Never,never, never, never ever give up.

I have taught for many years in all levels of secondary school, alternative schools, and tutoring centers.I eat, sleep, and drink tutoring as I tutor every day during the school year and do lots of research to help my kids in whatever academic subject is causing them difficulty. I began my teaching career for the first five years as a high school English teacher and taught regular college prep English courses.The next five years I taught English at the middle school level.Next, I got married and resigned from teaching when our first child was born. For the next twenty!!years, I raised four children and tutored kids sporadically.

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy teaching. It is life-long passion. I have spent my eleven teaching years working with 9-12 grade students, and I have loved every moment. I am patient and easy going. I do not mind trying to think of many different ways to explain a topic. In my classroom, I have created an environment where all my students feel safe and are not afraid to ask questions and actively participate in the learning process. I believe all children can be successful when they are given access to the tools they posess within themselves.
My undergradute years at Kutztown University have truly prepared me to be an educator. I earned a BS in education with a specialization in English. This degree has given me a great "bag of educational tricks." In other words, I am well versed in different teaching strategies for all learning styles. I have taught all genres of literature, as well as, wr ... read more
