Award winning film editor and professional journalist

Life tends to be cyclical. Everything, fashion, music or economics -- eventually returns. And so did Don Canaan -- from a Bronx tenement to marriage, children, success in television newsfilm, immigration to Israel, re-marriage, two more children and a return to the U.S.A. and a new facet of journalism--print. Canaan's career dates to his appearance on Mike Wallace's NightBeat program. His news background covers four decades of history -- from 1960 until his departure from United Press International to become a Quality Editor for LexisNexis. From 1961-1974, Canaan edited newsfilm and documentaries for NBC News in New York, and in 1974 made aliyah as part of an American group planning to settle Yamit in the Sinai. When he returned to the U.S. film in TV news had become an anachronism -- a victim of American technology combined with Asian ingenuity. During three years oversea ... read more

To Help Your Child Succeed At Advancing In English Studies

Hands-on. We all learn more when we experience new things, and get to try them ourselves. Children are more engaged when there is something for the them to do to interact with the materials provided.
I was an elementary education major for 2.5 years before following my specific passion to writing and literature in my Junior year to finish up school. I graduated with a 3.35 QPA from Slippery Rock University in May of 2015! I have completed reading instructional courses in K-6th elementary education as well as courses in literature and reading assessment. I also have experience working with many high-and-low-incidence disabilities such as children who are deaf or blind, have Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorders, or Aspberger's disorders as well.

As an undergraduate at UCLA, I volunteered for tutoring inner city fifth and sixth graders. I found it natural to sense their insecurity, frustration, or lack of self-esteem. I then chose an appropriate starting point in a particular subject, expressed enthusiasm as they demonstrated mastery, and proceeded at a challenging but not intimidating pace. After earning degrees in journalism and later microbiology, I entered the technical writing field. In this endeavor I combined my writing and scientific skills to produce clear and organized text. My subject matter areas in technical writing include biotechnology and engineering.
First I assess exactly what material the child needs to learn and then develop a timeline for reaching the goal. In the initial meeting, I seek to establish interpersonal comfort. If comfortable with his tutor, the child will not hesitate to ask questio ... read more

I believe that the best way to teach is by learning alongside the student. Through my previous tutoring experience, I have found that the most successful sessions are a result of first understanding the student's learning style. Once an understanding of the learning style is established, the tutoring sessions are catered to fit each student's personal needs and learning goals. In doing this, I am constantly learning new ways to tutor while at the same time teaching the student in a way that will provide them with the greatest benefits.
As an aspiring writer, I hold a strong love for words in all forms. I enjoy writing them, reading them, speaking them, and sharing my love for them with others. My love for words helped me to earn a BA in Communication Studies while minoring in Journalism. In addition to utilizing these skills through extra-cirricular coursework and freelance writing ... read more

Active participation defines my teaching style. I truly like and enjoy my students. Because of this sincerity, the students seem to enjoy it as well. "Hands on" seems to work best for my subject matter. Students learning is reinforced with many varied activities. A few examples include,writing and performing skits,acting out novels and plays, assuming the roles of peritnent characters, cooking, library research projects,etc. I have not only hosted many European trips, but have arranged many cultural activities for the benefit of my students as well.

I feel very strongly about a differential approach to my teaching methods. I believe every child is different and learns differently then the next child. I feel confident in developing a lesson plan that can be diverse enough to meet each and every child’s gifts and disadvantages. My life is dedicated to teaching and I hope that I will be able to teach for a very long time. My hopes are to eventually acquire a PhD in Education.
I have attended CFCC and FCCJ. I am currently attending Liberty University for my Bachelor in Education. I have been teaching for about 7 years and through that time I have learned an extensive amount not only through in-services and training classes, but through my colleagues. I feel very confident in my ability to reach children that feel that they just can't get it. I have two children of my own, which I homeschooled for a year. My daughter, who is 13 yea ... read more

There is not one teaching style that works for everyone. Making the subjects fun and exciting is a great way to get the students engaged. Everyone has different ways of learning and finding that niche will enable that student to be confident when it comes to learning anything. A student's outlook dictates how they relate to a certain subject. Breaking the mindset that it is too difficult or overwhelming are all mental. Breaking through those barriers will enable students to excell. I will help to facilitate those tools to overcome those obstacles.
As a young college graduate, I am still in the mind set of studying. My main focus is in administration and training for health systems. Out of my many classes and interests in education I excelled at undergraduate seminars which is taking a block of time and teaching a specific subject to my peers. My bachelor's degree has strong focus o ... read more

I believe that each child's talents and abilities need to be nurtured through creative and constructive curriculum and delivery, including acknowledging the importance of integrating playtime with instruction. I have worked in many educational environments - public and private schools; juvenile detention facilities and home school cooperatives - each place offering it's own rules and protocol for developing and nurturing a child. One approach that I used in ALL these facilities yielded the best results for both child and educator (me!) and that was simply to follow this rule: provide trust and mutual respect, and give enough room for students to learn to make real, responsible choices in pursuing their true interests.
I am a creative educator and development professional with over 15 years teaching, curriculum development and program implementation experience spanning several count ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As indicated previously, I believe all children can learn. More importantly, parents and teachers can learn a great deal from their children, specifically by listening and recognizing what motivates, excites, and draws the child in. I am extremely patient, but firm in drive and conviction to provide the best educational opportunity for every student.
As a life long learner, the parent of two school age children, and a business professional, I continue to be intrigued and encouraged by the willingness of students to learn. As an adult student earning a bachelors and masters degree, I gained a passion for education as I was not the typical college student. Rather, I was a very typical high school student, and later a part time college student, who was not prepared for college. My passion is to bring out the best learner any student can be, plain and simple. Through my work as a ... read more
