A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring and teaching children since high school in my Teacher's Academy class at Lakota East High School. I then went on to study Education at the University of Dayton and graduated in May of 2013 with a degree and teaching lisence. In the fall I will be employed with Dayton Public Schools. I have had experience with both elementary school children and middle school children both in and outside of the classroom. I did my student teaching in a 7th grade Social Studies classroom. I have also volunteered in South Dakota on a Native American Reservation as a week long tutor for Native American children.
My teaching style is one that is student centered. When I first meet a child, my priority becomes to learn what teaching style best fits them. I do this through the use of Howard Gardener's Multiple Intelligences. I hold high expectations for all students and reward effort. ... read more

I will tailor my teaching style to fit your needs. First, I will need to know what you are studying as well as your goals. Then we will work together to discover what methods will work the best for you to learn. From there, I will work on methods to use during our time together to help you learn. Given the diverse topics I can tutor in, it is difficult to say what my precise methods would be. I will work to give you the tools to study on your own.

More About This Tutor...

I like keeping kids engaged. Teaching isn't just about making sure a student knows the facts, but also about helping them develop a passion for learning. Explaining information in several different ways helps individuals as well as groups learn to the fullest, and allows the students to think about subjects in several different ways.
I volunteered in high school and college tutoring students to read. In high school I was also a music tutor, and a general tutor. Holding a degree in English and History has taught me a lot about many areas of learning that could be used to teach kids effectively.

When teaching, I consider all learning modalities and styles. In my experience,visual and tactile approaches tend to have the highlest level of success. Technology such as learning games, computers, and etc. are useful tools in teaching. Hands on activites along with munipulatives and supplemental materials are excellent additions to validate that the skill or lesson taught is being comprehended.

I have a passion for working with students and helping them further develop the skills necessary to enhance their quality of life and love for learning. I am professional, personable, and patient.

I think teaching style should revolve around the needs of the student. The last person I tutored, I created worksheets and practical exercises that served to help him learn the material. Worksheets worked well since he was studying for a final exam. The music videos and lyrics I told him to watch and read, were all meant to reinforce the grammatical lesson. In his case, when we met in person we did oral and speaking practice in addition to reviewing the worksheets. That is just one example, and I think that it really does revolve around the specific needs and goals of the student.
I worked for four (4) years at the Columbus Spanish Immersion Academy, I tutored the last couple of years a few high school students in Spanish, I have translated for the VITA tax clinic/Spanish Coalition/Latino Empowerment Outreach Network, and I have served as a translator for Cracker Barrel.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is customized to each student's needs. Because all students have different learning styles my instructions are patterned to maximize that student's particular style. After evaluating each student with a baseline test, goals and objectives based on the state's/district's curriculum are determined. My style is setting high but realistic expectations with rigorous assignments. I also try to have an overdose of encouragement and make the learning session fun time for students.
Teaching has been my last career change. My prior experience has been in the field of manufacturing, maintenance engineering services and construction management. This diversified background was instrumental in equipping me to acquire a technology education certificate in three states (NY, OH, NJ) I am equipped to tutor elementary students in math, the physical sciences and language arts.
