I am a firm believer in differentiating instruction to meet the needs of each student. There is no one size fits all plan that will work for all children. My strengths include a foundational approach to learning, well-crafted lesson plans, and utilization of technology to enhance student interest. I feel my positivity, friendliness and dedication will result in academic achievement for all students I encounter.
Teaching and tutoring students for 10 years in grades 1-8 in the areas of reading, writing, math, social studies, civics and government, and Spanish has diversified my experience in educating all ages of children. With a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction, I have developed an extensive knowledge base on how to successfully impart skills to my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent my 13 years as an educator in a variety of capacities. I spent four years as a tutor for an autistic child while I was in school. After receiving my bachelor’s degree in education, I worked for three years as the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade alternative school teacher for the Chandler Unified School District. I then worked part-time as the curriculum writer for a residential alternative facility, also opening and teaching in their middle school program. Following that experience, I spent two years teaching Title 1 English at a middle school. I currently own and operate my own business, earning my master’s of education in the process.
I have spent most of my career working with children who were unsuccessful in a traditional classroom. Discouraged and failing, many of my students had no recent memory of being successful. By showing them that they were capable learner ... read more

I feel as an educator it is always important to learn from the students before you can teach them. The most necessary factor to success is being able to recognize just how the student learns and be able to take your teaching methods and adjust accordingly. Having had many good professors, teachers and tutors personally, I feel that this approach makes a world of a difference. I do try to mix things up in terms of teaching methods, once the subject seems to be sinking in, just to try to get students used to teachers or tutors who may not operate in this manner.
I have currently earned a bachelors degree, BS Physics, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. While doing research I was able to learn more in the areas of biology and math, while also taking biology classes at a community college in San Diego. In addition, I have learned extensive g ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach. I have experience with 5-50 years old and, if pressed, could not name a favorite group. I believe that everyone can learn; some of us just process information in different ways. As a tutor it is my job to discover how a student processes information and adapt my lesson to accommodate them. Learning can be both fun and serious, as long as it is productive.
As part of my lifelong love of learning and teaching, I began tutoring when I was just fourteen years old. While in high school, I usually tutored math (mostly algebra, geometry, and trigonometry) and general science. Once I moved to college, I began to work with middle school as well as high school students again in mostly math and science. However, I have a BA in politics and history; therefore I am extremely confident in many liberal arts subjects. I have also earned an MBA which helped to hone my grammatical a ... read more

"We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself." (Lloyd Alexander, 1924) I like this quote because I believe that every student has the skills to learn any subject through practice and hard work. Every student learns differently and I will help your student reach their full academic potential by catering to their specific learning needs and styles. I will be a support system for your learner to help them with all of their academic needs. Ambition and motivation are two strengths I want my learners to develop and they will accomplish this by actively participating in their own learning. ~Strive for the impossible and be extraordinary.
As an Arizona State graduate, I have developed a strong ethic in leadership, independence, mastery, superior work habits, proficiency in my field, and would like to bring all of t ... read more

Both my education and work experience lend themselves to this position as reading tutor. In school, I worked with all ages in relation to my museum studies coursework, to better understand historic events, places, eras, and people. In designing museum programming and educational initiatives, I worked with young children up to senior adults in the process. My university-level history and women's studies background has exposed me to a wide range of contextual information, and I am eager to utilize this while helping others become more literate.
As a university-level professor, I understand that only about 20% of my students will prosper from a strictly lecture-style course. I have explored other means of learning with my students by encouraging them to read and interpret primary sources (sources written or objects used/produced by historical agents), discuss what they've learned in c ... read more

I have had experience teaching that is inquiry-based but have also taught in a more factual style with lecture. I believe that each student has a different style of learning, and I am more than willing to adapt to the child. It is crucial for students to understand all the fundamentals of education, so that higher levels (college) of education will be obtained. I always make sure the student understands the material every step of the way so that they will not fall behind. I also believe that the student must take what they learn and apply it. I also believe that by excelling in certain areas of school and improving, this will give a higher confidence to the students that will be apparent in all areas of school.
I graduated with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. During my college experience at the University of Arizona, I have participated in two programs that allowed me to ... read more

As a special education masters degreed professional, advocate and behavior specialist and a Board Member and WALK event founder and chairperson for the past three years for the Autism Society of America, you can be sure I believe that all students of all abilities should receive an appropriate education that takes into account their strengths, weaknesses, disability if any and learning style. The key to all teaching and learning is motivation. Teachers are challenged to find the correct motivation for each student and strategies to connect with them by connecting the real world to their curriculum and academic goals. Any child can learn, it is just that students need to be met where they are in life and rapport established to plant seeds of motivation and for learning to begin. We all remember those teachers who were kind to us, made the subject matter either fun, interesting or bot ... read more

I have been both a teacher, substitute for elementary and full-time for middle school, along with having a career in the accounting and bookkeeping venues. I enjoy people and thrive on their successes. One of my lifetime desires is to not only following thru on the beginning steps, debits and credits, but to help people start a pretend company. My expertise is also with working with diverse groups of people. I have taught juvenile delinquents, and up to 60 different ethnic groups. I have a full degree in Elementary Education, and extended courses for accounting with accreditation for sitting for the EA (enrolled agent) exam this year showing my proficiency for taxes--individual.
It is important to recognize that every individual is unique and learns differently. Some need to hear lectures and others need to be 'hands on' and do the project themselves. I have taught a mul ... read more

During the last several years, I have worked in the education field in a variety of ways. I have served as a full time teacher and a substitute teacher.

Since that time I have worked in the education field and in the social work field.
I have had an opportunity to teach every grade level from Pre-K through college seminars. I take pride in helping students understand difficult material.

A Little Bit About Me...

My passion is learning and my hope is to inspire in my students a genuine love of learning and to help them gain the skills necessary to become lifelong, independent learners. I believe all children can learn in an atmosphere that is encouraging, supportive and structured in such a way as to challenge without discouraging. I believe in authentic learning and in teaching through discovery. I have acquired many different techniques and tools over the years and have learned that there is no one style of teaching that fits all. One reason I enjoy tutoring is that I can take the time to truly know the student and to help them discover which tools work best for them. I strive to make a difference in each of my student's lives.
I have been actively involved in the field of education for 26 years as a high school English teacher, an elementary reading teacher, and as a school librarian. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I do not believe in hierarchy. I think the teacher-student or tutor-student relationship should be one of equal footing and mutual discovery. This means asking questions together and seeking out the fundamental answers to questions. I think all children and adults deserve a place to learn about themselves and the world around them where they are free to ask any question and challenge any assumption. This does not mean I am a push over and cannot create structure in a lesson. I just strive to do it in a way that does not discourage creativity and authentic discovery about themselves and the world.
I attended college at three different schools, on athletic scholarship in two of them. I earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Philosophy and BA in Political Science. After graduating I spent one semester teaching sciences at an outdoor based alternative middle and elementary school just ... read more
