Teacher Cert Exams Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Jacksonville, FL

I have been a self-employed Tutor since April, 2006. Special needs and home schooled students are welcomed. Nothing makes me happier than when I see the smiles on the faces of my students when they succeed rather than fail. I assist all students in skill building and creating a life-long love of learning. I provide on-going feedback to parents and am happy to work with the teachers of my students. Whenever I can, I like to be very hands-on in my teaching my students. For example, once I was teaching my class about trees. I had them go outside and collect samples of bark which had fallen on the ground. Then we created a gigantic mural in my classroom and glued the pieces of bark to a tree we had drawn.

I would say that my teaching style varies depending onthe person I am teaching. There are several ways that people respond to in order for them to understand.

I throuroughly enjoy teaching high school and allowing my students to learn Hands-on kinesthetic learning. I am a teacher and a mother. I believe in the success of all my students, whether socially or academically. I always enjoyed Science as a child and majored in Biology in college. My love for science carried me to the class room where I have enjoyed educating my students with passion so that my love for Biology would carry over to them. An advantage that I feel I have for the success of my students is majoring in Biology and having a great amount of experience in laboratory techniques.

My teaching style can be described as or geared toward lecturing/disdussing or to simply put it-direct instruction. Visual and audio aids, kinesthetic materials, as well as communication are a must for me as a teacher to tackle the many different types of learning styles. Educational success is my major goal, yet reading is the key to educational success. Therefore, I must show and demonstrate effeective reading strategies to help a student become proficient in all of their areas of study. I use various methods according to the learning styles, which means that I must be able to detect the students educational needs. While earning my BS in Early Childhood Education, I taught preschool. Upon completing my undergraduate studie I became a primary grades school teacher. I began teaching ESE combined 3rd-5th grade and then I beacme a pre-k teacher again.

I have experience tutoring, also. As a former editor and proofreader, I can help with writing. I enjoy helping students achieve. Well, teaching one or a small group is quite different from teaching large classes. When tutoring, it's especially important to be a good listener and observer, to help pinpoint the student's needs and target areas to strenghten. When I see a student "getting it" (absorbing a new concept or mastering something for the first time) I do feel satisfaction. I do have patience, and I relate well to establish a rapport w

A good description of my teaching style sould be very descriptive, and easy to follow. I break down the math into a series of steps, and practice them until they are mastered. For the students that have already decided that they hate math, I try to excite them with topics that they can relate to, such as sports, or cooking. We both make compromises, and I offer treats, or other incentives. In high school I served as a big sister, and that's when I gained my passion for kids, and the importance of educating others. That experience led me to apply for a service scholarship which I earned to attend Florida State University. In college I volunteered at a local elementary school, following a group of students as their tutor until I graduated college. This service led to the beginning of my teaching career in Broward County. I sponsored an after school step team, and served as a tea

All students have the ability to learn, but they do not learn the same way. It is the job of the teacher or tutor to evaluate each child's learning style and adapt the lessons or activities to the student's individual needs, so that they can be successful. Over the years, I have learned many ways to adapt lessons and meet these necessary needs. I am patient, creative, and determined to enable students to learn. I have learned to modify my techniques if they do not meet the needs of the student. I have a positive attitude and expect success when I work with my students. It is such a wonderful experience to assist a student in achieving success! I earned a Bachelor degree in Special Education from the University of North Florida. I currently teach at Mt. Herman Exceptional Student Center. I teach Intellectually Deficient students, ranging in age from 15-20 years old. I also have

For the last 25 years, I taught mathematics in grades 7-12 in central New York near Syracuse before I moved to Jacksonville. Although my focus has been math, I like to focus on study skills that best fit the learning style of the individual student, whether it is math or English or Social Studies. I also spent 3 years at Colgate University as a User Services Consultant in the Computer Laboratory. That title meant it was my responsibility to work with students on their resumes, cover letters, job applications and on any computer software that we supported. I definitely had to be flexible and knowledgeable in many areas! I have always taught math with an interdisciplinary team of teachers, so I get a perspective of "the entire kid." That way, if a student was not learning in my math class room, I looked for ways that made that student successful in other subjects that I could use in my

As an University of North Florida, special education gradate, I have always loved children with disabilities. I have pre-interned and interned in multiple special education settings and non special education settings. I have been an aspiring teacher for the past 5 years and I have completed that dream. I am qualified to teach various learning styles and challenge the desires that all children have to succeed. My teaching style is based on one thing...all children can succeed. I am the person that welcomes the challenges and weaknesses of students and turn those into successes. I am the teacher who students won't have to feel like they are not the best in the class based only on their grades, but encourage them that they are. Encouragement and celebration is the key to inspiring children to succeed.
