I have learned throughout my wide range of teaching experience that the most effective way for children and adults to learn is for the teacher to use the learning style of the student in planning instruction, and if the curriculum is set the teacher should have the ability to adapt the lesson appropriately. I have the skills to do both as a result of my training and experience. The reason I became an educator is because I have always had the desire to help others achieve their goals no matter what they might be! I work well with all ages in academic subjects AND early childhood development (Nanny 911/ birth to 5 year olds - behavioral, social/emotional, and cognitive).

While in high school, I discovered my love for math and began tutoring classmates in that area. My interest in writing developed during my educational career at The University of Tulsa, where I had courses in advanced exposition and argumentation and writing for the professions along with literature classes in the areas of Russian and British Literature of the 18th Century, Eastern Literature, and Greek Literature. I also took courses in Spanish, including a composition course. I currently have contracts to publish 2 manuscripts in 2011, one being a compilation of poetry and the other being a research paper dealing with depression stemming from exercise withdrawal. I feel that we all have the aptitude to learn, yet each individual discovers that aptitude in a different manner. My first and most important goal is always to convey this to the student in an effort to let them know I believe

I love tutoring and working with students of all ages. I believe all students can learn; however, each student has a unique learning style. I am patient, considerate, and capable of finding the students learning style. After doing so, my goal is to provide the best education possible and help the student achieve academic success. A few good educators can make a difference in a student's educational experience. My goal is to make that difference in all my student's lives. Presently, I'm pursuing an MBA in Organizational Psychology & Development from American Intercontinental University. I'm driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education with the students that I instruct. I have earned a BS in Family Studies & Gerontology which has enabled my to understand the anxiety felt by students while attempting to master a specific subject. I've compile various research papers and reports

I am a graduate of UNC-Pembroke with a degree in Business Administation/Management. During the course of my college years as well as high school, I had to take a lot of math classes. We were always forming study groups and helping one another out. I brought that same drive into a Learning Center in NC where I worked for 2 years. I loved getting together with the kids and teaching them fun ways of learning. I enjoy working with kids. I have been in their shoes & understand what they want. I like for children to see the way learning relates to everything around them, that's why I like to use visuals. I believe it captures their mind & brings fun into learning.

In my classroom I had activity with structure. I encouraged my students to think for themselves to solve problems rather than depending on me to think for them. They were allowed to have the freedom to make mistakes, and to have courage to try new material. I cushioned them by allowing them to have time to think, to go at their own speed, and to work hands on with learning partners. We had opportunities each day to work as a team, and we built personal responsibility for homework, daily assignments, classroom behavior and citizenship. I had individual time with each student every day, as well as presenting visual lessons to the entire group. Each child felt secure and valued. I have always loved children, and have never wanted to be anything other than a teacher. I taught a total of 30 years, with 23 of those years being in public school. The other 7 were spent operating and teac

I believe the best way to help a child learn is to, "follow the child". I try to let the child find his own answers and simply be a cataylst between the materials and the child. It is in this way the child gains confidence and independence through the learning process. I am patient, laid back, and passionate about education. I find great joy in seeing my students become excited about their studies. I like to help my students think outside the box and be creative with their ideas. I am a graduate of a private small private college with a high standard of academic excellence. I balanced my school work with playing college volleyball, therefore I know what it takes to be dedicated and work hard. I hold a bachelor's degree in History as well as teaching certification in the Montessori Method for ages 3-6 yrs. I have certification in Southern Appalachian Ecology earned from the Tremont
