About
My direct instruction, one on one, zeroes in on student's area of need and strengthens problem solving strategies.
I know that students can be mystified upon first seeing a math question. There are proven steps that take the mystery out of the question and lead to you finding the solution.
I have taught hundreds of students to become strong math whizzes and to attack math with confidence.
Reading students will gain confidence with the ways I help unlock the mystery of phonics and comprehension. Soon your reader will be spending time reading books for fun!
My favorite phrase is "Oh! Now I get it!" When a student sees his way to working independently then I know we have had a successful lesson. One on one or small group lessons are wonderful for a teacher. Nothing pleases me more than to show a student that he really only needed a bit of help to unlock his or her natural ability.
Learning online will become the new classroom.
Over the summer you can get a head start on how to be a strong online student.

How did you get started teaching?
I taught a third grade class with wonderful students and decided from the very start that teaching would be my life and my career. I have always had a tight connection to my students' parents and kept parents informed every single week and even daily if it helped student to succeed.
What types of students have you worked with?
Many of my students were English Learners, that is their home language was other than English and so some had difficulty in classes that were all in English. I could explain things in their home language and help them bridge the language gap.
For all of my students I built their confidence and then pushed them forward beyond where they thought they could achieve!
