I love teaching and working with all students. My teaching style is based on the student's learning style and interests. I use visual, tactile and auditory instructional methods when presenting information and/or teaching skills and concepts. As we know students' learning differ in readiness for content, interests and how he/she learns,therefore it is my job to identify his/her needs. I believe all children are life long learners. I supply and deliver information in a manner in which the student comprehends and builds upon. I am a true believer in the following phrase "the more ways you teach, the more students you reach." I choose teaching as a life long career because this is how I can make a difference in children's lives.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I was a reading teaching at a Christian school in Florida and as a result the students under my directions did well all but one.

My style of teaching is more of a participant style. I enjoy when students contribute to class discussions. It brings joy to my heart when a child finds a task complicated and eventually succeeds. Many of the children that I have taught often call me. It is my belief, that as an educator I must be creative and see each child as an individual and not as a group. As an educator, I am responsible for not only teaching students but for coaching, mentoring, tutoring and inspiring young minds to achieve greatness.
I have taught both adults and youth. I was instrumental in assisting adults in obtaining their high school diploma and college degree. As a youth teacher, I was responsible for teaching students to read and as a result of their improving in this area; I was promoted to a teacher’s position. I have tutored students on an individual basis, and a result they were able to be prom ... read more

I believe in an independent learning style, leading the student to discover the right answer; not just supplying it without them having to work. It is important to make sure that students know the background of whatever they are learning so they can grasp the concepts inside and out.
I am a student at the University of South Alabama studying to be an elementary school teacher. I will graduate in December of 2014. I have experience with lesson planning, therefore, I am familiar with the curriculum that is used by the public school system. I know what is required for elementary school students and I have had adequate training in the instruction of grades K-6, as well as special education.

Curriculum tailored to the specific needs of the client, is successful if interaction is achieved through the use of a learners contract. Goal orientation, achievement and praise allows to student to push beyond the limitations that life circumstances afford. Active involvement in the development of lesson plans that interest the student has proven to be vital. Mainstream education sometimes misses this valuable link. Follow up, focus on the task at hand, and challenging to excel are necessary components of the style that I utilize.

I graduated from the University of South Alabama with an Elementary Education degree in December of 2005. During this time, I completed my student teaching at Holloway Elementary School. During the year of student teaching, I learned to work with diverse learning styles, varying stages of development as well as a multitude of learning tools.
I enjoy working with children of all ages. It is the duty of the teacher to meet children where they are and help them develop skills in their unique learning style. Learning should be interesting; an exploration of their world. I am patient, kind and enjoy encouraging children in their potential. Every child can learn, it is my goal to give every student the best education and enrich their lives in the process.

A Little Bit About Me...

My lessons are student-centered and driven by mastering basic skills, in an effort to acquire the skills necessary to take on more challenging academic material. It is my belief that children are subject to many advantages in today's classroom with the integration of technology and interactive learning. However, with so many children spending excessive time watching TV, playing video games, etc., it is difficult for the classroom setting to compete. I believe that tutors can help bridge the gap in information that students may have had during the school year.

More About This Tutor...

I have always loved to work with children. My job while in college was teaching children at a learning center. I also have tutored several children throughout the years that were having difficulties in either math or English. I have a strong background in math and English, but also have experience in psychology, sociology, and science. I believe a child can achieve whatever they put their mind to, but some times they need a little push to achieve that. There is no need to get frustrated with a child during a learning process because they are during their best and it is our jobs as adults to guide them in the right direction.
As a college graduate, I desire to constantly succeed at my efforts on a daily basis. I earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Social Counseling and BS in Behavioral Management, which has lead me into the helping profession. I also possess an AA degree in juvenile ... read more
