I received my BS degree in Math Education in Spring of 2001 at Florida State University. While at FSU I worked in the Math Help Center for three months. I taught math for two years and decided to choose a different career path in Actuarial Mathematics. I am currently finishing my master's degree at Florida State University. For two years I tutored math at all levels at Sylvan Learning Center in Tallahassee. In that time I learned different things related to presenting the math in a way that can be understood regardless of the level of the student. Mostly I focus on explaining the most important steps of a particular skill and then guiding the student to developing their understanding of that skill. I like to break down whatever skill I'm teaching in the simplest form at first. This means explaining the concept of the skill in a way that the student can understand what it is we are

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 way that is most effective for the individual. I have a strong sense of academic excellence and try to instill the core values of diligence, focus, and perseverance on each student. I also try to make learning enjoyable by providing real world examples and reasons for why we need to learn what we are required to learn. Even though my educational background is in science and math, I place significant emphasis on the importance of having good English grammar, writing, and reading skills and being generally well-rounded academically. 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, an

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.

While earning my degree in English, I developed teaching and communication skills through both curricular and extra-curricular experiences. As an intended Secondary Education minor, I took many classes in education, including a middle and high school practicum. I also tutored students in grammar and composition, as well as foreign students in conversational English. I strongly considered teaching as a profession after graduation, but I wanted to earn my law degree first. While studying for the LSAT, I took an online course, mastering test-taking skills in all three parts: logic “games,” analytical reasoning, and reading comprehension. Graduating summa cum laude from the University of Florida, with extensive work in research, analysis, and writing, these skills came easy to me. Currently, I am a teaching assistant for Legal Writing and Research and thoroughly enjoy helping 1L’s also

I was employed as a Physical Education, Pre-k Counts and After School Lead Teacher. I accepted this position because of the emphasis on helping youth develop their educational, emotional and social skills. My experience with Porter’s Daycare & Educational Center and several other organizations has afforded me the opportunity to become familiar with the many challenges, responsibilities and positive experiences while working with youth. My past experiences include numerous years of working with youth of various ages. As an elementary and pre-k counts teacher, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children who possess and present different observations and realities of life. In my teaching positions, my goals and responsibilities were to provide a supportive, enriching and caring environment that allows children to play and learn at their own developmental pace.

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. This is where I feel I differentiated myself from my classmates and colleagues. I have been successful with my students because I take the time to get to know a student’s strengths, weaknesses and interests. If my student is excited to come talk to me about one of their hobby’s, that means to me they are excited to come learn and grow as a student and a person. Most recently as a College Reach Out Program (CROP) mentor I have developed un-motivated students into happy and driven students and to me there is no greater gift. 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 Socia

I truly enjoy the material that I teach, and I think that is why students enjoy learning from me. Often times students have anxiety about a subject, telling themselves that it is too difficult or too boring for them to master. I try to make learning fun by helping them see each math problem as a puzzle waiting to be solved. I go over the ground rules with them one step at a time, so that it is easier to understand. I believe that with patience and practice every student can learn. I strive to build confidence in my students. My satisfaction comes from seeing children understand concepts that they once thought were too difficult to comprehend. As the daughter of a principal, education has always been an important part of my life. While I was a high school student, I volunteered my time tutoring my peers after school in English and mathematics. I was the Valedictorian of my class,

I have excellent writing and editing skills as well as experience tutoring all ages in a variety of subjects. I have a love for education that I would like the chance to pass on to others. I am a very hands on and visual teacher that believes the best way to learn is by seeing and doing things yourself. In order to provide the best teaching expereince I would teach through multiple examples and putting difficult subject matter into a context the student can understand and visualize.

Due to the influence of my parents, who are both math educators, I have always wanted to teach. My first job was on the faculty of a teachers’ university in China, where I taught computer science courses. In 1996 I came to the United States to study mathematics, and earned a Master's degree from Indiana University. While I was studying at IU, I was a teaching assistant and also tutored during the summer. Since then I have taught Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry at a high school, as well as Intermediate Algebra and Finite Math at the college level. In addition, I have experience as a classroom instructor and as a tutor with Kaplan, Inc. I love to help people of all ages with their math. It is really rewarding when you show someone how to solve their problems, and then see them smile and feel relieved. I am friendly, considerate, thorough, and easy going. My belief is that when the rig

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.
