A Little Bit About Me...

Due to my background in early childhood, I teach using hands-on manipulative based strategies.
Before I began my professional teaching career, I worked for the Read Across America program helping young learners gain an appreciation for reading. I mentored elementary students who were labeled at risk due to low performance in reading. In 2001, I began teaching pre-k in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In 2005, I relocated to Houston and began teaching kindergarten in Ft. Bend ISD. I taught 4th grade Math and Science for 2 years. Currently, I work as a 2nd grade ESL inclusion teacher. I have experience teaching students identified under the special education umbrella- autistic, asperger's Syndrome, and various developmental delays. I have successfully tutored students with ADD, ADHD, and other conditions that make it difficult for them to be 100% successful with classroom instruction o ... read more

I'm looking forward to working with you to achieve goals!

I tend to talk casually with the student and try to understand goals before delving into the material. The relationship is important to me.
My experience is mainly with writing and reading comprehension, but I do have a Bachelor's in Economics. I was a tutor for Macro and Microeconomic principles for 1 year and was a Teacher's Assistant for an advanced Rhetoric and Composition class for 3 years.

Writing is one of my top subjects! Tutor Certification. Writer, columnist. Award winning tutor.

My style is age-appropriate: I modify my approach to accommodate age, learning level, personality and a combination of abilities and interests. My philosophy is that it is the instructor that should make adjustments on behalf of the student, not the other was around. Any good teacher can accommodate any student with the ability to understand people.
Experience includes teaching in public and private schools prior to and following tutor certification. Research for Tutor Certification focused on the study and analysis of adult learning problems stemming from poor learning and education experienced of youth. The study included exchanging past negative experiences for positive ones which substantially increases current abilities and progress. College Algebra students were in the study. While my credentials include college level learning, my experience is not exclusive to that level. ... read more

Let me Guide Your Child

Having taught for more than five years as a certified teacher, I feel that I have what it takes to be an educator. Understanding the psyche of the student is of prime significance to me, which helps me in directing the teaching strategies and techniques. In order to let the student realize the significance of learning, I try to design a curriculum that is application based.
I prefer that the student understands the purpose behind learning. In order to achieve my goal, I spend quality time in talking and developing an effective communication platform. I avoid doing rote learning. Therefore I make the worksheets and lesson plan as application based as I can. Some techniques and strategies are also employed on occasions.

Writing is one of my top subjects! Elementary and secondary

In my experience, successful students are the ones who embrace learning with a multitude of strategies to choose from. I have always been a visual learner and theatre arts performer, so I tend to gravitate toward strategies that have roots through visual learning and teamwork which allows the students to learn by creating and practicing with others. I have amassed a great deal of knowledge through continuing education and real-world teaching experience. It has allowed me to perfect the way I deliver instruction to students by utilizing a variety of teaching strategies, tailoring my approaches to deliver the best outcome for my students. My students journal, create thinking maps, and use improve and role play in a variety of situations. Most importantly, I encourage dialogue among students and teacher allowing students to teach and learn from each other. The later allows the stude ... read more
