About Michelle
"Education is not the filling of a pail, but a lighting of a fire." -William Butler Yeats
Kids naturally love to learn. It's in how they explore the world and how they discover. The challenge of education is to keep that love fresh and new when the learning gets more difficult and more detailed. I feel like the best way to find the balance is to encourage kids to ask as many questions as possible and to look for as many answers as possible on their own. Sometimes that can be as simple as letting the kids pick the topic of a given assignment or to choose one of several assignments based on a single topic. Lessons should as often as possible be guided around how a child learns, especially in a smaller setting like homeschooling. It's hard to do this with larger classes with many learning styles, but a kid who learns best by reading material isn't going to do as well as they could in a setting that requires them to listen to a lecture and take notes. I like to encourage kids to seek their own education while introducing them to traditional elements (particularly in language arts where certain classic books are expected in upper grades).
I am a psychology major, but my specialties are math and English. I make math more accessible and less dreary for students of all ages. I was a reporter for two years for my college newspaper, and I helped in the APA writing lab for the psychology department. I can help students express themselves through writing, as well as helping them build strong prose. I have played clarinet for sixteen years and was also a music major for four years. With that comes a broad base of music knowledge and writing skills.
I love the "lightbulb" moments when a student finally understands something they've been struggling with. I love sparking a love of learning in someone.
I have elementary education courses, a psychology major, and ten years of experience working with students to strengthen their learning. I wrote on the school papers in high school and college, as well as in the APA writing lab in college.

I generally start with a review of recent tests, particularly ones the student did poorly on. If a student is starting from scratch in a subject I'm teaching, I'll give a pretest for them to complete to see how much innate knowledge they have, perhaps without realizing it. We will then build a lesson plan together.
