Eperienced results-based tutoring

I believe that the learner and instructor must work collaborative in order to be most effective. I believe in applied learnign which means that not only are the basics and mechanics necessary to form a foundation, but the learner must be able to see how the learning can benefit him or her now and in the future. I lean on case studies and items in the news to maximize interest in the learning program. Additionally, I am a consistent user of positive reinforcement. When the learner errs, I believe in facilitating their reasoning to discovering the best solution.
I have been blessed with an inventoiry of skills that can apply across many topics: - Music - can teach singing and percussion - English - I am an author of 2 books, and have always been involved in editing and creative writing - Psychology - Much of my career has been based on managing human behavior - Speech - I am a ... read more

Brain Builder-Building the Brain without the Pain

I have learned through my experiences of teaching individuals with disabilities that a great teacher needs to be flexible in their teaching styles. I am very self-reflective and am constantly looking for ways to help students overcome difficulties with learning. I have a very energetic teaching style and am enthusiastic about learning different subjects as well.
I have been in the teaching field for close to 10 years. My experience has consisted of teaching Special Education and Adults with Disabilities. I also have had experience teaching Elementary and Middle School students in Reading and Math. I have a Masters degree in English Education from the University of South Florida. I am also a Florida Certified teacher in English 6-12 with Reading and ESOL Endorsements and ESE K-12.

My comments on tutoring Writing : Selecting, writing process, editing, publishing easy essays through research projects

I was a teaching assistant throughout high school. I graduated Magna Cum Laude and was inducted into Kappa Delta Pi. I was selected to teach intensive intervention and pursued my Master’s degree with a concentration in remedial reading. During the past four years I have taught 2nd-adult English Language Learners and tutored K-adult students in all disciplines.
Helping learners find solutions to their problems is my passion. My greatest strength is compassion. I believe that anyone can achieve. I enjoy helping others discover their innate joy of learning. I thrive on seeing the "light" in a learner's eyes. It drives me with a determination to find the best way to help each individual become a lifelong learner.

More About This Tutor...

I truly enjoy working with students of all ages. It doesn't matter what they don't know because I believe anyone can be taught anything, at least as long as you have the right teacher and materials at your disposal. I believe students are like little sponges. They're taking in everything around them. Obviously, if you fill their heads with garbage, they will learn garbage. However, if you fill their heads with quality information, you explain it in a way that they understand, and you make it fun for them to learn, then they will learn everything you're trying to teach. There are thousands of educators, but only a few real teachers who can get a message across in such a way that the student doesn't just do the work, they UNDERSTAND what they're doing and why. As far as I'm concerned, if a student doesn't learn something, it's not because he didn't try. It's because I failed to teach him i ... read more

Experienced language arts and English language instructor

I taught language arts for one year at Middleton High School in Tampa; 2005-2006. I've served several long-term assignments as a substitute teacher: the latest involved taking over the classes of a fashion marketing teacher as well as a sports marketing class. I also tutored over seven students -ages ranging from 7 to 14 -in home settings and taught several after-school programs for a local elementary school.
I feel far more effective teaching one on one

My comments on tutoring Writing : Wrote for a wide array of employers, freelance managers

Offer ten years of combined corporate communications and recent teaching experience. Taught the language arts at a large high school in Tampa until 2006. Asked to instruct one-to-one, often, in my current position with Kelly Staffing Services -substitute teaching division. Received a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Missouri School of Journalism.
Prefer one-on-one instructional situations. However, I'm proven as a classroom instructor as well. My style leans toward promoting higher level thinking whenever possible.

Experienced Educator who wants your child to love learning.

I have been a full-time classroom teacher at all grade levels for the last 12 years. I also have several years as a substitute teacher. I specialize in differentiating instruction for all learners. In addition, I can teach reading and writing skills using authentic sources and classroom subject matter so that students don't fall behind on content-learning at the expense of practice with unrelated materials.
I have a very engaging manner with students. I feel that learning is a joy, rather than a chore and I try to pass that attitude on to my students. I use frequent checks for understanding and reteaching when necessary. I also believe that a student's own insights and questions can guide learning to its highest levels.
