A Little Bit About Me...

I taught for ten years in the chicago public school system,mostly seventh and eighth grades.My next career was in real estate finance where I have almost 30 years of experience.I owned a mortgage company where I trained all the new loan officers.Also I was an owner of a small savings and loan where I also instucted new employees in many phases of banking.I recently was a recruiter for the us census bureau where I tested about 1000 individuals who applied for work with the census.
I try to make teaching a fun learning experience at the same time making it as practical as possible.My experince tells me everyone learns at different speeds and to invidualize each persons education experience is very helpful.

More About This Tutor...

Since 2008, I have been a teacher and just relocated from teaching German at a high school in Pennsylvania to beautiful Sarasota. I do have my Pennsylvania Professional Teaching Certificate and am getting my Florida one. I love to teach and enjoying inspiring others to learn more about the world around them. I have lived in Germany and am fluent in German. I also am a huge history buff and have traveled to over 20 countries.
My teaching style is student centered. I will adapt the information according to the type of learner you are. I understand that no two students learn the same way. I create scaffolding lessons and activities focused on differentiated learning styles from hands-on learner to visual learner. My goal is to promote student learning, achievement, and success.

Experienced Educator who wants your child to love learning.

I have been a full-time classroom teacher at all grade levels for the last 12 years. I also have several years as a substitute teacher. I specialize in differentiating instruction for all learners. In addition, I can teach reading and writing skills using authentic sources and classroom subject matter so that students don't fall behind on content-learning at the expense of practice with unrelated materials.
I have a very engaging manner with students. I feel that learning is a joy, rather than a chore and I try to pass that attitude on to my students. I use frequent checks for understanding and reteaching when necessary. I also believe that a student's own insights and questions can guide learning to its highest levels.

The joy of teaching is finding interesting, enjoyable methods for children to learn necessary skills & knowledge. I believe all children can be successful learners when their learning style is taken into consideration. Finding ways in which a student can practice particular skills & integrate concepts into activities that are meaningful to them is the enjoyable challenge. The key to this approach is in getting to know the student, adapting the methods by which a student learns and then practices a skill set or knowledge base. I am successful when the student makes the information their own. Parents are a child's first teacher and my partner in helping a child enjoy the success and joy of learning.
As an educator my passion is helping children become successful learners. I hold both a BS and M.Ed in elementary education with specializations in curriculum & instruction along with ear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love educating children and adults and strongly believe in lifelong learning. Since I have taught at several levels and even in different countries, I use different teaching techniques. My goal is to help the learner to get the best education possible.
I have taught for 20+ years in Germany (mainly Math, English and Reading) and for 4 years in Kansas City, MO. There I taught all core subjects: Math, Language Arts, Science and Social Studies. Right now I have got several part time jobs: I work as a sub at a colligiate high school (all subjects), I will teach German at the Edison College in Fort Myers (Continuing Education) and I tutor for a private company doing SES tutoring - Reading and Math. I have prepared young people to do their GED, too. The subjects I did there were Math, Science and American History.

I have a long and varied background in the educational field. I earned a master’s degree in elementary education in 1970 and a second master’s degree in adult education in 2007. I taught elementary grades in the New York City school system for six years. I was a college administrator for 20 years at for-profit, career colleges. Throughout that time, my main concern was student learning, comprehension and implementation.
The specialization for my second master’s degree in Adult Education was Teaching and Learning. The focus was learning styles. Therefore, I am well aware of the different learning styles that each individual utilizes to learn and comprehend. Learning is facilitated when that specific learning style is identified and then implemented. Every student has the ability to learn. However, we all learn differently and at different rates. Once the learning style is identifie ... read more

My teaching style is all about the children that I am teaching. They lead me to be the teacher they need to help them learn. I like to think that my basics are lead by good classroom management techniques, cooperative learning strategies, and positive behavior support systems. The students will determine what the best techniques will work and I will adapt to their needs. I like to teach through exploration and lots of hands on activities. A lot of the activities will be data driven by the students performance on previous activities or pretests and post tests. No matter what road I take to teach my students, I will do my best to teach in a way that my students will learn.
As a graduate on December 13th, I have learned more about being a teacher than I ever could have dreamed. My professors, mentors, peers, and most important, students have taught me how to be a great teacher. ... read more

I love learning, and was a member of the National Honor Society while in school. I believe every child has the potential to become an outstanding student and to enjoy attaining goals. I feel that the biggest obstacle to learning is often in the delivery of the message, rather than the inability to grasp a new concept. I am a patient and easy going teacher, striving to model myself after the teachers who were inspirational to me. During my professional appointments, the most rewarding part of my jobs was the ability to mentor and train others in the skills and knowledge I had gained over the years, which enabled them to become outstanding assets to our teams.
I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BS in Biology and more recently, as BS in Information Systems, graduating with honors. As such, I have a thorough understanding of math, science and computer concepts, as well as a str ... read more
