styles--auditory, visual and kinesthetic, or learning by doing-- into my teaching in order to meet individual needs and ability to learn. Earning my BA degree and Teaching Credential from SDSU, I also have units equivalent to a Master's in curriculum development and health information.

I hold Bachelor and Master of Arts degrees in English Literature from Kansas State University. In addition, I have two years of teaching experience at the collegiate level where I taught writing courses to freshmen and sophomores. I have also tutored many students in various Literature and writing courses throughout my two years as a graduate student. I advocate a hands-on teaching and learning environment. I think that hands-on learning is the only way to truly help students interact with a subject in order to absorb and comprehend it. If, as a teacher or tutor, I can help the student relate a subject to their lives or help them create a connection between what they are learning and what they enjoy, I have succeeded. Teaching is not about lecturing, it is about encouraging students to seek answers of their own accord through positive interaction with the subject material. Ultimately, th
