I began tutoring people when I was in the eigth grade. I decided I wanted to help out at the school across the street from my middle school in Colorado. I enrolled in a class that allowed us to go and assist the teachers and help the students. I fell in love with kids then for sure. I already knew I liked them because I started babysitting when I was 11 and couldn't stop! Then in ninth grade, a neighbor failed kindergarten and asked if I would starting coming over several days a week to help him understand what was being taught. Needless to say, he made it to the first grade! I now have a 17 year old sister who is constantly asking for my assistance in her homework and it is with great pleasure that I assist her. I have a background in Psychology, so I am extremely intuitive with what a person needs regarding their learning style. I am able to adapt my teaching style to their needs. Pati

I have worked with elementary, middle and high school special needs students who struggle with a variety of labels, including ADD/ADHD. That said, consulting for comprehensive study skills and organization for a student with this challenge is not my top skill. I am a warm, compassionate and supportive tutor who has somewhat open-ended expectations for my clients. This habit has enabled me to build relationships with clients that support successful interaction across a fairly long arc of time. I have found the process of tutoring to be enjoyable, have found the work of educating to be a significant means of contributing something to the world that is of value, and generally invite my students to collaborate with me and take ownership of the process and of the results. I have worked with children, teens and adults in a variety of capacities over the course of many years providing many p

Having taught for more than five years as a certified teacher, I feel that I have what it takes to be an educator. Understanding the psyche of the student is of prime significance to me, which helps me in directing the teaching strategies and techniques. In order to let the student realize the significance of learning, I try to design a curriculum that is application based. I prefer that the student understands the purpose behind learning. In order to achieve my goal, I spend quality time in talking and developing an effective communication platform. I avoid doing rote learning. Therefore I make the worksheets and lesson plan as application based as I can. Some techniques and strategies are also employed on occasions.

I have been teaching ADHD?ADD students for three years. I have learned how to teach the child while accommodating their unique learning style and attention span. First, I like to determine a student's learning styles. Not all student learn the same. There are visual learners who learn by looking and writing. There are tactile learners who learn by doing and moving around (hands-on activities), then there are auditory learners who learn from hearing the information. I accommodate all styles int he classroom, but when tutoring, I assess the child by doing a learning style inventory which allows me to determine what style that particular child has. For visual learners, we use the basic paper and pencils, they watch me work. I model problem solving for them and then monitor them. For tactile learners, we pull out materials we can use our hands to work s with. For auditory learners,

I believe strongly that every child has the ability to learn and can experience success in an academic environment given the right tools. I am compassionate and easy going, and believe children learn in different ways. My style of teaching involves whatever means the child needs to experience success. I believe that children learn best from hands on experiences and the patience and encouragement of the teacher. I am not afraid to employ any method needed to help a child. I graduated in June 2009 with my Master’s in Elementary Education as well as my Texas teaching certification. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Family Studies.
