My teaching style is positive, resourceful, and uses multi-media whenever necessary. I encourgae my students to seek their own answers and guide them on how to reach their learning goals. I combine learning with an increase in self discovery and self - esteem that stays with them beyond our present lessons. I believe learning should be presented as an ongoing, positive process that one never stops marveling at. My students know I believe in their successes which they enjoy reaching. I am a bilingual teacher/ therapist who has had wonderful successes in the teaching field. I have taught adolescents, and adults english, G.E.D., career planning, basic math, and social sciences.

I love to teach and share information with others giving them an opportunity to excel. My most profound technique is to apply things the student loves to do or hear about to expound upon knowledge that the student may not be as comfortable with or struggle with. I believe a firm education and a profound knowledge of the subjects presented will lead into successful practices that can be used in any aspect of life. As a recent graduate of Florida State University, I have always been a student looking to excel in all subjects. My primary areas of expertise happen to be Math and English. I have always earned the highest averages on research papers and look to both expound upon this knowledge as well as share with others the techniques used to master the subjects of English and Math. I Graduated from Florida State University in April 2008 and was actually able to become gainfully employed

My teaching style really depends on the person I am working with. People learn different ways. It is important to identify what works best for the person. For example, some people may learn through discussion, while others may need to see pictures or presentations of the subject matter. I like to identify how the person learns first through questions, or by testing them with a simple task first to identify the method which seems to work best for them. Once this has been identified, training can begin. I have both a bachelors degree and masters degree in business administration/management. Both of these degrees have given me a high level of knowledge in many areas such as finance, accounting, math in general, writing, and presentations/projects. I have always been an extremely sharp student excelling in most any course I have taken. I could tutor any of the k-12 age groups, and probably m

I love working with children. I have taught Sunday School classes at various age levels. I believe that each child is different and learns in his/her own way on his/her own time-table; therefore, I work with each child differently depending on their needs. I try to teach in a way that the child can understand and grasp the concepts of grammar, writing, and reading. I graduated with a Bachelor's in English from Troy University Dothan in December 2009. Since I opted for a Bachelor's in English rather than a Bachelor's in Secondary English Education, I took more writing and literature classes. In all of my English Literature classes, I had numerous writing assignments that helped me learn how to write. I also took writing and grammar classes which helped improve my writing skills tremendously. I tutored when I was in Jr. High School. The student I tutored was learning how to read. I enjoye

I started teaching professionally in Tampa, Florida in 1992. I continued to teach in the Florida Public Schools until 1999 before I returned to school to earn my Master's. Now, I teach English to Adults at Wallace Community College, which I have been doing since 2003. I love what I do. When I got my Master's in 2005, I was able to conduct classroom research which enabled me to reach a deeper level in the principles of both linguistics and the science of learning. In 2008, I published my first book. I currently write a monthly article for the "MundoLatino" newspaper. Occasionally, I do contract work as a proofreader. At present, I am preparing a presentation for the AMTESOL Seminar in Jacksonville in 2011. I believe the teacher needs to create a safe learning environment, explore different learning styles, and always keep in mind Bloom's Taxonomy.(yes, the fundamentals are still imp

I deeply enjoy teaching children from all different age groups, cultural, social and economic backgrounds. I believe that patience and working with each child to find their own unique way of learning is fundamental to the teaching process. Giving positive feedback while utilizing solid teaching skills helps each student to be motivated to achieve their best. I want to help each student I tutor to feel confident about their ability to learn and succeed. It is my goal to provide the proper academic tools for each child to achieve their personal best in a positive and nurturing educational environment. I hope to influence my students to see learning as a lifelong process that is both rewarding and satisfying. Since 1991, I have been tutoring and teaching children in Florida, California and Costa Rica. In addition to being a tutor, I have worked with children in many capacities from after-sc

As a mentor, teacher and/or tutor, it is my responsibility to know who my learners are, what kinds of knowledge and experience they bring to the group, and what they want to achieve so that I can tailor a curriculum that fits their needs and yet leaves enough room to accommodate topics that emerge from group discovery. By assessing where my learners are with respect to our mutual learning goal. As a graduate,I believe that learner-oriented teaching promotes learning that is both purposeful and enduring. I have earned two masters degrees, MBA (Master Business Administration) and MPA (Master Public Administration); which has given me a broader understanding in business. In addition, I was a adjunct instructor for year and mentor as well.

During my four years as an undergraduate at the University of Tulsa, in Oklahoma, I was able to gain extensive experience tutoring my peers in the School of Arts and Sciences, while earning my two bachelor degrees in the Fine Arts and the History of Art. Although my academic expertise lay primarily in English and the Arts due to writing and presenting original research, the University of Tulsa has also provided me with ample knowledge in the Maths and Sciences. In addition, as a teacher at an arts summer camp in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I have developed methods of teaching critical thinking and creative thought processes that are applicable and amenable not only to the arts, but to a variety of subjects as well. I believe that the relationship between student and teacher is one between equals, and that each must actively work together in order to accomplish a student's goals. This educational r

I am a very hands on and visual teacher that believes the best way to learn is by seeing and doing things yourself. In order to provide the best teaching expereince I would teach through multiple examples and putting difficult subject matter into a context the student can understand and visualize. I believe in working with each student to develop a system that works best for the individual, which will give them the tool to learn more easily in the future. While obtaining my Master's degree I had the chance to study many different subjects as well as tutor student from Kindergarten to undergraduates in many areas of study.
