ADD/ADHD Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Ottawa Lake, MI

It is important to me that all children reach their best potential in whatever grade I am teaching. I have been in the teaching profession for 20 years and each day brings something different. Although, I came from a family of medical and science background, I have always wanted to teach and after 20 years, I am glad to say that I chose this profession. My goals are to meet each child at his/her learning level and provide the best education possible. I believe in varying my teaching style to suit each child thier cognitive abilities and grade level as it is my belief that all children can learn.

Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.

While pursuing my MA in Medieval Studies, an interdisciplinary degree combining history and literature, I was able to teach six sections of Medieval 145: Heroes and Villains. The sections averaged 40 undergraduate students of various ages and I enjoyed sharing my love of history and literature with them. At the same time, I was able to help shape their writing and research skills. I learned the ever-important lesson: if you can research it, you can teach it! In high school, my BA studies, and my MA studies, I earned top grades in all my history and English classes. My teaching experience at Western Michigan University left me with a deep desire to continue teaching. I am a very enthusiastic teacher. I love my subjects and want, above all, to instill in my students a love of learning. I believe that all children can be enthusiastic about learning if a patient teacher or tutor is wi

I have grown up knowing that teaching is a fundamental need for our lives. Both my parents are teachers, and I have always been good at explaining things to others. As I pursued my career choices one of the most important goals for me has been to give others the opportunities at learning that I have enjoyed. I firmly believe that not all students can be taught the same way, and it is my job to help them discover not only what works for their learning needs, but to be creative in how I present material to bring the best out in each student. When a student discovers why learning is important is gives them a since of confidence in thier future that can't be taken away. I simply love to teach! While I was in college, I worked for my finacial aide as a tutor in all areas other than Math. Once I earned my degree I went right into teaching. After a year, I was hired as a college basketba

I love working with children and adolescents. I am confident in my abilities to effectively teach and make a positive impact on students lives. I think that if only one person is able to make a difference in the life of a child, all the education and hard work has paid off.

As a graduate of Bowling Green State University's Master of Education program, I have always had a passion for working with students in both a school and counseling setting. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Sociology, which enabled me gain employment as a Crisis Hotline Phone Attendant and a Behavioral Specialist in a Children's Home for troubled and at risk youth.

I am quite capable of doing other things, however, I love being in a classroom. I embrace challenge. I find when I am in the classroom I constantly learn things about myself. I am a willing learner myself and strive to project that while teaching. I respect students as individual learners with uniqueness. My most rewarding days are when I realize a student has mastered a concept, that moment following a struggle when everything falls into place. Hopefully, it is as rewarding for the students as it is for me. Upon graduation from college in 1989, I immediately began my teaching career. I taught Kindergarten my first year then began a challenging yet rewarding run with the severe behaviorally handicapped. The more divers and challenging the population I work with, the better I like it. Reading and language arts are my favorite subjects to teach, as they encompass absolutely everyt
