As a teacher I believe it is important to communicate high expectations for the success of all students, regardless of age, race or socio-economic background. I believe all students can succeed. It is often a challenge to ensure that the classroom climate and curriculum is supportive and responsive to all students. No matter what the subject, students should be provided with an academically challenging curriculum that includes attention to the development of higher level cognitive skills. I encourage students to share attitudes, concerns and aspirations. If students have their own views challenged, it encourages the critical thinking and reflective judgment that will serve them well throughout life. I am a professional with 16 years experience managing the accounting records and training staff of both small and large companies. I completed my BBA in Accounting while working full time and

Education in my life has been my number one motivating factor for success. Throughout my educational career I have always been organized and a group leader when it came to helping my fellow students with projects/homework/studying, etc. For many years I tutored individuals in English, Math, Social Studies/History, German, Psychology and Arts. My experiences have all been validating. Sometimes schools are limited in the amount of extra attention they can give certain students and that is where being a great tutor comes into play. In college I was a teacher's assistant for an introduction to womens studies class and it was a very rewarding experience to help other students clarify and learn information. My teaching style is relaxed, non-forceful and always understanding. I am a kindhearted person in general so when I relate to anyone else I always use the utmost respectful language and ton
