Taught my own children from Kindergarten through 12th grade. After graduating from University of Memphis, I moved to California and taught in a Montessori preschool until beginning my own family.

I plan to continue until all have graduated. My teaching style includes more than one style because different children learn in different ways. For example, a child may learn by doing(I would use the demonstration-performance method). Another may be an auditory learner where I would use the lecture method, on a child's age level of course.

I believe the first step in academic success is building self esteem and confidence. Learning should be engaging and fun. My students come to enjoy learning and gaining confidence as they grow and become better readers. I have taught first through third grades for many years. Most of my experience is with elementary students. I now work with principals and teachers across the state to improve classroom instruction. I have also worked specifically with third graders to prepare them for the State Test. Each summer I am involved with the Read to Succeed camp where I work with students who have not passed the third grade end of the year test. The students retake the test after our camp and the vast majority pass and are promoted to the fourth grade. My schedule is very flexible.

I gained great confidence through my mother in college and I would like to pass on her encouragement to others who may need it. I believe every child can reach his or her goal if only they can get the correct guidance. Anyone can be a mentor for a child. I strive on being a great mentor for anyone who needs encourage

Through several college degrees, I have taken extra courses in English; I have enjoyed learning the correct way of writing, proper grammar usage, and how sentences are successfully crafted. The area of "words" fascinate me, and I have continued improving my knowledge of the English language over the years. When I was earning my Juris Doctorate, I received the grade of "A" on many papers along with winning the coveted "Highest Grade Award" in my Legal Research and Writing class. Besides assisting numerous colleagues in the past, whether at work or in school, I tutored in a literacy program many years ago. When I have "tutored" fellow colleagues and students in the past, I have learned that one must be creative in their teaching so that every person can learn in their own way. Creativity is the key to helping a person understand, even playful games have their place in teaching. I have a
