I'm an
Individual
I'm a Learning Specialist & independent contractor for a large Christian curriculum publishing house. I specialize in "R.E.A.L. Learning", which is Relational, Experiential, Applicable, and Learner-Based. R.E.A.L. Learning has proven to change learning retention from 10% to as much as 90%. I use this with my students, & I have presented workshops on R.E.A.L. Learning, training others for over a decade. I travel less now that I have 2 young children, & continue to own & direct an after-school program & summer camp. I'm available to tutor & prefer to meet at Olathe libraries, Johnson County libraries, or Olathe restaurants where the student can have a drink & snack before we work (or during). (Along the lines of Panera or student's favorite snack place. I've even held homework sessions at McDonalds with a "play time" reward at the end. Supervised by parent or tutor, to be arranged. About Me: Before starting my own summer camp & after-school program, I directed after-school programs at 2 public elementary schools, including designated homework time. (Olathe & Shawnee Mission) I've been a substitute teacher, and also was a full-time Youth & Children's Minister for 16 years. While I was in ministry, I started my own summer camp & after-school program, which is in it's 10th year. I'm also available for private coaching for forensic tournaments & theatre auditions. My undergrad degree was in Speech / Theatre with an emphasis in education. I've performed at Walt Disney World (2 years) & taught theatre for CYT, The Culture House; Act Out, Olathe; & Johnson County Community College's youth program. I enjoy making learning FuN! Let's see what a difference "R.E.A.L. Learning" can make for your child / teen.
