As a teacher I strive for fair but firm. I have certain expectations for my students and I try to the best of my abilities to help them succeed. I firmly believe in the idea that no two children learn alike and therefore I use multiple teaching strategies when implementing lesson plans with my students. I have a good sense of humor. I have found it to help tremendously when de-escalating serious and unsafe situations that may arise. I believe my students have also seen my sincerity in their education and therefore try harder than they might if they felt I did not care. I have my degree in business. After ten years, I wanted a career that would make a difference for others, not just myself. As a father of two, I have coached kids and taught Sunday School for many years and love working with children. I went back to school to obtain my teaching degree and certification. I taught middle sch

I first assess the child's knowledge (test them) and their study routine. Following, I create an individualized plan of study for him/her. What material does the child enjoy? How would he/she like to study? My goal is to create a fun learning environment therefore the child retains the information and wants to continue to learn. Games, pneumonic, songs, dice, cards, etc. are a part of my teaching style. I tutored a 10 year boy in all subjects for about 2 years Monday through Friday which was a fantastic experience; he is now at Baylor University in Texas. I substituted 5th and 6th grade and tutored one-on-one students whom required additional assistance. I recently tutored the FCAT curriculum to students ages 8-15 as well as foreign students and a child with ADHD. The positive feedback from the parents and students has made this position enjoyable.

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. 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 obtained two degrees in psychology, a BS and an MA. Prior to my training in psychology, I trained for two years in engineering, giving me extensive experience in math and physics. During graduate school I gained extensive experience in writing essay and research papers. I have tutored fellow students throughout high school, college, and graduate school. For the last four months I have taught reading development to students of all ages, from pre-readers ages 4-5 to a speed reading course for college students and adults. I have worked extensively with children of varying ages and enjoy working with, and teaching, a variety of age groups. 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 info

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

I am patient, flexible, enthusiastic and friendly. I put the student first; the syllabus second. I do not want to lose the student and will backtrack to consolidate the fundamentals. I strive to avoid talking down to the student but rather encourage him/her with what they have to offer. I emphasize positives. My approach is explanatory rather than judgmental. As a Ph.D. level student in Sociology (ABD) with all exams passed, I have 2 years of successful formal teaching experience at the college level. In research papers I have demonstrated excellent grammar and writing skills. My linguistic training includes 5 years of Latin all of which makes me a very language conscious person. I have tutored students in German, English, French, Sociology/Anthropology. Furthermore I have extensive exposure to Korean, Thai, and Japanese. My multilingual training has sensitized me to inference-related
