I also developed and deployed training material to disseminate information on new data base applications in the telecommunication arena. I home schooled my son and he then exited a private high school with honors. I have an interest in helping your student achieve the very best that they can. Call and schedule with me to position

Can answer the question, what is of importance and why? I allow students to discover answers by themselves by prompting them with questions. This hands off technique reflects the minimalist philosophy of the writing center I worked for, and I have found it is a far more effective way to help students grasp concepts which will globally make their writing better. Understanding the fundamentals of good writing is the most important tool to becoming a good writer; where merely diagnosing an issue and giving an answer for it leads to much more lazy writing in the future. That's what makes fundamental understanding so important, because it carries over into future assignments. As a student, I earned a 3.87 in my major of English Arts, while both working as an employee for the school writing center and as a contributor for the school newspaper. I also did a lot of moonlighting outside of the wr

I have great aspirations of teaching students of all levels by illustrating and discussing the principles of accounting. I enjoy interacting with students by providing real-life examples to how accounting works in various businesses. Not all students may understand the first example; therefore, I may need to provide several to have all the students understand a particular concept. My goal as a teacher is to explain the complete accounting cycle to a student and that they understand it. I have received my degree in accounting as well as an MBA in international business with a high GPA. I have been in the tax accounting field for 15 years working in large corporations as well as small and large public accounting firms. I have also taught at the local junior college instructing various accounting classes (i.e. Intermediate Accounting I & II, Income Tax, Cost Accounting and Information

I strive to make learning fun in any way that I can. I always include facts that keep a student interested in the subject I am teaching. I want to make an impression on my students and make them realize that every subject is important and interesting in its own way. My goal is to leave each student with the same passion for learning that I have. I was a History, Chemistry and Literature tutor while attending Austin Community College. My experience as a tutor for the last five years had allowed me to help perfect my teaching style. My college education lasted ten years and during that time I studied a wide variety of subjects, such as Chemistry, Biology, Literature, Writing, Government, Anthropology and History. I will also be receiving my teaching certificate in the next 2 years.

Although I currently work as an Administrator, I have extensive teaching experience with all grade levels from PreK to adults. I have spent most of my tenure as a bilingual teacher, often teaching Spanish, English I-IV, and Speech during the summer sessions. I spent my last five years of teaching as a Bilingual Interventionist which allowed me to acquire intensive training in working with bilingual and ESL dyslexic students. Working one on one and with small groups really allowed me to understand how students learn and helped me in identifying the ways to best teach them. I believe that a good relationship between student and teacher is an absolute necessity if a student is to be successful. Although the teacher may be perceived as the one who "runs" the session, the student is just as important in determining the extent of the instruction. I firmly believe that the learning environmen

As a college graduate I have worked in the field of education for about four years. I am truly intrinsic about working with kids and discovering the true talent and gifts they have to offer. I graduated undergrad with a degree in special education and continued to pursue a masters in Instruction and Curriculum with a focus in reading. I have learned extensives ways to work with kids that may have different challenges. I am currently the reading and dyslexic liason for Cy-Fair ISD. I enjoy working with reading because it is the fundmental building block of education. My teaching style is very unique. I am fairly young and I like to invovle the students in the lesson instead of just lecturing the whole time. I believe in todays society children like to use thier visual, auditory, and tactile skills to grasp the concept of a lesson. This is a new age and with that requires research and lear

Teaching has been a passion for me for a long time. I believe that if one is to effectively learn a language, one needs to get a close to immersion as is possible. Therefore, reading outloud, pronunciation, listening, and speaking are focused on. Although grammar and spelling are important, so is comprehension. Through visualising a sentence instead of just a word, one has a better chance at understanding, and will learn vocabulary more quickly. Students of all ages will benefit from my method. As is evidenced by my background, I hold education as one of the most valuable of commodities. Throughout life, an education is something that can never be taken away. It is a form of wealth that stays with you. I have two Master's degrees. One in Accountancy and one in Business Administration. My undergraduate education focused on International Studies and French.
