I have taught English at a private school in Ansan, South Korea for 1 year from March 2009 to February 2010. I taught children from ages 5-14. This was a full time job. I take close consideration of each child’s ability in the language and cater to his or her individual needs. I believe in teaching in an immersion environment so that the child receives the maximum exposure to the target language. Depending on his or her language level, I am able to incorporate the native language of the child in with the lesson to ensure a found understanding of the material being taught. I am a every highly motivated individual and a student who excelled at being a student. I graduated from the University of West Georgia in 2008 with three bachelor degrees: B.A. in German Language and Literature, B.A. in Spanish Language and Literature, and B.A. in Global Studies.

As an adjunct instructor, I did not only lecture, but also invited guest speakers, assigned group projects, and used films and music to deliver the content of the class. I understand all students learn differently, so it was my goal to ensure that I offered a variety of techniques to present the class material. I encouraged my students to offer suggestions if they had a better idea about the method of instruction. I am also a firm believer in giving students multiple opportunities to achieve a goal, if they show initiative and are truly trying to grasp the topic. For example, I always gave my students a chance to present their papers to me before the deadline. I would read and return with any suggestions so that the student would earn a higher mark on the final product. My first job out of graduate school was as an adjunct history instructor at Columbus State University. I did al

I am a great learner and adaptor to the client's needs.

Teaching young people involves an understanding of the student, what they value and a desire to help them gain the ability to learn in a way that they can respect and embrace. Events must be explained in the context in which they occured. The points of view of all parties must be respected even when they are faulty. Children must be taught why and not just what... The thought process must be matured and methodical so that it can be used as a template that can be applied to a wide range of situations. I have two children and four grandchildren and understand the needs of both children and parents. I received my BS in 1983 and served over 25 years as a police officer in the state of Georgia.

My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task. As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subj

What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education system. I have found this method to be very effective. The other method is patience. Students who strugge with their academic learning usually are having other areas of difficulty which may be social learning. Having clinical training allows me to make a more accurate assessment. During the last 10 years I have worked with all levels of students, preschool through college levels. These areas include reading, math, english, psychology, science and social studies.
