I was a teacher in New York from 1971 to 1979 at the Junior High School level. I taught typewriting as well as Social Studies and English. In the evenings I taught business subjects to adults. I am proficient in music and am able to teach elementary music as well as elementary math, social studies, keyboarding and English. I have had many years of experience as a teacher and feel very comfortable in the classroom environment. I enjoy teaching and working with children. As far as I'm concerned there is nothing more important than a good education. Because my expectations are high, many of my students strive to meet these expectations and realize they are capable of doing more than they thought they could. I realize not all children learn at the same pace, and am therefore patient and relaxed in my teaching style. There is nothing more satisfying than seeing the light bulb go off i

With degrees from one of the nations top universities, I have many experiences working with students. I have worked with students through Jumpstart (an AmeriCorps program), as a youth camp specialist, and as a after school program coordinator at an elementary school in Naples. I am currently working on a graduate degree in School Counseling. I believe that helping youth succeed to be their best is very important and must be a priority. It is important for all children to have an equal opportunity to learn. This means that I must teach in various styles or to multiple intelligences so that each student is able to understand materials taught. In the appropriate environment and with appropriate materials, it is possible that each child can be a success, given that the teacher understands that not all students learn in the same manner.

I used several strategies including differentiated instructional methods. This year I will incorporate problem based learning as well as contructivist approach to my learners. I believe that all students are capable of learning and as a teacher we have to authenticate the instruction to make it more meaningful to high tech students. In addition, I believe in choice of products to progress whereby students are able to choose different products that are available to them. They may create, write, present or discuss their findings as long as everyone is comfortable and must show they means to take ownership of their learning. I worked in the Broward School system for the past eight years as an Interim Sub and Math Teacher. The last job I held was teaching mathematics which includes, Algebra, Geometry at HD Perry Middle School in Miramar Fl. I also secured a bachelors degree from Florida

I like to show students hands-on methods of solving problems. I believe this helps to make the information concrete and not easily forgotten. I feel each child learns differently and if one method does not succeed there is always another to try until we reach one that works for that child. I have also witnessed the effects of positive praise and reinforcement to help children build confidence in themselves. I have been working with children for 15 years through various organizations and activities. I have been a fulltime teacher for 2 years and currently teach Kindergarten. I enjoy helping children reach their full potential and seeing their excitement when they master a challenging topic.

I love teaching! I am so glad that I get to do what I love. While teaching, I have found a real love of tutoring. I feel it is a better way to meet the needs of my students. I believe many students learn at different rates and some students just need more time. Tutoring allows time for one on one interaction, where I as the tutor can find where the student has deficiencies. This tells me where I need to start and what we need to work on, to get the student where they need to be. This is our goal, to get the students to be successful in the classroom and in life. I have always known I wanted to be a teacher. I fulfilled my dream by getting my Bachelors of Science degree in Elementary Education. Before graduating college I took and passed my Professional Teacher Certification and Elementary Education Certification 1-6. While teaching at the Elementary level, I started tutoring prior studen

I believe that all children have different styles or method of learning. I will often give students a choice designing and implementing their own complex learning projects and will act in a consultative role. In many cases, I will also teach a the students with diagrams or other images associated to the particular lecture. I enjoy young students company and I do not get frustrated or irate easily. I am a very optimistic individual who can bring the best in people, whether its through education or personal. I have had some great tutors and teachers in the past and would like to thank them by helping others accomplish their educational dreams. Higher Education has always been my passion. I recently graduated college, in May 2009, with a Bachelor degree in Business Marketing. Although my degree focuses more on different aspects of business financial growth, my dedication to assist others th
