Social Studies is found in every text we read. I enjoy teaching students geography, different cultures, Oklahoma history, and background of the United States. I believe in patriotism of our country and teaching values, morals, and respect. In order to appreciate the world in which we live a student must understand the past, present and the future history and how it applies to our everyday life. Overall all we learn together to appreciate our differences in a mult-cultural society. I spend a lot of time teaching small group interventions which focuses on the Reading Sufficiency criteria that is mandated by the Oklahoma State Department of Education. I have also worked with many Gifted and Talented students preparing them for Writing Contests. My passion is encouraging students to look forward to the Core Curriculum Test.

Depending on the students learning style and the subject, my teaching style will differ. If the student is a visual learner than I will create PowerPoints and other visual aids to help them. If the student is kinesthetic than I may create a project for them to do (if the parent is ok with it), or I may have them interact more during the tutoring than with the visual learner. Lastly, if the student is an auditory learner than I will create/find videos for them to understand the material or create a song. Whatever way your child learns the best I will tailor an experience just for them. I have tutored many students in math, and a few students in English in the past. I am always able to adapt to how the student learns, and help them understand the material. I have worked with students from the age of 7 to the age of 15, from elementary English to Algebra 2, I have made it so the student can

A reflective style of teaching best describes my approach. Getting to know each student’s personality and their strengths and weaknesses will guide my method. A reflective style incorporates the teacher’s knowledge of the subject with what she knows about the students’ needs. For instance, if your student struggles with creativity but is grammatically strong, exercises in creative writing will be introduced. My tendency is to be strict, but fun; for instance, I tell my students to get their work so we can have fun! I truly look forward to meeting your child so we can start a positive learning experience that will last a lifetime. Deep in the heart of Texas, I earned my English degree at a small college. I was only 21 years old and intimidated by the classroom, so instead of teaching, I entered the workforce. Now I am attending the English Graduate School at OSU, and am excited about

I love to learn and everyone learns differently. I believe that if the information is not being understood one way, then we need to find another way to instruct. Hands-on learning and learning through experience always leaves a lasting impression. Just memorizing facts, although in some cases that is necessary, it is just not fun for all students and just may not stick unless learned in a fun way. I want to make learning fun because no one should ever stop learning. There is just too much out there to sit back and let life pass you by. I attended a preparatory school in Junior High and High School. I then went on to Mississippi College where I obtained a Bachelor degree in Home Economics with an emphysis on Fashion Merchandising. When I became a mom, I decided to home school my kids so that I could take an active part in their education and I could guide them in ways that someone e

I love teaching children of all ages. If children needed extra help we would stay and have small group tutorials after school two or three days a week. Children learn in many different ways. To find a child's interest and build on it can make all the difference in the world. Keeping children's attention and focused on what they are learning is the key to success! I am a firm believer that "All Children Can Learn". Children learn by listening and watching the teacher provide instruction, then actively doing hands-on projects. I am a patient, understanding and very positive person. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I love making a difference in my students'lives. I started off being an elementary aide/tutor in 1988 in public schools. I loved working with children so I decided to go back to college to become a teacher. I attended several colleges in different cities (where
