I love to see a person understand something they have been trying so hard to understand. I know that all people are going to learn differently and that I have to determine how a particular person learns. I am a very patient person, and I know that if a person is not understanding a subject, I just need to find another way to explain it. Every student has the capability to learn. I hold a BS degree in Mathematics from Salisbury University, where I regularly tutored my peers in various math subjects, physics, and chemistry. I also studied Spanish, with which I can still carry a basic conversation. I also taught English to Spanish-speaking immigrants through the Worcester County Board of Education for about 6 months.

Statement of Teaching Experience and Philosophy I had my first teaching job as a pre-university student. I taught agriculture and helped part-time with physics. I then learned the key components of a lesson plan; the topic, the objective that addresses in measurable terms what shall be accomplished (the student shall be able to use VSEPR model to predict molecular shapes, for example), the why (the utilitarian value of what is learned) and how (the activity to be undertaken), the assessment that provides a feedback on the extent to which the objective was met and, finally, the summary and conclusions. Since then I have taught in various times and capacities, some of which were voluntary, often teaching either physics or chemistry. I have not forgotten the words of a certain presenter who was charged with the responsibility of seeing to our induction in teaching shortly after I was hired

As an undergraduate, I became a chemistry tutor for two high school students in my junior and senior years. This experience led me to return to college for post-baccalaureate work in order to receive certification in the state of Maryland for education in chemistry. Additionally, I received a physics minor which benefited me greatly when I began my educational career in Maryland teaching various levels of high school chemistry and introduction to chemistry and physics for 7 years. As a part of teaching these courses, I also have had to teach algebra I skills which are necessary in order to be successful in these courses. I also have experience in the classroom working with students with learning disabilities and ADD/ADHD. My educational philosophy is simple: all students can learn—you just have to find out the best way(s) for each student. Once I have assessed how your child learns

While at Salisbury University, I studied Environmental Issues and firmly believe in the theory I learned that education in the beginning for everything. I have always loved learning, and as a result, I also pursued a minor in Chemistry, for the sheer love of science. Immediately after college, I spent the summer teaching riding lessons at a camp in Colorado. In the evenings, I took off my cowboy boots and spent my time acting as co-counselor in a cabin full of elementary to middle school aged girls, depending on the session. Since returning from Colorado, I have spent my time as a substitute teacher. I have taught students in Pre-K, all the way up to 12th grade. During my time teaching, I have been selected for two long-term positions. I’ve always enjoyed teaching others, whether I was a kid tacking up my pony and giving informal riding lessons or leading fellow undergrad students thro

I took a few classes on teaching at a small community college while I was still in high school. I still am considering becoming a teacher after going back to school to complete my major in accounting. I've always been a stronger believer in one-on-one teaching working more proficiently then being taught in a classroom. I am very patient and hard-working. I had an internship at an under-priviledged daycare for local children in Maryland and it was one of the most rewarding things I have ever accomplished. I understand the difficulty in learning new things takes time and patience so I am fully willing to diligently work to help encourage students to strive to reach goals. I entered DeVry University in Summer of 2007 as an Accounting/Business Major looking to aquire my Associates of Applied Science in Accounting. I took a variety of general education classes such as business, math, english,

I have volunteered in the classroom and with the resource teacher at my older daughter's elementary school. In 1986, I earned an MA and began working with adults as a trainer. In 2009, I volunteered as a reading resource working with second graders. I enjoy working with both children and adults. I am patient and believe everyone can learn. I treat everyone with respect. Education has made a difference in my life and I would like to provide that same opportunity to others.
