I was in many musical theater productions I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my students and for myself. I find joy in learning and believe that teaching allows me to share this joy. I have been a teacher for 40 years.

I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can help students with the organizational

Hands on teaching and kinesthetic learning are key to success in my mind. I love to involve the student's entire body in the learning process. From their senses to their movements to memory device techniques in the form of song or poem, using alternative methods of teaching seems more effective in the learning process. As a Cum Laude graduate from the University of Florida, I continue to hold a high level of discipline in every aspect of life. Whether it be at work, at home, or at school, I feel it is imperative to do your best no matter what the situation. Upon graduation at the age of twenty, I began teaching undergraduate courses for UF. This was an honor, but it was not challenging enough. It was not until I helped students with severe mental and physical disabilities that I felt fulfilled in my profession. Being able to teach student who are eager to learn, but have obstacles

As an art teacher of over 15 years, I have taught painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, graphic arts, art history, and darkroom photography. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts at Christopher Newport University and my Master of Arts degree in Teaching and Learning (in the art classroom) from Nova Southeastern University. I have also taught German, tutored pre-algebra, and coached high school tennis. Currently, I am a freelance graphic and fine artist, as well as an art history research writer. I love teaching art to all age levels. I really enjoy it when I show someone an art technique, they learn it, and make it their own. When teaching art, I feel it very important to demonstrate a technique, discuss how the technique has been used in different cultures, and then for the student to mimic my actions. Once the technique has been mastered, the student can take the t

I love mentoring and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but they all have different learning styles (auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic). Also, learning must be relevant to each student. For example, using sports statistics to teach math. I am patient, easy going, and fun. I am a firm believer in teaching through self-discovery and in providing an open approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and have support both in and out of the home. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and I have a Master's degree in Family, Youth and Community Science, with a focus on youth and community development. I was a substitute teacher in the Atlanta area for one year which gave me the chance to mentor and tutor several high school students in math. I have worked with kids through volunte

I have always been an avid reader and writer, as well as a natural teacher. As early as middle school, I was tutoring my fellow classmates at the request of their parents. I studied Latin for five years, which provided an exceptional foundation for the study of English, which I pursued as my major at Loyola University. I concentrated in Creative Writing, so the bulk of my college work consisted of reading and writing to very exacting standards. I graduated Summa Cum Laude, maintaining a 4.0 major GPA for my entire four years. I have since worked as an SAT Instructor for the Princeton Review and have also tutored privately and given music lessons for supplementary income. I have always had an inclination to teach. To me, there is something very exciting about conveying understanding of a concept to another person. I think I have a particular ability for identifying precisely what aspect o

I am currently an elementary education major at the University of Florida. I will graduate in May 2009 and then stay an additional year for graduate school. In all of my classes, I have been taught a variety of information to use when working with children. Because I am in the ProTeach Program, I have been given a large magnitude of opportunities to work with children all over the Gainesville area from a variety of backgrounds. I have worked in a rural 3rd grade classroom and an urban 3rd and 4th grade classroom. I have also worked at a day care center in Gainesville. I have been a tutor for the Bright Futures Program for a little girl at risk in the second grade. Back home in Jacksonville, I was a private teacher for a 4th grade girl that was home schooled year around. It is a firm belief of mine that every child can learn and succeed, they just need the motivation and positive environm

I love helping and teaching children, and am eager for the opportunity to encourage learning. I am patient and sensitive, and understand that each student has a different approach to learning.

As a tutor, I will strive to discover my student's strengths and abilities, and help him or her apply those to achieve a solid education. I am a student at the University of Florida and am confident in my ability to provide an excellent education.

As an undergraduate, I earned a BA in English and a second BA in Writing, allowing me to hone my writing, discussion, reading, and analytical skills. I studied writing tutoring methods in a class setting while tutoring in our college's writing center. As a senior, I completed an independent study course, studying both writing tutoring theory and conducting my own case study research, which was presented at a research conference at the State University of New York at Albany. I have an excellent knowledge of English grammar and experience with working with students of all levels, including non-native speakers. In high school, I also tutored students in mathematics, English, and social studies, both face-to-face and online. I spent the last year teaching English to students at a teacher training college in China, studying Mandarin Chinese, and teaching short-term classes to elementary,

My philosophy on learning is that all students have different needs. Therefore, teaching has to be directed to the individual child rather than the needs of the entire class. I firmly believe in looking at a child as a whole person with social and intellectual needs. If as a teacher you understand your child’s life, interests, struggles, and cultural background and integrate them into their learning they will relate to you and want to learn. I believe in being patient and understanding that students have multiple intelligences. I like the idea of reinforcing areas that the student is strong at, while working on the area that the student is struggling in. By recognizing strengths, students feel the motivation to improve their weaknesses. I believe that students learn best by putting things together, testing theories, and finding answerers for themselves, rather than looking it up i

Coming from an industrial engineering background, I have all the necessary math and physics skills to train students at the high school and early college level. A major career shift to modeling nature made me acquire new knowledge of biology, ecology, and, of course, much more math. I have been on field-work for a long time, and I've trained several people in sampling techniques. I am currently teaching wildlife population ecology to undergraduate students at the University of Florida. I am good with all ages. My ideas in physics, math, statistics and wildlife are very concrete. I am a visual person and do most of my teaching with real world examples. I believe that students only grasp concepts when they see things and relate situations into real life examples that they have experienced in their life. Helping a student get excited about the subjects I teach gives me tremendous joy

I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways. I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child.
