I was eight years old when a little classmate, who was a neighbor, was struggling with learning to read. I volunteered to help her, and as I began working with her, both of us became so excited over the progress she was making. Even our teacher noticed! It was at that moment--when I realized that I not only helped her improve her reading but also strengthened both of our self-esteems, that I decided I wanted to be a teacher and do it over and over! Watching her progress brought me such joy! ... Read more

As a Registered Nurse, I have encountered experiences in several different places. As a student on Co-Op from Northeastern University, I spent three months at a PHS hospital on Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. As time went on, I spent several summers as a camp Nurse helping campers from age 9 to 16. As a substitute school nurse, I learned age appropriate techniques, but also areas of student health needs outside the usual medical needs. I have tutored 8th and 9th graders during an aft...

I realize that learning French can be overwhelming, and at times embarrassing especially when speaking the language, but I am adept at building confide... Read more
Kristen
Certified K-6 Teacher
- $50 / h
- Seymour , Connecticut ( 06483 )
- 20 miles
Currently I teach 3rd grade in Fairfield, CT. The best part about my job is watching kids learn over a period of time. There's nothing better than watching a struggling student finally "get it." Tutoring is something that I enjoy because growth happens so quickly based on 1:1 instruction. When a student first comes to me with low self confidence with a specific subject, and weeks later they're smiling from ear to ear-that's why I do it. Every child is capable- some just need extra attenti... Read more

About me: My career choice and dedication to education are not an accident. My grandparents and their families came to the US for a better life (with no wealth of any kind) and I was raised by a single mother for years. Finances were a constant concern. No member of my family has a college degree because it wasn't possible for them, but they all knew that education was important not only for personal development but also for career opportunities. Like my family, I am convinced that education... Read more
