In 2011 to 2012 I worked as a lead tutor for Academic Achievers in Muncie. My core focus was to improve writing skills. I would help students organize their thoughts into a structured document, and on occasion I would help build their vocabulary with five words of the week. Currently, I work at the Muncie Children's Museum where I create programs for children to exercise their motor and critical thinking skills in the visual arts and music. I teach according to the student's learning style. I acknowledge that all students learn differently, and I excel at catering to visual, aural, and kinesthetic needs of students.

• Drafted and edited correspondence, reports, and materials for company website. • Created presentations for two East Central Writing Conventions, where I spoke with a team to universities across the Midwest. • Trained new employees at Indiana Wesleyan University Writing Center. • Led and developed writing workshops for over 80 students each semester with a team. • Published in Indiana Wesleyan University’s literary magazine, Caesura, and LIVE Bible. • Completed an internship with writer and editor, Kelli Trujillo, in 2007 where I helped research for her book, The Busy Mom’s Guide to Spiritual Survival.

I am an experienced teacher/tutor. I will focus on the designated subject area and work to fill any learning gaps that exist for that subject. I will work to empower the student to learn tools and study strategies to help them when the student works independently. The study session is divided into a variety of learning activities to hold the student's interest and enthusiasm. I am friendly, personable, understanding, and caring. I feel responsibility to maximize the time allowed for the session, and remain upbeat and encouraging as we move forward to learn and reinforce skills. I will communicate with the parent about areas of instruction that occurred.

I have been teaching in different areas and capacities for three years now. I started by teaching English to Korean students in Daegu, South Korea. Here I taught all different skill levels and ages. When I returned to the United States I began working at Sylvan Learning Center. I was responsible for running the center. Here I was trained in many of the Sylvan Learning methodologies and feel very comfortable in identifying obstacles that hinder a students progression. At which time I incorporate learning strategies that help them get over the "hump" My style is easy to get along with. I am friendly with my students but am able to keep the boundaries of the teacher student relationship in play at all times. I do not believe in giving students answers but rather leading them towards a natural discovery of the answers on their own.

For three years I taught high school seniors in an Advanced Composition class where they were being "trained" in the specific paper styles that are found in college classes. I am well aware of the writing process and the different types of papers colleges and high school require for graduation. I am a very hands-on learner, so I tend to try to make things as hands on or as real to life as possible. Since graduating from Baptist Bible College in 2006, I have been teaching high school English in Indiana for six years now. I taught three years at Bethesda Christian School in Brownsburg, where I spanned English 9, 10, 11, Senior Speech, and Advanced Composition for seniors. In 2010 I began teaching at Faith Christian School in Lafayette; there I taught English 9, 10, and 11. I was also the Yearbook Advisor two years at Faith. July 1, 2013, I had my first baby, and I have decided to stay

I am a former teacher of English, acting, SAT Prep, and Public Speaking. All this experience gives me unique perspective. I am adventurous and like to help students enjoy learning. I have taught 7th grade - adults in subjects ranging from acting, English/language arts, and Japanese adults how to speak and write better English. My teaching style is hands-on. Students learn best by doing, so after a mini-lesson, I encourage them to try it out for themselves.
