Mô tả
Did you notice the misspelling in the title?
It’s to catch your attention and a demonstration of human behavior. It’s also an example of what makes me unique as an educator. I specialize in utilizing behavioral science to provide individualized, data-driven teaching strategies.
I believe MOTIVATION is the most important factor in learning. If we think about it, everything we have ever learned was because we wanted to learn it, whether it was because we directly desired it (e.g., an interesting fact, hobby, etc.) or because we wanted something from it (e.g., getting good grades, impressing a date, etc.). In other words, learning is an ACTIVE PROCESS.
Kinh nghiệm
I have a background in psychology and I have spent over 15 years as a behavioral therapist, educator, and consultant working with individuals with autism, acquiring the tools of learning theory. I am now able to draw on my education as well as my background in technology to provide a unique teaching perspective. I have a deep love for learning and a personal passion for science, language arts, and history.

Phong cách giảng dạy
I have an educational philosophy based on 3 tenets:
1.DYNAMIC COMMUNICATION - teaching information through a variety of mediums. Students learn best when taught through multi-sensory approaches. In addition, many respond better to one particular form of communication (e.g., textual, verbal, musical, visual, tactile, etc.) than another. Effective educators, like myself, will be able to sense and accommodate those nuances.
2.FLEXIBILITY - constantly adapting to the situation. Not everybody learns the same way. Things are always changing and to teach well one needs to change with them. I am always searching for new, best practices to expand my repertoire.
3.RECIPROCITY -- relationships are most potent when there is some give and take. Motivation is always strengthened through engagement. When students contribute to the process, s/he gains confidence, trust, and more understanding. That reciprocity forms the bedrock of a solid relationship.
My unique background has led me to a method of learning built on goals, metrics, and feedback; the basis for the most successful teaching programs. Using these techniques, I have been able to teach students that range from the unmotivated to the neurologically impaired.
