I also train LSSP interns and trainees, conduct cognitive/academic testing, psychological testing, counseling, consultation, functional behavioral assessments, attend ARD meetings, Manifestation Determination Review meetings, and assist in the RtI process.

University of the South, B.A., Major in English Literature, Minor in American History, Minor in Physics University of Mississippi, J.D. (Juris Doctor) Admitted to State Bar of Mississippi and of Texas. Practiced law in Houston, Texas until partial retirement in 2014. While in law practice I made a constant effort to stay connected to people--not just to work at a desk all day. This just makes work more enjoyable for me and I hope that this quality allows any tutored student to enjoy learning as I do. Have taught adult classes in variety of subjects from 1980 to the present--ranging from legal, to science, to liberal arts such as history and literature. When I teach I want to engage the student or students. I want to grab their interest and keep it. This requires two main things of the teacher: he must know the subject well and he must have enthusiasm for the subject. This almost

I began tutoring people when I was in the eigth grade. I decided I wanted to help out at the school across the street from my middle school in Colorado. I enrolled in a class that allowed us to go and assist the teachers and help the students. I fell in love with kids then for sure. I already knew I liked them because I started babysitting when I was 11 and couldn't stop! Then in ninth grade, a neighbor failed kindergarten and asked if I would starting coming over several days a week to help him understand what was being taught. Needless to say, he made it to the first grade! I now have a 17 year old sister who is constantly asking for my assistance in her homework and it is with great pleasure that I assist her. I have a background in Psychology, so I am extremely intuitive with what a person needs regarding their learning style. I am able to adapt my teaching style to their needs. Pati

Experience tutoring math to elementary age children through adults in college. I have earned a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of New Mexico, and I am working on completing pre-med requirements at the University of Houston Clear Lake. I have completed 15 credit hours in Biological Sciences with a GPA of 4.0. I also have two years of experience as a community mentor, working with elementary school children. I enjoy teaching children. I normally have a very relaxed style, but I emphasize setting goals and completing the task at hand. I gain a great deal of personal satisfaction in helping others learn. I believe the most important attributes of a good teacher are, 1. keeping the student's best interest in mind, and 2. maintaining a positive attitude and keeping the learning process interesting for the student.

My teaching style is thus: First engage the student about what subject he likes, engage in small talk and then tutor the assignments. ALways praise the student and point his or her strong abilities and plus tell the student they can do this assignment. First I let the student try the assignment and then I will jump in and help. Since moving to Houston in 1999, I have accrued teaching experience in the following venues: Adminsitration, helping students with time management skills and homework. Taught my own children phonics, constructed science fair experiments and writing assignments. Tutor: Tutored a child with learning disabilities in Social Science, Language Arts, Spelling and History.

I currently work as a professional science/health writer, and I have a keen grasp of literature comprehension, grammar, and composition. I have tutored students in English, math, and science. Additionally, I have volunteered as a soccer coach, Sunday school teacher, and "Hands-On Science" instructor in the classroom. I previously taught private swimming lessons and piano lessons for children. I believe the key to academic success is ensuring the student feels a sense of accomplishment and pride in self. My method of teaching focuses on determining the best learning style and beginning with lessons that will bring about success, and then challenging the student gradually. I try to make learning fun, while encouraging questions and an "out-of-the-box" approach to problem solving. The ultimate goal is to develop an independent and motivated learner.

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling. I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal oppor

I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BA in Psychology and a minor in French. During my college experience, I worked with students of various ages, from elementary school through college, in different capacities, including tutor, mentor, guidance intern, and teaching assistant. I have tutored students in English, psychology, geology, mathematics, Spanish, general sciences, technology, and history. I have a strong academic background, earning various scholarships and membership in several honor societies, as well as recognition for my research work. Beyond my college experiences, I served at a parish this past spring in San Lucas Toliman, Guatemala teaching English classes at a local primary school. After many years as a student, I recognize what a difference a knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and caring teacher can make in a child's educational experience. I strive to fulfill this

Throughout college and graduate school I've always driven myself to be at the top of my class. I have earned a bachelors, MS, and PhD in Psychology, which has not only helped develop my interpersonal skills, but has also made me well versed in grammar and writing research papers not only for class, but for publication in scientific journals as well. In the last eight years I have tutored students in statistics, English, psychology, basic math, and science. The most important thing I've learned over the last 10 years is that children do not all learn the same way. For some children I need to think outside the box and come up with a creative way of explaining a concept in order for the child to understand. I want children to experience academic success and will take the time to patiently explain concepts that may be particularly difficult. I believe that with the appropriate environme

I am a current graduate student in the field of Public Health and policies. I have graduated with a bachelor in public administration, both of these majors allowed me to have a clear understanding on the different techniques required to write a good essay. The diversity in each professor that I have had also allowed me to get familiar with diverse writing techniques and reading techniques. My classes also allowed me to be better acquainted with the world of public speaking and how to make it efficient. My associate degree in science gave me insights on math and science to a certain level. I have been a mentor before and I am currently doing volunteer work that allows me to use these skills to help middle school and High school kids. I believe it is important to determine what kind of learner each kid is (visual, auditory, and hands-on). This allows me to figure out a way to effectively t

Teaching and working with children I believe is a passion one must have it can't be acquired. All children can learn and can find a joy in the learning process if they are guided well. I am patient and easy going with all especially children of all ages. I believe all children have the right to the best education possible. My goal is to provide and serve the children in the quest for educational excellence. As a graduate of Texas Southern University, where excellence is our motto, I was driven to acheive excellence in biology. I earned my BS in Biology in December of 2009, which has enabled me to gain understanding in science and math. I have also learned during my time at TSU to write and gain skills in writing due to writing lab reports and many essays along the way. During the last five years I have had a chance to tutor a few of my fellow biology majors in biology.

I have coursework in special education and human development and family studies that has prepared me to work with children and families. My volunteer and paid experience as a substitute and child care teacher has allowed me to apply this knowledge directly to working with this group. In addition, I have mentored high school youth in the areas of scholarship and community service. As a freelance grant writer and nonprofit management professional, my reading and writing skills would be invaluable to young children. I like working with children hands on and gaining a better understanding of what works best for them. Whether it be with visuals, paper, using words; I am up to meet the needs of the child to fulfill their highest potential. Also, I like learning from the child's response to see what works best and what doesn't as a best practices.
