I am currently employed as a preschool teacher. I have a great passion for teaching and fostering the growth of students I work with. As a stay at home dad for 8 years I have gained a whole new understanding of development of the individual. I believe we are all unique and with that comes an individual learning style. I will work with you to find that and fit it to you individually. I have worked in classrooms interpreting, tutoring, and volunteering for the last 15 years.

ASL/PSE Sign Language Interpreter

"Hands On!"
My experience started, as was true for most interpreters many years ago, with association in the Deaf Community over 40 years ago. Through constant contact and vigorous study I became proficient in American Sign Language and PSE. I worked as a freelance, professional interpreter, off and on, for over 20 years. My experience included educational, vocational, medical, psychological, and community events. In the last 8 years I specialized in Arts Interpreting.

Teaching comes as natural to me as parenting, the key is to set high but achievable goals, as well as firm expectations and boundaries. I have been regarded as a favorite teacher these past three years, and many former students come to visit me on their own time every week. I am patient, easy going, and considerate, but I do expect a level of rigor and effort that pushes my students to do their best. I come from the "Balanced Literacy" school of thought, and have used this practice to foster the growth of all of my students, regardless of their ability level. In addition, I am a pioneer in the use of the "Four Square Writing Method" as an organizational model for the writing process. It has been quite a hit with my students, as well as my colleagues. In these past five years, I have made a difference in the lives of hundreds of students. I can't wait to hit a thousand, ten thousand, and ... read more

I recently graduated with honors from PSU and have a strong desire to work with and help children. I have a passion for literacy and believe it has the power to change lives. I am a single mom of a 14-year-old son and have also volunteered with the African Women’s Coalition to tutor African Refugee children. Working with the children transformed my life and taught me the importance of knowledge.
I am known for my amazing listening skills and empathy. I am a student of Non-violent communication and use it at every opportunity. I love to teach with symbolism and visual techniques. Most of all I find it is important to listen to the child and see how they need to be taught and adjust to their comfort levels. I feel that patience and compassion for different cultures is also key to the student’s success.

Teaching for 11 years in deaf education, I have enjoyed seeing a growth in my students’ math academic progress in middle school and high school level. Most children who are deaf have a delay in language learning. A deaf child who uses sign language, English is not their first language. Math, reading, and writing are the three academic subjects that require special goals with appropriate lesson plans to enhance each student’s weakness in specific areas in mathematics. Math It is my responsibility to understand each student's weakness in math and I need to take them further in understanding this subject area.
Graduating from three different institutions, I have earned two master and a bachelor degrees – MS in Biology and MA in Special Education, and BA in Biology. Math and Science have my main strengths in earning the degrees. Being deaf since birth, I have learned a lot about deaf ... read more

I love teaching and working with children. I love English. I love seeing the expression in the eye of a student who finally understands the concepts. I know what it is like to struggle and get frustrated. In Jr high I was tutored in English and math. Once I understood the concepts there was no stopping me. I would love to help your student the way someone helped me once. I am a patient, kind and loving mother. I believe English is the corner stone of education, and the key to future success. Many times a loving teacher, who takes the time necessary, is all a student needs to succeed.
As an English major I have always enjoyed and excelled in the field. I was top of my class in high school. I also aided in the kindergarten class. I changed my major in college because I knew English was my calling. I have a Bachelor's degree from Warner Pacific. I enjoyed my classes and did extremely ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My undergraduate experience has given me both breadth and depth in academic subjects. The curriculum I've studied at St. John's includes 4 years of language (2 Ancient Greek, 2 French); 3 years of laboratory science (physics, chemistry, biology, electricity & magnetism, etc.); 4 years of mathematics (including geometry, algebra, and calculus); and well as 4 years of "The Great Books of Western Civilization" tutorial wherein I have studied philosophy, literature, theology, political theory, and economics. I feel very comfortable in a tutoring position in most academic subjects spanning from K-college.
I am most familiar with conversation, as a means of relating information and testing understanding. I think that a through understanding in any subject comes about when a student can recognize the important concepts, and how they relate to each other, and speak those concepts in words ... read more
