Let's get back down to the basics (Latin, History, Science)

I recieved a BA degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I majored in Classical Civilization (with a Latin Concentration) and History. I have 12 years of experience teaching Latin. The courses I have taught include introductory courses, Latin I, Latin II, and Latin III. 3 years of Life Science teaching experience. 4 years of History teaching experience (as a tour guide and history interpreter) 12 years of experience teaching writing as well.
I like to boil things down to the basics. With Latin and Science that means learning as much as one can about the basic elements and then building one step at a time on those basics. In history, it means learning the story, and telling the story.

Government is one of my top subjects!

I am currently a graduate student at George Mason University completing a degree in Secondary Education. I have 18+ years experience in the Air Force and have homeschooled two of my children using a classical curriculum. I believe each student has a unique learning style and I strive to help students understand how they best learn to achieve their best results. My goal is not only for students to learn the content, but enjoy learning and to gain confidence in their own ability to master content.

Specializing in Out-of-the-Box Thinking for All Learners

I love to incorporate art and sensory experiences into everything I do to really activate the brain. The "Drill and Kill" is very rarely appropriate, so I tailor every approach individually. What works for one student may not work with another. My formal training includes many intervention types and experience with multiple programs and curricula, so I have a large pool from which to draw...then we get creative! My style REALLY aims for those over-arching foundational skills like critical thinking, thought organization, and problem solving. I will also track and provide data to monitor progress and hold myself accountable for effectiveness.
Let's start out by saying I am definitely not your average tutor! Fun is vital to motivation, and I live on the stuff! I have been teaching for over fifteen years in a variety of environments, working in inclusive environments with children ... read more

My comments on tutoring Government : After having a 30+ year tenure working inside the U.S. Federal Gov't, I am more than proficient to teach/tutor all matters relevant to Government studies.

I believe in tutoring so that the child receives feedback and fully understands his/her own limitations and how to overcome obstacles in class. Many children lack positivity in the methodology! I also believe that using art instruction helps children to learn in a more creative manner.
I have over of 30 years of progressive experience in tutoring young children in the elementary years of education in all subject matter areas. My specialty is literacy and reading, but I am also adept in teaching all of the math curricula as well. I also firmly believe that teaching organizational skills and proper research methodologies are very important for the classroom today--and every child needs these skills in order to excel in the classroom and survive. I am also a qualified art teacher in the NOVA area.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a professional historian who also has more than 15 years experience in teaching ESL and standard English courses. While I have been a community college and high school teacher for more than 20 years, I have also worked in non-teaching fields that have enriched the content of my lessons. For example, I have been a Foreign Service Officer, an Escort-Interpreter, a broadcast journalist, and a park ranger.
My teaching style emphasizes active student participation in the learning process.

Government is one of my top subjects!

As a former senior congressional staff, I worked very closely with Members of Congress to ensure the success of their term and their reelection. In addition, I have worked on Gubernatorial and Presidential elections. My experience is not limited to one geographic region of the United States but extends internationally to Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean. Most recently, I worked to help pass the Maryland Dream Act. I trained campaigners to identify, educate and register new voters which resulted in increase voter participation in the Latino, Asian, and African-American communities as well as with newly naturalized citizens and students. Within a 15 week period, I coordinated with local communities, school districts, and non-profits to identify, educate, register and mobilize voters in underserved and underrepresented areas by successfully meeting and exceeding expect ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My greatest strength as a tutor is that I know what it is like to have no knowledge of a foreign language. Thus, I am able to diagnose the particular difficulties a student is having and provide appropriate guidance in resolving those difficulties. I believe in repetition and drills, both written and spoken. In addition, I also believe in using the target language as much as possible. I will encourage students to use what knowledge they have of the target language in order to communicate with me. I used to be afraid to speak foreign languages, but several of my teachers were able to create a comfortable enough environment such that I was no longer afraid. I hope to do the same.
My education in international relations and international public affairs has allowed me to gain knowledge in the social sciences and foreign languages. As an undergraduate student, I studied and worke ... read more

Although I am a native French speaker I took the highest French classes while I was still in college. I took this class because I wanted to keep up with my writing and oral French. The French classes that I took have help me to keep with my french.
I love teaching people French. When I was in high I worked as a French teacher aid and that when I feel in love with teaching French to people. While I was in college I worked as a French tutor for 4 years. I am patient, easy going, and considerate person. Trust me I knew the stress and frustration that arise when you are learning a new language. I learn to speak and write English the US. I believe everybody can learn a new language.

I have a proven success rate in assisting my students in excelling on standardized tests. In the 2007-2008 school year my students achieved double digit gains on the MSAs (Middle School Assessments). Also during my experience I have moved basic and proficient students to advanced levels on the standardized tests and helped the students that I have tutored in the past and currently tutor advance in the subjects of Math (Algebra, Geometry and Basic Mathematics) Science, Social Studies and English from failing to grades that show proficiency.
I am actually in the process with my students, their victories are my victories. I want my students to be proud of the work that they have done and the achievements that they have made. I give my students the information, I show them how to apply the information through modeling, I practice with them and then I release them to apply the tec ... read more

Education is like a meal ticket. Children need to eat, breed and have a thirst for knowledge. As teacher, students need to be taught knowledge as information is received for food nouirshment for their bodes. Having a thirst for education lead to opportunities for their children to be able to provide for oneself and able to put food on the table for others.
I have been teaching/tutoring for over nine years for public schools and citywide programs. I provided appropriate educational instructions though a combination of direct and indirect services to meet specific needs of students with disabilities in the least restrictive environment.
