我在密苏里州富尔顿的威斯敏斯特学院接受的教育。我的学士学位是幼儿教育和基础教育。我目前正在攻读特殊教育硕士学位，重点是自闭症谱系障碍和行为障碍。我是Lee's Summit R-7学区的三年级教师。我在本区教过一年级和二年级。在过去的3年里，我一直是一名课外辅导老师，辅导前面提到的年级的学生。我还在大堪萨斯城的男孩和女孩俱乐部担任暑期学校教师和课后小组教师。我辅导数学和阅读方面的所有概念和技能。我还喜欢辅导组织、社交和行为技巧。我最喜欢的导师科目是阅读。 I enjoy tutoring reading because my students that struggle in reading believe they will never be successful readers, therefore many do not enjoy school. I like to show these students that with some motivation and extra support they are able to reach their highest reading potential. I love to see the light in their eyes when they realize they are able to open up a new book they never thought they could read. My tutoring style is to create an environment where students feel they are having fun and playing games. I like to create activities that include the students common interests and hobbies. My tutoring style is more laid back and student driven. I feel this way the student is more comfortable and able to focus and be successful during a tutoring session. When I am not tutoring I like to relax and read a good book, take my dogs on a walk, and spend time outside (especially in the Fall). I enjoy spending time with family and friends, watching sporting events, and coaching/playing softball.
