My passion is to help children learn to read and master math skills. Since each child learns differently I have researched multiple teaching strategies, especially for those with learning differences, so that I can find the key to your child’s learning potential. I strive for a low pressure, engaging environment where kids look forward to the next session. I look forward to meeting you and your child.

Learning is serious, but that doesn't mean it has to be grim

I encourage higher order thinking, and help students learn to become self-directed and independent. Not only will your child develop greater skills and knowledge in each discipline, he/she will develop many specific thinking strategies and skills which they will apply in the classroom and throughout life. My mottos is, "Learning is serious, but that doesn't mean it has to be grim." I believe in making learning exciting, and especially in helping children learn to believe in themselves as successful learners. I have high expectations, and I provide the support they need in order to meet those expectations. It does not take long for a student to realize that they really are smart, then they are ready to take on greater challenges with confidence.
I have a Texas Teaching Certificate for K-8, all subjects. In addition to teaching elementary school I taught courses at the Univer ... read more

Elementary Phonics is one of my top subjects! I would almost consider myself an expert on phonics. It is the basics of learning to read. A child must know phonics and sight reading in combination to be able to read, but without the basics of phonics they will never be able to sound out any word for themselves and memorize it.Unfortunately mot schools today only teach one or the other. Which is, I believe why so many of our children can't read now. They are missing one of the 2 fundamentals of reading. I am currently tutoring a 7 yr. old in phonic.phonics and taught both of my children phonics at the same time as I taught them their Alphabet.Which is why, I believe they could both read at a 5th grade level when they entered kindergarten.

Creative teaching for a life time love of learning. I gather everything at my disposal to work with my students and teach to their particular style of learning. I have used basketball to teach social studies. Vegetables to teach science. Peanuts cereal and even M & M's to teach math. A lecture is not always the best method of teaching, but that is what they get in the classroom. A tutor has more flexibility.
3 years experience as an educator in the Copperas Cove Independent School District. 2 years experience working independently as a tutor in all core courses with grades pre-K through 6th grade. I have taught all ranges of students, including special education students with ADHD and both high functioning autism and retardation. In the public school setting the special education classes were all taught together as one. However I have tutored them on a one on one basis more eff ... read more

Helping Others To Accomplish Their Goals

I have worked with various needy students who have been classified as learning disabled, or those who know they are in need for assistance. My experiences vary, as I worked with older children in filling out applications for jobs and to prepare for jobs. I also, have worked with many adults on writing papers for college preparation or with helping their children on writing tasks. I have worked with young children on phonics and reading readiness.
My style is what works for the person I am working with. I am opened to sharing my ideas, but listening to each individual and what works for them.

I teach to the child and motivate them to do better through their natural desires to achieve and to seek approval. I believe in postive reinforcement that is linked to realistic and attainable goals. Building relationship with children and their families is the best tool I know for helping children learn. I see children as a part of the greater systems of family and community. I believe it truly takes a village to raise children and that cooperation among the adults that impact them the most- family, including all members of the extended family, teachers, friends, religious and other community leaders - ensures a child's success. It is my goal to make a positive difference in every child's life.
With over 20 years experience as an educator I have taught, tutored, and trained students from pre-school to adults. I hold an MA in Education and Counseling, a BA in Socialpsychology and a ... read more
