More About This Tutor...

I'm certified in both elementary general and special education. I've taught for the past 19 years. I have my masters in educational administration and will soon be a certified educational diagnostician. My favorite subjects are reading and math. I can tutor/teach writing but it's not my favorite subject. My philosophy is that every child can learn but our job as teachers is to figure out the best way to meet their learning needs. If it's not fun I don't want to do it and the students feel the same way. Technology: I create district trainings using Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Camtasia. Would love to work with adults needing to learn computer skills. I'm currently the "go to" person in the office when anyone needs assistance.

Ex-classroom school teacher with 10 years plus experience!

My teaching style is one that always tries to relate to the child and to have fun. Does the child enjoy video games, dinosaurs, soccer, dance, or a particular cartoon character? When I discover what it is the child enjoys, I bring that element into the subject we are learning about. If the child likes soccer and struggles in reading, I research about famous soccer players and find books on them. Perhaps, at the end of a teaching session, we go outside and kick the soccer ball for 5 minutes as a source of inspiration to get work completed. Bringing in other ways of learning through play and games is also something I enjoy. Playing simple math games or reading games is a easy way to teach a child, without them realizing they are learning.

ELAR Teacher: Getting your child engaged & invested!

Unorthodox is the best way to describe my teaching style. Unorthodox in that I will change my approach or activities based on student comprehension. Unorthodox in that I truly believe that for every student who is confused or doesn’t understand a concept, there is a teacher who didn’t do their job. My greatest strength lies in creating lessons and activities where students will want to engage. Engagement leads to a permanent investment. When a student is engaged by a lesson, they will remember that lesson. To introduce Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” my students played "Who's crazier: Edgar Allan Poe or Mrs. W’s Mom or Dad???” After reading a series of statements such as: “Removed tires from daughter’s car for talking back” “Married his first cousin,” students would guess if it was Poe or my mom/dad. The level of participation in class that day and the days that followed wa ... read more

Learning can be fun and exciting; it's all in our attitude!

I have been in education for 18 years. I started in special education and general education. I taught math, English, reading, science, and history. I also taught the GED and the state test (CA). I tutored all subjects to homebound students. I facilitated reading programs and held workshops for teachers that taught special needs students. I was also a high school counselor for 5 years and have my credential in school psychology
I love working with students and my style is direct teaching; I feel that a student needs to master the concept being taught before moving on to the next level.

More About This Tutor...

I consider myself to be a compassionate, organized and concerned with the success of my students. I will work until I find a strategy that will work for your child. I believe students need the opportunity to learn in a hands-on environment with guided practice until they can become independent learners.
I am a graduate of Texas A&M Commerce where I earned my bachelors degree in elementary education and will also complete my Masters of Science degree in school counseling in May 2010. I have been teaching 3rd and 4th grade for a total of nine years. I would like to tutor elementary age children in reading or math.

Due to my desire to increase my knowledge, I graduated a year early from my university with a BA in Psychology, and a minor in Political Science. I am currently in Graduate School, majoring in Community Counseling. This is because I have a great desire to work with people, and help them out. I spent two years as an AVID tutor, working in all subjects but specifically Psychology, History, Government and Economics, Math, and English.
I work with students very well. I make sure that they are able to connect with me, and enjoy the process of learning. It's important to like what you are studying, so that you can get the most out of it. I feel as though it is necessary for them to enjoy the setting they are in, and I do my best to accommodate them. Learning should not be something that students do not look forward to, contrary; they should be excited to learn something new. I make sure ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been substitute teaching in the Dallas Independent School District for the past three school years. I teach grades six through twelve but would love to teach elementary. I found there were too many students in each class to give the younger children the individual attention they need. While I cover all subjects, Reading is my specialty.
My teaching style is one of patience and fun. I let the children read aloud and when I cross a word I think they don’t understand I stop. First I try to determine if they can answer the word based upon its place in the sentence. I encourage them to stretch their brains. I make a contest of who can find the word the fastest in the dictionary and we discuss the meaning.
