I enjoyed all four years of my teaching. I taught fourth, fifth and Physical Education. Prior to that I substituted for two years as well. During substituting for three school districts, I worked with kindergarten through twelfth grade and special education students. Tutoring and mentoring students are my specialty. Mathematics, reading and writing are the areas that I have tutored the most in. Positive reinforcement, motivation and encouragement are what I believe in. Finding the extra way to explain a task or principle is rather beneficial. Whether it is visual, hands on, auditory or applying to every day life, it just takes that special spark to light up a room. Seeing a child progress is quite remarkable!

I have several years of teaching for church groups. In addition I have served as a substitute teacher at a private Catholic High School. In addition, as a research assistant in graduate school I have had to edit numerous scholarly articles.

Children need to be encouraged and given positive re-enforcement when they succeed as well as when they are having difficulty.

My background in psychology helps me better understand people and I am very extroverted. My B.S. is in psychology and I graduated with highest honors. Additionally, I took classes in almost every subject area since I was unsure what career path I wanted to take. I have experience with chemistry, anatomy, physiology, psychology, microbiology, and all levels of math up to and including calculus. I spent some time in high school tutoring math and science. On the GRE I scored in the top ten percent as far as writing skills are concerned. I have a great deal of experience writing research papers and spent about a year in a research lab.

I have a strong interest in mathematics in the areas of algebra, geometry, and statistics. I have completed 9 credits of statistics and 6 credits of algebra. I can also tutor in business and psychology. I have been working with in academia for the past 3 years and am working towards becoming an adjunct-faculty at the local college. I find enthusiasm and interest in the subject taught is very important.
