Experience
In 4 years of teaching I have learned a great deal about classroom management, data driven instructions, and current pedagogical strategies. However, I have found that the greatest tool for increasing student achievement is forming a solid relationship. Students won't care until they know that you care. Thus, I have utilized every strategy within my arsenal to ensure that my students know that I am invested in their growth and achievement, both in academics and character. This often involves holding smaller tutoring sessions before and after school to allow students to explore questions, review material, and complete experiments in an environment that is less intimidating and temporally rigorous as the regular class block. As a tutor, I will utilize the skills learned from my experience to work with students on increasing their academic rigor and confidence to achieve. Not only will the students become more knowledgeable of the content, but also of strategies for study, test taking, and project completion. By organizing content and materials, while tracking standard mastery, students will watch themselves develop further and have documentation of their own success. I am available to work 20-30 hours a week, during afternoons and evenings of weekdays or weekends. Thanks you for your consideration. Please feel free to contact me at any time for references or further questions about my qualifications.
