I have over 17 years experience teaching children (regular and education/georgia/atlanta">special education) and adults from various cultures. My areas of instruction include language arts, articulation, math, reading, writing, ESL instruction, sciences, social studies, test preparation, study skills, and GED preparation. As a result of my instructional skills, my students have gone on to excel in the subject areas that I have taught them. I have built an excellent rapport with all my clients, as a result of my personable social skills.

I treat each student an individual. There is no cookie cutter approach for each student. I have to consider which techniques are appropriate for each individual.....auditory, verbal, visual, etc. I like to initially record a base as to where the client is.....and then write measurable goals, so that I can have a picture as to their progress achieved. The accuracy levels help to serve as motivation to the client and to provide a picture for the parent to show the progress achieved thus far.
