Although the use of memory is essential to the learning process,... Read more

Deborah
Retired Teacher
Learning can be a game. As a teacher I specialized in systematic instruction of core areas, using games, memory tricks and repetition. My belief is that all education can be related to the students daily life. Children learn best if they enjoy what they are doing or can see how they can use it today, not years from now. I taught elementary school math and I've been a volunteer tutor for elementary math and GED math. I have taught core subjects elementary subjects (k-8) since 1974. ... Read more
