I believe that a good quiet environment with one on one help can open the door for every student to be successful. Failure is never an option for any child provided that he or she has the right access in the learning environment. I will start with the student whereever they are academically and get them to where they need to be. Reassuring and encouraging the students as we both achieve our goals.
I have been mentoring/tutoring students for the pass fifteen years in school,church or community environment. I have been choosen to work with the most difficult students. My expectations are high but has proven to have a high success rate. I have earned a BS in Human Services/Management and I am currently working on my Masters in Preschool Education.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and learning. I grew up going to Montessori schools and truly believe that everyone is capable of learning its just finding the right way to teach that person--not all students can be boxed into a simple blanket method of teaching. I have found this to be true thru the collegiate levels. As a teaching assistant in college, I had to go thru extensive training to learn how best to teach each type of learner. I look forward to helping your child find their style of learning and tapping into it to support them in their pursuit of becoming the best student that they can be.
As a graduate of a private college, I have always been driven to perform at the top of my game. I have received two Bachelors degrees in both English literature and theater. Early in my collegiate career I gained a position as a teaching assistant (TA) and taught a required first year course for ... read more

My teaching style is supportive, creative and understanding. I have worked with patients from aged 2 to 102 and grasp much of the emphasis of the needs for each age group. I enjoy teaching because it brings forth a deeper understanding of the process. It also helps students feel they matter in their world and that they belong, rather than feeling insecure and alone.

A Little Bit About Me...

My BS in Secondary Education from Florida State University has equipped me with the knowledge and experience in educational psychology and teaching strategies through both course- and fieldwork in Leon County, where I assisted students in their reading, ESOL, and writing for grammar and composition. Because of my degree, I was also afforded the opportunity to student teach middle school Language Arts for one semester, where I learned to plan and apply instruction, and adapt it to the needs of varying students and levels of ability in grammar, reading comprehension, and essay writing. Over the last year, I have tutored college students in English, reading, writing, and the arts (including English as a second language).
I love helping students and believe every child has the ability to learn. I am passionate about encouraging them and inspiring them on the journey; sometimes, it m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

There is no feeling like the joy felt once a student grasps a concept you're trying to share. For that reason, I attempt to explain things in multiple ways. I also believe in honestly letting students know why and how their studies will benefit their future. Another thing I stand behind is students learning to also teach their new concepts once they have mastered them. My overall goal is to empower them to be thinkers, doers, and to expand their feeling of self-worth.
My college experience in the subjects of Economics, Government, Language, Math, Science, and Social Studies was rigorous. After finishing undergraduate courses, I worked for a program that sent college students out to public schools to be Teacher's Aids. We were expected to help any students who were falling behind in a subject. The experience was so rewarding that after graduation, I took a position working with trou ... read more

Children are individuals and you must find their style of learning and be able to adapt your teaching style for that child. I believe that you must geniunely love children and teaching to be able to reach children. They can sense when someone really cares. I have a passion for learning that I believe translates to the children I work with.

Additionally, I was employed as an Education Specialist for Early Education and Care and worked with several early learning centers to improve their curriculum.

"It isn't rocket science," is often the reply when asked why some kids have such a difficult time learning to read. I'll have to disagree, because for some kids the process of learning to read is just as complex. That's why it is so necessary for a reading teacher of struggling students to explore all avenues when providing remedial instruction. What clicks for one student might not work for another. For me, the joy of teaching struggling readers is the journey to find what works. I especially enjoy this challenge with young readers who still have the potential to thrive and learn to enjoy reading.
I recently retired after teaching thirty-six years. Most of my experience involved exceptional education student with learning disabilities. The last several years I taught Reading to struggling students who did not score well on the FCAT. I enjoy teaching all Reading skills but I partic ... read more

Today's students are tomorrow's leaders. That is why I am highly motivated to pass on as much knowledge as I can to as many students as I can. I do realize that all students learn differently. That is why my teaching style is one of patience. I will help a student out as long as it takes. I won't give up. I also try to create a comfortable learning environment. No one can learn if they are uptight or scared. Because kids will be kids, I sometimes have to be "hard", but I am never "mean". If given the right opportunities and mentorship, all students can have unlimited potential in life.
After graduating college, I served in the US Army for six years as a Chemical Defense Officer. My primary duty was to ensure that all 17,000 soldiers in the 1st Cavalry Division were trained and equipped to properly deal with chemical and biological hazards.

I started out volunteering at my children's Mother's Day Out Program where I taught very young children and nurtured them to learn that it was OK for mom to leave because she always came back. We had circle time, learned the basics, how to share, give, receive, pray, hug and make friends. From there I graduated to a more formal training i.e. preschool, where I actually planned lessons and age appropriate curriculum. From there I progressed to substitute teaching elementary and secondary students. I always gained control of my classroom and students and they always commanded respect for me and were engaged in the material that I was given to teach them. Many teachers repeatedly requested me.
I enjoy children of all ages and gaining and keeping their respect and trust. I find it comes naturally to me to earn their trust and respect. They can tell that I genuinely care about ea ... read more

I believe that all children have the ability to learn. After 38 years in the teaching profession I find each year to be just as exciting as the last one. It is always so amazing to watch the "light bulb" come on with each child you touch. I believe that children learn by doing and am a firm believer in the hands on approach. I have worked the past five years providing intervention for at-risk students at my school. I also work with teachers to help them achieve the very best from their students.
I am a NBCT with 38 years experience teaching in the Bay District School System. I hold bachelors degree in Elementary Education and a masters in Reading. My Florida teaching certificate is in Elementary Education 1-6 and Reading k-12. I have tutored with SES program in Bay County for the past three years in both reading and math for elementary age students.

As a student attending Florida State University's Civil Engineering program I was required to regularly learn, understand and apply complex mathematical equations, and scientific concepts to both hypothetical and real world problems. I was also required to regularly exercise my grammatical skills through regular lab reports. In regards to tutoring experience, as a high school student attending A.C. Mosley High School during my senior year it was requested by a M.A.P.P.S. (the school's AP program) guidance counselor to assist freshman and sophomore students who came into the office with subjects they were having difficulty with. More recently, as a student at F.S.U. I have lead study groups on an rotation system.
I approach teaching in a way that is very versatile and I am willing to adapt to accommodate a variety of learning styles. In general however I tend to back up and wo ... read more
