I have 2 Years of teaching First Aid/ CPR/ AED at the American Red Cross. I also have 1 quarter of tutoring physics at Washington State Community College. I also instruct Pet CPR/First Aid for the American Red Cross. This is especially fulfilling when watching children learn that there is something they can do to help save their injured or sick pet. Though, it has taken me many years to complete my degree, I believe this proves that persistance and perseverance pays off in the end, and that one is never too old to learn. I believe that with my excellent mathematical ability and demeanor I would prove to be an assest to helping students achieve their educational goals. I enjoy watching others learn and come to the realization that they can achieve their goals. My teaching/tutoring style is relaxed and pro-active.

In 2001, I graduated from IUP with a degree in elementary education. I substitute taught around the South Hills of Pittsburgh for a year, then moved to Virginia, where I taught fifth grade for four years. The first three years were in a public school and the fourth in a private school. I taught all subject areas and skill level abilities. I would describe my teaching style as hands on and according to multiple learning styles. I understand that students learn best when they have the option of working with material objects. I also realize that students all learn in different ways and therefore I try to teach to each student's learning style. If a student doesn't understand it one way, I try to teach it another way so that he/she can learn it.

As a graduate of Washington and Jefferson College, I had the opportunity to work in small work group settings and learned the value of tutoring firsthand. throughout high school, I had the opportunity to tutor younger students in first and second grade. Upon graduation, I was able to return to my old school and teach high school students how to excel in public speaking and forensic debate. These experiences have had a profound impact on my life. During college, I learned the value of writing through my experience as a columnist for the college newspaper and through years of extensive term papers. I would love to have a positive impact on a young student so that they may have the same experiences that I was able to have. I believe it is important to understand that every child is a different, and a different approach is necessary for them to each achieve their highest potential. I believe

I love working with children and helping them be the best they can be. Through my teaching experiences I have discovered that each child learns different and I feel it is my job as a teacher to recognize the child’s strengths. Once I know the child’s leaning style and strengths, I will build off of that information and present the material in a way that will bring the child success. As a teacher my number one goal is to help each child succeed with the least amount of stress. My best quality is patience and I take pride in that. I feel just as happy as my students when they achieve the success that they strive for. My teaching style has always been driven by what my students need. I will explain a concept different ways to help each child understand to the best of their ability. I became a teacher to help pass on the knowledge children need.

I believe that all children learn differently and at different levels and as a teacher, you need to recongize that and adapt your lessons to your students so they can achieve. For social studies, most student think that class is all about taking notes and reading from the book but I put a twist on all of my lessons. I do a lot of group projects, I have the students do presentations for each other on the material and also reanacts of big events to help the students understand what really happened with that specific event and how it impacted history. As a recent graduate from Westminster College, I have earned a BA in History and my PA teaching certificate for 7-12 in Social Studies. I have had experience in teaching grades 9-12 and tutoring students in grade 10 in subjects other than social studies such as science, math, and spanish.

I enjoy finding the best learning approach for each individual student and watching as he or she discovers the joy of learning. Once success and confidence is gained, learning becomes a positive, enlightening experience. I also believe that creativity lends itself in promoting learning as the specific interests of the student are incorporated into the learning. I have often been told that I am patient, easygoing and conscientious, which fosters a calm, yet dutiful approach to learning. My goal is to open up a new path to learning for each student that I am privileged to teach. As a Grove City College graduate, with honors, I earned more than a teaching degree. A striving for excellence has permeated my teaching experiences whether as a classroom teacher, tutor, or homeschooling teacher. The past 27 years of teaching experiences have included all subjects from Kindergarten through eighth
