I take pride in my ability to be innovative and creative to teach all children the way that they learn. I truly believe that there are 25-different types of intelligence. As educators, it is out job to determine how kids learn and teach them that way; not expect them to conform to a formula or out expectation. All children are unique and are brilliant in their own unique ways.
In my experience through course work and volunteer experience, I have instructed teens in mediation, leadership skills, and assisted them in making healthy choices, created a social skills curriculum, and learned various psychological techniques and skills for assisting people. By utilizing a multi-discipline approach, keeping accurate records of all sessions and interactions with the kids and their families, and communicating necessary information to team members.

From my own experiences as a student I have come to the opinion that the most valuable educational accomplishment one can achieve is to “learn how to learn”. This seems to be a state of mind, an epiphany if you will, which hopefully will be realized at some point in the course of an individual’s intellectual development. Such a state of mind is not usually due to the efforts of a particular instructor, nor is it the result of having taken a certain class. Rather it represents an ideal culmination of the educational process. Maybe, some would say it is the moment when the Scholar is born. Perhaps it is the moment when the true Student emerges. As instructors we may never know if we have ever contributed to such a moment of realization in a person’s life, but it is nice to think we can and it is nice to try, and over all that’s my philosophy of teaching. On a more specific level I have fo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The position that I applied for is to teach/tutor College Algebra or advanced mathematics and physics. In term of education, I have a degree in Electrical Engineering with many hours in Mathematics. Regarding experience, I had taught Math from Entry Level up to Calculus at JLF University
Teaching is my passion. In the near future, I don't see myself doing anything else but that. My main objective in teaching is not only to promote learning of the subject matter, but also to help the students learn to think logically, learn problem-solving methods and techniques clearly and concisely, explain step-by-step processes and provide valid reasons for logical arguments. I just love to teach.

My teaching style is essentially one of motivation and entertainment. It is my contention that a motivating teacher has to be somewhat of an entertainer to ensure he or she has the undivided attention of students. I have been so successful with this teaching approach that I have been cited by "Who's Who Among America's Teachers" on four occasions for teaching excellence. I am also able to inspire students by telling them of my life's story; one in which I started out in life as a high school drop out and was able through hard work to get back on a track of objective endeavor.

As a mathematics graduate, I have strived to teach and tutor mathematics in such a way that everyone could have a general understanding of it. I have earned a BA in mathematics, which has given me the opportunity to gain an understanding of how to make math an enjoyable subject. Many people that I have spoken to do not like math. I have made it a goal of mine to change that mindset and to provide a different insight to studying math. During the last 10 years I have been able to share my knowledge with others while enlightening others to study math full time.
My teaching style is quite universal in such that I believe in hands-on learning. I love teaching and working with all types of students. I am very patient, polite, and understanding of the needs of students who are trying to understand math. My goal is to provide a service where my teaching style will help them discover ... read more

I have always been involved in the teaching industry. Weather that is after school care or tutoring and mentoring. I was an Americorps Volunteer from 2000-2001 working within education. I was an in class tutor for kindergarden, 3rd and 5th grades. I also taught at Apopka Middle and drop out prevention at Apopka High School. I facilitated a boys group every Tuesday night and a youth group every Wednesday night. I did summer camps and tutoring after school as well.
My teaching style is that we do not move on until you (the student) "get it". If that is an hour or two, that's fine, or a week or two, that is fine as well. I need the student to know the material in order to move on.

As a graduate in the world of technology, I believe education never ends. Things change constantly therefore we must continue to educate ourselves. In addition, I have volunteered with high school juniors and seniors to help them through courses such as math, science, computers, and English in their preparation for college. While in college, I also tutored classmates in statistics, algebra, and technology courses. Beyond that, I have learned valuable lessons about teaching others in the various management positions that I have held throughout my career.
Throughout my experience tutoring students, I have learned that everyone has a unique learning style. No single rule applies to teaching someone. I spend time figuring out how a student learns and then adjust my style to their needs. After tutoring students for the past two years, I have learned that many kids have the ability to ex ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am fascinated with the concept that the more senses you utilize in teaching the better the child learns and retains what was taught. Some children respond to verbal teaching, while others prefer visual teaching, or others like to interact with their environment (the hands on approach). Each child has their own language. I believe that a teacher must do whatever is necessary to reach the student so that he can learn. Learning should be fun and enjoyable! I love seeing a child understand a new concept; it is like learning all over again. Today, few students and for that matter parents enjoy mathematics. Mathematics would best be taught by those who love it so they can pass their love of the subject onto their students.
Although I have a well-rounded education, most of my knowledge and work experience is in mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus plus the r ... read more

When I educate young people, I believe in allowing the class essentially teach themselves and empower them to conduct peer reviews, which does wonders for their self esteem. For adult learners, I have served as a facilitator in many different types of forums and adapted my teaching methods accordingly to my audience and what it is I am hoping to get across. I am extremely patient and am a good listener, which are attributes that I know assist me in building mutually respected and trusting relationships with my students.

As a graduate, I understand the struggles each individual student may endure throughout their course work. Throughout my years as a student I have worked diligently and now applying to master's and PhD programs for neurological psychology. During the last 5 year, in high school and throughout college I have tutored others that needed help in psychology, algebra, statistics, geometry, and microbiology.
The best way for a person to learn depends on the person, of course. It is well known that people have different leaning styles that work best for them. The best approach for a tutor is to learn which learning style fits the student best. Everything can take into account, for example lighting of the room or even background noise. All students regardless of age should be able to succeed and its a privilege to help students that want to reach their top potential

As a future physician, working with people I find is necessary in order to be as efficient in every way possible. In the last five years, I have enjoyed working with kids of all ages as a tutor to middle school kids in high school, and then a tutor to college kids when at Valencia, and then as a tutor for no child left behind as well as private tutoring while in college. I feel that I have a purpose. A purpose to change the world. Sounds impossible, probably is, but why not test the waters by helping a child or adult to feel happy in knowing that they do "get it". Every time I bring a smile or hope to someones face, I feel like I have helped to start a change that through time could evolve into something great. I have tutored Math, English, Psychology, Arts, Sciences, and more. I feel the best way to help others is to help yourself, I know through tutoring, I am not only helping myself, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked for the last 17 years with a private school. There I have taught a wide variety of subjects, but they depend on me the most heavily for high school sciences and maths. I am currently a registered substitute teacher, state certified to teach music and high school math, and I am working toward certification in more subjects. Due to my own hunger for education, I am actively pursuing a Masters Degree in Math Education.
When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me ... read more
