Have Fun Learning!!!

I am Monica Taylor I am an outgoing person who loves to teach. I have worked with after school programs for 11 years as a tutor, Programs Coordinator, and Assistant Director of Summer Reading Program. With this program I worked with at risk kids form some rough neighborhoods with homework and life skills. For 3 years I worked in daycare running summer programs focusing on math and reading skills. With the program I was able to help kids from ages 6 to 12 year old learn and master up to 60 new words each summer. Most recently I have been a Head Start Teacher for 2 years making sure students are kindergarten ready! I have a passion for helping children learn and have fun while doing it. I like to test all children when I first start working with them to see where they are and keep records of progress so parents always know how their child is doing. I have lots of patience, drive and ded ... read more

Continued learning equals continued growth.

I have been teaching now for a total of four years. However, I have been working in the educational field for eight years. Prior to becoming a teacher, I worked as a library clerk. Also, I have experience as a tutor. I tutored for two years in an after-school program at a local church in my community. Currently, I am a special education teacher at Frederick Law Olmsted Academy North in Louisville, Kentucky. I mainly teach sixth grade language arts classes. My skills and knowledge of how to effectively educate students have continued to improve over the years. The summative evaluations I have received each year as a teacher have been positive. Administrators at my school often communicate to me that they are appreciative of the manner in which I interact with my students. They especially like the way I always maintain a positive attitude and a calm demeanor with my students. I feel tha ... read more

Student of life who loves to learn and teach other.

I call myself of life because I am always open to learn new things and ideals about the world around us. I have read the bible each year since I was 16 years old and I have taught deaf adults in a church setting. I grew up in Louisville, KY and attended Male High School. I went to DeVry in Columbus, OH to study computer science. In January 89, I went to Eastern Kentucky University to study Retail Mangement.
My teaching style is to take a complex ideals and break into several smaller groups to gain a better understanding on the main ideal.

I truly enjoy teaching. I believe that a child can learn anything, as long as they have a supportive learning environment. I belive that I have a unique teaching style. I am a whole language and phonetic teacher. I like to teach my children using the multiple intelligences, because we all learn in different ways. When I incoropate my lessons using the multiple intelligences I see great achievements in each and every child in my classroom. The joy that is shown on their faces when they have mastered reading is a very rewarding feeling. I feel that I am a hard worker, and that I give one hundred and ten percent in any task that I am given. My goal in my classroom is to make sure that all my students can read and apply math skills.
As a graduate with a Master's Degree in Elementary Education and a Rank I in Computer Education, I fill that I am highly qualified for this position. I hav ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and training along with working with children and adults. Everyone has the potential to excel in a particular area. Working as an substitute teacher gives me the opportunity to assist in the teaching and instruction of students and at the same time assist the classroom teacher. I have working one on one with students especially in the foreign language field of Spanish. Patience is a virtue especially when training young minds. A few extra hours in a day learning can make a huge difference later in life for children and adults.
As a Webster University graduate, I pursued advanced degrees (Master of Arts) in the fields of HR Management and HR Training and Development. I also attained a BS in Business Administration at Spalding University. I have used the Training and Development degree to a large extent. This comes with tutoring adults to young children in the ... read more

Teaching to me is about how to engage the student. The material that is prepared for daily lessons can be nothing more than just words to some students. The instructor must become one with the student and understand them on their level. Once you can see eye to eye with your students, then you can begin to help them learn and grow. I learn right along with my students, gaining interpersonal skills from every student. The student's feedback and honesty helps me as an instructor meet the needs of future students. Students are the backbone of the future and their strength comes from how you teach them to see themselves in the world making a difference. Knowledge is a tool and as with all tools you have to show the student how use it and make it work for them.

My preferred style of teaching is student-lead. I believe in the Socratic method, but appreciate following a curriculum, as well. I volunteer at a Montessori school and I know that getting learners of all ages interested and excited about a topic is the key to retention.
For the past two years, I have been teaching journal-writing and college classes at the Louisville Comprehensive Care MS Center. Prior to that, I have tutored students ages 7-40 in a various set of topics, primarily math and business subjects.

More About This Tutor...

During the pursuit of my degrees I worked tirelessly to excel. While in school I volunteered as a tutor for the local Boys and Girls Club. I tutored middle school and high school students in literature, math, science and history. Due to my degree in Library Science I have extensive knowledge in writing term papers and research methods.
I believe that all children can be successful academically with the right encouragement and guidance. I believe in showing students the correct way to do the task at hand, and them coaching to explore the materials themselves. I believe that given the right tools and foundation even a academically unsuccessful student can excel.

I have been a playwright for the last ten years, which is why I chose to get my BA in writing. Being involved in extensive reading and writing programs in and out of school has given me a deep appreciation for words. Over the course of my education, I was fortunate enough to tutor several young students struggling with reading and writing, as well as weekly creative writing workshops with elementary students.
The satisfaction that comes from working with a student, one on one, who is struggling, and seeing them change from angry and insecure to confident and proud is immense. I haven't found it anywhere else. As a teacher, my initial goal is to discover how to facilitate the individual learning styles of my students. I strive to instill a confidence that will lead to a willing and open mind conducive to further learning.
