Finding learning solutions one learner at a time!

I believe each student has an optimum learning style and I try to match my teaching strategies to that style. When working with adults, I try to establish motivations for learning first and then move on to the next step - how best to master the infomration or skill.
I have 25 plus years experience in teaching children and adults. I am currently working on my PhD in education with an emphasis on curriculum and instruction. I enjoy working one-on-one as well as in a classroom setting. Since I am completing my current studies online, I have a good understanding of online learning and studying style. I am a firm believer that everyone can learn and I love helping unlock the key to learning for someone struggling with a problem. There is no stupid question - only those that have not yet been asked.

I begin instruction with an individual student by assessing his/her preferred learning style. To the extent possible, instruction proceeds through that style. I utilize the individual interests of the students to improve their reading skills. This has proved successful even with students previously thought to have already reached their full potential. In areas other than reading, I attempt to engage the student by connecting the subject matter to their own lives. In addition to improving academic skills, my goal is to improve self-esteem and build the student’s confidence in his/her ability to learn and to perform.
I have 20 years of experience teaching children with special needs from preschool through high school. Although I have taught Reading, Composition, Math, American History, Biology, Earth Science, English, Civics and book education for Driver’s Education, my strengt ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my junior and senior year in college, I TA’ed a finance class called options pricing for two semesters. Options pricing was a difficult subject. I worked very hard to receive an A- for the course, which turned out to be my favor. I had insight to the intellectual hurdles other students had to overcome to master the material. So, teaching them came very naturally. In addition, I abandoned the lecture format for a very interactive teaching format. This allowed the students to ask many questions and allowed me to gage the level of comprehension from in the students real-time.
Tutored inner-city and disadvantaged students in elementary English and math for 1 year. TA’ed undergraduate finance class, options pricing, for 1 year.

More About This Tutor...

As a goal oriented person, I started out with an Associates in Business Administration, the B.S. in Accounting and finally an MBA. My strengths are motivating others, communicating diplomatically, financial analysis, and explaining accounting principles. I come from a long line of teachers, but preferred to get business experience before I finally started living my lifelong dream of becoming a teacher in 2001.
My passion is teaching young adults the basic skills of life. I believe everyone should have both accounting and finance classes to learn to count, save and invest their money! I use the Socratic method of instruction to reach all types of students and to measure comprehension along the way. I love motivating students to jump over their own personal hurdles and celebrate success!

My style is audience-centered and flexible based on several factors, including: - number of students - age and level of expertise/prior background and subject matter proficiency - expectations (for example, adult learners are generally specific goal-oriented, seeking tangible and at times immediate results. - evaluative determination of cognitive anchors -- from what basis of understanding can subject matter be approached that will provide the best platform for learning and discovery.

As an ambitious doctoral candidate and highly motivated life-long learner, I am currently focused on academia and all that it entails.

Additionally, I have three certificates in writing (Writing, Technical, and Creative), a certificate in institutional research, and a certificate in university teaching.
