I have taught for 20+ years in Germany (mainly Math, English and Reading) and for 4 years in Kansas City, MO. There I taught all core subjects: Math, Language Arts, Science and Social Studies. Right now I have got several part time jobs: I work as a sub at a colligiate high school (all subjects), I will teach German at the Edison College in Fort Myers (Continuing Education) and I tutor for a private company doing SES tutoring - Reading and Math. I have prepared young people to do their GED, too. The subjects I did there were Math, Science and American History. I love educating children and adults and strongly believe in lifelong learning. Since I have taught at several levels and even in different countries, I use different teaching techniques. My goal is to help the learner to get the best education possible.

I believe that knowledge is one of the most important facet in developing a successful life. One of my favorite joys is to see another person learn something new and to make use of that knowledge in his life or career. Without education one is severely handicapped in the development of becoming a complete person. Education is the key. Realizing that people are all different, I am flexible in my teaching methods, slowing down or speeding up my delivery and/or the complexity of the material with each student. I believe that course development should be goal-oriented so that when the student progresses to successful completion of that goal, there is a sense of achievement. I served 20 years in the Navy, and during that period earned my BS Degree. Many of my assignments were in development and institution of training programs including Equal Opportunity/Race Relations, Leadership and Managem

Teach a man to fish...is for life. Tutoring is the same, especially with younger children. I haven't met a student yet who is unable to learn. My job is to find the method that will best enable students to self-actualize their learning. A success is converting the child's approach and passion for learning. If I helped to change the child's mind about learning, I have literally altered the course of his/her life in a positive way. I have a versatile background that began with two business degrees and progressed to a professional career in purchasing and sales. I discovered along the way that my true passion was teaching and I can be more effective in a tutoring one-on-one situation than a classroom setting. I am highly proficient and have tutored nearly all subjects and grade levels.

I believe that every child can learn. I love working with children and finding the style of learning that best fits them. I see learning difficulties instead as learning challenges that can be overcome. I take a creative, goal oriented approach and love to see students achieve their best. I recently moved to Florida after working in an urban school for 3 years. Prior to working in a school as a School Social Worker and Special Education Director I directed an afterschool program for juvenile boys on probation. I have had extensive experience with special education students. I have been trained to work with difficult students including behavioral modification. Previous work includeds School Social Worker, teacher assistant and tutor. I currently working part time as a Child and Family Therapist.

I must learn from and with my students, recognize different learning styles and abilities; challenge and encourage; support all efforts and accomplishments. Goal: acquire new information;reach maximum potential.Part of my challenge + responsibility is to have every class member realize this; to impart my knowledge and experience to all; to have them gain knowledge; to capitalize on diversity so all are able to take away information; to grow academically, emotionally and intellectually. My hope is that my students attain a sense of accomplishment, achievement and success that they did not previously have. Teaching is my passion. Student and professor is a team that shares the academic experience. I taught:Intro to Sociology,Social Problems,Sociology of Family,Sociology of Deviance,Social Psychology,Issues in Diversity/Oppression,Intro to Psychology, Psychology of Life Span, 1stYear Semina

I love working with children and seeing them get excited to learn new information. I feel that all children are very capable of learning, just some need that extra one on one attention that is not possible to receive in a classroom setting. I love that look on a child's face when they finally grasp a new concept. By helping a child learn you are really changing their future. Even though I hold a business degree I have always had a love for working with children. As a college student I worked for two different families as a nanny, where I assisted a total of five children with their school work and projects among other things. After obtaining my BS in Finance from the University of Central Florida I went on to get married and work in a bank. It was shortly after that when I realized that my real passion was with children. When I became pregnant I left my banking position to be a st

I have taught Kindergarten through 8th grade, in elementary ed, language arts, writing process, and social studies. I have tutored students in math and English, as well as worked in after school programs that focused on tutoring. I have graded over 1500 writing props for the State of Missouri, and have taught writing in school, as well as in an after school program. I am very organized, being on task and requiring my students to be so. I enjoy helping students learn and expect students to use their time wisely and productively. When a student does not get a concept, I break it down in very small steps; thus, helping the child pinpoint where they are making errors and correcting them. I encourage students by giving both verbal and non verbal rewards, such as stickers, and small prizes. Students seem to respond to my teaching style, and I have had success in improving student s

My style of education has always been as an encourager/motivator. I worked with middle and high school students at a vocational center, who the regular schools had given up on. I had great success since I have a high level of energy and passion for learning and motivating people, whether in the classroom, on the athletic field or in the community and church arena(both of which I volunteer in). Our goal was to prepare students for vocations and professions following graduation and I was very successful at this task, as is testified by the numbers of students working and owning their own businesses in the Ft Myers, Estero and Cape Coral area! I am a retired educator! I was a teacher/coordinator in Educational Supervision(adm) of sudents at a High Tech Center. I was also involved in Hospital Home Bound education for Middle and High School students as an additionally my wife and I tutor via

Apart from baseball, my second love is education. I feel that every student has the ability to grasp a subject or a certain idea. It is all a matter of finding out how that student learns. My main style of teaching is threw the Socratic method of dialogue and real world examples. However, I am very open minded, patient, out going, and I am not satisfied with doing things one-way. There are many different ways to climb a mountain but it is important to know the most productive. After graduating from Jacksonville University with a BS in Business Administration, I joined the field of professional baseball. I have been playing professionally in the Tampa Bay Rays’ organization for the past 5 seasons. During my off-seasons, I have been working for the Sarasota School Board as a preferred substitute mostly at Sarasota Middle School. I have taught in every subject at the middle school l

I possess a very eclectic and kinesthetic teaching style. I believe that children learn best when as many senses as possible are used in teaching them. When a child sees, hears, touches, smells, and sometimes tastes what they are learning, their brains are using multiple connections to hardwire whatever you are trying to teach them, therefore they will be more apt to remember than if taught by rote. I also believe that it's necessary to think about their physical, intellectual, emotional, and social well-being while they are learning. Children need to move. They will not retain as much information if they are not given breaks in routine at least every 15 to 20 minutes. Their intellect needs to be stimulated, they will not retain information they believe to be irrelevant. Therefore, it is our job as educators to show them how they can apply what they learn to their everyday environm

In my experience, children do not all learn at the same pace. My teaching philosophy is to work with children at the level they are at - not where they are "supposed to be at". I think all children deserve all the help and resources that are available to assist them in learning. I would like to be a part of that help and be able to help children where they each need it because all children are capable of learning and growing. I have several years of experience as a teacher and working with young children. I have tutored elementary aged children in reading, writing and math. My degree in Human Development focused primarily on early childhood development. My passion is working with children and helping them develop and grow.

A degree in Bioethics reflects the importance I place on interdisciplinary studies. As an undergraduate, I completed all of the Pre-medicine requirements with the exception of a few labs. I believe literature and philosophy to play an essential role in all our respective endeavors but found in lacking in a Biology major. Thus, I took it upon myself to develope my own major which integrated the sciences and the humanities. After college I taught as a substitute teacher and have experience working with children of all levels of intelligence and of all different backgrounds. I can provide tutoring assistance for college and graduate level courses in law and literature. I am able to provide assistance for a variety of college level courses from Biology to Philosophy. I can edit and proof graduate and college-level works for any class. Learning to write well will impress your professors and g

After graduating from college with my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, I taught a year of Sp. Ed.,at the elementary level. I returned to school and earned my M.A. in Psychology. I then taught elementary Sp. Ed. for two more years. Shortly after, I began homeschooling my own children. My oldest is now in high school and has been homeschooled the entire time. We have tackled various subjects including Spanish, Algebra, Physical Science, Astronomy, etc. etc. etc. I have also worked as a paid tutor and teach homeschooling classes from pre-K through high school levels. I love teaching all ages, nearly all subjects. I understand that everyone has different styles of learning. When teaching to a group, ideally all styles would be touched on (auditory, visual, hands-on). When working one-on-one, though, it is possible to teach towards that individual's particular style of learning. Thi
