A Little Bit About Me...

I have been working with children my whole school career from a Kinder Helper in fifth grade, a PAL (Peer Assistant Leader) in high school, and to a synchronized swimming coach today. I find history incredibly interesting and want to help others feel the same way about it. It is a story that needs to be shared. I took AP history classes in high school. I am about to walk the stage at the University of the Incarnate Word holding a B.A in History with honors, also with a minor in Psychology. On top of studying basic US History and World History, I have also studied a great range of topics in history including: Victorian Era to Modern America, Consumer Culture, Industrial and Innovative America, History of Afghanistan, and the History of Russia. I also did an Internship at Ft. Sam Houston over World War One. My future plans are to teach through being a museum docent or curator.

I have extensive experience teaching indiviuals from 6-12 grade and beyond,- reading, writing, spelling, comprehension, study skills, organizational skills, behavior management etc....especially if they learn differently. Special Education is my passion and helping indiviuals to overcome and become sucessful in their educational career is very important to me.
Learning styles. Student centered and led Responsibility for their own education,,,,I am there to guide and clarify

A Little Bit About Me...

I have extensive work experience and knowledge in the areas of Adult Education and Literacy, teaching English as a Second Language, Math and Science. I would like to share my enthusiasm for these subjects, and education in general. My teaching experiences in Adult Education and Literacy at Northside ISD, San Antonio Texas have allowed me to work with students from diverse backgrounds. During my teaching positions, I developed many skills including curriculum development, written and verbal communication skills, and sensitivity for diverse cultures. In the classroom, I create a student-centered where students have an opportunity to work collaboratively and share their ideas with me in constructing the learning and teaching process, rather than a teacher-centered environment. I am an energetic and enthusiastic instructor, constantly interacting with students. I don’t want students to ... read more

UT-SAN ANTONIO STUDENT WITH DIVERSE SKILL SET

I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

With the right attitude we could all be successful!

I student centered. I believe you have to know how the student learns and tailor the work to interest them and relate the material to real world scenarios. The student needs to be engaged to be able to reach their full potential.
I am a certified Special Education teacher. I work in the NEISD district. I have been a redirection and behavior teacher, a self contained teacher, a resource teacher, and I have co-taught a class. I have taught resource classes in reading(phonics, fluency, comprehension), math (STAAR prep). I had a tutoring client for 3 years working on math every week. I am motivated and love a challenge.

A Little Bit About Me...

Working hard and always driven is how I was able to obtain a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Bilingual 4th – 8th grade. Sul Ross State University gave me the tools and expertise needed in order to achieve mastery on my chosen career in education as well as making me proficient in all academic areas such as English, Math, and Science including Bilingual Education.Furthermore my college courses at Sul Ross made me alert to the importance of hands on activities, visuals aids and providing individualized instructional support for a diverse population.During the last four years Ive had the privilege to gain a great deal of knowledge and to experience working with kids on a day to day basis.
Working with kids is my fascination. I believe that teaching children should not be standing up and lecturing or simply explaining something. Its about getting ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My missionary experiences informed me of one idea: people are important and they have to be considered person-by-person. Those experiences have led me to take a teaching philosophy and teaching practice that is person-centric. I work to understand the rhetorics, theories, practices, and experiences that inform each student and the classroom as a whole. In practice, this manifests in extensive talking and co-writing (on daily assignments) to assess where exactly these students are at and how I can help them. I believe that each student, each individual, has the desire and capacity to learn, so I am constantly working to demystify composition so they can truly see how language can inform them and make their lives better.
Applicable to this job, I remember my high school years and the processes I had during my English and Composition assignments. I completed an English Bachelor’s degr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching credentials are in English and education. However... At the middle school level and high school level, I have taught/tutored English composition, geography, history, social studies, government, economics, and computer applications. At the college and adult level, I have taught/tutored English composition, oral communications (public speaking and debate), business and business administration, resume writing, advanced computer applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and the Open Office Suite). Having been CEO of a corporation in the public arena, do not expect me to be your normal indoctrinated politically correct public school teacher or college professor. Judge me by the results.
Whether it is in front of a class of 40 or one-on-one, I have been endowed not only with the talent to teach, but also with the God-given ability to motivate. Mo ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my college career until I earned my B.A., I tutored fellow students at various stages of the writing process, from conceptualization to polishing. I also met frequently with fellow tutors to discuss researched tutoring theory and tactics. Having achieved great success in this position, my supervisor, the director of Schreiner's Writing Center, also personally arranged much contract work for me with clients of various ages and levels of education.
In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that ... read more

I have a truly divine passion for working with children. I will not stop until I have helped your child discover all of his/her academic talents! We all have strengths and weaknesses, and I am available to build upon your child's strengths, and to also drastically improve his/her weaknesses, resulting in a more confident, eager learner. No challenge will seem too big! I believe that with the right guidance, support, and encouragement each child can become an extraordinary student. I look forward to touching as many lives as I can through education.
