I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing

I prepare lesson plans for each lesson so that you as a parent will see what we are covering, and I constantly monitor the student for understanding.

As an Ivy League graduate, I studied many different fields, including Economics, Sociology, Literature and Visual Art. I graduated as valedictorian of my high school class and scored a 2340/2400 on my SATs (800 Verbal, 800 Writing, 740 Math), as well as 800s on my French SAT II and Math IIC. I have tutored elementary, middle and high school students before, and greatly enjoy the challenge of communicating difficult material in accessible ways to students.

The students of today will be the first generation to collaborate on a global scale and it will be necessary that they have an understanding of cultures other than their own if they are to succeed. This is where I feel that having knowledge of history and current events plays a crucial role. I believe that to truly know where you are going you have to understand where you have come from. I fully intend to give my students the experiences they need to become knowledgeable partners in the global community. The two main philosophies I try to live my life by are giving back more than what has been given to me, and always leave something in better condition then I found it. Life has not always been an easy road, but through hard work and determination I have risen above any adversity life has presented. I believe the juxtaposition of these philosophies with the leadership skills acquired thro

As a teacher, I utilize many teaching styles as one style is not universal or may not fit all teachers. Anchored Instruction learning allows students to experience real world dilemmas while using critical thinking to problem solve their situation. Another teaching style and my favorite is Cooperative Learning which involves students in collaborative or team-based tasks such as group problem solving, and paper writing, projects. Cooperative learning is relevant for any discipline. C L is valuable for promoting collaborative effort, reasoning and critical thinking among our students. As a bilingual professional, I am confident in my ability in teaching. As my experience will demonstrate, I have a passion to educate young minds and help them become well-rounded, responsible, and successful individuals.

I am a teacher that teaches by showing examples and explaining. I encourage my students to ask questions and I don't mind going over a problem again and again until a student gets the full understanding of what is being asked. I want my students to feel comfortable enough to ask me questions, because that is how they learn. I am currently the Math Coach at a local Middle School. I have been in the educational field for thirteen years as a math teacher. I have taught mathematics on the high school level and the middle school level.

I have thoroughly enjoyed instructing young adults, both in the military and in the high school and college settings. Ideally, hands-on learning strategies will be applied to each student, specifically tailored to their needs and goals. In my experience, the linking of instruction to relevent aspects of the students existing knowledge and personal situation is a highly effective technique. Delivering personal education to students and making a difference in their lives has been my goal for many years, and I wish to continue to help those in need. As a former member of the United States Air Force, I have always believed in making a difference in the lives of children and young adults. I have earned degrees in Aerospace Maintenance (AS), History(BA) and Management (BA). I spent the last two years as a high school AP Macro-economics teacher.

Tutoring provides the opportunity to teach in a way the traditional classroom rarely can; that precious one on one attention to a particular student's individual learning style, strengths and stumbling blocks. Often, a student's success depends less upon who their tutor is, than simply having a tutor at all. My experience with very academically challenged students has demonstrated that I seem to have a knack for finding the "sweet spot" that turns on the lights. Tutoring lets you know every day that you're making a difference for at least one student. I have taught English/Language Arts for approximately 10 years, from 6th grade level through Freshman College. My strengths are in reading, writing instruction and vocabulary development. I have also tutored for SAT/ACT and FCAT prep. My goal with each student is to determine where their particular hurdles lie and tailor an appropriate
