I Completed my Bachelors Degree in South America (Colombia). I have worked as a Teacher for 9 years with students from Pre School to High School including Special Education students. I have dedicated most of my energy towards teaching students in various academics levels. I truly believe a students level of success is a direct reflection of my abilities as a teacher. In other words, if my students haven't progressed to meet various benchmarks it's because I haven't developed the right teaching style for their learning style.

As a graduate of Florida State University I always have had a passion for music and education. I have earned a BS and MS in Specific Learning Disabilities, Varying Exceptionalities, and English Speakers of Other Languages. I have always had a desire to work with students who have difficulties learning. I enjoy finding new ways to make learning come alive for these students. I have tutored for 4 years and even been an advocate for the parent in an IEP meeting. I have taught in the public schools all grades for 12 years. I am passionate about all students having an equal opportunity to learn. I believe all children can and will learn if given the right environment. I empower and encourage students through many different strategies. Making learning fun and exciting is often the tool that is missing in the classroom as well as differentiated instruction.

As a graduate of Indiana University, I was driven to academic success as a Dean's List student in attaining a degree in Business Management. During my time at Indiana I tutored students in English, Social Studies, Math, and History. The students ranged from elementary to college level and my retention for these students from year to year was nearly 100%. Now that I am here in Florida I want to continue to tutor, mentor, and foster educational improvement. I love helping students succeed. I believe all students are capable of academic success. However, I have come to learn that learning styles differ greatly and to be an effective tutor it is imperative to analyze the student and find the most effective tutoring style that suits his or her learning style. My goal is to improve results through patience, hard-work, and confidence building. I believe a good educator can make a world of diffe

Even though I have been very active in the performing arts, teaching is my primary passion. I received a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Music from the College-Conservatory of Music of the University of Cincinnati. However, I completed a Ph.D. in Education at the University of Florida in 1990. I was a full-time special needs teacher at Oak Park School in Sarasota, Florida from 1998 until 2006. I was responsible for teaching elementary, middle school, and high school grade levels. It was a very rewarding job and gave me experience in many different areas in education. Since retiring from Oak Park I have spent a considerable amount of time tutoring in several different areas, including English, history, and math. I firmly believe that all children are capable of learning and are entitled to an atmosphere that is most conducive to the learning process and their individual needs. Pers

Kids respond positively to my teaching style. I am motivating and understanding about their needs while striving to make them feel at ease. I have found that a child learns better when he/she feels a teacher is giving that student his/her total attention. Students do not want to compete with other forces. While classroom instruction is very fulfilling my heart really lies with one-on-one instruction. As a teaching professional with a diverse background I bring a breadth of experience to all levels of teaching. I have been tutoring for 10 years and specializing in one-on-one instruction. I currently teach English at the college level, but I tutor privately in a variety of subjects. Two bachelor degrees, in English and Communications, a Masters in English, plus 30 graduate hours in Education give me a strong foundation for instructing.

I love to teach. I presently teach at a montessori school for deaf children. I truly enjoy working everyday with my students. I have an innate ability to teach. I take pride in providing individualized education to all of my students. I guide them with respect and dignity to allow them to realize their potential. Being positive and having the right attitude can bring down many barriers that may block one from growing and learning and I make sure that each one of my students can learn the power of this. I have a varied academic background. I graduated from an interpreting training program in 1998 and worked as an educational interpreter for several years. I then went back to college to get my degree in education. Most of my studies are in education, including deaf and special education, psychology, counseling, american sign language, child speech, language development, and theate

I find joy in teaching anyone with a desire to learn. I establish, maintain and navigate effective interpersonal relationships with almost every type of personality. I take into account a skill set the pupil already has and fuse it with the applications that help with what I am teaching. Essentially, I "re-wire" new methods onto already learned behaviors and habits while explaining the intricacies of the new methods to the pupils. I earned a BA in Communications which has instilled in me the skills to effectively demonstrate almost every skill set and instruct diverse populations. I gained a high level of fluency with the Spanish language working with it from elementary through college. Additionally, as music is one of my greatest passions I have developed a very broad appreciation of many diverse styles from around the world. Throughout college, I was an onsite Resident Advisor, where

IAs a graduate student working to improve my teaching philosophy I realized that every child has a voice and is able to achieve more with time, guidance and modeling. Maria Montessori created her curriculum for the educator to first model the lesson, then guide the student through the lesson and then watch the student complete the lesson independently. Further, I have taught at every level including adults for 18 years and still strive to use the best practices as I encourage my students to do their best. Besides teaching for Pinellas County, I have worked for private tutoring companies and businesses instructing in all subject areas and social skills. I look forward to working for you. I am originally from Switzerland and found myself hating school as a child. As an educator I work to respect my students’ individualities. I truly believe that every child can learn and enjoy findin

It has always been rather easy for me to establish positive relationships with children of different ages, to be able to encourage and motivate them. It comes naturally, perhaps, because I am sincere with and passionate about children. My expectations of them are high yet realistic; and I am always willing to do whatever is in my ability to help them grow academically as well as personally. I truly believe that all students are capable of achieving whatever their hearts desire as long as their put their minds to it. I encourage students’ critical thinking by helping them explore new concepts. I always keep an open mind and take into consideration students’ individualities. I will be graduating in the spring of 2010 with two bachelor degrees in Secondary Education Mathematics and Russian Language from University of South Florida.

Each child is unique and learns in different ways. By being an active participant, children are able to 'construct' their education more impressionistically, with the understanding that auditory and visual aids accompany. As a Montessori teacher I approach the students with attention towards their overall well-being. I guide my lessons with patience and clear direction, and note progress toward specific follow-ups/goals. I devote time to updating records and documenting observations. As a teenager, I became an Eagle Scout and was a peer mentor (Big Bro./Big Sis.). I am an Earlham College graduate with a BA in Japanese Studies. After graduation I went on a study-abroad program to Japan and taught English to junior high students, and tutored elementary students in Japanese upon returning to the U.S. I was a counselor at a camp for teenage boys with behavior issues where I provided ther

Building a safe and open relationship, teaching in a democratic way, teaching to all students, and being prepared but flexible are all parts of my teaching philosophy. Loving, passionate, flexible, open-minded, sensitive, current, engaging, knowledgeable, and culturally accepting; these are all words to describe the teacher I am and thrive to be. They are characteristics to describe a superb teacher. Anything less than this would be shortchanging the children, who are the most important pieces to the puzzle. I love children. They are the future and to know that I may have touched a child’s life in some way makes teaching even more enjoyable. It is very rewarding job. I will always try my hardest to be the very best role model. I only want and wish them to grow. I want to get them ready for the future and to love school and learning.

My experience with children and academics is great! I have always desired to teach and therefore have spent a great deal of time with students. I graduated as Outstanding Graduate of the School of Education with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and ESE from Palm Beach Atlantic University. My four and half years here opened many doors for tutoring opportunities. I completed field experiences with ESE high school students, inner city third graders - social studies, fourth and fifth graders - reading and mathematics, as well as a 15-week student teaching internship with a third grade inclusion class. I have also been a nanny and tutored middle school students in the areas of math and English. I have even worked with students at the high school levels in the areas of Algebra II and Geometry.
