I have coordinated educational and arts programs as a Program Director of a Boys and Girls Club & Arts Academy as well assisted individuals one on one in after school and day programs.

Coming from a family where my parents were both educators, no worder why education was so important for us kids growing up. First,I experienced teaching as a teenager leading catechism classes in the Catholic Church for a couple of years. I remember loving it. Later on, I had a change of heart and felt in love with teaching again. I started as a teacher aide, helping ESOL students. When I saw how much I could help them, it made all the worth of the world. Now, after certification and 10 years teaching, with all the ups and downs, there are always students that I can help in any way, from learning a subject to even in a personal matter, and when I acomplished that, I feel satisfaction and a sense of work well done. I am always learning and improving myself to give to the class and my students all what is available and interesting for them. I am very creative and energetic, and I try to br

Growing up, I never thought that I would want to be a teacher. After taking a job as a Childcare Counselor with the YMCA, I realized the I was meant to teach and work with children.

I am currently attending the University of South Florida in Sarasota to receive my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education.

I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of your student and then apply my creative mind to finding ways to present information. Positive reinforcement has given me the best success with students through the years. I believe there are no stupid questions and assess continually until I know that a concept has been grasped. Celebrations of milestones and victories are a large part of what I do as I believe self-esteem and failure can be the biggest obstacle a student must overcome. As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In ad

I enjoy teaching children of all ages. With the continuous stress on academic achievement it is of great importance to excel at every level. I believe everyone has their strengths and weaknesses and it is up to a teacher/tutor to find the patience to help their student discover not only their strengths but to strengthen their weaknesses as well. Education is the backbone to a well-developed, successful society and everyone should be given the opportunity to succeed in every aspect of it. As a University of Delaware graduate and a current MBA student I pride myself on my education. Throughout my carreer as a competative figure skater, education has been a priority and I feel it is the foundation to a person's successes in every aspect of life. Studying art history in college I was able to gain extensive experience in research and writing as well as a variety of basic college level courses

I have been in management for six years. In those six years, I have found the most rewarding part of my job is training new employees. In the past year, I have decided to change my career to teaching. I have passed the temporary certification exam for Middle Grade Mathematics, and have applied for the Hillsborough County Teacher's Job Fair in June. In my current job, I am a Peer Trainer, so I not only train my employees, but I train employees at and above my level. In my current job, I feel I am a strong trainer because I am able to determine people's learning styles. By determining their style, I am able to train them in the way that they will learn more quickly. In tutoring, I would have the skills to determine how the child will learn the information. Some children might work better by watching someone else solve the problem while explaining the steps. Some might learn by just

Teachers need to be well versed in being able to teach a lesson in every learning style. A teacher must be able to identify each student’s personality and niche for learning. Research has proven that students learn in a multitude of styles. It is vital for a teacher to take the time and assess how each student learns best. An effective teacher will then apply that information into every lesson to insure quality learning. Teachers must bridge the gap and provide opportunities for every child to be successful. By using Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence a teacher can pinpoint the style in which the child learns best. I have recently graduated from college with the skills and knowledge of how to teach children. I have earned a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. I have been student teaching for the past year. However, I have also completed several practicums within the school
