A Little Bit About Me...

I am able to relate to students using their learning style and references that connect them to the material for better success. I am patient and use my sense of humor to figure out how a student learns to get the best results. I do not believe that one method works for everybody. I have a lot of experience with students with learning challenges. I love it when a student says "Wow." I like to support and reward their path to understanding. It's best when you see that they are proud of themselves and they did it!
After graduating with a double major in Psychology and English with an emphasis in Literature, I started my graduate work in English and a teaching position as a high school English teacher. I took education certification courses and passed the state exam for the State of Florida for middle school and high school English. I was an instructional aide for Adult Education at Ma ... read more

My first major mentoring/teaching experience occurred in college when I began leading study groups and eventually organizing tutoring sessions with a number of my fellow English, Calculus, and Physics students. I then obtained a position as a youth counselor with the YMCA and quickly moved up to Site Coordinator where I was in charge of my own after school care group, including being in charge of organizing activities and managing youth counselors. Most recently I underwent PADI Divemaster training where I had real world experience teaching and assisting PADI Open Water students with classroom, confined water, and open water training.
My style tends to range based on who I am trying to teach, and I suppose is most accurately labeled as adaptive. I understand that different people learn things in different ways, and so I try to accommodate that with my teaching. Fo ... read more

As a Teacher Assistant I used to assess changing curricular needs and offers plans for improvement. Providing an educational atmosphere where students have the opportunity to fulfill their potential for intellectual, emotional, physical, spiritual and psychological growth. With my BA in Social Science , it help me to ensure that the student growth and achievement is continuous and appropriate for age group, subject area, and/or program classification.
I think that we have to a pproach every kids needs in different manners since every kid dont learn at a same pace or way than others.

Since January 2006 I have been teaching in the Dade County Public School System, having recently been promoted to Social Studies Department Head. I have taught AP American Government, AP European HIstory, AP US History, Ap World History, IB History, Law Studies, Contemporary History and Speech and Debate. I became a teacher after 15 years in the private practice of law.
I use the Socratic method. I challenge my students to respond to critical, higher level thinking questions. It is through this method that I secure positive results for the student. All students are capable of meeting their individual potential --- the key for the educator is understanding that one student's potential is not necessarily the same as another student's potential.

With a BA in Psychology from FIU, I have learned how all sorts of children react to different learning environments. I have been tutoring children for about 5 years in all different age ranges and subjects. Though the most common subject I have tutored would be math. I've been working in the Miami Dade public school system for about 2 years as a substitute teacher, where I have taught all sorts of subjects.
With experience in both teaching large class rooms and tutoring one on one; I've learned that each child has a different way of processing information and learning. Though I do believe in two general rules that need to be followed for success in learning. Practice makes perfect and hard work leads to success. Practice makes perfect is especially true when it comes to helping students in math. With this in mind, I do my best to make sure every student is comfortable with the mate ... read more

Throughout my educational career I have always found myself to have a very healthy appetite for knowledge. It was this drive that lead me to earn both a Master’s in Engineering and Bachelor’s of Science with a double major in Engineering and Economics. My desire to learn did not rest solely within the sciences. While in school, I took several classes in fields ranging from Philosophy to History to Creative Writing. It was also my pleasure to pass along my knowledge to many of my peers. For a large portion of my college career I worked as a teaching assistant, helping students with reports and projects within the fields of Math and Science.
An important lesson I learned is that every child is different. This is the most important fact to realize when attempting to teach a child. The most important traits that every teacher can have are patience and adaptability. It is my belief that ... read more
