As a private tutor, I will be able to effectively educate my students by providing an even more individualized lesson than I am able to provide in my classroom, and I will be able to foster a positive relationship that will contribute to my student's success. All of the classes that I took in my undergraduate program contributed to my being a highly-effective educator, and in my graduate program, I continue to take classes that challenge me to think more creatively about how to best serve my students' needs. In my class of student teachers, I earned the highest grade, and my evaluations from both my director of student teaching and my cooperating teacher were stellar. I possess both the drive and the competence to not only give the child what he needs, but to give him more than he needs, thus enabling him to rise to the top.
