A Little Bit About Me...

Having taught children and youth from age 5 through 16, I can truly say that I enjoy the experience. The truest reward is the facial expresssion when a revelation of learning has occured, or a skill mastered. I believe that learning can be made more interesting by showing its relevance in everyday living. To meet the teaching objectives, I employ a four-step teaching/learning process: 1. Presentation of material in a format relevant to the learner 2. Repetition of key learning principles and ideas 3. Practice, practice, practice 4. Successful re-presentation of the material to the instructor

I'm a 2009 graduate of the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I attained my degree is Paychology. I wish to pursue my master degree in community counseling. I love working with children. In high school I tutored kids in math, reading, and science at the YMCA in their after school program. While at UAB I gained skills in writing research papers and doing lab work. I also worked with Camp Fire USA in their Links-up Mentoring program.
I love working with kids, that's why I got into Psychology. I believed that any child can succeed if they are just giving the opportunity and the help they need to make it and I want to be that person. I'm very outgoing, kind, and patient. My goal is to uplift the child and be a positive role model to them.
