I have taught with the Oklahoma Public School system for 25 years, so I'm very well trained to teach the five pillars of Reading: Phonics: Phonemic Awareness, Vocabulary, Fluency, Comprehension and Writing. If your child is struggling in passing the DIBELs-Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Learning, the BEAR-Basic Early Assessments of Reading or Literacy First Test requirements at their school. I can be a tremendous help to your child. I have been interventionist for a number of years and have had much success with my students in helping them to become competent in all areas which helps their competencies across the curriculum.

I LOVE teaching and believe that one-on-one work (and small group work) is highly effective. I strive to become my students' friend, while also maintaining a professional work environment. My strong background in working with children ages 3 and up that have come from different backgrounds and that have had unique needs has helped me to cater specifically to my students' individual needs. I have a total of 15 years experience speaking, reading and writing Spanish. I am very familiar with the different Spanish language variants. I lived in Chile for almost two consecutive years, and studied in Costa Rica for a short time. My B.A. is in Anthropology and Spanish, and my M.S. is in International Studies.

My passion is working with children of all ages. I believe all children can learn and it depends on how you approach their learning. If a child is not learning, I need to re-evaluate how I go about teaching. I am very patient and have an outgoing personality. I believe that you must teach to the whole child before true learning can happen. I have been a classroom teacher for 9 years. All 10 of my years out of school have been in the education field. My first year out of college I taught at an unaccredited private school, and then at an accredited day care center. The next 7 years were at a public school. One year I was recruiting for scholarships at the college level. I have always opened my door to students without expectations of payment for several years. I feel that it is my duty to make sure they understand their assignments.

I love teaching children of all ages. If children needed extra help we would stay and have small group tutorials after school two or three days a week. Children learn in many different ways. To find a child's interest and build on it can make all the difference in the world. Keeping children's attention and focused on what they are learning is the key to success! I am a firm believer that "All Children Can Learn". Children learn by listening and watching the teacher provide instruction, then actively doing hands-on projects. I am a patient, understanding and very positive person. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I love making a difference in my students'lives. I started off being an elementary aide/tutor in 1988 in public schools. I loved working with children so I decided to go back to college to become a teacher. I attended several colleges in different cities (where

I know that a teacher or a coach can have such a profound impact on a student. I know this because of the positive impact that these educators and motivators had on my life. I love to watch other people succeed and reach their goals and potential. I belive that so many kids have so much potential and they just need to believe in themselves and someone to believe in them. I believe that in order for students to succeed and reach their potential, they need education, motivation, and inspiration. I also believe that these things can be achieved in many different ways. I have had the great opportunity to have many great teachers and coaches in my life. These teachers and coaches have had a profound impact on my life and have inspired me to want to do the same for others. I have earned both my Bachelors and Masters degree in Health and Kinesiology.

In May I will receive my BS in Elementary Education with a TESL concentration. I have always enjoyed teaching as well as learning. Throughout my time at Oral Roberts University I was able to assist teachers as well as teach lessons in the classrooms each semester for 3 years. In about a week I will complete my final internship at ORU. I have had the opportunity to tutor neighborhood children in math, reading, writing, and spelling at the South Peoria Neighborhood House here in Tulsa. Along with tutoring here in Tulsa I have also tutored some kids in the neighborhood back in Texas. Elementary kids have always been my favorite to tutor because they really have a desire to learn and want to know more about the world they live in. At ORU I have had much experience writing essays as well as other persuasive work. When it comes down to my teaching style I believe that Vygotsky's Sociolinguisti
