I have been a high school Spanish teacher for the past two and a half years here in Florida. Before that I taught English as a Foreign language to adolescents and adults at a language school in Mexico and I tutored children at an orphanage as well. I have substitute taught for two years in Ohio and I have tutored Spanish and English as well in Ohio. I have attended University for a year in Mexico studying Spanish during my undergraduate studies. I studied teaching English as a Second Language at the graduate level in Ohio for two semesters and it really improved my understanding of how to teach English by only using the target language. I have many materials and techniques to teach Spanish or English in an engaging style that works! I love vocabulary, grammar and games! I really believe that increasing student speaking time over teacher speaking time is the key when learning a new

I feel that I am a natural educator. I often find my self teaching people simple tasks at work, or being called upon by friends and family members to assist them, or their children with their homework. I like to keep learning fun and interesting for all students. I believe that if you invoke an emotional response, like happiness, when you are teaching something, the pupil is much more likely to retain the information. All through high school and college I was a tutor. I have taken numerous writing extensive courses. This qualifies me to tutor English. I have also taken many courses that concentrated on Social Studies. Science was always one of my favorite courses in high school, therefore I took a few science courses in college as well. I have previously tutored students in test preparation, and I have taken the FCAT myself. Math was another strong subject of mine, and I have also tutore

I have been teaching for six years. I currently teach third grade at Edgewood Academy in Fort Myers, FL. I hold my professional teaching certificate in Florida and I am a highly qualified teacher. I am currently a doctoral student at Novasoutheastern University. The focus of my research is on reading. I am a firm believer in research based teaching. I combine direct instruction with constructivist methods of teaching. I also take a humanistic approach to motivate my students to learn. I take the time to learn about my student's interests and background knowledge so I can tailor my instruction to each student's needs and interests as much as possible. I also believe in adding fun and humor to learning, which has made the learning experience a very positive one for my students.

I prefer a very one on one style where I can figure out where the student currently is in the subject. I like to try to cater my teaching style to each students personality so that learning can be easy and fun. I often tutored fellow students through my high school career. I mostly focused on Reading, English, History and Science. Rarely did I tutor in Mathematics. I received my Educational Paraprofessionals certification in May of 2009, scoring one point shy of perfect. The certification allows me to be a teachers assistant in side classrooms in Lee County Florida.

I alwasys like math and science, that why I choose to be an Engineer. I always convince my kids that math is part of everyday activity, everyday life. I love helping my friends in math because that is my passion. I have earned a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering that qualify to be the tutor that you need. Moreover, I always tried the unfortunate haitian kids whom parents cannot afford to help. With basic algebra, calculus one, calculus two, calculus three, differencial equation along with vector analysis and other advanced math, I am confident that I can help out.

The definition of success varies from person to person, from situation to situation, from school to school, from goal to goal. A success story that I am proud to repeat to all who will listen occurred during the 2003-2004 school year. I had a group of 50 awnery, rambunctious, and extremely diverse eighth graders. These eighth graders were highly motivated. Unfortunately they were not motivated in the area of English, or responsibility, dependability, perseverance, or respect. Though these students had an abundance of creativity, knowledge, and ability, they lacked the focus and direction to use it TOWARD their education rather than AGAINST it. Through a lot of modeling, practice, encouragement, praise, and I'll admit, a lot of begging at times, these students began to become self-advocates for their own education. They began clearly seeing their education as an investment

Teaching young children takes dedication and respect. As a teacher, parent, tutor, cargiver, or whatever role one is in a young child's early years is also an example and a role model. Children have to trust you, feel comfortable with you, and must like you in order for them to respond to you. During positive interactions with elementary school students I also work on communication, social, and emotional skills. My goal is to provide an easier method for struggling students to learn without the frustration. That was exactly what I did for my daughter. I believe that young children are our future and have to be prepared for every challenge in the 21st century. Having an associate degree in both the Paralegal and Early Childhood Education fields motivates me to stand up for the rights of children and to work with and teach young children as they grow and learn.

I hold a BA in Early Childhood, studied Communications, and absolutely love teaching. I do not teach in a classroom, however, I teach in the corporate world, which has given me the opportunity to learn new challenges and achieve different goals. When I started my career teaching, I taught Pre K – 1st grade. When I decided to change careers, I didn't want to give up teaching completely; my passion is to help kids achieve their academic goals and boost their self-confidence. I've tutored students in English, mathematics (including Calculus), reading basics, writing skills, and computer learning programs. Sometimes a child's obstacle is not always an academic challenge. A truly talented educator looks beyond the letter grade and must genuinely understand the student as a person and his/her life. Don't we all respond to someone who truly cares about our well being and performance? I pre

My style of teaching is very, for lack of a better term, chameleon like. I am firm, yet fun. I am able to register with each and every student on many levels. Not once have I come across a student that has not liked my person from day one. I execute memory drills by focusing on repetitive learning skills. I help my students learn new words every day. I have them keep journals to chart their learning and so that they may see and others may see their progression throughout the years. I have my students wrote and recite essays to the class and parents. I motivate by example and teamwork. I have been awarded “Do the Right Thing” for the heart that goes into my teachings. I portray the ability to accomplish any task. My students are also required to provide community service. I will help pave the way for successful role models and leaders in our community, one heart at a time. I do not posses

As an English Education major, I have had numerous encounters in the classroom with each of my classroom practicums. After completing my degree in the fall of 2009, I will have over three semesters of classroom experience, working with students from the sixth grade to the twelfth grade. I have also worked as a childcare provider for several years, in addition to tutoring both Math and English as a part-time job. Throughout my studies I have learned that all students learn differently. When teaching in a classroom, I will have to discover the way each student learns individually. An important aspect of my teaching experience has been to get down on that students level, and look at the struggles each student has in the classroom. I modify lessons in order to have each student adapt them to his or her own learning style. I believe that each student is willing to learn, but needs to di

In working with children I have learned that it is important to be excited about what you are teaching. That excitement is contagious and creates a desire to self learn and creates long term study habits. That excitement will be reflected in a students' progress as they gain more knowledge about a certain subject. My goal is to inspire a child to realize what they are able to accomplish through hard work and fun. During my years as an undergraduate student I took on extensive study habits that included working in study groups and tutoring other classmates who were struggling with material. In my undergraduate experience I have acquired the knowledge and skills necessary to comprehend extensive material including math, physics, chemistry, and life sciences. As an honors student I was required to speak in front of large groups of people and explain complex subjects in areas that I had rese

As a United States Air Force Academy graduate, I believe in the value of leadership, quality teaching and training. I have a BS in Basic Sciences; my strengths are in math, science and writing. I have strong spatial orientation skills and have written analyses of world military operations and political situations for the U.S. Air Force general staff. I have been a NAUI scuba instructor since 1991, a trumpet teacher for several years, and an inorganic chemistry and algebra tutor for the last year. I think learning and discovering is a "magical" experience. My memories of the first time I learned about the solar system and space exploration was mind-boggling. That is what I seek to bring to students--to find their interests and develop them so they have the drive to learn.
