I currently hold a BA in Psychology with a minor in Business Administration. In previous positions interpersonal, written and verbal communication, diversity, and professional skills have strengthen and will continue to do so; but nothing compared to enriching another’s life by way of education.

I have a very fair, effective teaching style that envelopes the idea of the entire classroom as a teaching tool. Using every method to reach every child at his or her own level. When I teach, I feel I am contributing and learning at the same time, this gives me a great feeling of worth. This attitude of worth and self-respect penetrates each student and increases their desire to excel. Grades is not everything attitude, loyalty and trust. Grades improve with effort and to do that the student must choose to want that better grade. I provide the atmosphere for them to do so. Currently, I have been teaching Emergency Medicine to help Reynolds Army Community Hospital maintain 100% proficiency in job qualifications and standards. This includes slides and instructor led courses. I have taught in English in a School to a classroom size of about 30 students in Korea for about 6 months. This requ

My personal philosophy embraces ownership, one of the top ingredients for successful learning. Personal ownership creates a more perceptive learning process. Students will be more willing to maintain their learning as they proceed throughout the year. Another way ownership makes a big academic difference is through motivation. Ownership will also create self-confidence. A good teacher demonstrates faith in their ability to achieve simply by making them part of the process. When asking them ‘what do you think;’ their participation will increase and they will better remember the facts being taught. In conclusion, students with ownership have optimized their academics, productivity, and self-esteem. After obtaining a Masters of Science with a Minor in Education, teaching has become my life pursuit. Even when working for a large Biotech firm, I have tutored for one year in public sch

I believe that the goal of any teacher is to help their students succeed. My communication style is dynamic and engaging and I believe that challenging students while supporting their goals is the key to success. I understand that not all students learn the same way and I strive to embrace individual styles of learning. Having considerable experience in small business consulting, I chose to pursue my Masters in Business Administration. I finished my MBA with a 4.0 grade point average and graduated Summa Cum Laude with my Bachelors degree in Business Administration. My writing and research skills are superior. My experience in teaching and coaching in the workplace will lend itself to assisting learners at all levels.

I'm at my best as a teacher when the student has a teachable spirit. I believe all of us (students, teachers and tutors) possess this. We have an innate desire to learn. Sometimes, though, that desire has to be gently prodded because it's been lost inside a student. I stretch my students, sometimes beyond what they think they can do. Encouragement and watchfulness go a long way in helping a student go further. Praise and accountability do, also. My job as a tutor or teacher is to find out how my student learns best, then adapt my teaching style to his/her skill level. I know how to do that. Students thrive in my presence when they bring a desire to learn because they go away feeling like they've accomplished something important. I'm certified in Grades 6-12 to teach all English and language arts subjects in Oklahoma. I'm also certified to teach speech/drama/debate in Grades 6-

I currently hold a Bachelors of English Education. I am certified to teach 7th through 12th grade English, Speech, Drama, and Debate. I have spent most summers learning new teaching methods and keeping current with reading trends including Advanced Placement, Great Expectations, Professional Learning Communities, and various writing workshops. I enjoy reading young adult literature which has gained me an advantage in the classroom. Graduating Magna Cum Laude from college, I have always been a good student. My goal as a teacher has always been to lead by example. I have spent the last five years continuing my education through any opportunities given to me. I have taught 7th graders to seniors in high school and have learned to teach each group differently. I have always been a teacher who can break down the information to where my students can learn the parts and create the whole. Englis

I believe in hands on learning. Everyone can learn but each individual is different and we each learn in different ways. Hands on learning allows the learner to experience the material visually, auditorily, and kinetically. I think it is extremely important to get to know my students and their needs individually. I am kind, patient, and fun, but I have very high expectations and I am very consistent. I love to teach and I love to see my students learn! I recently graduated from Northeastern University with my BA in Pscyhology and my MAT in Elementary Education. I have always wanted to be a teacher. From the time I was in high school I worked to have as much experience working with children as I could. My full year of student teaching was fulfilled at Josiah Quincy Elementary in downtown Boston. I worked in two classrooms, 1st grade and Kindergarden, under two of the best teachers I have
