Ballet is one of my top subjects! I have danced Ballet since I was 4 years old and have taught Ballet for the past 3 years.

Hey there, My name is Heather Dinsdale. I started Dancing at age 4 and have been dancing for many years. I have been trained in Ballet, Pointe, Lyrical, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Tumbling/Acro and more! During high school, I got to compete for 3 years at dance Competitions such as Dance Makers Inc., Access Broadway and Dance Educators of America. Once Graduating from High School, I have been teaching for the past 3 years and I love it so much. I have choreographed dances for competitions, weddings, parties, recitals and more! I'm excited for more teaching opportunities.
My favorite styles to teach are Lyrical,Tumbling and Tap. However, I enjoy teaching every style of dance.

My comments on tutoring Ballet : I have been trained ballet professionally for over one and a half years and I am still learning and practicing. So far, I am capable of doing all the fundamental movements at barre and some basic skills on point. Apparently, I live in a studio with woodfloor and mirror near University of Florida, so it is convenient for tutoring and practising.

independent and specific, creative, precise and concise
I am a second-year graduate student majoring in Public Relations in University of Florida. I am also a native Chinese with a series of experiences in teaching both English and Chinese. Before came to America, I taught a high school class a 84-hour SAT essay writing course. I also gave the class TOEFL test instructions based on my TOEFL taking experiences with high score and the former text training from the best English training institution in China. Besides, I have both practical and academic experiences in marketing and public relations.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style would be best described as creative and improvisational. Because I work with students from such varied backgrounds, I believe that the best method is one that allows for flexibility and at the same time incorporates lessons from several fields at once. For example, in both my GED and ESOL courses I incorporate music into my lesson plans. I find that music is an excellent avenue to explore contemporary topics that can then lead to essay topics. At the same time, song lyrics are poetry and can be studied as such.
As a student in the PhD program at the University of Florida, I have been very involved in academic pursuits. However, this personal endeavor reaches beyond my own experience as a student and extends into my professional work as an educator. I have been working in the field of Adult Education for students pursuing their GED diploma as well as Instructing co ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from the University of Florida with a Bachelors in English and Education in May 2010. I will be attending UF in the Fall to begin studying to receive my Masters in Secondary Education with a specialization in English.

I love teaching and being around children. Their vitality and energy is contagious. I believe they are truly our nation's future and we must nurture them.

Each child has a unique way of learning and every child is capable of succeeding with the right tools at hand. I am a very hands on teacher and believe that a chil ... read more
