My teaching style is different for every student. I love finding what is going to work for each student. I am a firm believer in individualized lesson plans. I have experience working with ages 5-20. I have worked with students in reading and spelling for 5 years. Many of these children were diagnosed with dyslexia and/or ADHD. In addition to working with students in reading I also have 2 years experience in tutoring in accounting courses! Though these two subjects might appear unrelated I am passionate about both and enjoy the variety. Please feel free to ask me any questions. Thanks!

I have worked with kids of all abilities and I would be thrilled to tutor your child and support them in the educational system. I have a library of resources to pull from while working with students. I truly understand about individualized tutoring services.

Providing a calm and productive learning environment is my goal for each every student. By holding high expectations for learning, I strive to build confident critical thinkers. Through teacher-student interactions, it is important to guide and direct students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives, and encouraging them to develop criteria to make informed choices. Overall, my goal is to help children to have the ability to grow as independent, diligent students who are able to take initiative and responsibility in their learning.

I have taught both adults and youth. I was instrumental in assisting adults in obtaining their high school diploma and college degree. As a youth teacher, I was responsible for teaching students to read and as a result of their improving in this area; I was promoted to a teacher’s position. I have tutored students on an individual basis, and a result they were able to be promoted to the next grade. My style of teaching is more of a participant style. I enjoy when students contribute to class discussions. It brings joy to my heart when a child finds a task complicated and eventually succeeds. Many of the children that I have taught often call me. It is my belief, that as an educator I must be creative and see each child as an individual and not as a group. As an educator, I am responsible for not only teaching students but for coaching, mentoring, tutoring and inspiring young minds to a
