I am a very energetic and enthusiastic person, so working with kids was always what I wanted to do. I love the relationships that develop and how the relationships affect the student performance. I am a very hands on, real life learner myself so I tend to do that with my students. Overall, I want to make kids excited to take ownership over their learning. When they feel like it is their own, they invest more in to it, making every thing they do more successful.

A Little Bit About Me...

While I have no direct experience teaching in a classroom or one on one setting, I have been a mentor for over 8 years. As a mentor I have worked with young ladies between the ages of 11-20. I have assisted in helping them to learn memorization, public speaking, planning and fulfilling commitments. What I have learned from this when working one on one is that each child has a different way of thinking and learning. When you take the time to determine the best way to teach a child you can easily find the best way to teach and the child can learn anything as well as being more willing to learn and reach their full potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

I employ a number of different tactics while teaching. My main focus is using open-ended questions which help students understand not only what the correct answer is, but also why the answer is correct. I am focus-driven and work to set objectives. I will focus on an objective until it is understood completely. I have a strong ability to relate concepts into real-life situations which helps students to retain the information they gain.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with kids and watching them learn and grow. It amazes me every year to see students who don't believe in themselves grow into kids who see their full potential. The light in their eyes is priceless. My approach to teaching is along the lines of the "Love and Logic" program. I believe that when children are offered choices, they feel more empowered to make decisions that are best for their futures and who they want to become. I also believe that modeling what I expect is the best way to achieve positive results in student behavior and work ethic. Students will always see me working hard!

I thoroughly enjoy working with the elderly population and children as well. If given the opportunity, I would prefer to work with older clientel. I am a very patient, and reserved person when it comes to teaching others new skills. I have realized that not every individual will learn at the same pace or have the success rate as others. It is important to take each person on a individual basis, and if we work together we will meet the goals that are wanted by both of us.
