...adults alike. As a Media Instructor with the Gulf South Youth Action Corps, I used various forms of media (magazines, commercials, movies, and books) to discuss the importance of disaster preparedness, literacy, and resourcefulness.

Never stop learning.

...Egypt? Imagine what it would be like to be among the pharaohs and slaves by taking a video tour of a pyramid tomb. Struggling with vocabulary? Try discovering the etymology of words by taking a look at some Latin manuscripts written by monks centuries ago! As you can see, I like to draw in a lot of historic visual references to help learning a lot more dynamic and exciting. I love teaching others about the...

...course, I am always suprised by how intimidated and anxious students are when it comes to writing and English class in general. I love working with students in this subject because I get to change their negative preconceptions of the writing process, and seeing their face light up when they realize their own potential!

While we all have liked certain subjects more than others (and interest in the subject helps!), addressing lack of confidence as well as explaining concepts in alternative ways helps students realize potential they may never have known they had. In my early school days, I suffered math anxiety. I just could not get it. It frustrated me to the point where I would give up on a problem without trying....

...get back in touch with subjects. I have had the opportunity to work one on one with several students as a homebound instructor. In addition I have a reading endorsement.
