I believe that all students regardless of race, ethnicity or socio-economic status, are deserving of a wholistic education. This wholistic approach would include an education that will allow each student to fully discover themselves, their strengths and weaknesses, and benefit from necessary real world/ life instruction. Furthermore, this type of approach would expose students to cultures and experiences that they otherwise would not have the opportunity to come across. I believe it is essential in a successful teaching environment to maintain healthy relationships with all the students, parents, and other teachers with whom you work with. I believe that active learning is an important aspect of a successful classroom. I think that by encouraging my students to think actively and critically through the question-and-answer process, they will be continuously motivated to seek their own an

I am very creative by nature and a visual learner. I come with the ability to draw and teach through out of the box tangible ways as well as use traditional methods. I am patient but have high expectations for every student I encounter and push them to succeed. I can empathize with students having difficulty in school but never let them settle for less.

While pursuing my Master of Arts at Ohio University, I worked as a long-term substitute teacher as a Title 1 Reading Specialist. I enjoyed this work immensely and focused on grades 1-5. In these tri-weekly sessions, we practiced our reading skills and built our vocabulary. During the 2008-2009 school year, I tutored 4th & 5th graders in reading at IPS #78. This tutoring program was offered through the United Way of Central Indiana's ReadUp program, which encourages reading skills. In grades 1-3 we learn to read. Beginning in grade 4, we read to learn. My professional background in not-for-profit fundraising has allowed me to use my excellent communication skills - both speaking and writing - on a daily basis. I value education and spend most of my leisure time reading novels. I would like to continue to educate local youth to improve their reading skills and encourage of lif

I also tutored children in reading in their homes and other public places. I received much recognition from my parents there as well for helping their children to achieve higher reading scores and better self esteem. I truly enjoy working with children!

Building the self esteem in children, and developing rapport with my students has proven to give me an upper hand in achieving growth in the academic areas I tutor.

My first priority when working one-on-one with a student is to establish a positive connection. This cultivates trust and helps them to open up and show me what they really need help with. During instruction, I use humor to retain attention and profuse amounts of praise to build self-esteem. In terms of instruction, my experience allows me to break down difficult concepts and explain them in new and interesting ways. Whenever possible, I use hands-on activities to reinforce learning. I have been working in education for over 6 years in a variety of settings. In San Francisco, I worked in a small non-profit independent school, an art and theatre-based after school program, and a public alternative school. Currently, I am working at Snacks Crossing in Pike Township. Over these years, I also tutored at the local Sylvan Learning Center. In each setting, I have always gravitated towar
