A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a BA in Communications Sciences and Disorders and I have tutored children in the Chicago Public School district for several years. I will be attending graduate school to receive a Master's degree in communication disorders. As an undergrad I have worked with children with learning disabilies, languge impairments, and neurological disorders. I am patient and dedicated to working with children in all capacities.
Teaching is a very rewarding occupation. I believe that in order to learn one must be stimulated in many different ways. We all learn through visual, tactile, and auditory methods and many require combination strategies. My experience with working with all kinds of exceptional children has allowed me to see the potential in every child. I am dedicated to helping children and contributing to their greatness.

My teaching style is Socratic. I find out where the student's understanding lies, and then I lead them through the process of discovery. This is an interactive process. I do not believe that a student will stay involved if they are not actively engaged. Math is somewhat different. After breaking down the method of problem-solving used in the student's textbook, I would guide them step-by-step through the problem-solving process. It is essential to acknowledge the student's effort through praise and encouragement. It is very important to provide the parents with feedback regarding their child's progress.
I am a recent college graduate. I was award "Top Student" Honors in Genetics for 2007-2008, and "Outstanding Student Honors" for 2008-2009. My overall GPA was 3.8/4.0. I am interested in how others learn, and I took several psychology courses including Educational Psycholo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Because I have such a strong passion for teaching and children, I love to help others succeed and would do whatever it takes to do so. My teaching involves incorporating many games into lesson plans to grasp my students attention, thus making the lesson fun also. Because students learn differently it is our job to teach based on their learning style, which is what I am best at doing. I love to break down information in ways that relate to my students.
As a Golden Apple Scholar of Illinois, my passion for teaching is constantly growing and requires much experience. I have taught summer school classes and taught many lessons at the schools I've observed for my clinical practice. Overall, I have completed 120 hours of clinical experience while teaching part-time at a Learning Center, where I've tutored students in Beginning Reading, Reading, Study Skills, and Mathematics.

I recently graduated from North Park University, summa cum laude. I have earned a BGS in Human Development which has enabled me to understand the cultural, social and psychological dynamics of human development. While at NPU, I served as a private humanities tutor and strived to help students achieve their academic goals. For the past year and half, I have volunteered my time at Gilda’s Club Chicago and have worked closely with men, women, and children who are diagnosed with cancer. I primarily served as a facilitator in the children’s school and coordinated play activities for children and adolescents. I am currently enrolled in a M.ED program for Special Education at UIC to further my education and work with children and adults in the community. Given my volunteer experience and the nature of my prior education, I believe that I will be well-suited to this institution.

More About This Tutor...

As a private school teacher for over twenty years, I have taught students from preschool to college, including teaching ESL to Chinese immigrants, from intermediate to advanced. While living in California, I took seminars on how to work with students who have learning difficulites in the areas of reading, spelling, writing or language arts.
I especially love working with elementary students in the areas of reading, spelling or language arts. I usually can help a student improve their reading grades, and help them to decode new words. I also like teaching ESL because it gives me a broader concept of the world outside the U.S. I really enjoy learning about new cultures.

More About This Tutor...

I was a self-contained and resource teacher at both the elementary and middle school. My role was to provide differentiated lessons to met the various needs and abilities, write and update measureable IEPs aligned to state standards, do curriculum assessment, data collection, do case studies, mentor new Special Education teachers, team teach, and work collaboratively with therapists, social workers, regular education teachers, assistants, and parents. I also spent time teaching regular education in both 2nd and 3rd grade, and having classes with the Academically Talent students.
The first thing I would want to know about my students is how do they learn. This would allow me to develop lesson plans that would be meaningful and productive to them. Another area that I feel is necessary would be their current abilities. Doing curriculum-based assessments would allow me to align an ... read more
