Certified Special Education Teacher

I'm a certified special education teacher that has taught in MCPSS for over a year. I have worked with kids of all abilities and I would be thrilled to tutor your child and support them in the educational system. I have a library of resources to pull from while working with students. I truly understand about individualized tutoring services. When one technique is not working, then you search for another strategy. For kids with disabilities, you have to continually be thinking outside of the box.

My style of teaching is more of a participant style. I enjoy when students contribute to class discussions. It brings joy to my heart when a child finds a task complicated and eventually succeeds. Many of the children that I have taught often call me. It is my belief, that as an educator I must be creative and see each child as an individual and not as a group. As an educator, I am responsible for not only teaching students but for coaching, mentoring, tutoring and inspiring young minds to achieve greatness.
I have taught both adults and youth. I was instrumental in assisting adults in obtaining their high school diploma and college degree. As a youth teacher, I was responsible for teaching students to read and as a result of their improving in this area; I was promoted to a teacher’s position. I have tutored students on an individual basis, and a result they were able to be prom ... read more

As a person with much patients and a broad understanding of general knowledge, I have attained the ability to help others learn as well. Being blessed with excellent teachers in my past, I have grasped all the subjects well enough to help other students achieve high marks as well. I received an AA degree in General Education and a BFA in Interior Design. It was me the other students would come to when they needed help understanding math problems, writing essays or developing design skills. Arousing a desire within the student has always been the key for my success as a tutor.
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 challenge students to overcome their difficulties and do not allow them to persist repeatedly in ignorance and misunderstanding. Rather, I require my students to learn and extensively practice even the most basic concepts until they are no longer problems, and this allows the students to move on to more complicated concepts, but, as needed, I patiently explain any concepts that are unclear. I remedy errors in morphology by requiring repetition of the correct forms, and by requiring the students to convert certain words into their other forms, reinforcing the various attributes of each form. I also make sure each sentence is read and understood in the order in which the sentence is written so that it can be understood as it is written.
I have studied Latin for 7 years, and have earned 27 credit hours at the collegiate level in the field with a 4.0 average in those courses in La ... read more

I am young, enthusiastic, understanding, and patient. I am passionate about teaching, and it is my foremost goal to direct students toward academic success. I think of teaching as a fine art, founded upon a set of testable objectives. Each and every student is capable of learning, but no one specific formula can guarantee that learning will actually occur. Instead, the process by which it is accomplished is unique to the individual student; personal learning style must be critically evaluated in the development of any effective tutoring plan. A dynamic relationship should also exist between teacher and student, since ideas must be exchanged, discussed, understood, remembered, and applied.
I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Sciences, with honors, and am currently working toward the completion of a Ph.D. in Basic Medical Sciences. My scientific training supports ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all children have what it takes to learn and work to the best of their ability. As their teacher it's my job to make sure I bring the best out in them. I loved all students and they know how special they are to me. I have taught first and second grade for 5 years and am still in close contact with a number of my former students. If they've been in my classroom, they know Mrs. Raybon loves them and has made sure they learned as much as they could in the short time I had them.
I teach according to the individual. Whatever it takes to make sure the student gets it, is what I do. I am patient, easy going, and kind. My goal is to provide the best education possible and love them while I am doing it. I teach through discovery and provide a constructive approach to learning meeting each individuals needs. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the a ... read more

My lessons are student-centered and driven by mastering basic skills, in an effort to acquire the skills necessary to take on more challenging academic material. It is my belief that children are subject to many advantages in today's classroom with the integration of technology and interactive learning. However, with so many children spending excessive time watching TV, playing video games, etc., it is difficult for the classroom setting to compete. I believe that tutors can help bridge the gap in information that students may have had during the school year.
As a current teacher in Mobile County, I have the adequate skills and training necessary to tutor students in grades 3-6 in math, reading, and science. I have two Bachelor’s degrees, a Master of Education and I am currently pursuing an educational specialist degree. During the last few years, I have taught 6th grade, two years ... read more

I have graduated from two technical courses in the air force and was a distinguished graduate from both. I graduated with honors from the Air Traffic Control Operators Course in 1983 with a 97% average. I was selected for instructor duty in 1986 and received extensive training on various instructing and teaching modalities along with counseling techniques. I enjoyed teaching so much that I went back to that profession, once again teaching for the air force from 2001-2003. I left that job to serve in Afghanistan as a civilian contractor as an air traffic controller and Chief Air Traffic Control Training. I decided to continue my education and am three months away from receiving my degree in Computer Electronics Engineering and presently hold a 3.98 GPA.
My experience in the air force has served me well. My style of teaching is to learn a little background including areas of interest ... read more
