I am a graduate of Eastern Kentucky University with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. I double majored in Marketing and Administrative Management. I graduated with a 3.98 GPA. After college, I worked in mortgage banking briefly and then began my family. While raising my children, I worked in mental health with the Employee Assistance Program. Eventually, I decided to get into the area of education and became a substitute teacher for grades K-12 for two years. I then moved to higher education and worked across the board in higher ed. I ended up in Human Resources where I stayed until I decided to leave and concentrate on working a job from home. Through the years, I have subbed for a variety of subjects and also tutored my own children as well as helped out with some college-aged students. I am a life-long learner and love to keep up on current events. I enjoy working with students to help them learn a subject matter. I do this by understanding each student and their specific needs. I believe that learning should be fun and apply to real life situations. I really enjoy math from K to Algebra. I also have a passion for literature and the English language. I spent many years editing students' English papers. In addition to helping students learn their subject matter, I worked with college students to improve their organization skills, time management and career possibilities. Watching a student succeed is one of the greatest rewards. I enjoy explaining information at a level equal to the student's ability to understand. Simplifying information to the student's level is extremely important. Not only does the student understand better, it helps with their self confidence. I look forward to working with your student.

After spending 30 years as an attorney in Kentucky, I decided in my retirement to return to my first love, teaching. I completed my undergraduate degree in English / Language Arts, but then decided to pursue my Juris Doctorate. I have practiced in courts throughout the state, but found the greatest satisfaction working with at-risk kids in the juvenile court system. Consequently, when I retired two years ago, I decided to spend my second career in education. I am pursuing my Rank II and my specialist certification in LBD (Learning and Behavior Disorders) education. I have also had the opportunity to work in adult education, as I was called upon to host continuing legal education training and to teach classes for the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department of Criminal Justice Training. Because of my long career in government, I also very much enjoy teaching social studies and criminal justice programs. I feel that bringing real world experience on top of academia lends me a unique perspective in those areas.

I am a recent graduate of Eastern Kentucky University and received Bachelor's of Sciences in chemistry and physics. During my years in university, I was not just a tutor, but a peer mentor to students, where students and tutors were encouraged to establish a mentoring relationship to help students adjust and succeed in college. While I tutor in a broad range of math and chemistry subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring general chemistry/AP Chemistry and calculus, because both subjects will help students understand that science is more than a series of dry facts to memorize, rather a process of understanding the physical universe. In my experience, helping students make sense of the fundamental concepts in calculus and chemistry leads the students to achieve remarkable progress and have the most fun. I believe that education leads to not only a deeper understanding of the world, but a better appreciation of life, which is something I want to show to all my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading about space, baking, and watching movies.
I am passionate about teaching others, and I have had a lifelong love of the Spanish language and culture. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Spanish Teaching K-12 with a minor in Psychology from Eastern Kentucky University in 2008. I later pursued a Master's degree the Teaching of Languages with a Spanish emphasis, which I completed in 2015 through the University of Southern Mississippi. When I teach, I strive to truly connect with the student to ensure they are understanding and grasping the concepts. I aim to be very patient and diligent in this process. I have 8 years of formal experience teaching high school students, as well as experience teaching elementary grades in my undergraduate teaching program. I am certified to teach K-12 Spanish in the state of Kentucky, and my Master's degree in the Teaching of Spanish also qualifies me to teach at the university level.I enjoy approaching my teaching with creative aspects, a variety of resources, and connecting the content to real-world scenarios. I intend to use the strategies that allow you to learn best based on your personal learning style. I like to involve the learner in the tutoring session as much as possible, and I want to help students achieve their goals.Apart from my interest in Spanish, I enjoy spending time sewing and crafting, playing piano, hiking with my husband, and cuddling my two cats.If you need assistance in Spanish, I would be glad to help!
A quality education is the most fundamental civil right for students.The goal of a quality education is for each student to achieve their maximum potential allowing them to make informed and intentional choices for post -secondary education and careers. Each student, all grades and ages, has unique learning and personal strengths and needs. I have earned a B.M.E. (Bachelor of Music Education), M.Ed. (Master of Education in Education in Administration & Curriculum) and Ph.D (Doctor of Philosophy in Education Administration & Curriculum). While these formal education programs have been of great value to me, professional development during my years as an educator kept me focused on research based, effective teaching practices. The most significant professional development activities for me follow. 1) Working with district teachers to assure all students were at reading grade level exiting third grade. Students must be proficient readers to succeed in all academic subjects. Students who are proficient readers are proficient writers and students who are proficient writers are proficient readers. 2) I worked with a nationally known mathematics consultant and district math teachers to design a curriculum and teaching strategies focused on all freshmen being ready for algebra I. We focused on preschool through grade 8 and a common math curriculum for all high school students. Students who read proficiently, write proficiently and do math proficiently are ready for academic success in all content areas and to make informed personal choices for higher education and careers. These students typically earn better grades, score better on standardized tests and meet or exceed benchmark scores on the ACT and SAT. Listening to music, enjoying drama and dance and following collegiate and professional sports are among my personal interests. Traveling to visit our granddaughter, daughter and son-in-law and having them visit us are at the top of our priority list.
My teaching philosophy is that all students can learn and improve. This comes from a student centered approach. I believe the key to improving reading and writing skills begins where the student is now, then build towards the future. For test prep. It's all about strategies! I teach how to approach the test by acquiring knowledge, but also by looking at the test through a strategic lens. Before teaching grades 6-12 in English, Reading, Journalism, and Research classes, I was an adjunct instructor for communication and writing at the community college level. In addition, my full-time position was an advisor for the College of Arts and Sciences. Although I assisted all types of students, my primary focus was first year of college students. Even that was a wide demographic. As both a teacher and advisor, I had students who were high school graduates, veterans, GED, recipients, and more! I look forward to working with a variety of students through Varsity Tutors
