After graduating cum laude from Yale University with a PhD in Eating, I interned for two years at Dunkin Donuts, fine tuning my skills in eating pastries. I've also spent two summers eating in various food malls, specializing in China One, Chick Fil-A, and Baskin Robins. I have tutored students Overeating, Pizza, and Alka Seltzer. I believe all children can enjoy eating broccoli. I find this works best if the broccoli is smothered with cheese and accompanied on the plate with something fried. I have found that overeating is a very effective way to teach the student dangerous gastric consequences. I demonstrate this by ordering pizza, allowing them to eat as much as they want, and then immediately afterwards giving them free reign to various quarts of ice cream. I know I can make a difference in every students' stomach.

I have recently graduated from college with the skills and knowledge of how to teach children. I have earned a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. I have been student teaching for the past year. However, I have also completed several practicums within the school district. I have worked with children my entire life as a nanny, a coach, and volunteer. Teachers need to be well versed in being able to teach a lesson in every learning style. A teacher must be able to identify each student’s personality and niche for learning. Research has proven that students learn in a multitude of styles. It is vital for a teacher to take the time and assess how each student learns best. An effective teacher will then apply that information into every lesson to insure quality learning. Teachers must bridge the gap and provide opportunities for every child to be successful. By using Howard Gardner'

I do so like to teach with positivity, listening, understanding but also limit-setting and consistency. I like to explore creativity and theater and music and relate it to the students current interests, making it fun! I very much enjoy working with kids of many different nationalities and cultures when given the opportunity, but enjoy every student for what their unique differences bring to the world and like to explore these differences by acceptance and compassion, while striving to create new ways of learning. My experience has been varied. I taught many learning impaired as well as advanced and average high school and middle school students from 5th to 12th grades. I also have travelled internationally (mostly in the summers, of course)a great deal, which has added greatly to my experiences and ability to communicate.

I have always had a gift and natural ability to teach children of all ages. I am able to make them feel comfortable to express who they are and what is needed to help them learn. I use this to nurture what is aready there and to raise them to their highest potential. I allow them the time and give the guidance necessary for them to enjoy learning! I know they will let their own abilities shine with the environment to do so. I am there to help along the way and to provide them with the tools to keep it going! My academic and performing arts accomplishments awarded me several scholarships to Brandeis University, where I studied Early Education, Elementary Education and History, graduating in 1996 with my BA degree and teaching certification. Throughout my college years, I worked part time as an infant and toddler teacher at a local pre-school, taught as a substitute teacher for local

As a Pinellas County School District Title 1 teacher I have taught and tutored elementary school students in Reading, Writing, and Mathematics. I have taught kindergarten through fifth-grade students individually, or in groups of four to six pupils. I particularly love writing plays with my second-grade kids! They were prolific writers under my direction, and enthusiastic performers! At Philadelphia's Temple University, I earned a B.A. in Journalism, and also took graduate level elementary education courses at Saint Joseph's University, also in Pennsylvania. Additionally in the Keystone state, I was a newspaper reporter, freelance writer, and advertising copywriter. I love working with elementary, and jr. high school students. Kids love me because I am very friendly, encouraging, extremely patient, and a lot of fun. My lessons are highly creative, and engaging. Students especial

My teaching style is very hands on. I believe in using manipulatives to help engage a child better. I feel like learning can be fun and it is up to us to make it that way. I believe all children have different styles of learning and it is up to us as teachers to ensure we are adapting our lessons and styles to accomodate all children. I currently have a BS degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in Early Childhood and a minor in Psychology. The program at Pittsburg State University was very intensive and provided me hands-on experience working in child care facilities, creating developmentally appropriate lessons for preschoolers and working closely with families. I have tutored students in college and post college.

It is my passion to open the world of reading and drama up to students of all ages. Whether you have a five year old who is struggling to keep up at the kindergarten level, you are an adult who just never had a knack for reading comprehension or reading aloud, or you'd like to hone your acting skills, I would be thrilled to find a technique for teaching that will fit your personal style of learning. I understand that repetition and drills is not the best method of teaching for most individuals and is certainly not helpful when we are trying to make those reading skills second nature. Let’s work together to make you or your student a more comfortable reader or actor.

My teaching style would challenge the students and encourage them to reason. I would devise relevant and engaging exercises that would help create critical thinkers and problem solvers. I would try to provide meaning and purpose to learning by connecting it to the children’s lives. I would encourage the students to learn by doing. I would try to make the lessons relevant and interesting and the activities enjoyable. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree and I just recently received my teaching certification. I want to make a difference in a child’s life and I am excited about working with children. My daughter struggled in school because she had a different learning style and was only taught in one capacity. I worked with her and she was able to succeed. Each child is unique and a teacher should be able to recognize and be sensitive to the individual student needs. I want to fulfill those ne

As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In addition, I taught Drama, Speech, Creative Writing, Script Writing and Math at local Cooperative Groups in the state of Florida. The growth that each student achieves is my best reward. I love learning and love to pass that on. In tutoring, I first work at instilling confidence and apply small victories to achieve that goal. I find the learning style of the student and modify the information in ways that can make them more successful. I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of yo
