There's only so much one can do in teaching...

In my free time, I love learning and practicing new languages and reading about Space and...

I have a B.S. in Education and Animal Science/Biotechnology with a Master of Education. I have been working with children since I was a downhill ski instructor in Minnesota during high school.

I view teaching...

...in anything. Academics will always present challenges, and it helps greatly for a student to have someone on their side to encourage and guide them.

...the potential to learn anything; it is up to the student, teacher, and parent(s)/guardian(s) to figure out through what medium is best suitable for the learner. I am a facilitator, rather than a lecturer; it is critical that the student explain his or her thought process when completing an assignment, so I may evaluate whether or not she or he fully understands the concept. I believe that learning can be fun, whether it is reading...

...learning about a student overall; yes, this includes all academic aspects, yet knowing who they are outside of that arena provides the foundation for considerate ways to integrate who they are into lessons. Building a strong context regarding the ways in which they, as an individual learn best be it obvious or not, furthers my ability to lead them to success by fostering them as a unique individual. I feel it is incredibly important to...

In lots of events, the thing that confuses them may become clearer through more examples of it, or from a different concept allowing the difficult to manage concept to "click". Focusing on one issue a student isn't grasping causes more harm than good when it causes the child to become so frustrated that they simply shut down and stop trying...
