Profile of Deborah B.

Part-Time, 4 Years of Experience

I'm a very motivated individual who is dedicated to scaffolding children/students in their learning experiences. I have worked at Sylvan Learning Center in California (for two years) and am currently working at Sylvan in Virginia Beach (since August of 2007). I tutor and instruct students in beginning reading, academic reading, Sylvan math essentials, writing skills and study Skills. I have worked in a combined middle/high school in Santa Monica, CA as a teacher's assistant and substitute teacher for students with mild learning disabilities. It is here that I also taught a seventh grade English class. I am currently working in the Virginia Beach elementary schools as a substitute teacher for grades kindergarten through sixth grade (since November 2007).

I feel that "getting back to basics" is the initial step in getting a student caught up in their academics, when they have fallen behind. I also believe that additional instruction/tutoring can assist students in retaining essential information that has been taught in school. Tutoring does not only have to be for those that need help and catching up with their studies, but also for those that need to learn self-motivation, organization and consistency!
