Christy B - Ocean Springs, MS 39564 (6.4 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I believe learning should be fun and creative and that children should have an environment that is friendly and caring to learn in. I think teachers should be patient with their difficulties and take time to give them the one on one attention that they need. I like thematic units and hands on activities. I like to teach reading and english. I like to use whole group, small groups, paired reading activities. I like to use magazines, newspapers, children's books and other materials that interest the students to teach reading. I greatly enjoy seeing the students achieve their learning goals and their yearly progress
In 2000, I began to teach special education and teaching special needs children with learning disabilities. I taught grades 3rd-5th in a self-contained, reading, math, and language skills and middle school grades 6th- 8th.
After Hurricane Katrina, I moved to Pensacola, Fl.

Erin L - Mobile, AL 36609 (28 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have always valued the importance of a quality education and have encouraged friends with no college ambition to start working on their degrees. I am not, however, an elitist. I think every endeavor is a learning experience, but there are basic skills that are necessary to be successful, such as grammar, spelling, and professionalism. My experience in formal teaching is mostly in college-level public speaking and coaching Little League, but I am a proficient and tedious writer. I am also familiar with APA, MLA, Chicago, Turabian, and BlueBook formatting styles. As a recreational scientist, as I like to call it, I have also learned a great deal about chemistry (mostly inorganic but some organic), biology, and anatomy and physiology. I come into contact with a variety of different students with different areas of interest as a public speaking teacher. My teaching philosophy is to recogni

Mercedes R - mobile, AL 33609 (28 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I believe that all children have the capacity to learn. Educators need to guide them in their endeavors. All children deserve a quality education. They need to learn in an environment that is structured but engaging. Every child has a different learning style and teachers need to be able to adapt their lessons to all children. I strive to learn each child interests and learning style and incorporate these aspects into lessons. I believe the parent, student, and teacher interaction is extremely important for a child’s academic success. I enjoy working with children and have been working in this field since I entered college in 2004. I have a bachelor degree in Elementary Education with English as a Second Language Certification. I can speak, read, and write Spanish fluently. I am currently working on a graduate degree in Curriculum and Instruction/ Teaching English as a Second Language. I

Denise O - Fairhope, AL 36533 (35.7 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I believe a "hands-on" approach is the best way to retain knowledge given all learning styles. If we do it, we will remember it. If learning is considered fun, we want to do it and all subject areas can have an element of fun. Positive reinforcement within a structured environment is my style of classroom management and it works. If a student knows what is expected, knows the consequences, and knows it will be consistent every time, problems decerase. Following the birth of my third child, I taught at her pre-school and caught the teaching "bug". I then completed a graduate program in Elementary Education, taught for one year in the public school system in Florida and then taught for one year in Alabama. I have the ability to help children struggling in reading to make great strides and as a result, gain the self-confidence to do well in school. I believe in a "hands-on" approach
