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 the student becomes engaged in the learning process. 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 Voluntee

I gear my teaching style to the individual I am working with. In 14 years I have learned that even though a method may work for one student, it does not necessarily mean it will work for another. In the first few session I test a small variety of applicable teaching methods and adapt them as time goes on. I have been working with students in both one-on-one and group settings for going on 14 years. I began tutoring groups of children at an inner city after school program in Language Arts and Reading Comprehension. I went into further training at my high school and became a designated math tutor for those in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and Geometry. After high school I revisted my loved for tutoring at Jefferson County Community College where I tutored Reading Comprehension, Composition, and Study Skills. Throughout the years I have tutored a variety of students in various areas through freela

I have always excelled in school. My master's degree GPA is 3.8. my undergraduate degree GPA is 3.85. As a retired marine officer, I have had many opportunities to teach in a military environment. In addition, I served as the School Liaison Officer for the U. S. Naval Base Guantanamo Bay School system for 3 years. During that time I also taught a college freshman English class for Troy State University aboard the base. Upon retirement, I tutored and mentored middle school students for 2 years. I also volunteered 2 years as a Court Appointed Special Advocate for a 3 children. This advocacy involved keeping up with school progress in special programs and assisting the kids to adapt and overcome environmental difficulties. I have owned and operated my own small business (a roller skating rink) for the past 12 years. In the rink, I have regular contact with kids of all ages. I am familiar wi

I own my own science consulting firm and like to dedicate a certain percentage of my time to education and public outreach projects including teaching, mentoring, and tutoring. I have taught high school and college students on and off since 1986 and have had several students go on to VERY successful careers, perhaps one of the best ways to evaluate ones ability as a teacher. My most recent success (2006-07) was a 7th grade C and B student who had straight A's after only two months of working together and finished 7th grade with straight A's. Her confidence level increased dramatically (as noted by her family and friends) and she now has set her sights on Harvard as a real possibility someday. I tailor my teaching style to the student. Throughout the years I have recognized that each student has a different way of learning and I make it my goal to adapt to them, to try to reach them in a

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 Browar

A graduate of Florida State University, I initially started out teaching children and their parents about good eating habits at the Health Dept. I wanted to partake in the school system, so I began teaching as a Title 1 teacher. I was teaching small groups of individuals that needed some extra encouragement to thrive in the general education class. I loved teaching so much that it inspired me to become a Certified ESE teacher. Since my certification, I have enjoyed teaching students in Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Science, and Social Skills. It has been a great reward tutoring and teaching students that thought they never had a chance to succeed! My teaching style is very comforting, fun, and yields results. I know with nurture, time, patience, resources, and love ALL children can learn. I am an advocate of allowing children to try and work independently. I feel giving a child th

I have a passion for teaching and love working with children. I believe any child is capable of learning if the material is presented in a way they understand. I strive hard to find the avenue your child learns best through. I am a very patient, passionate, easy going, and caring individual. I believe all children can learn given the right environment and experience. I believe teaching touches lives and I strive to touch the lives of all my students. Simply put – I enjoy teaching. My two years experience in the classroom consists of teaching Mathematics at all levels, from FCAT Math thru Trigonometry. I hold a certification in Secondary Mathematics and am seeking certification in Integrated Curriculum for middle grades, which would include math, science, social sciences, and language arts. I graduated from Chipola Junior College with an AA in History Education and from Florida St

I have had much education, reading is one of my favorite things to do. Although I was a science major, I did teach throughout my masters degree. Teaching is never simple, there are so many things to learn. I do believe that I would be capable of teaching pretty much anything, and I am very good with children. I can provide any references that you will need. I am a firm believer that one must want to learn in order to be taught. That "want" can be learned over time, and the desire to pass on knowledge and be caring, considerate, and nurturing is part of my makeup. I really love hanging out with kids and seeing the beautiful, innocent way that their minds work. I would love to play a role in making someones life better, and giving the start for productivity.Every child is like a blank slate, and the experiences they have early on make a huge difference.

I have enjoyed each of my teaching and tutoring roles very much. Teaching young people is particulaly rewarding as it provides the opportunity to motovate and make a positive impact on the lives of people who have a long future to give back to society. I have over 37 years experience managing peoply in Supply Chain management and material acquisition. In this role I designed and wrote courses. Using Power Point presentations I taught courses in my field to over 100 students in classes as small as ten to as large as fifty. I also tutored children for two years in the Leon County literacy Volunteer program and one year in the ESOL program. I enjoy teaching and helping young people.

Facilitating thinking and learning is a good descriptor of my teaching style. I listen to the students to find out their interests in order to frame their learning. I use questioning on different levels to generate connections across curriculum areas. I use different ways to present materials: oral, written, read aloud, look at questions before reading. Using a variety of styles, strengths, and interests of the student keeps learning fresh. As an elementary teacher, I have taught in large and small group settings for grades 1-6. I have worked with special groups in my gifted instructor position, individual students that need assistance with reading and primary level math. I have spoken to parent and teacher groups in regard to curriculum and learning environments that facilitate success.

I have extensive experience tutoring college students in mathematics and physics. I have acted as a teacher's assistant at New College of Florida and worked in the TCC math lab. I have also tutored these subjects privately. I believe patience is key when teaching difficult concepts. I also strive to present ideas from varied perspectives. For example, many mathematical constructions can be understood either geometrically, algebraically, or analytically. If a student has trouble with one type of explanation, presenting an alternative technique often leads to a deeper understanding of the material.
