I am a teacher who realizes all students can improve if they receive motivation and instruction appropriate to their specific circumstance. I believe it is important to encourage individuality, creativity, critical thinking, and determination in all subject areas. Ideally, every assignment should be relevant and challenging, but tempered with access to a patient teacher. After graduating with a degree in Elementary Education in 2001, I taught 2nd grade for one year. As a first year teacher, I completed the Teacher Induction Program, also known as the TIP Program. Additionally, I took and passed the following state exams: Professional Ed, Elementary Ed, and Middle Grades Mathematics. A desire to to attain specific math certification arose when I relocated to a different county and accepted a position teaching middle school math. I enjoyed this position very much, but resigned upon the

Additionally, I have served as a reading mentor for a third grade student for 2 years. Finally, I have served my community for over 10 years as a dancing instructor of ballet, tap, and jazz dance.

I believe that each child should be encouraged to face thier challenges, and that they should embrace the learning experience. Overall, I make my

I absolutely love teaching children. What I enjoy the most about teaching is the feeling of accomplishment each and every child displays when they grasp the understanding of their assignment or subject. I am a firm believer that every child learns differently, thats why my approach and teaching method is different for each child. I try to coordinate the things they enjoy the most with the subject they are having difficulties in. For an example, for a child who loves to sing or compose music, but are having difficulties with their vocabulary. I would assist them with composing a song using their vocabulary, so it would be easier for them to comprehend and memorize their vocabulary. During both of my high school and college years,  I have gained extensive experience in volunteering, tutoring and mentoring students in both Volusia and Hillsborough county.

I believe that all students have the ability to learn as long as the environment is positive and conducive to learning. I feel that all students need to not only know how to improve their weaknesses, but they also need to know how to continue to improve their strengths. I know that all students come from different backgrounds and in order to help them learn, the material has to be meaningful and relevant in their lives. My goal in the world of education is to help make a difference. I recently graduated from Stetson University with a Bacehlor of Arts in Elementary Education. Throughout my last 3 years at Stetson I was constantly in the classroom doing one on one tutoring, group tutoring as well as whole class. I completed my internship in a 2nd grade classroom. I have also been involved in music my whole life. I have been singing in choirs for the past 15 years. In high school I was the

I believe in creating a relaxed learning environment with love and patience. A place where children feel safe,understood, and relaxed, so that they can achieve their full learning potential. Throughout my professional and educational experience I have had the opportunity to mentor and teach others around me.

I am very fond of the unit study method that helps students work all aspects of certain skills in one concentrated subject. For instance, studying restaurants and working on math, spelling, descriptive writing, science and nutrition all in one lesson. Being creative yet organized is my style. I like to let the students lead the direction of some of the instruction while providing enough structure to insure successful acquisition of skills. Goals are more easily met when there is a good student teacher relationship. Relationship and trust are the key in my experiences with students. My experience in Title I schools has been very exciting and rewarding. I have been able to use my degree in English as a resource for reading and writing and saw great results as my students' skills and interest levels soared as each year progressed.

I truly believe that an educator's own passion for teaching and life-long learning encourages the student to strive to meet their own academic potential. By introducing and explaining material in an exciting, patient, and positive manner, I have seen students excel beyond expectation. As a student, I witnessed and experienced individuals struggling with different material and with different teaching styles. Therefore, as an educator, I implement a flexible and creative teaching style. I present material on an individualized basis that may incorporate visual-based, auditory-based, engaged, and/or discovery-based teaching methods. In this way, I hope to best accommodate your child's own personal learning style. During the past sixteen years, I have not only strived for academic excellence, but have also enjoyed a passion for learning and educating. My recent graduation from the University

Both my undergraduate and graduate collegiate experiences have given me ample knowledge and skills to draw from with regard to teaching and tutoring. The experience of doing it, however, gave me much more. While I was in graduate school at the University of Texas I tutored women athletes. My teaching career began immediately after I finished graduate school in Austin, Texas. I taught in Austin for a year at Virginia College and then took a teaching job at the Florida Keys Community College. I was a Speech Teacher. Teaching students how to present themselves in verbal and written presentation was rewarding because I knew that I was preparing them for the future. Tutoring and teaching are great because both student and teacher learn; it's a two-way street. I really enjoy teaching and tutoring because not only am I helping others, I am learning as well.

I believe that when teachers raise their expectations of students, the students rise to that level of expectation. All students have the capacity to excel in any subject although their style of learning may differ from other students. When educators take care to find out about a student, including what interests and motivates him, the student is more likely to have successes in class if the educator use the information to hers and the student's advantage. Once a student begin to have successes, they will definitely look forward to performing well and building on that success. As a teacher, I believed that every child, regardless of background, deserved the very best education and should be constantly reminded of the unlimited possibilities that exist so they do not settle for less. While in college, I served as a volunteer and a tutor for adults earning their GED, for elementary students

For many years, I have always equated my personal happiness with my scholastic achievements. As an International Baccalaureate diploma recipient and a graduate of the University of Florida, I continue to strive for excellence when it comes to my education. While in college, I earned a bachelor's degree in political science, which has enabled me to gain an acute understanding of many areas of politics, including public administration, policy formulation, as well as many facets of environmental politics. While pursuing my degree, I presented many reports and wrote dozens of research papers and essays on a wide array of topics which had a direct positive effect on the development of my excellent communication and grammatical skills. I have tutored students on and off for a handful of years now, in math topics like algebra and geometry, as well as Spanish, and English. Teaching is very r
