I enjoy teaching children and helping them accomplish their goals. I believe that learning should be fun. I try to motivate each child by focusing on their strengths. I encourage each child to try their best. I believe that each child has the potential to do well in school and I feel that it is my job to help them succeed. I have helped several of my students improve their math and reading grades, dramatically! One of my students was failing math and he received a B on his last report card! The other student went from a fourth grade reading level to a seventh grade reading level in less than three months. I enjoy seeing the smiles on the children's faces when they get a good report card and it makes my job worthwhile. I have taught kindergarten for several years.

For the past 5 years I have worked with 4th grade students in school classrooms as well as tutored for FCAT Writes test. I have many tips and techniques to use when tutoring a student in writing. I absolutely love teaching and working with children. Children learn in unique and individual ways and sometimes struggle in school work because they learn at a different pace than the class as a whole. Individual and small group instruction greatly benefits these children in many ways. They have a chance to ask questions, to deal with specific areas of difficulty and to have better self-esteem when they discover they can learn and master the challenges of reading, writing, and math. Nothing is more fulfilling as a teacher than to see a happy face on a child who has discovered the joy of learning. As an English major in Education at the University of Alabama, I took many specialized courses

I am imaginative which allows me to develop very and many different ways of explaining things. I know that anybody can understand something if they get the right help. During my senior year of high school, I took four advanced placement classes to prepare for college. I was always the one who would help other students in my classes even into college. I graduated college and worked for four years. This helped me learn more about report writing and even helping people understand things that were out of their element. I enjoy helping people and sharing my understanding of learning.

My teaching philosophy is modeled on learning-centered and social constructivist theories. I take an Aristotelian approach in the classroom, guiding students both by lecturing and asking questions. I encourage students to ask each other questions and connect their education to the “bigger picture,” or the world outside the classroom. I believe in collaborative learning practices with mixed- and new-media informing student learning. As a tutor, I listen attentively to students and parents about individual learning concerns, find where learning weaknesses lie, and attempt to find a learning avenue more suitable for the individual learner. In a one-on-one setting, I tailor curriculum based on student level, interest, and attitude. More importantly, I believe learning should be fun and engaging; therefore, I try to engage students every moment to make the lessons easier to absorb and unders

Every student has the ability to learn. This statement is the key for all individuals' academic success. As an educator, it is my responsibility to provide an environment that is culturally diverse and academically challenging to ensure that all students can fulfill all expectations both academic and personal.

I believe in providing an environment that constantly challenges the students learning, motivating them to strive to the next level, and becoming strong, independent thinkers. As an educator, it starts with me to instill in the students a desire to learn, in order to meet the challenges they will face.

Having been an educator for over 30 years, I love and enjoy the opportunity to work with students individually. It allows the teacher to customize the setting to be encouraging, positive and workable. The learner is able to adapt well and know that their questions and concerns will be dealt with in a safe and supportive learning envirionment. By being patient, understanding, supportive and encouraging; this will lead to a sense of achievement. Every child has that opportunity to learn, no matter what their deficits are! Nothing is more rewarding to see how a student reacts to achieving something that was unachieveable before! As an experienced professional in education, I value it's importance. Learning how to read is an essential skill that should be taught in a personal manner. By being certified in Special Education, I've kept myself abreast with current teaching styles and approa
