A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy teaching and working with children. I have a deep-seeded passion for knowledge as well. I have exceptional patience and I am understanding in that individuals have different learning styles. It is my philosophy that it is the teacher's position to adjust to the learning style of the individual to ensure success.
Currently completing my Master's in Social Work with minors in Psychology and Sociology. I am an avid learner in all fields, with a passion for a number of social sciences (including philosophy). I have earned one bachelor degree, BA in Social Work, which has aided in my educational development. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last seven years, I have tutored students, including those with with developmental disabilities, through my work at soc ... read more

I enjoy teaching and there is no greater reward for a tutor than to share knowledge to others and to see students grow in knowledge and confidence. I like to make learning as fun and with as little stress as possible. The environment should be conducive to learning. I try to adapt my style to the way in which the student can learn the most efficiently and most effectively. Encouragement also goes a long way to give the student confidence in their own abilities to succeed at learning.
Education is a key to a high quality of life. I have earned a BS in Chemical Engineering (math, science, chemistry) and a BA in Ministry and Leadership (Bible, management, essay writing). In addition, I lack 3 hours from completing a Master's Degree in Education. My tutoring experience has primarily been with students working to earn their GED. However, I have tutored and mentored several peopl ... read more

I have held informal teaching positions throughout my entire life. I have tutored everything from pre-algebra to Calculus to Piano. I'm currently employed as an after school tutor for middle school students, 6th grade to 8th, and independently tutor on Saturdays.
My style is relaxed and informal, but effective. School already provides enough structure, and with a relaxed mind, information can be processed more easily. 1 hour sessions multiple times a week is the best way for the information to sink in.

In conclusion, I think that I can still be successful in teaching. I however, need to find what area that I can be most successful at. I think that with my non-traditional training and experience, that a similar position would give me the opportunity to be most successful. One thing that I have thought a great deal about these past few weeks, is that I am entering middle age and must be a success at something. In the past, I have found the most enjoyment and fulfillment working with special needs and incarcerated students. I hope that this time, t hat I can be more persistent, responsible, and realistic in my teaching and counseling career.
Since my previous experience has been working with fairly non-traditional students, I would like to find a similar position. I have applied for several positions that have opened up in public school ... read more
