My experience and expertise provide me with the ability to clearly and simply explain government concepts so the students understand the roles of government in our society.

A Little Bit About Me...

Being exposed and working at different school districts and states allowed me to learn different styles, therefore, I was able to evaluate what works and adapt the techniques to my own style. Education allowed me to learn techniques and I do claim that I was successful leading a classroom and learning was achieved by my studens. I do believe that education is always open for improvement. I learned teaching and assessment techniques and I learned to modify teaching style according to students needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I always begin a class with in upbeat, fun atmosphere. I sometimes have powerful, familiar music playing when my students walk into the classroom. (Other students walking by in the hall frequently stop by to see what's going on!) I have a collection of toys and noisemakers that I use in the classroom. My classroom is visually dynamic and inviting. My goal is for my students to enter to learn with smiles on their faces, and anticipation for learning something fascinating. I love to lead them to daily "Aha" moments of discovery. My sense of humor and use of cartoons maintains an involvement high. I strategize with my kids to examine the many different ways to learn, in appreciation of their various learning styles. My students are empowered to question and learn more than required. By building their trust in me, and knowing that I sincerely love being with them, true learning hap ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a dual-major in English Writing and History. These two branches of academia shaped and built my ability to write concise, intellectual, pieces of work. I possess an excellent vocabulary and grammatical skill set, allowing me to properly instruct any individual in writing technical papers, academic papers, poetry, or prose. While I attended Pittsburgh I began to proofread and edit papers for my friends and classmates. My peers felt I was talented enough to begin selling my services, and to this day I instruct others in how to properly write persuasive essays, resumes, cover letters, and the like.
I've worked with a wide array of students; they span from two year old children to non-traditional (i.e. older than usual) college students. I'm extremely patient and considerate, and I have experience interacting with children who ... read more

My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet do not become overwhelming. Since the beginning of the era in which the special education population has began being mainstreamed into regular education classrooms in most schools, I have developed a great practice of differentiated instruction. I also am aware that there are people who are a specific learning style as well as the people that are a combination of any two or three learning styles. That's who I teach for.
I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typic ... read more

I was trained academically at PAFA to draw and paint still life, landscape, the human figure but as a child, my Mother introduced me to painting in the tub with newsprint taped to walls, with tempra paint in baby food jars to express myself. I love teaching young children but have worked with all ages, from tots to elders. I believe in teaching the process so that it is an experience of discovery and I provide a constructivist approach to learning, providing building blocks of information in lessons that provide tools for a strong foundation. I believe in teaching people how to learn and how to think.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe teaching others a skill or new information is a gift, to both myself and the student. When the light goes off in their head, and the "I got it!" look comes across their face, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I am very patient, and understand that each student learns at their own speed. Additionally, I know that each student is different, which will sometimes require a new teaching technique. I believe everyone can learn; sometimes it just takes the right teacher for the right student.
I was a teaching assistant for three of my four years at the University of Delaware. I taught courses, as well as tutored students and graded exams. Additionally, I have a great deal of experience in sciences and english, specifically biology and microbiology, as well as excellent grammar skills.

I made the career change to become a teacher so that I might impact young lives. I learned how to differentiate my instruction, while teaching at the Middletown Barn Alternative School prior to my earning my certification at Ursinus College. I strive to bring history and culture alive for the student through technology and drawing on my own experience. I make an effort to get to know each student in order to discover how best to bring understanding and engagement with the subject matter. Ultimately the goal is to have a student who is self-motivated and actively learning all the time.
