I enjoy working with kids of all a ages and skill levels! My passion is working with kids who are special education, or those who need more one on one time. Math was always a struggle for me so I enjoy working with kids who need extra support with math/algebra. I believe each child learns in their own way and it's extremely important to find their learning style and build from it. Each child has the ability to learn we just have to see things through their eyes in order to educate them! I currently work with special education students at a local school. I also work at an after school program to ensure educational activites during the after school hours. I Earned a double major from BHSU in 2008 for Sociology and Human Services with an empahsis in probation and Law enforcement.

My teaching style is on hands on and using lots praise for hard work. I enjoy working with others and seeing them succee. For the visual learner, they need to see things written down for it to stay with you. For the auditory learner, they hear sounds distinctly and can easily remember a song tune or lyrics; and for the kinesthetic learner, they like to learn by moving and possibly acting out things. I would have to find the persons style of learning and then apply which learning technique is most appropriate. I have experience in teaching others and have completed an internship grades k-4th when in College. I have taught religion classes, special ed classes and have children of my own that I have taught to read. My volunteer experience includes the following: Rapid City Regional Hospital. Religion Education Classes. Special Olympics, Internship at Working Against Violence, Volunteers

I am open to helping any student, old or young, gain more knowledge. I am very open to teaching anybody who is willing to give the effort to learn the material. I am a very patient, outgoing, and reliable individual. I am a believer in finding anyway to help a student learn the material. Sometimes it takes a different approach with every student. Every student does not learn the same way. Having a person there to help each child learn can go a long way in their future education. I am willing to do whatever it takes to help somebodys future. In college I excelled in my education by helping other students learn the material from class that they did not understand. I have earned one bachelor degree in Biomedical Science. This education has helped me gain tremendous skills in math, biology, chemistry, and reading. I have wrote many laboratory reports, research papers, and english papers that

Each child learns differently. This will be taken into consideration regarding each subject. Patience and encouragement will be a major factor in my style with the children. Every child wants to learn. I believe they have the desire but need someone to point them in a direction that they can comprehend. I am a savvy and intelligent business woman. I have a vast knowledge of all subjects. I am available for elementary through high school tutoring in the basic subjects of reading, writing and mathematics. I am patient, kind, and understanding.

Prior to changing my undergraduate major to Geography, I was an elementary education major. I have always enjoyed working with students; however, at the time I wanted to try something different and is how I ended up working as a Park Ranger for the National Park Service (NPS). My experiences with NPS have allowed me to teach in an informal setting, by educating the public about their national parks. I also have the opportunity to present curriculum based education programs in grades K-5 about different aspects in NPS. My experiences have also pushed me to start a Masters of Science degree in Biology to further my knowledge. While I was an undergraduate, I was also a teaching assistant for physical geography labs. I have always loved teaching, whether its adults or children. Everyone has their own learning style and teachers need to be able to adapt teaching methods to help all succe

I love working and teaching children. I believe that all children can achieve what they set their minds to. All children have different learning styles and I am here to find which learning style best suites each child and work individually with that child so they can seek success. As part of my work and volunteer experiences I have tried many different teaching styles and have had much success with reaching each student. I believe that with guidance students will succeed in their highest potential and I can make a difference in each students life. As a recent college graduate and now a graduate student, I have always had a passion of working with children. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Education and spent numerous hours and days with children both in the classroom and outside the classroom teaching about the environment, science, and reading.

I listen intently to what each student needs, and focus on meeting specified goals. Each person has the capacity to learn, and by using the strengths and commitment of the student, I will do my best to help the student achieve his/her academic goals. My education focuses on geology, the environmental sciences and includes the arts.
