I enjoy teaching and working with students. I believe all students can learn and be successful with the right combination of commitment and training. Because of a student’s previous environment and training, some require more attention and assistance than others. I am available to help your child achieve academic success in the areas of accounting, finance, economics, general math, statistics and various other business related courses. My goal is to help your child develop the confidence and ability that they need to be academically successful.

As a student in the PhD program at the University of Florida, I have been very involved in academic pursuits. However, this personal endeavor reaches beyond my own experience as a student and extends into my professional work as an educator. I have been working in the field of Adult Education for students pursuing their GED diploma as well as Instructing courses in ESOL. This field has been a passion of mine and has enabled me to work with students of various backgrounds and educational stages. My teaching style would be best described as creative and improvisational. Because I work with students from such varied backgrounds, I believe that the best method is one that allows for flexibility and at the same time incorporates lessons from several fields at once. For example, in both my GED and ESOL courses I incorporate music into my lesson plans. I find that music is an excellent avenue t

When I can help other students understand a concept that was once very confusing for them, I feel very satisfied. I am very flexible in my teaching methods. Primarily, I like to understand the learning styles of my student so I know what will best work for them. I will do whatever it takes to make sure the student understands the concept and succeeds. I also like to encourage students by implementing different incentive programs; this will motivate them to continue working hard. I am extremely confident that I will be able to teach my students successfully in a fun and engaging manner. Currently, I am a graduate student in the Counselor Education Department at the University of Florida.

I love teaching art to all age levels. I really enjoy it when I show someone an art technique, they learn it, and make it their own. When teaching art, I feel it very important to demonstrate a technique, discuss how the technique has been used in different cultures, and then for the student to mimic my actions. Once the technique has been mastered, the student can take the technique and use it in their own way. As a math tutor, I work closely to find a method that clicks for the student. I am very patient, and I use various ways of solving a problem to find the one that the student can most understand. As an art teacher of over 15 years, I have taught painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, graphic arts, art history, and darkroom photography. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts at Christopher Newport University and my Master of Arts degree in Teaching and Lear
