I was born in Jamaica; however I am a citizen of the United States of America. I am from a very large family where education and hard work were our mantra.

In his later years, my father was the owner of a real estate development company and commercial farming. My mother attended the University of the West Indies and Shortwood Teachers’ College and has recently retired from her position as the principal for a primary and junior high school in Jamaica and she is also a Justice of the Peace which is equivalent to a Mayor.

Effective communication with students has two dimensions that can be addressed: stimulating students' interest in and engagement with the course material by making it relevant to their lives that evoke their interest and appropriately challenge them. As an instructor I am providing a student with the knowledge, concepts and skills which enhance their academic goals. How to best demonstrate these competencies will vary from individual to individual. What is important is that I consciously set out to do so, both in the selection of materials to include, and in my explanations of why and how those materials were used. For instance, articulating learning outcomes consistent with how students learn. My philosophy does not guarantee that individuals will be better thinkers or students, but I believe it provides a valuable base to help them think more clearly. It has always involved both th

I believe in life long learning and I encourage children to apply themselves to do their very best.I also encourage children to determine what their best learning style is and to apply their learning style to fit their specific needs. For example some children require a more sequential repetitive approach to learning. Other children require a system in which they practice what they know through an oral approach or a hands on approach to learning.

I am a firm believer that every student given an opportunity has the ability to learn. They also must be given an opportunity to learn in the style in which they learn the best, be it visual, auditory or hands-on. I believe and practice a constructivist model of learning. I see multicultural education as a way of reaching all students so that they have an equal opportunity to learn. Students in the future must be prepared for a world job market and tutoring can provide these children with a great opportunity to enhance their skills. I have a BA degree from the University of Central Florida in Education and a current Florida Teaching Certificate. I have taught high school for 18 years before relocating. At that time I worked in the informal education field as an afterschool program teacher and manager of a educational programming business, educational director at a Museum and Nature Cente

Almost all students get excited about learning when it is presented in a manner that fits their learning style and is appropriate for their ability/level. Assessment of both is mandatory before you can begin effective and meaningful instruction. Once these assessments are completed, learning objectives should be identified and consistently evaluated. Spiraling curriculum is a strategy that I frequently use with students during tutoring session. It allows a learner to activate their prior knowledge and then build upon it. It immediately allows a sense of accomplishment and confidence. I also utilize several medium in order to ensure my student remains engaged in the learning process. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from the University of Missouri in 1993. Since graduation, I have acquired 15 years of experience through classoom teaching, tutoring and e
