Inspiring students to "let go" and tap into their innate creative talent. I believe that everyone has the ability to write well and creatively, but the "inner critic" acts as an editor (according to Julia Cameron) which prevents people from expressing freely. I teach students how to control the "inner critic" and create from mind to page, and to value the creative process and the act of writing without prejudgment. As a marketing professional I also routinely teach professionals and business owners how to use WordPress and manage seven corporate brand blogs. Students who are serious about becoming a professional writer must learn WordPress, as it is the foremost program used for corporate websites. I am also a WordPress website designer. For nine years I have been successfully employed as a full time creative writing / ghost writing professional. My work has appeared in The Yale L

My teaching style is one that always tries to relate to the child and to have fun. Does the child enjoy video games, dinosaurs, soccer, dance, or a particular cartoon character? When I discover what it is the child enjoys, I bring that element into the subject we are learning about. If the child likes soccer and struggles in reading, I research about famous soccer players and find books on them. Perhaps, at the end of a teaching session, we go outside and kick the soccer ball for 5 minutes as a source of inspiration to get work completed. Bringing in other ways of learning through play and games is also something I enjoy. Playing simple math games or reading games is a easy way to teach a child, without them realizing they are learning. • Taught students in classroom in second grade public school for nine years by planning, implementing and carrying out lesson plans in reading, wri

I am currently a member of the Texas Counseling Association. I strive to help each individual reach his or her own potential with the strong belief that each child can succeed. Each child learns differently, and my objective is to discover how to reach each child. I believe strongly in a hands on approach to math which utilizes manipulatives. A child learns to read by reading, discussing what is read, and enjoying what is read. I enjoy teaching and watching each child develop as a res

I am a caring teacher who is encouraging and helpful. I try to explain the material in a way so that students understand and keep trying different methods in order to determine how students learn best. Although I am very serious about helping students learn, I often use a lighthearted approach to help students loosen up and enjoy the learning process. I am a certified teacher in English and Math with 5 years of experience teaching in both public and private schools. In addition, I have been tutoring for more than 15 years and teaching summer camps for young people for 10 years.

Educating students academically, socially and morally is my passion. I truly believe that all students, regardless of race, age, gender, socioeconomic status, grade level performance etc. can achieve because I've seen it first hand with myself and with those I work with. I believe that structure and having a firm grasp and understanding of the content being taught is important but it is just as important to be able to bring the content alive and make it relevant to your students. I tutored while attending East Central University focusing on academics (Math/Reading) but I incorporated a moral and ethical component that was just as necessary.I followed a lesson plan that was created around the state requirements and added my own creativity and relevance.I have been a tutor and academic mentor with the AVID program for two years.

I have been teaching 3rd and 4th grade for a total of nine years. I would like to tutor elementary age children in reading or math. I consider myself to be a compassionate, organized and concerned with the success of my students. I will work until I find a strategy that will work for your child. I believe students need the opportunity to learn in a hands-on environment with guided practice until they can become independent learners.
