Since I have so much experience, I understand that my style must reflect the learning style of the student. I accommodate your child's needs. As a veteran of more than 30 years in the field of education, I have taught all grade levels, 1-12, worked for two universities, and spent nine years as an educational specialist for America's Choice and Pearson Learning teaching administrators and teachers. My specialty is identifying the reason(s) students aren't achieving and providing the instruction necessary to mitigate or eliminate this barrier. My sole focus is the success of the student.

I have been a volunteer tutor at a local elementary school during their aftercare program. I have also been a mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Memphis to a first grader who had trouble with math (adding,subtracting, and multiplication). I have also helped fellow peers study for tests and the Reading and English sections of the ACT. I believe a hands on approach to teaching a subject is the best way for a child to succeed. I believe that flashcards as well as games help younger children succeed in mastering a subject. Making a subject fun is key to helping a child tackle a tough subject. For older kids, practice tests are very helpful as well as flashcards. Encouragement and support is also an important part of mastery.

My teaching style includes using the strengths of the interests of the child in teaching. To aid my child to read, I used his favorite card game (Yugioh) to aid him. I am hands on while teaching. I make sure that the learning is not boring. I will use card games to aid in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. I use a combination of words plus visuals to aid the learner. I will write down the formulas or work out a problem for the student so that the example can be followed on other problems. I use acronyms for teaching as well. I also use these aids to help with memorization of facts. I have completed my Bachelors and Masters degree in Accounting. At this time, I work with disabled clients to help facilitate their inclusion into the community. We are required to complete 17 hours of education each year relating to the laws and regulations for the services of the

My style of teaching is very associative. I like to take any material that my student is trying to learn and present it in a way they can relate to, or may apply to them directly. The different lifestyles of our students affect their learning behaviors. A child who has never been more than ten miles from home and whom has never seen a play, may find it difficult to relate to William Shakespeare. A child who lives in financial distress may find it easier to understand mathematic principals if they apply them to money. I am a bi-linual tutor. I have worked for the migrant education program in the federal programs department of the Jonesboro Public School district since August of 2008. Before that I taught ELL courses for Brookland Public Schools. I was adult education tutor for student support services at Arkansas State University and East Arkansas Community College.

During my master's studies I was asked to share my research in International Relations in Little Rock, St. Louis, Dallas, Waco, New Orleans, and Honolulu. Upon receiving my master's degree from Arkansas State University, I received a position as an adjunct instructor in the political science department for Paragould. I speak professional level French in which I am pursuing a second bachelor's degree in and I also speak conversational spanish which I continue to study at the collegiate level. My teaching style is to go head on with my students and to address every weak point possible. It is crucial to understand how the student both feels and interprets information. If a student does not seem to comprehend using a certain teaching method then it is imperative to find a different way to present the course materials. I have been very successful with my teaching methods and have re

I myself like to learn visually and hands on. I have tried many styles of learning to see what works for me. I record lectures, take my own notes, like to question myself while I'm studying for a test. I think connecting something to something you

My teaching style involves the student not only in the curriculum but also in the world around them. I enjoy helping students to relate what they have learned to outside the classroom. For example when teaching about a significant event in history, I challenge the student to think about how they would have thought about it in the past and how they can relate it to current events. I believe that every student has the capability to achieve great things both academically and for their community if given positive encouragement and an opportunity to encounter new ideas. As a graduate of Arkansas State University with a degree in history, I achieved an excellent rapport with the faculty and the administration in the pursuit of my degree. I have been previously awarded an ROTC scholarship for leadership and academic potential, as well as a scholarship from the Dean's discretionary budget to sup

I believe in starting where someone is. I spend the first meeting getting to know the student, what he or she doesn't know, and what they need to know to be successful. I believe everyone is an individual and must be taught with this in mind. Each person is their own classroom, bringing with them their unique experiences to the learning situation. I like to find the person's strengths and focus on allowing this to enable the person to move up. I have worked as a special education instructor for Arkansas public schools for over 16 years, and enjoy helping a student discover the potential within themselves. I have taught 3-point paragraph and essay writing in both the EXPOSITORY and NARRATIVE forms, both important components of preparing for the state Benchmark exams. I am able to see things from a global perspective in terms of the stringent requirements kids have to strive for not o

I have a diverse educational background, which includes studies in the area of social work, psychology, sociology, and education. I graduated in 2003 from the University of Arkansas with a B.A. in Social Work with minors in both psychology and sociology. In December of 2009, I graduated from University of Central Arkansas with a Master of Arts in Teaching. I will begin my Educational Specialist degree in school counseling this spring. Currently, I am teaching seventh grade pre-algebra and math at Marion Middle School. I love working with all children, but I particularly enjoy middle school aged students. This is a time in their life where they are easy influenced, and I believe I can be a positive influence in this very important time in their life. I am patient, and believe every child has the right to have academic success. As a teacher, I believe it is my responsibility to help each s

I love working with children. I have 3 of my own and I am currently studying for a Master of Science in Higher Education so that I can teach. I would love to teach college courses, but my main focus is teaching elementary students. I think it would be easier for me to tutor younger kids versus high shcool children. Even though that's where my experience is at, I just love working with smaller kids. I've volunteered at preschools and kindergarten classes and I absolutely love to work with them. I worked as a tutor coordinator for the YMCA tutoring children from the ages of 12-16. I helped them in basic studies to ensure that they had a grade of a C or better. My goal is to open up an after school program so that I can help students who may need tutoring after school get the grades that they need to pass on to the next level. Working with children is one of my passions and I hope that one
