I hear and I forget. I see and I remember.I do and I get it.

I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall.
The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.

While completing my B.A. in Management at Eckerd, I learned how to write effectively and enhanced my understanding of grammar, mathematics, history, social studies and economics. As a volunteer tutor at a public school and at my church, I began to develop my teaching skills. These rewarding experiences motivated me to become a full-time teacher. Teaching English and Learning Strategies for four years has taught me how to address students’ individual needs. I enhanced my knowledge further by successfully completing two American Literature courses last summer. I continue volunteer teaching children and young adults at two different organizations.
I discovered my love of teaching when I started volunteering as a reading tutor and youth group leader. I am most effective when I work with students in a one-on-one or small group setting, which allows me to focus on individual students’ ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate, I worked as a volunteer tutor in the Robles Park/Seminole Heights area for two years. I tutored kids in math, science, English, and social sciences. I also tought sunday school in my church where I was involved in designing the curriculum and planning lessons. I am also an experienced substitute teacher. I've been recently certified to teach social science's in grades 6-12 by the Florida Department of Education.
My teaching style varies depending on who I am teaching and what I am teaching. The consistent skills I use in teaching are getting people to develop and use different skills, particularly learning material and being able to apply it to life, ensuring people, and learning analytical (problem solving) skills. My goals include not only teaching material and skills that will help students, but truly making a profound difference in their lives.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is entirely dependent upon my learner. Reflective practice guides my analysis of an individual's abilities, interests and potential which in turn guides my own instructional practice. While some learner's do require discipline and a strict agenda, I frequently relinquish powers to the learner in an effort to fully engage them in their own learning (while maintaining teacher authority of course). Through instructional facilitation, constructive practice and reflective play I look to encourage a well-rounded experience to advocate the love of learning to my student.
My experience in education is at once formal & casual, specific & broad. From working in the school setting with reading intensive students to conducting experiments and demonstrations on the floor of the MOSI science museum, I have gained a world of knowledge on teaching methodology and student assessme ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching. My style tends to be very hands-on, drawing analogies from many areas to clarify student understanding. I do this through games and word play. I usually utilize mnemonic devices to facilitate memorization of difficult concepts.
I have always excelled at mathematics. I once was certified K-12 in math. I have taught math at the high school level and have tutored adults prepping for the GRE. My degree in Humanities was fulfilled by taking coursework in American Literature and English, which I have also taught at a local career college.

I love working and learning with students of all ages. I enjoyed working in a magnet high school that concentrates on leadership, career development, and breaks the mold teaching methods. I earned a Masters degree in Library Information Science and now work as a School Librarian and Technology Coordinator. Elementary school libraries/tech labs are a happening place! During these years, I also worked as an in home tutor through Get Smart, tutored with Sylvan Learning Center, and shared a classroom with another high school English teacher at Night School. I find it very satisfying to work with students as they supplement their education.
A positive environment and methodology is very important in the learning experience - especially if that learning experience is rooted in frustration. I do my best to connect the concept to a student's personal experience so they may relate and bu ... read more

My goal is to make certain that I know each child's own particular learning style and use the tools to make him or her successful. I use a variety of strategies, especially in writing, to make certain that students know how to write successfully. I use several graphic organizers for teaching the writing process and work with students until they find one that is a good fit for their learning style. I also believe in incorporating technology to help them become better writers through the use of online materials as well. I believe in finding the best approach for the student to help achieve success.
I have 14 years of teaching experience in secondary and post-secondary education in the fields of English/Language Arts, Social Studies/History, and a minor in French.

Maria Montessori, one of the most powerful women in the foundation of educational philosophy, once said "Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life.” Each child must be seen as the individual that they are. Special attention needs to be placed on a child's growth both physically and emotionally and the education of that particular child should be the focus of the teacher. Each student should be viewed as a success.Focus should be placed on a child's strengths while working to build and boost those areas which are not their strongest. As a teacher, you have the power to make an impact.

I have not had any formal experience teaching however I did take two semesters of early childhood education in college as well as two semesters of internship in elementary schools. I have tutored several students including my younger brother and his classmates. I feel that my broad education and personal experience as well as my personality encourages as well as inspires the children I have tutored. I tutored students in English, Algebra and Geometry.
I love interacting with children. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn any subject given the approprate attention and attitude. The greatest pleasure for me is seeing the faces of these children when they understand something that they were having difficulty with. My overall goal and objective is to just to help and if I can reach one child I would consider that a success.

I am most comfortable teaching with prek-5th grade students, because that is my area of expertise. I love teaching these age groups because they are so impressionable and some of them still have that child like innocence that hasn't been stripped from them yet. My goal is to make all of my students feel safe and secure, but at the same time they should be getting an education not having to worry about their home life or what their wearing or who is looking at them. My goal is to get them to focus on the schoolwork ad realize their full potential which is outside of this classroom

My teaching style is very specific to each student I tutor. I try to tailor my thoughts so that any student at any level in the subject can understand me. At the teaching center, the focus was to help guide the student to get the correct answer and not just give the answer. Sometimes the thinking process to achieving the correct answer is more important than the answer itself. I also try using diagrams and figures when they are called for to explain some of the topics. I frequently use positive reinforcement so the student feels even more encouraged to learn.

As much as I love to learn, I love to teach! I am passionate about working with students at the high school and college level, as an instructor, mentor, and advisor. It's of primary importance to me to reach and make learning accessible to each student in the classes I teach. I very much enjoy the opportunity to help students develop not only study skills, but also career focus and professionalism. Many of my high school math students could pinpoint the exact day on which they were "turned off" to math, typically due solely to the attitude of a teacher. Not every student will be gifted in my area of expertise, but with patience and respect, I am able to help each learner succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had the opportunity to work for private educational settings in Hillsborough County, as a Teacher Assistant. I have a Science degree with Major in Mathematics and experience tutored college and behavior problems student. I had most of the time successful experience with the students because I able to identified what they really need to understand their subject.
I derive great satisfation when I see my student learning their subject. We never should not assume that any child does not have the the skills to learn. We need to find ways and alternatives that could help them. Every student have the capacity to learn. We need to be open and use any tools available as a computer, softwares and a good attitude.
