When I teach I want to engage the student or students. I want to grab their interest and keep it. This requires two main things of the teacher: he must know the subject well and he must have enthusiasm for the subject. This almost ensures that the student will enjoy being taught. I like an informal style, especially as classes get smaller. University of the South, B.A., Major in English Literature, Minor in American History, Minor in Physics University of Mississippi, J.D.

I am a student of history and believe that knowledge acquisition comes from interest and enthusiasm on the part of the learner. This interest comes from having an instructor who them selves is a learner. A partnership in the tasks being presented usually results in the student wanting to understand the information and making connections. To promote critical thinking I present the material in a global manner, allowing the learner to relate the information/skill to the real-world. Creative, innovative, and interesting lessons are my forte. I am experienced in providing a constructivist-based approach to knowledge acquisition. Hands-on lesson promote student involvement and increase the development of student responsibility towards their education. I have found that a cross-curriculum approach to the material being presented fosters true understanding and relevance.

My passion for education blossomed while volunteering as a tutor with Somali refugee children in Pittsburgh, PA during college. I worked with families in their homes to develop English reading, writing, and speaking skills. After graduating with a B.A. in History and Political Science I joined Teach For America, where I taught first grade for two years and substitute taught pre-kindergarten through fifth grade for one year. A major focus while teaching first grade was developing literacy skills and instilling a love and enthusiasm for reading and writing in my students. The most important thing about my teaching style is that I believe every child can achieve academic excellence and can be interested in learning. I believe that it is up to me, as a teacher or a tutor, to engage the student(s). A huge part of this is being very transparent about where the student starts, what our goals ar

I like working with children hands on and gaining a better understanding of what works best for them. Whether it be with visuals, paper, using words; I am up to meet the needs of the child to fulfill their highest potential. Also, I like learning from the child's response to see what works best and what doesn't as a best practices. I have coursework in special education and human development and family studies that has prepared me to work with children and families. My volunteer and paid experience as a substitute and child care teacher has allowed me to apply this knowledge directly to working with this group. In addition, I have mentored high school youth in the areas of scholarship and community service. As a freelance grant writer and nonprofit management professional, my reading and writing skills would be invaluable to young children.

My teaching style is thus: First engage the student about what subject he likes, engage in small talk and then tutor the assignments. ALways praise the student and point his or her strong abilities and plus tell the student they can do this assignment. First I let the student try the assignment and then I will jump in and help.

My teaching style is to engage the student in learning. I begin by a review of the material to see how much the student knows. Then I get the student involved in learning by practicing. From my experience, repitition will not only help the student to remember the information but help them to become a more dedicated student. I believe in positive reinforcement and encouragement. I believe a student can achieve anything if they put their minds to it because I was one who also needed help to achieve my goals. As a student at the University of Houston I earned a scholarship each semester through the Scholar Enrichment Program. It was based off of a students academic performance each semester and it would require me to tutor other students in classes I performed well in. I tutored students in General Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Physics. I also have a minor in history an

My life has been filled with teaching and working with children. At the age of ninteen as a very young mother I felt a sense of duty in teaching my children how to achive higher than they can ever have imagined. I love to see the look of awe on their faces when they realize that they to can understand which ever subject that slips them. The rest is simple practice, practice, practice seals the deal. Then stride to the next hurdle. Each child has a different way of learning things. I find many times that a child can have to much or to little of something in their lives which interrupts their natural thought pattern. I believe if a child achieve good balance threw self disipiline that child will hold the key for successful learning. As an Graduate of Applied Science of Industrial Instrumentation.

I feel the experienced gained as a student in the field, gave me the security to succees when I graduated. I taught kindergarten and first grade and I am currently working at an administrative position at an Educational NGO. I feel I have gained important skills and I would like to go back with working directly with kids. It is truly a vocation. I am an advocate of positive reinforcement. I believe all children can achieve their potential in different ways. Every student has a unique personality and strengths that can be used to develop their understanding and knowledge. The teacher has the power to set the environment and guide the student but it is in the opportunities and experiences that the teacher allows the student to explore, that each student strats t
