In both the Special Education Classroom and the General Education Classroom, I have worked with students with ADD/ADHD. I have discovered many strategies that bring students back to "on task" behavior. I taught from the year 2000-2013 in Gwinnett County Public Schools. 2013-2014 tried Georgia Pre-K; which I enjoyed but was unable to live on the salary. I moved to a charter school and discovered that was not the place for me. I am now in Fulton County and love it. I have had the opportunity to meet amazing staff and students, making my job a pleasure to come to. In the 2015-2016 school year I will be teaching Interrelated Special Education in 4th and 5th grade. I am a "hands-on" approach teacher. Often educators think students are grasping the concept when they are really just hearing, not listening.

To make my teaching more effective, I usually psyche my student to see how the mood to learn is. Should the mood be down at first, I would just come up with something fun, educative, something that can help to boost someone's IQ score. I have also used the NCLB Method, No Child Left Behind Method. In it, we use examples for every question, and evaluate the students every week to enhance greater learning. I have always been a tutor of almost every class I took in high school, college, and even graduate school. I was always acting as a teacher figure to my friends, and my peers. I usually tutor Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. After I earned my BS in Chemistry, I totored K-12, and taught ESL to foreign students at South Florida Community College. More info will follow later.

K-5 I believe that most elementary students benefit from hands on learning and visuals to make connections with learning. These may be implemented through technology or conventional methods. I also recognize that children have different learning styles, and getting to know your child and their learning style is an integral part of developing an individual learning program for them.
