I am a teacher and tutor. A good deal of my experience has been teaching Reading and Language Arts. I also have a degree in Learning Disabilities. I have taught general education as well as special education. I have taught at all levels. My most recent experience is in a primary class. I have also tutored secondary and college level students in Writing Skills and Reading. The individual needs of the student will direct my teaching strategies. I make every effort to be student centered. For example, "what is the best way to help this person understand reading comprehension?". Students have varying apptitudes and well as strengths and sometimes, weaknesses. I develop a strategy to help my students learn by exploring education through their own apptitudes and strengths. Doing this results in learning as well as reducing weaknesses.

When tutoring students I try to take a multidimensional approach. I attempt to show the child, explain it in my own words, have the student explain it in his/her own words, and then have them apply and practice so that the material really sticks. Throughout high school and college I helped numerous classmates develop efficient ways of studying as well as providing assistance to learning and understanding the given material. During high school I mainly tutored my neighbor's young children in elementary subjects. In college I helped fellow classmates in my major and minor. The most challenging tutoring experience I had was when my own brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia and he was taken out of school for months at a time. I was able to help him learn a full course of high school biology, english, and spanish and he was able to complete the courses with passing grades and be promoted t

I observe the students to see what their learning style is and adjust how I teach according to that. For nine years I taught at the elementary level in private schools. I taught some inclusive classes and developed plans for my students to succeed. Identifying a student's learning style and giving them the tools to progress gave them the ability and confidence to do well. Positive reinforcement along with academic success encourages students to continually aim high. Not only were the parents pleased with the improvements, but also the students were as well.

I've maintain excellent classroom management skills and an ability to keep students on task. I've integrated multiple teaching styles to intensify the range of learning. As an experience teacher, I'd like to apply unique practices of teaching. I rely on demonstation to help my students comprehend what is being taught. I model new concepts several times and then take students through guided practice. Once guided practice has been completed, students begin practicing independently.

As an English major who sauntered through college, I know that a decent grade on a paper comes regardless of your skill or ability with writing or reading, but rather from how well you make note of the important ideas and events of what you have to read. In the lower grade schools, proving to the teacher that you've read the material is often enough to get a good grade, while in high school and college the key is to mention or display the ideas of the author that your teacher has been beating you over the head with. I'm a recent college graduate from NC State, with a degree in Creative Writing. However, the CW course instilled in me knowledge in a variety of fields from film to philosophy, and as a requirement of modern education made me more than just fluent in the language of computers. I'm a would-be author, and a writer of short stories, and have won an honorable mention in a few poe

I work hard to help students do the best they can. I look for ideas outside the box to help students learn.
