Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach. After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry.

Have taken many professional communication courses that have enhanced my ability to communicate with colleagues, co-workers, classmates, and professors. Important life skill to be able to eloquently conduct yourself in a professional manner I truly believe in experiential learning as much as possible! However, sometimes this isn't always applicable. In others cases, I am a very visual person and like to teach with as many graphics and visuals as I can. I believe in trying to help students understand the "bigger picture" of a concept and then learning the details, rather than through memorization. I am a fun, bubbly person and like to make learning and studying as enjoyable as possible! I have recently completed my Masters degree from Duke University this past May and am currently working as a dolphin biologist.

Senior, BA in Communications Each individual has a distinct learning style which must be recognized in order to promote and facilitate better learning and achievement, it is essential that a teaching style in the format of tutoring match the students learning style. Have experience in all subjects listed as I have completed these courses myself; as a communications major I've worked in public relations and media though I have extensive freelance writing experience.

Being a business student required many hours of research and writing. As I went further and further into my major it became increasingly important that my information was both current and accurate. This made me focus on being able to find, translate, and relate multiple pieces of information into a context that was understandable to both students and faculty. This gave me experience in speaking and writing to both those who knew a specific subject extensively, and those being introduced to a subject for the first time in a way that they could be understandable to all. I have worked in multiple group setting as well as one on one where I was able to translate ideas into words or writing that made a picture more complete or understandable. I love teaching all age groups of children. I know that every child is capable of not only learning a subject, but being successful at understanding and

My philosophy is that all children can learn and succeed in their studies. I have found over the years I have learned how adapt to a very much hands on approach or I can let the students discover on their own. Each child is different and a teacher must be flexible enough to adjust to the child's personality. I have taught in the 70's and now again in the 20's. In between my teaching experience I worked for Nestle USA in sales and sales management. The experience I have gained from teaching and working for Nestle USA for 25 years will prove to be a valuable asset to your company.

While in High school I was in a program called Future Educators of America. I taught Emotional Handicapped Children by choice and I use what I have learned back then to teach today. I have 3 small children myself so I do enjoy teaching them new things and helping them further understand the concept more. Sometimes I use an example something they are familiar with, something that I know will grab their attention, then it does not even feel like learning. With me, the majority of learning is focused around being fun & creative where others are more in tuned to the reality of it as we all know this is how life is so I help them learn life skills as well. However I do utilize the importance of their involvement. I currently instruct medical billing and coding classes. I have just started and I realized how much I love this.

I fully enjoy working with students and potential business owners teaching the core requirements needed to successfully operate a company. I receive personal gratification knowing that I have succeeded in educating these individuals and love to see that others can succeed with the correct guidance. My method of teaching is for the student/client to experience a hands on learning experience. I feel that standing behind someone and guiding their every step is not the proper technique and the results will be dissapointing. Every student can learn new and exciting facts and procedures with the right mind set and correct guidance. I hold my Bachelor's degree in Business with a major in Accounting. Since graduating I have been employed in the Corporate environment holding positions from Internal Auditor to Corporate Controller. During the last five years I have been operating a small bus

One of my older students described me as "having the patience of a Saint". One of the most rewarding moments in teaching is when a student that is struggling with a subject "gets it". Whenever possible I try to use examples from everyday life to explain the problem more clearly. I truly enjoy helping others and sharing my knowledge with them. I earned my BA in Business Administration with a major in Accounting. I worked for 5 years as a controller for a medium size McDonald's Franchisee. I have over 23 years experience working as Director of Management Information Services where I worked directly under the Treasurer. Part of my job included preparing the quarterly financial statements and calculating annual fixed asset depreciation amounts. Most recently I was involved in the sale of 18 McDonald's restaurants.

I have always enjoyed spending time and working with children. At a young age I helped my mother run an in-home daycare and I currently live with three younger cousins. I have spent countless hours assisting them with homework, provoking them to think creatively for school projects and helping them grow into responsible, smart and caring persons. I think every child has a special gift; you just need to help them find it. I feel that if you can find a way to spark interest in a subject and allow the student to relate their work to something they are passionate about, then they are destined to succeed. As a patient and kind person, it will be my goal to help my students strive to achieve their best work. I thank all of the educators in my life who have helped me along the way and I would love the opportunity to return that favor. Inspiring children to be proud of their work, knowing they g
