Elementary Phonics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lampasas, TX

I encourage higher order thinking, and help students learn to become self-directed and independent. Not only will your child develop greater skills and knowledge in each discipline, he/she will develop many specific thinking strategies and skills which they will apply in the classroom and throughout life. My mottos is, "Learning is serious, but that doesn't mean it has to be grim." I believe in making learning exciting, and especially in helping children learn to believe in themselves as successful learners. I have high expectations, and I provide the support they need in order to meet those expectations. It does not take long for a student to realize that they really are smart, then they are ready to take on greater challenges with confidence. I have a Texas Teaching Certificate for K-8, all subjects. In addition to teaching elementary school I taught courses at the University o

My teaching style is devoted to your child's individual needs. I would use a balanced literacy approach which includes one-on-one reading instruction based on each child's developmental level, includes phonics and word work, comprehension, fluency, and vocabulary development. I taught 1st Grade Gifted and Talented for 4 years in Baytown, Texas as a self-contained classroom teacher. I was the Team Lead teacher the last two years. All 4 of those years, I also tutored several students in reading. I am also currently pursuing my Master's of Education in Curriculum and Instruction with a Literacy Emphasis from The University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). I am in my practicum class now, have two classes over the summer and my Master's Degree will be completed. After receiving my Master's Degree, I will pursue a Master Reading Teacher Certification as well as a Reading Specialist Certification.

While pursuing my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology, I volunteered my time at the Boys and Girls Club of America and tutored students of all ages in reading, math, science, and social studies. I am currently completing an alternative certification program for Texas teacher certification, and I am highly qualified to teach early childhood to sixth grade. Every child can learn, it just takes a good teacher to help make that happen. A teacher must assess each student for their learning style, ability, and readiness. I want to get to know my students so that I can better understand what motivates them to succeed and develop positive relationships. I care about all students and want to make a difference.

I am a certified teacher in the state of Texas. I have, for the past ten years, been tutoring and teaching Latin and English/Language Arts. I taught high school for two years in Pennsylvania, and for the last two years, I have taught Latin and English here in Texas. I graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in Classics and a minor in English. I was an honors student in Classics, and I was chosen to be the departmental tutor in Greek. In addition to maintaining more than full time hours as a student, I tutored students in Latin independently for free. My passion was to help students learn Latin even if they couldn't afford to pay me. My style of teaching is entirely dependent upon the needs of each student. My abilities and skills are highly adaptable to the needs each student faces. I believe that each student has a certain type of intelligence. Some will be gifte
