I conduct my lessons with the understanding that every child is an individual. Therefore, they each have their own learning pace and preferences. The first tutoring session, I set aside, to learn more about the child and to conduct an assessment which will help me in determining that child's learning patterns. In addition, I believe in meeting with the parents weekly to discuss their child's progress and to offer advice on how they can help aid their child in their academic success.

I prefer to teach by utilizing real-life situations that are pertinent to the subject matter. In my opinion, when you are able to bring the subject matter to life by making it relevant to the students you are teaching, there is a greater chance that the student will not only understand the information, but remember it long after they leave the classroom. As a classroom aid, I was responsible for implementing the curriculum developed by the teacher. I also had the opportunity to work one-on-one with students who needed additional assistance. As an assistant teacher, my duties included but were not limited to curriculum development, facilitating parent teacher conferences, and accurate record keeping of the student's progress.

I started my teaching career in 1983 at Indiana Girls’ School in Indianapolis, Indiana. After teaching for six years I successfully transitioned into the business world for the next 20+ years. Two years ago I made a decision to return to my roots and completed the additional course work and appropriate testing required by the state of Ohio to renew my teaching license in Biology/Life Sciences. You won’t find anyone willing to work harder or with more life experiences dedicated to teaching in the state. As a former teacher and business leader, I have come to believe in two fundamental ideologies that allow me to focus on what is important in setting up a proper environment for learning. The first is that science must be a major part of education today so that students will be able to function in the world of tomorrow. The second belief is that within every child is a spark waiting to

I have a sincere love for education, and I love to share that love. What people like about me is my interactive and enthusiastic approach to teaching and tutoring. I enjoy working with individuals and small groups in an education setting. I believe in differentiation in education, meaning tailoring the experience to each child's abilities and needs. I also believe in scaffolding, or determining where a student's prior knowledge exists, and then building upon that to bring them up to the current level expected of them. The goal of tutoring should not be to help a student pass a class, but to determine and fill in knowledge gaps to help the student succeed in future education experiences as well. As an education and business professional, I know the skills that are most important to employers. I hold degrees in K-12 Education, Spanish, and English as a Second Language. I also hold
