Ashley Frankian- Special Educator, Ell instructor

I am a strategic based teacher that enhances my students learning through finding their own particular learning style. Each student has and individualized learning approach to their studies. Once they find what works for them, they will succeed. It is my job as an educator to help them find that out. I like to use a multi modality approach so that students learn all different types of learning styles, this way they may pick and choose certain styles that work for them. For example, If the students are writing about a short story they have read, to help them get their thoughts on to paper, I would assist them with graphic organizers to prompt them to list of jot down vocabulary words or important people places or things in the story however, in a manner that helps them to do this with a proper beginning, middle and end. All of this is visually designed on the graphic organizer to help the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of a top small liberal arts research university, where I had the benefit of learning from professors in an academic and laboratory setting in the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science. While earning a bachelor degree, I worked as a chemistry tutor and a teacher's apprentice for a biology course.
I believe that learning is what the brain does best, one simply needs an appropriate, enriching environment for learning. The most important thing a tutor can provide is a confident understanding of the material, along with a belief that it is intellectually accessible to everyone. Difficulties often lie in an ease of discouragement, not incompetence.

My intention in teaching science is multifaceted: I wish impart my love of Chemistry and Biology to a new generation of adults, enforce the idea that women can be strong in the sciences equally with men, and to take joy in the practice and teaching of chemical techniques and uses in both industry and environment. Organic Chemistry awakened a perspective to Inorganic Chemistry that helped me reflect on concepts of inorganic chemistry that had previously seemed abstract and difficult. Rather than being rooted in mathematics, organic chemistry took on physical shapes and emphasized the electrical forces between particles, making chemical relationships more tangible.

As a four-year teacher, I have had the opportunity to create my own philosophy based on my experience. I have taught both regular and special ed. children and have the same philosophy for all my students. I truly believe that every child is capable of learning and as a teacher; I need to identify the best approach to meet the needs of each child. Once I get to learn about their learning style, I can accommodate their needs more efficiently. Every child is unique and has his/her own needs and abilities and deserves to be treated fairly. . I want the students to feel at ease within the classroom and not timid in the learning process. I teach as a constructivist where students not only learn, but internalize their own knowledge. Everything that I teach the children has a purpose. I also use alternative forms of assessment to assess ones students progress throughout the year. This i ... read more
