As an instructor, it is gratifying to witness advances in students' understanding, achievement and confidence as they acquire new knowledge and insight. The process of teaching is built on a foundation of positive interaction and trust. The role of the teacher is to facilitate and support learning. A structured and clear teaching approach provides a reliable framework for the student to learn, but students should feel guided and not restricted. My teaching style as a tutor is generally student-centered; facilitative and encouraging, steady, and receptive to student input. However, applying the approach that will best facilitate learning also involves understanding and addressing the needs of the individual student. Students are most responsive to learning when provided with consistent guidance from a knowledgeable source and believe that they can achieve the academic goals set forth. I h

Teaching is an extremely important job that must be handled with care and concern for the student. I firmly believe it is important to adapt to the students individual learning style and habits, therefore, my style is to adjust to the best method necessary in order to achieve success while learning. Many students are visual learners and prefer a hands on experience, whereas others could prefer oral, written or other teaching techniques in order to process the information. The first few sessions with a student, I prefer to ask them their learning style preference and gather ideas I feel would benefit the learning environment and continue my teaching style as required. Beginning my sign language career in high school, I have learned to embrace the beautiful language and culture of the deaf community.
