Master Social Studies Teacher

I have been teaching for several years at the High School and University level. I have extensive experience with community college students and students who require extra prep for college level classes. I currently teach at Tallahassee Community College. I have taught at Florida State as well. In 2006 I taught in London and in Paris for FSU. I have traveled quite a bit and can add those experiences to the classroom.
My style uses a dialectic approach using questions and answers so that students discover the answer on thier own. I also use tecnology to enhance learning.

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a bachelor’s degree in History and English, as well as a master’s degree in teaching. My educational background has given me a wide range of knowledge in the humanities, and my liberal arts education has helped me develop high reading and writing skills. I have four years of experience running writing workshops and tutoring first-year college students and non-native English speakers in study skills. From these experiences, I have gained expert knowledge in teaching literacy and study skills. Also, from my time teaching at a public high school, I am very familiar with the types of expectations teachers have of students and can help students "crack the code" of multiple choice, short answer, and research assignments and tests.
My teaching philosophy and style is founded upon the belief that all children are brilliant and can succeed. My approach to teaching is highly in ... read more

My comments on tutoring Government : Graduate of Florid A&M Univeristy with a major in History and minor in Political Science.

I am a graduate of Florida A&M University, with a major of History and a minor in Political Science. I have a love an affinity for writing and I have an article that was published within the online magazine, Examiner.com. I have experience in tutoring students, both young and old, either face-to-face, or online. I am patient and willing to due anything possible to ensure that my clients grasp the ideas and teachings they are ecpected to learn. I believe reading is a fundamental and essential tool to have in life, as well as having knowledge of past events that have helped shape our lives today. Although, many people find History to be dull and boring, I have the ability to make it seem fun and interesting.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am the author of five historical novels and a number of articles, poems and short stories. I occasionally do short “residences” teaching Language Arts and Drama to special needs students in k-12 schools for VSA Arts of Florida. My graduate studies emphasized American and Tudor/Stuart History. My doctorate included a Criminal Justice minor. I regularly teach writing and grant writing seminars to adults, usually through libraries on weekends or in the evening.
I believe everyone will respond well to individualized instruction when the tutor studies the student's learning style and offers the information in the form best suited to each learner. I am patient and encouraging with students. I work hard to find ways to present a subject so that each learner will find it interesting.

All learning starts with a question, both by teacher and student alike. My role is both as teacher (coach and guide) and student (questioner). I should employ a variety of questioning techniques to better understand strengths and weaknesses, then prescribe remedies tailored for individual strengths and weaknesses, facilitating the learning process and desired outcome. Most people know intuitively how they learn, as well as which modalities work best for them. Paying attention, listening, probing with questions, observing responses, being patient is the first part of my job. Often times the student knows what works best and can even tell you. So I just need to pay attention. Once the diagnosis is evident then I can prescribe, or at least give suggestions that help facilitate the desired outcome. Then it's evaluate, make adjustments, continue and expand on new learning sets and ac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Training Coordinator for service-learning projects throughout Florida, I learned about the effectiveness of service-learning strategies. The opportunity to apply what is learned in classroom settings promotes retention of all subjects. In one project, students learned about homelessness in Palm Beach County, Florida and throughout the United States. Students empowered themselves when they spearheaded a food drive and conducted an assessment of homeless people in Palm Beach County. This process enriched their empathy for people in need. In addition, I challenge students with thought-provoking situations that increase their critical thinking ability and communication skills. One such example included the shootings at Columbine and why young persons might commit such an atrocity. This helps to promote self-discovery and critical thinking as well. The treatment of individuals wi ... read more

Facilitating thinking and learning is a good descriptor of my teaching style. I listen to the students to find out their interests in order to frame their learning. I use questioning on different levels to generate connections across curriculum areas. I use different ways to present materials: oral, written, read aloud, look at questions before reading. Using a variety of styles, strengths, and interests of the student keeps learning fresh.
As an elementary teacher, I have taught in large and small group settings for grades 1-6. I have worked with special groups in my gifted instructor position, individual students that need assistance with reading and primary level math. I have spoken to parent and teacher groups in regard to curriculum and learning environments that facilitate success.

Teaching has long been a passionate calling of mine. I am motivated to help students of all ages to succeed academically and to overcome learning obstacles. I am patient, and simply cannot be discouraged in my efforts to make any topic understandable and enjoyable. Math is my particular favorite. I love seeing confidence grow in students as they build their math skills and discover that problem-solving is fun! I believe that every learning setting, whether in a classroom or a tutoring session, should be a safe place that is free from fear of failure. It's important to me to establish a good rapport with my students, and I find this generally comes naturally because I truly care about their success.
