Debbie R.

Private tutor in Catonsville, MD

Education

I earned a Bachelor's Degree in History and Journalism from Beloit College in Wisconsin. I continued my education with a Master's Degree in History from Portland State University in Oregon, and when I moved to Maryland, I took Education courses for my Maryland State teaching certificate at The Johns Hopkins University School of Education and Business.

Experience

I have worked for 15 years in Maryland State public and non-public schools from 5th grade to 10th grade. My Maryland State teaching certification is currently Advanced Professional. I am currently the Middle School Language Arts Department Chair for a non-public 2010 Blue Ribbon K-8 school in Howard County. Prior to assuming this position, I was the Department Chair for Social Studies. I worked for the Community College of Baltimore County at the Catonsville and Dundalk campuses teaching GED courses for six years. I have extensive experience working in classrooms, small groups, and one-on-one. I specialize in academic writing, reading comprehension, test prep, American and World History. I especially enjoy the challenges of working with children who have low self-esteem and lack academic confidence.

Hobbies

I love to read, garden, and hike. I have two cats, Ginger and Cleopatra. I like to sit outside on my porch and watch them play outside while reading books on my Kindle, which I am addicted to! I am a fan of Science Fiction television shows and movies, and enjoy traveling in the local Delmarva region to see historical sites and natural scenic areas.
