About Me

I have tutored a variety of subjects ranging from elementary school to high school. My area of concentration is mathematics however, I am state certified in the state of Texas to teach all subjects grades 4-8. I also have an ESL certification. There is nothing better than seeing a child finally understand a concept! Being able to make impact on a young persons life is my driving force. It is my belief that all children can and want to learn. Learning is the avenue to opportunities. It is my job to provide access points to children in order for them to grasp the information. My background in education, helps me to scaffold material while presenting lessons in creative ways. This helps the student to better understand the concept in different ways.

Hobbies & Interests

Outside of working a full time job teaching, I enjoy reading books. I particularly love to read mysteries and novels. I also love the outdoors. I spend every opportunity that I can taking in different activities outdoors. I enjoy fishing and taking long bike rides with my family. I am a novice photographer, who enjoys getting those unique outdoor shots.

Q&A with Deannea

My philosophy of teaching evolved from many years of teaching experience. As I reflect on my beliefs regarding teaching and learning, I find that my mission as a teacher is threefold: *to promote positive learning; *to spark learner enthusiasm for learning; *and to provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. To accomplish this, I enjoy applying a wide variety of strategies based on essential educational principles encompassing cognitive functioning, learning theory, diversity issues, instructional planning and assessment. How would you help a student stay motivated?
