I hold a bachelor degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing. I majored in Elementary Education for two years before I switched majors. I started a master degree program in International Relations in 2009 and decided to return to school in the fall for a master's degree in social work. I have experience in private school and public school systems. I completed course hours for college in public school systems as well as working for public and private schools.
I have experienced various types of teaching styles while in school. I have learned a long the way every student is different and learns in a different way. In high school and all even through college math had always been my hardest subject. My second year in college I had a math professor that had a different approach to teaching math and for the first time in my life I finally understood math! Findi ... read more

Identifying a person’s learning style is the key to successful comprehension of a given subject matter. My teaching style involves recognizing concepts that the person does find interesting to help them relate to and understand what they are trying to learn. I am patient and diligent, and I will help you understand and enjoy the subject.
I have led reading groups and Language Arts classes. I have taught music lessons to a variety of ages and I have taught Music Theory and History at the collegiate level. My mother has been a teacher for 35 years and I have always enjoyed helping her in the classroom. I have a Master of Music and Professional Artist Certificate from the North Carolina School of the Arts.

A teaching philosophy that I subscribe to is that the best way of learning is through experience. My assignments are designed to help students explore their creativity as well as teach valuable artistic principles upon completion. I am very well aware that different students have different learning styles. This is why my assignments are multi faceted and contain a variety of approaches.
Throughout my graduate studies I have thrived in the studio. I have also gained experience teaching at a college level. My studies in undergraduate and graduate school have led me to my ultimate goal of being an art educator. Some skills I have learned include classroom management, building of syllabi, grading, creating valuable assignments, as well as proctoring exams. My passion lies within fine art and I am very privileged to have had such a wonderful education.

I have wanted to work with kids all my life. I love the way that they learn and think, and how different it is from adults. I studied Biology at Warren Wilson College in hopes of becoming a high school biology teacher. While at college, I did over one hundred hours of service tutoring and mentoring high school and middle school students in Buncombe County. Since graduating in 2009, I decided to take a break from school, and figure out where I wanted to go in life. I have been working at a local after school for elementary aged kids. This experience has taught me a lot about working with younger children and patience.
I believe that a great educator is a great learner. I am always up for learning new things, so that I am able to teach someone else my new skill. I believe in a hands on approach to learning. The more that can be discovered by doing is much more beneficial than just re ... read more

As the founder and president of UNCA French club 2008 until 2010 I enjoy helping others with the French language. I am also a member of Pi Delta Phi, the National French Honor society's chapter at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. I now hold a bachelor degree from UNCA with a major in French language. This language experience makes me a capable instructor of English as well as French.
I believe that the best way to learn is by repetition and not being afraid to make mistakes. This is especially important in language acquisition as many students are afraid of making pronunciation errors. I believe in making this practice and experience enjoyable so that both student and teacher can put in the necessary hours for real learning to happen.

I graduated from Stanford University with two bachelor degrees, BA in English Literature and Creative Writing and BA in Art and Art History.

A Little Bit About Me...

Studying art has made me a keen observer of both the the human condition and the world that surrounds us. There is a complexity in this experience that involves aesthetic decision making, technical applications of craft and an underlying philosophy that serves to communicate my ideas. Much of my knowledge comes from hands on learning and through apprenticeships which laid the foundation for for my later academic degrees (BFA Film making, MFA Sculpture, MA Art Education).
Having a clear set of expectations for students establishes a good learning environment. When a student has a goal to strive towards, borders are established and the spontaneity of my teaching style serves to keep my lessons lively. From my experience as an apprentice and from my tendency towards the hand made, I try to use physical examples as I teach in an effort to help a student retain information. Through ex ... read more

I strongly believe that the success of education depends on how well it targets a student's learning style and values. Everyone can learn, but individual attention is a vital part of that. We don't all learn the same way or at the same speed, and these differences should be addressed in a positive and creative way to both convey the subject material and strengthen a student's ability to learn in the future.
I received my B.A. in English from Appalachian State University where I also received training in education. Afterward, I became an instructor at Richmond Community College, teaching basic reading and math to adults with learning disabilities as well as a course on PC literacy & business training. In addition to classroom instruction, I've had one-on-one experience tutoring university students in English and Learning Skills.

I elected to homeschool my three children who are now teenagers; thus I have many years of one-on-one teaching experience. I feel that some children need to be away from the stresses sometimes experienced at school in order to discover their academic gifts. An individual tutor has the luxury to get to know the student, see thier potential, and cheer them on in a way that a classroom teacher may not have the time to do. In our homeschool we have used a variety of curriculums which have most often been in a "hands-on" or experiential style. Often though, there's no getting around the fact that we have to just sit down and do the work.
Since I am an artist, I naturally try to teach in a way that honors intuitive ways of learning. I believe that students can often sense the correct way to do a math or writing problem and should be encouraged to trust their own intelligence. Everyon ... read more

Creativity is important in the learning process and well as discovering ones unique learning style. I believe in developing a variety of different skills and approaches to problem solving. Often there is more than one way to learn new material.

I studied Art History at Florida State University, which required a number of essay and extensive seminar classes, which taught me different ways to complete 10-20 page papers. I have worked teaching children in many different environments, in a preschool, Boys and Girls club, and at their homes. I have worked with children all ages from one to fifteen, with language and basic math skills.
I strongly believe in allowing the student to learn through their own will and with their own techniques, I try to just be the vessel that allows them to get to this point. I have worked in Montessori type schools where learning is a self-discovery and a journey. I try to find a way to make the subject interesting in a specific way for the student to allow them to want to learn, and getting excited about succeeding.
