I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.
As an College graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Addiction and BS in Psychology, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addit ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children and with adults. I especially enjoy watching a child's eyes light up when something makes sense. I value the constructivist approach to learning and encourage learning through exploration. I provide as comfortable a learning atmosphere as possible, knowing that students learn best when the least stressed. I am confident each student can learn and succeed; I am determined to find the most effective way to connect a student with new skills and understanding, knowing that each person has a way he or she learns best.
My original interest was teaching instrumental music. Although I changed majors and ultimately graduated with a BS in Computer Science, I have continued my interest in teaching, first by volunteer tutoring during college and later by helping adults learn to speak English. I eventually took an intensive summer course in teaching English to spea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a license in Elementary Education with an endorsement in middle school math. I am currently attending WSU for a Masters in Counseling. I have been working for the Wichita Public Schools since 2006. I have tutored at the Wichita Children's Home helping over 40 students earn their high school diplomas.
I love working with children and believe every child can not only learn, but enjoy learning. I like making learning fun. Some obstacles in learning are based on one's feelings about learning or about a particular subject. Sometimes asking the right questions can unblock the obstacle, leading to a better awareness of one’s abilities and knowledge. I have helped students find their inner strength and a better self awareness of what it takes for them to succeed.

I believe in "polarized" teaching style. I believe in addressing attention (discovering what motivates the learner), relevance (creating links between the instruction and the learner experiences), confidence (providing learning objectives up front so it is understood what will be learned) and satisfaction (providing relevant educational experiences that will last well beyond the diploma or certificate completion) of the students. To design class sessions with active participation, variety in delivery format, and problem solving activities all to help the learner in the processing and application of course content in creative and original ways.
I graduated as a senior scholar with a double-degree of AB/BSE in English from the Philippine Normal University, a regionally-accredited state university in the United States. Also, I have earned twenty-one credit units in MA, Education, majo ... read more
