Greetings, I have worked in the field of education for more than 30 years. I have degrees in psychology, social work and certifications in special education and school psychology. I like the teaching and learning process and have gained valuable experience with using online formats. I do some research on children and youth and currently work as a professor of psychology.

Helping students achieve their goals and full potential is our biggest reward as a teacher. Being in the profession for more than fifteen years has given me the time and vast experience of working with students with different backgrounds.

...and lay persons. I understand the foundational principles of learning styles and adapt to meet the learning needs of individuals. I am proficient in facilitating on virtual platforms and technology savvy. I currently serve as a Clinical Manager of a team of twenty Registered Nurses for a major managed care organization. In addition to providing oversight of the team, I facilitate education to the team on new processes or systems and onboarding for new hires.

...I have also taught high school earth and physical science in North Carolina. I have been in the Newport News and York County School Systems for over 3 years tutoring and substituting all grades. I have a passion for STEM, but can aid in any elementary subject. I love to teach and I believe all students can learn.

...licensed teacher in VA for 12 years. I have experience tutoring students in math, reading, writing, and organization/study skills in the upper elementary grades. My personal interests are running half and full marathons and showing our Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy in local dog shows. I like to travel whenever possible. When I was in the military, I was a Korean linguist, so learning new languages is an interest of mine. My students tell me that I...

...group to work with; the more variety, the better. I enjoy working under a blanket fort with a Kindergartener as much as I do having an intelligent conversation about a research paper with a highschooler. No matter the age, my philosophy is two-fold: 1) learning should be enjoyable and 2) the goal of tutoring is independence. I want my students to look forward to when I come, but also to be able to confidently wave...

...methodology heralded by many International Baccalaureate programs. This approach scaffolds the critique of primary and secondary sources by having students investigate the origin, purpose, value, and limitations of the object at hand. To this end, I typically create worksheets that explicitly model, step by step, the process of thinking critically about a given historical source. Although identifying what can be gained from Paul Revere's depiction of the Boston Massacre is rarely if ever applicable in...

I believe that everyone can learn, and that learning should be enjoyable and exciting.

...grade classrooms and a fourth grade classroom as a long term substitute while the teachers were on maternity leave. I believe in active, engaging learning where content is presented to show students how it applies to their lives. For example, working with decimals isn't another thing to do in math; you have to know how to work with decimals so that you can work with money. Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, cooking/baking and am...

...training session is as interactive as feasible. I believe that a curriculum that is interactive is more memorable. I employ strategies such as competitive quizzes and role-playing games. To make the subject matter I teach more relatable. All children are unique and must have a physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially stimulating educational environment in which to develop. It is my intention to foster an environment in which students can realize their utmost potential.

So, I would love to help anyone struggling in those classes to help them overcome these...

...fields. While I am happy with the switch, I miss working with students and helping them develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. I have discovered that my experience as an instructor has helped with my project management; and many skills I now have as a PM, I wish I had as a teacher. My strength is understanding that students learn differently, and often need things explained in various ways before fully understanding...
