I have a tremendous amount of experience that can help me help you.
I know how to break down math problems into steps. Also, I can help explain in different ways what the steps mean.
I have taught the scientific method to a classroom of second graders. I enjoy helping students problem solve and test solutions. I like science because I get a chance to channel creativity into a testing paradigm. Our students will need to be innovative to be successful in the 21st century.
In the U.S. Navy, I was responsible for writing evaluations for service members. I authored these evaluations for ten years. I love to write because there are many ways to spin a phrase.
I also taught reading, grammar, and phonics to a classroom of second graders.
I know the mega memory program by heart. It is a tool that can help you with your working memory.
I used to have a hard time in school, but I learned many organization tips and recall strategies over the years, and I now view learning as empowering and not a chore. I hope to help you enjoy learning too.
