Sculpting Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Homosassa Springs, FL

Not only do I love to teach and help students learn, I also enjoy helping students develop an appreciation for learning in general. The most gratifying experience while teaching is the look on a student's face, after hours of confusion, after they reach an understanding of the concept. The environment that I believe works the best is one that allows the student to have fun while learning; which creates a more positive environment for future learning. I remember my experiences with teachers that not only instructed lessons, but also brought fun and enjoyment to the experience. I try to follow in their footsteps, and lead other students to a similar appreciation. During the completion of my Bachelor's degree in Psychology I had the opportunity to work with the Maricopa College District, as well as the No Child Left Behind Program. While working with the Maricopa College District I assisted

I graduated from USF with a B.A.'s in Anthropology. I also gained an immense knowledge in understanding and researching groups, as well as individuals, by participating in an Honors/Thesis program offered by the department of Anthropology. As such, I have acquired superb writing and grammatical skills. Additionally, I have played the viola, a classical string instrument, since the 6th grade. Being a well-rounded individual, I have also studied art while attending college, and enjoy creating my own arts and crafts frequently. Also, I speak and write some Spanish. I am currently enrolled in an Educator Preparation Institute to obtain my certification to teach. In the meantime, I am employed as a substitute teacher for Pasco County, and I previously volunteered for after school care tutoring programs for children between the ages of 6-18. I feel that I have a very positive attitude, a

After volunteer tutoring at my daughters’ schools, I was determined to study teaching to have a better understanding of children with special learning needs. As a private college student, I was very motivated to obtain superior grades and I maintained an average G.P.A. of 3.50+ while caring for my children and home. As I began teaching I was involved in extensive professional development courses through each school district I worked. While working with many different teachers I aquired extensive amounts of content knowledge and teaching strategies in elementary education, biology, English, American government, world cultures and economics. As evidenced by my experiences, I enjoy teaching students on many different ability and grade levels. My students found me to be laid back and understanding with high expectations. I believe each student has a unique gift to offer but it takes enco

I believe that all teacher's should have high expectations of each one of their students. I enjoy doing this, because this is their daily encouragement. I enjoy teaching students through hands on activities because it engages them more into the topic that I am teaching. They are my motivation to keep educating myself in order to give them what they deserve. I have always been interested in helping others, sharing knowledge, and teaching. In the fall of 2000, I began my early childhood education undergraduate studies in Puerto Rico. In 2005 I changed my major to elementary education, consecutively obtaining a BA degree (in January of 2007) and finally graduating with Summa Cum Laude (in June of 2007).I am currently certified by the state of Florida in elementary teaching (K-6), CPR (for infants, children and adults), and basic first aid. My long term goals consist in keep growing profess

I love teaching all age groups of children. I know that every child is capable of not only learning a subject, but being successful at understanding and applying the subject material. I use a hands on approach, looking to see what strengths and opportunities a child has to offer and working to improve the child’s ability to learn the subject. I believe that children respond better to learning when they realize someone cares about not only them, but what they think. When a child is able to recognize that you value them and their opinion, it opens up a whole new door of learning for them Being a business student required many hours of research and writing. As I went further and further into my major it became increasingly important that my information was both current and accurate. This made me focus on being able to find, translate, and relate multiple pieces of information into a context

Over the years I have learned that all children are unique and have their own sense of learning style. I consider myself patient and hard working with a very flexible schedule. I have always focused on providing the best learning environment for the child, even if it means going to extreme lengths to help them learn. My main goal has always been to challenge the student and make a difference in their learning experience. As a graduate at USF, I have pushed myself very hard to be the best that I can be. As of August 2010, I will be graduating with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Public Health. My learning skills in college have been reflected in my tutoring. I began tutoring when I was in sixth grade. I started working at my high school daycare for three years and later transferred to the University Community Hospital Children’s Learning Center.

Although I believe the FCAT is a test that demands respect, I do not teach to the FCAT. My instruction is differentiated for each child and if they are able to give me more, I push them to their ability. My goal for my students is to teach to the highest level they excel in using a variety of methods........I want my students to be well-rounded in their abilities, not just able to pass a test. When I work with your child, they will look word to seeing me and I will look forward to watching and helping them grow. The best part of all is that their skills all build on one another and the difficulty to tackle new concepts is not as threatening to them because I leave them with tools in hand. I look forward to making a difference! As an educator that has taught in both the private and the public schools systems for the last 19 years, I have learned a great deal.....the child must always

As a college graduate, I was ready ti conquer the world with my BA in Communications, but once I begin to think about what I truly wanted to do with my life, I begin to also look into childcare. I begin at USAA Child Development Center for almost two years. I felt so comfortable with the kids and I relished in the fact of being able to mold their minds to learn their abc's and 123'. I knew right then, this is going to be my career. I went on to Hillsborough County Headstart program, where I taught 3-5 year old for almost two yearss as well. It was definitely a challenge, but it was a learning experiencr. After that I moved on to becoming a kindergarten teacher for walton academy for the performing arts and I stayed there for five years. I am most comfortable teaching with prek-5th grade students, because that is my area of expertise. I love teaching these age groups because they are so i

It was my dream for years to work with children in the school setting. Their education is so important for them to be all they can be in life. I love watching them "catch" on after I have helped them understand that they can learn. Being patient, flexible, and respectful have proven to me that children really do want to excel. I try very hard to help the child decide what works best for them to learn. My degree in Psychology has been helpful while working with students. It has helped me connnect while utilizing an individual approach to better engage a child in the learning experience. Additionally, while striving to learn what students need from different socio economic, cultural and ethnic backgrounds as well as educational needs has further engaged me to become the best I can be in order to provide quality tutoring.
