Geography Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Zuni, VA

Hi! My name is Lauren Cotman. I am a middle school Spanish teacher in Chesterfield County. I have been studying Spanish since I was in the 6th grade and went on to become the President of the Spanish National Honors Society while I was in High School. While in High School, I developed a love for the language and all of the different cultures of the Spanish speaking world. I went on to major in Spanish at Bridgewater College and I was very active with the Latino population on campus and in the community. I went on to further my knowledge by studying abroad in Cuernavaca, Mexico and in Barcelona, Spain. From these two experiences I walked away with a much more impressive knowledge of the language but also experiences that I will have with me for the rest of my life. I look forward to being able to help your Spanish student develop the foundation and skills that will allow for he/she

I am a 2011 graduate of the United States Naval Academy with a Bachelors of Science in Political Science. During my education, I was exposed to many subjects, ranging from Electrical Engineering to European Literature. The most important things I learned during my time there were time management and study skills, because without a strong foundation in those subjects, one can not excel in others. I am a very patient person, and I like to help. It may take a session or two, but I'm confident that I can adapt my teaching style to meet your needs.

I have been an educator for 28 years, so obviously, I love what I do! My teaching style is to make each of my students understand the "why" of the siutaion. If a person(child or adult) understands why something is supposed to happen, then often the pieces will fall into place, especially in the math arena. I believe that all students can learn. I try to make learning as fun, facinating, and relevant as possible. I am very patient, goal oriented, and want nothing more than for all of my students to reach and feel success. I have taught in the public/private school systems in Hampton Roads for many years. I hold a VA State Certification which allows me to teach any subject in grades 1-7 and 4-8.

I have experience with children from 6 weeks old through High School.As a teacher,tutor, mentor and director.I was very much driven to a high level of educational expertise.My area of expertise are students with ADD/ADHD or those who are disenchanted with learning or with school. The key is to listen to the child, find out what areas of interest they have and build on that. I have never encountered a child who did not want to read about their area of interests. I am a life coach and oftentimes will use those tecchniques such as listening and then setting the appropriate goals to move forward.I have a Master Degree,and a BS in Elementary Ed.Every child can learn, but more importantly every child/student can develop an interest in learning. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find
