Whatever I feel works best with the student.

Super tutor!

I place a high value on formal education and believe strongly in lifelong learning, for the betterment of the individual and, ultimately, for society. While raising three young children, I obtained my undergraduate degree in business administration. In later acquiring a law degree, I was introduced to the rigorous demands of such study and to the fascinating arena of reasoning and analytical thinking required by this discipline. I have tutored young children intermittenly over several years, with one stint of four years length as a Literacy Volunteer teaching English to children of war refugees.
I enjoy teaching and observing my students' different learning styles. I respect each student's individual method of assimilation. I work hard to accommodate his or her particular needs. I delight in the dynamics of the classroom and strongly believe that I can make a difference in whether ... read more

I am very passionate about helping students learn. It is my belief that each student has his/her own learning style in which they process information.

It is my goal to help student comprehend that which is being taught and be able to enjoy their learning experience.

As a recent graduate of Florida State University, I have always been a student looking to excel in all subjects. My primary areas of expertise happen to be Math and English. I have always earned the highest averages on research papers and look to both expound upon this knowledge as well as share with others the techniques used to master the subjects of English and Math. I Graduated from Florida State University in April 2008 and was actually able to become gainfully employed with a Fortune 400 organization to gain experience in Coporate Accounting and Finance for 2 years. I am able to apply knowledge I received from FSU to REAL WORLD Scenarios.
I love to teach and share information with others giving them an opportunity to excel. My most profound technique is to apply things the student loves to do or hear about to expound upon knowledge that the student may not be as comfortabl ... read more

I enjoy teach with all different age levels. Most recently, I taught 4th grade science through the FSU Teach Program. It was fun and really showed me how to teach students and make the lessons engaging and fun. Its important to keep the child focused. My goal is to make sure a student learns something new everyday that she/he will remember.
I achieved an AA degree at Florida Community College at Jacksonville. I am currently continuing my education at Florida State University where I am pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Biology. I will graduate in Spring of 2010. After, I will continue to Dental School to become a dentist.

I follow the teaching strategy of Total Physical Response with commands, and TPR for stories. I find that this gets the students engaged with the foreign language, and they start communicating in Spanish faster than if other teaching styles or strategies were used. I have had good success with TPR and TPRS. The focus of this strategy is teaching language the way a child learns his/her own language, starting with commands, and adding nouns, and adjectives to the verbal commands. Then, we progress into stories, and students interact with the words and phrases of the stories.
I have always been fascinated with the Spanish language: its phonology, expressions, and many forms of the Spanish language. That love of Spanish caused me to formally study the language, and earn a B.A. and an M.A. in Spanish. My interest in Spanish also took me to Paraguay, and Mexico, where I lived for over th ... read more

As stated earlier, All children can learn. I believe that all children have different learning abilities and it takes a positive ad patient teacher to notice and react. I am very patient, caring, and supportive. If a child is struggling to master certain objective, then it is my responsibility to provide all avenues to ensure success. There is no "u" in team. We will all work together to achieve the possible. I work hard with all my students and I never give up. I am an encouraging teacher who insists on making learning fun and interesting. I am a young teacher with a lot of energy. Therefore, I am more than willing to energize all children and encourage them to make learning a sport.
I have been in the teaching field for 2 years now and I love it. Although I've taught during VBS and other church functions, I have been in the Gadsden County School District for 2 years. I e ... read more

My role as a teacher is one where I facilitate a process of discovery. When a concept is presented in a lesson, it is followed by practice. In my class, there is room for risk-taking, and the mistakes only help to clarify the idea or concept. I approach the teaching of Reading as a Whole Language process, and also as a set of applied skills. Even though phonics, vocabulary, context clues, and other skills are important, reading for meaning is the ultimate goal.
Summary of Experience I have taught for the last three years (2005-2008) at an Elementary school in Palm Beach County. I taught third grade. This is the grade level where students are expected to pass the Reading portion of the FCAT test in order to be promoted to the next grade. Therefore, one of my main responsibilities was to maintain records of the students’ progress. Prior to that, I was a substitute teacher in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that every child can succeed with strategies to support their learning. My experience with students who do not know English and children who have disabilities, has really given me the opportunity to learn strategies to help all types of children learn. I have a proven record of helping struggling students to raise their FCAT scores. My number one priority when tutoring for the past ten years has been to motivate and get children interested in school. Many students need a little help with organizational skills, and after that, I show them how much fun learning can be! After transferring from the classroom to the State, I really miss working with kids, and the satisfaction of seeing a student's face when they really “get it.”
I have been passionate about teaching for as long as I can remember. I earned both my Bachelor and Master degrees in the field of Education, plus I am ... read more

For three years at Florida State University I was enrolled in an excellent teacher education program. At the end of the program I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Social Science Education. While at Florida State University I received three certifications, Social Science Education (6-12), Professional Educator for (All Grades) and Integrated Curriculum (5-9). Obtaining the Integrated Curriculum certification made it so I can be certified to mentor and tutor students in all major subjects. Since then I have worked with multiple young students on both strengthening their education and building character. I feel that I develop not only better students, but better young men and women.
Each student learns in their own way and sometimes that way is not in a classroom setting. A teacher to me is someone who has developed a way to make each student understand the subject matter. Th ... read more
