From my many years of teaching experience, I have adopted a few different teaching styles due to the fact that every student learns differently. For instance, some students are very slow learners and some aren't, obviously; and so I may use a different approach based on the student(s) or class I happen to be teaching at the time. I am very flexible when it comes to teaching, and I like to get feedback from my students from time to time, making sure that it's working and they are learning the material like they are supposed to. I am very passionate, very patient and very good when it comes to teaching. I also would like to think that I am a very good teacher, at least that's what I have been told in the past by many of my students. Although I have not taught in the last 2 years, I have been teaching since 1997; I love teaching and I have taught people from all walks of life and students

There are certainly different ways to inform or communicate ideas. The strategy employed in reaching a student(s) is selected on an individual basis, suited to the needs of a child. Teaching is about preparing and showing a person how to extract information and the tools to best achieve that in their own way. The rewards of teaching/tutoring is in watching the children, grow with every lesson and task completed, until they learn how to, on their own. I have found great joy in being able to offer my assistance to children, friends, family, classmates and co-workers in achieving some of their goals. Encouragement, Commitment and Belief, can make the impossible - POSSIBLE !!

Math has been known to be a very difficult subject for many students of all age groups and backgrounds. I assess each new student I tutor to find their strengths and weaknesses when it comes to mastering the skills necessary for success in Math. I tailor design a plan to achieve success for each individual student. I am very patient and understanding of the unique learning styles of each student and strive to help each one achieve their full potential in their math courses. I know I make a difference in the lives of the students I tutor and teach and this is the real reward in teaching. I've been tutoring/teaching Mathematics for over 35 years.

I am a firm believer that all children can be good at math. I believe that the key to their success is having a teacher that will take the time to identify their individual learning style and apply it to their lesson planning. Being one on one with a student in a tutoring setting is fantastic because it allows me to completely adapt the lesson to that one individual child. I also believe that math needs to be made as hands-on as possible and interactive as possible. I try to make each lesson as interesting and exciting as possible. Through my experience, I have found that most students learn more through the constructivist approach, most often when they are discovering things themselves. I am a last term senior at Broward College that will be earning a Bachelor’s in Science in Secondary Mathematics Education (grades 6-12) on December 17, 2010.

I like to teach by example and immersion. So much of what schools preach today is rote memorization, and to a certain degree, this cannot be avoided. But whenever possible, I like to try and find real world applications and demonstrations to get my lessons across to my pupil. Throughout high school and college, I've always excelled in my school work. I was president of the math club and often tutored my peers during my spare time. The University of Florida has provided me with a well rounded education, and I feel myself knowledgable in many areas, from languages like french, spanish and hindi, to the sciences like chemistry, biology, and physics. I'm also very familiar with writing term papers.
