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 was employed by the Interior Design department at FSU to teach undergraduate courses, being an instructor of record for the inital course for the department, Design Fundamentals. I have a passion for teaching and learning- it runs in the family as my husband is a middle school science and math teacher. Our parents are lifelong edcuators in Wakulla County. Now that I have earned my Master's degree I would like to continue that family tradition.
I believe that while students may forget specifics of what they are learning, they will never forget how teachers make them feel. I also belive that the best teachers are the ones that make themselves less needed the longer they teach specific studdents. I want to empower the students I teach to be able to learn and excell on their own in the future. I hope to make a difference by empowering the students I teach to learn to edcuate themselv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Upon graduating with a BA in International Affairs and Spanish in the Spring of 2003, I traveled to India to work in an orphanage and school for orphaned and underpriviledged children. For six months, I taught a wide range of subjects, including Reading, Writing, History, Social Sciences and Math in a small classroom setting (10-30 students). Last summer, I traveled to Guatemala and Mexico to work in an orphanage for abused children, to where I also returned for the past Christmas break. In the orphanage, I tutored children on a one-to-one basis in Math, English, and Reading. I also worked at an after-school program during the Fall semester of 2005, where I offered homework help to Third grade students.
I truly enjoy teaching and working with children in all capacities. I believe that I am best when teaching on a one-to-one basis. I consider myself to be a very patient person ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My mother is a reading development teacher. She works with Title 1 children every day in her job. Before coming to college, I volunteered over 100 hours working with a Title 1 child on her reading, writing, and math skills. She was in the third grade for the second time that year, and by no means can I take credit for the fact that she went on to pass that year, but I do believe I helped her by understanding her difficulties, working with her as someone who was interested in seeing her succeed. I am a very patient person, and most of all, I consider myself empathetic. I believe that teaching is achieved through understanding each child's specific needs and emotions, and working through the difficulties with firm, but kind leadership.
I earned my bachelor degree in Communications and Creative Writing (double major), which has attributed to my excellent verbal communication skills as ... read more

My unique experiences have provided me with invaluable teaching experience which has shaped my teaching style. The pedagogical approach I utilized in ESL teaching called “teaching English through English” has resulted in my highly creative, adaptive, and practical approach. I not only teach the material, but also teach problem-solving techniques to enable the students to apply their knowledge to every-day life. I approach students with enthusiasm; all children are able to learn, and learn successfully! I don’t see myself as an ultimate authority, but as a facilitator of learning. Most importantly, I approach teaching with patience and commitment, as well as a true desire to see all my students meet and even exceed their own expectations.
While living overseas in both Ukraine and Mexico I taught ESL through a non-profit organization for 4 1/2 years. In addition to teaching beg ... read more
