A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a Literacy Coach for 6 years. I am trained in a variety of reading and phonics programs. I have taught grades K-4, reading, and have tutored students Pre-K through 5. I have taught in Florida, Wyoming, and South Carolina. No matter where I have taught, my students have been successful, because I take them from where they are to where they need to go!
I make learning fun! I try to make it as practical as possible. I realize I may need to teach a skill in a couple different ways for the student to grasp it.

I began my 32 year teaching career in the field of music. I taught in the Visalia Unified School District in Visalia, California. I taught classroom music to children in grades 4-6. This was a job that required traveling from school to school encompassing 12 schools a week. During that time, I worked on completing a fifth year of college in order to obtain an elementary teaching credential from California State University, Fresno. Upon completion on my student teaching in a second grade classroom, I began a teaching position in Lindsay, California teaching 2nd grade for 4 years there. My next four years were spent substituting in the Rock Hill, SC school district after relocating from California due to my late husband's job transfer.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Business Intelligence Analyst that uses computer science skills in the real world on a daily basis. My main interaction is with ABAP [SAP] and Excel. I have studied Japanese for 7 years and have traveled throughout Japan. I am originally from England so I social studies have always grabbed my interest with an underlying passion for computer science. I enjoy converting the daily activities to metrics and observing changes in groups based on measurable and immeasurable features. I want to teach children about real world applications for what they teach in school and help adults refine their skills to be utilized efficiently in the workplace.
I observe the learning style of my students and teach them accordingly. I know that one style does not fit all so it is about refining that style for each person so they get the most out of each lesson.

A total learning experience

Since coming to the Charlotte region in 1996, I have had a wide variety of experiences as a language teacher, having taught in public, private, homeschool, summer school and tutoring situations. Although my primary focus is teaching French, I have also had the opportunity to equip students in Spanish I and II to continue with their language studies. Passionate about providing students with cross-cultural experiences, I have been the lead teacher on five different homestay trips to France with students from grades 5-11, as well as coordinated homestays for visiting French students with families in the Charlotte area. I have also coordinated five different "immersion camps" for students, ranging in age from 5-17, creating for students a more "hands-on" approach to learning language.
I believe every student can learn, and as a result incorporate a variety of learning techniques to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working and being with children. I believe that all children learn new things in their own way. I am very patient and out-going. My main goal is to motivate and provide the best teaching possible.
I have been pursing my degree in Early Childhood Education at the University of South Carolina. I chosen to take a hiatus from the University so that I can gain more experience working with young children in an educational setting. During my time at the University I gained valuable knowledge and experience with developing lesson plans, assisting teachers and interacting with young children. I want to use my academic experience and love for children and their parents. I am also looking for an environment to increase my knowledge and grow professionally. I also will be receiving my Associates Degree in Arts, May of 2010.

Because every child learns in a unique variety of ways, I incorporate a wide range of learning methods into each lesson.

There have been numerous studies showing that different types of learning exist, and it is my belief that each individual student needs to be taught through adaptive teaching methodologies. I believe that everyone is unique, and each student needs to develop their own style of learning. It is the job of the educator to discover those different styles and implement a teaching method that is most advantageous to the student.

I love working with people whether they are adults or children. I have a desire for helping anyone achieve their goal for life. I know how important it is to assist others because I support disabled and special needs individuals, so I have to teach them how to be self sufficient, according to their level of understanding. I also realize how important it is to have patience when mentoring them. I know everyone is on a different level, so it might take longer for some to learn, compared to others. It's not where you start or how long it takes, it's just important to finish.

I have taught Rhetoric and Composition and Business Writing at Penn State, UNC-Charlotte, and Winthrop University. I also taught the 8th grade briefly at a private school. I have always received great feedback from my students.
My responsibility as a teacher is to ensure that students leave my classroom more knowledgeable than when they entered. Since my students will come in at varying levels and with different needs, their success must be measured on an individual basis. I want my students to improve in five specific areas by the end of the of my course: 1) the aspects of writing that they recognize as problem areas at the beginning of the learning process; 2) the areas that I identify throughout the semester; 3) the skills necessary to become more critical and analytical readers; 4) the recognition, articulation, and reevaluation of their burgeoning worldviews; and 5) the deve ... read more
