I find great satisfaction in helping others learn. I know that not everyone learns the same way. I believe my job as a tutor is to try to help the student find his/her best method of learning. I believe in teaching by example - solving problems together and then challenging the individual to go at it on their own. I believe in creating interest by presenting problems in several ways and using terms which best relate to the student. I believe education to be the single most important way to help reach our potential. During my years at Florida Atlantic University, I learned that there are no barriers for our abilities to learn. I have earned a bachelor degree in accounting which was due to my love of both mathematics and business. I graduated with honors (Magna Cum Laude) in May 2003. While persuing my degree I tutored fellow college students in Algebra, chemistry, biology, physics, accoun

My teaching style is definately dependant on the student's learning style. Some people need to see the answer and reverse engineer it to understand. Some people need to visually work problems out. My bread and butter would probably have to be teaching with logic. With the basic principles of logic, an individual can learn the basics to almost anything. Another style/gift of mine is cutting out the extra material. When instructors hand students material to learn, there is a large amount of information that is not critical. I find and relay the critical pieces. I do not really know, sometimes you just have to hit a student from multiple angles to get something to stick. I have always been at the top of my classes related to math and sciences. Doing so has forced me to be looked up to by fellow students. It seemed that students eventually ended up asking me the same questions as the teacher

Teaching is about much more than the transfer of information from one individual to another. As educators we are given an opportunity to play a unique role in helping students discover and achieve new potential. With the passing along of information, educators shape the way that students understand the world and their place in it. But much more is conveyed through teaching than just information. The teacher’s attitude or way of being toward the subject matter is communicated as well. Certainly there are numerous other factors that contribute to a student’s willingness and ability to explore and grow as a person. But I don’t think it can be denied that a teacher can have a powerful impact on a student’s growth as well. I intend to take up these principles and utilize my role as a teacher to aid students in their growth as individuals and in discovering new possibilities for themsel

I teach using example and practical use of concepts using practical application techniques. I prefer to relate education to real-world situations that can happen to anyone. For example, reconciling a bank account for a large company is a lot like balancing your own checkbook. I am patient and willing to give my all if the student shows the same level of commitment. I have over 6 years of management accounting experience with increasing responsibilities. I also have financial and statistical analysis experience. I have mentored young accountants in the private sector and enjoy working with young professionals.

My teaching style is compassionate and geared toward each individual student's learning needs. I strive to create learning situations that address the specific needs of each learner. This involves awareness of learning styles, which vary from student to student. My teaching style is also very patient and cognizant of each learner's struggles and obstacles. I will break down difficult tasks into simpler ones in order to make them easier to understand. In all of my endeavors, I do my best to lead by example. I taught fifth grade for four and a half years, and I student taught fifth grade for one additional semester. Soon I will receive my license to teach high school English, and I plan to pursue a career teaching high school English.

My teaching style is determined by the way I conduct my student's learning experience. My style is built from the behavior and actions I take to make the lesson conducive and meaningful for my students. The strategy I use as the teacher can ensure that the appropriate method is used for effective learning to take place. As the teacher my behavior can dictate how the student's behave towards the subject. As a result, in my teaching style I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. This is going to be my sixth year as a science teacher. I began my teaching career back in 2002 when I decided to change careers from the biochemistry field and working as a Research Scientist and moved on to t
