I graduated from Spring Arbor University with a BA in English-Writing. Throughout my classes, I have honed the skills of writing and communicating effectively, whether it be creatively or analytically, as well as expanded my knowledge of literature by taking classes such as Shakespeare and 20th Century British Literature. I am a very well-read person who has a leaning toward classic authors such as Bronte, Dumas,and Hemingway. I completed a senior honors thesis, which was 70 pages of analyzing the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and continuing my own creative project, a novel in the making. This honors thesis received the Marsha Daigle-Williamson Award in English in May 2011. To go along with my English degree, I acquired a minor in History while at Spring Arbor University, which led to me tutoring an American History course. Along with this, I have published short storied and poems in smal ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I vary my teaching style according to what brings out the best in each of my students. It depends on what learning strategy works best for them.
I have worked in many aspects of tutoring from being a lead teacher in a daycare classroom to my current job as a bilingual teacher assistant in an elementary school. I have held my current job for four years. I have worked with children with varying disabilities. I have also tutored college students in study and test taking skills, reading and comprehension, math, and English language arts.

A Little Bit About Me...

I completed to Calculus III at Michigan State University, receiving a 4.0 in Calculus I. I tutored other students while in high school in math and science related classes. I completed AP Chemistry and AP Calculus in high school. While at Haslett, I took chemistry, AP Chemistry and then tutored a chemistry class and then completed chemistry and organic chemistry at MSU.
I do better when the student has a desire to learn the material. I prefer to explain problems and then have the student do them, with me giving feedback and helping explain the problem as we go.

I teach by learning the student and beccoming aware of how they learn and what interests them in being able to achieve at their best. I love the look on a child's face when they finally realize that they have achieved what they viewed as unachievable. No child should be in the position of believing that they cannot accomplish any task. I believe in teaching from the view point of an open mind and helping the child to view what they are learning from the aspect of I can and not it is impossible.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator, I have had many opportunities to work with various different students. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education and a master's degree in teaching with an emphasis in learning disabilities. I have taught secondary special education for 5 years, focusing on math, reading, and writing. I have also privately tutored students of all ages and abilities in math, reading, and writing. I have excellent success in helping students improve their skills, often beyond what is generally expected of them.
It is difficult for me to say which age of student I love working with because each student I have worked with from age 6 - 25 has been very rewarding.

A Little Bit About Me...

I began my career as a high school teacher teaching grades 9-12. My engagement with students at this level was highly satisfying; I loved teaching this age group speech and drama courses. After that I spent several years in a FT professional touring performance ensemble that performed for all ages in a variety of settings across the Midwest. Finally, for the last 15 years, I have taught a variety of college level communication and performance courses, as well as various writing classes. I help students become competent oral and written communicators. The expressive arts (e.g.,theatre and performance studies) is also a specialty. I work one-on-one with most of my students.
I love the give and take of interaction with students. My approach is learner-centered, which means that I see each student as an individual and strive to tailor our instructional exchange to meet the needs of ... read more

I am a very patient person who has been called a natural teacher. I speak clearly and well.

My teaching methods vary depending upon the subject matter and the pupil’s preferences. I enjoy getting to know students and customizing their learning experience to the methods that will best serve them. In the classroom setting, I employ many forms of teaching, including lecture, memorization, demonstration and the Socratic Method when appropriate. I have worked with students from all backgrounds and age levels, and enjoy each student for their own unique personality and potential. I believe that all children can be successful when surrounded by people who care and tools to get them there.

I prefer to approach learning in a well-rounded approach. I feel that when others have a basic understanding of material, they are better able to ask relevant questions that are more specific. During school, peer-review was an area I excelled at. I am supportive in others' efforts, and guide them in the right direction, while paying attention to their strengths.
Throughout my college career, I learned many reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. Academically, I am most familiar with the structure and requirements of written assignments. My work gave me over 5 years experience in the customer service field, where I trained over ten other associates.

Students that I have tutored/mentored have become very successful in their life after graduation from H.S./College. I know that if a child can read, and understand what they read, they can be successful in life. That is my first priorty in the education of a student.
During the past 5 years I have been a substitute teacher for Kentwood Public Schools and Excel Charter School in both elementary and high school classes. This experience has given me insight into what I feel is necessary for students to prepare for the future i.e college, skilled labor, technology etc. I have administered tests to evaluate pupil progress and issue reports to parents to discuss student progress and any problems that may exist.
