Social Studies Tutor

I am currently a graduate student at George Mason University completing a degree in Secondary Education. I have 18+ years experience in the Air Force and have homeschooled two of my children using a classical curriculum. I believe each student has a unique learning style and I strive to help students understand how they best learn to achieve their best results. My goal is not only for students to learn the content, but enjoy learning and to gain confidence in their own ability to master content.

Specializing in Out-of-the-Box Thinking for All Learners

I love to incorporate art and sensory experiences into everything I do to really activate the brain. The "Drill and Kill" is very rarely appropriate, so I tailor every approach individually. What works for one student may not work with another. My formal training includes many intervention types and experience with multiple programs and curricula, so I have a large pool from which to draw...then we get creative! My style REALLY aims for those over-arching foundational skills like critical thinking, thought organization, and problem solving. I will also track and provide data to monitor progress and hold myself accountable for effectiveness.
Let's start out by saying I am definitely not your average tutor! Fun is vital to motivation, and I live on the stuff! I have been teaching for over fifteen years in a variety of environments, working in inclusive environments with children ... read more

Since I have entered the teaching profession I have worked with children of all elementary levels. This experience has provided me with the tools to work with all types of children from grades K-5. Since I have graduated from IUP I have worked primarily in an urban setting which has afforded me the opportunity to work with children of various backgrounds from affluent to homeless. I have done various forms of tutoring in Reading and Math in preparation for the state administered tests.
My ability to break things down to a level where students can understand more thoroughly has always been a string point for me. This coupled with my ability to develop a strong rapport with students has produced a positive result. I have large amounts of energy and enthusiasm that children gravitate to. On the recent term assessment for Charlottesville City Schools my children scored an 86% ave ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a German native I'm just here for 6 years, but return to Germany every year to teach German as a Foreign Language in summer classes at a private language school. I mostly teach teenagers and young adults in group or one-on-one settings. Before settling on German as a Foreign Language I finished a Master in Geography at the University of Bonn, Germany. I tutored also whole families before being sent to Germany because of the profession of one of the family members.
With two daughters (15 and 11) and experience teaching teenagers from as young as 9 years on I have the patience and experience to teach all children. In my experience all students can learn foreign languages given appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. As a current student at George Washington in secondary education I will provide a constructivist approach to learning and keep up motivation to reach an ... read more
