Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of North Carolina Pembroke
I have degrees in Education and experience teaching. My classes are centered around English Language Arts whether it be spelling and grammar, vocabulary and writing, literature, and/ or complete curriculum. I also have experience teaching ESL students, and I'm Tosel and TEFL certified.
Hello, I am Ms Velvet.
ABOUT ME: As a teacher, I believe that we should provide students with the skills and opportunity to learn and grow. I think that students are more apt to care what you know, when they know that you care and I hope that I live that philosophy out in my classroom. I am excited about teaching and passionate to guide students learning.
Personally, I absolutely love reading. There is a book by Dr Suess that really does so much more than entertain. It is called " Oh, the Places You Will Go." Believe it or not, it was a college graduation gifts many moons ago. This book truly sets people of all ages up for success! While there are many quotes I could pull from this fabulous writing, my favorite is “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” - This quote emphasizes the idea of self-direction and the ability to choose your own path. I hope my guidance leads others to develop the confidence to choose the right path for them.
WHAT MAKES ME QUALIFIED: I am an experienced teacher in the classroom setting and a homeschooling mom. I have experience online as well. After teaching in the traditional classroom setting for many years, I started teaching virtually with my local school district. That was about 4 years ago. Now, I'm excited for the opportunity to teach virtually on outschool, to students all over the world.
I currently teach middle school and high school classes. My classes are centered on English Language Arts. I teach ELA Homeschool, Writing, Grammar, Spelling, Reading, Speaking, Vocabulary, Poetry, Literature, and more. My Classes
