With each new student comes a new challenge, which means that my job is different every day. Nothing makes me...

...new materials that everyone in your class already understands. As a former Spanish major in a classroom full of native Spanish-speakers, I absolutely can relate to this feeling.

I have been in education for the better part of 20 years and enjoy helping students develop their potential as well as become life long learners.

My greatest strength and joy as a tutor is English language and literature - whether you have a third-grader reading their first novel, or an eleventh-grader studying for the SAT or AP English, I can help! My specialty lies in helping others to understand definitions and express ideas in their own words, rather than simply copying the dictionary definition or parroting others' words. I go...

...and helping other people realize that they have what it takes to do well in school and love what they're learning about makes my day.

...differentiated instruction that meets the individual needs of my students. A student-centered approach is imperative when working one-on-one with individuals. English, literature, and writing are the three areas that I have the most experience and fun teaching. When I am not in the classroom or tutoring, I am hiking in the bluffs of Wisconsin or chasing after my young son. I also enjoy reading historical fiction novels and traveling to historical sites.... One of the greatest pleasures in teaching is achieving a strong level of mutual trust; when a struggling student opens up and feels a sense of worth, real academic achievement can occur. Many students need different opportunities for educational growth: mainly one-on-one attention. This allows a teacher to recognize and nurture the multiple intelligences of each student and then discover approaches that have yielded previous success. Being an effective educator means being flexible enough to take risks and try fresh, creative approaches to new challenges.
