More About This Tutor...

As a teacher, I strive to create a positive classroom environment that fosters learning. My students are comfortable as they walk in my door because of the rapport I have established with them. They are so comfortable around me, that they can talk to me about almost anything. In my classes, I engage my students in open discussions and provide them with information that will allow them to think critically and make sound decisions. I also incorporate laughter in my classroom. We laugh while we learn. Overall, it is my main focus is to ensure that my students obtain an education that will lead them to being productive and successful citizens that they deserve.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been fortunate to teach students with Special Needs and Learning Challenges. In addition, I was able to teach Adult Basic education to inmates at a state prison. Due to the diversity of educational needs, I have been able to teach Math, Social Studies, History, Marine Biology, Horticulture, Biology, English, and Literature. During the past several years I have home-schooled my daughter and a several studentsby referral.
I enjoy seeing the "Light Bulb" come on when a student grasps a concept. I tend to defer to the students learning style and teach to their need and understanding. Over the years, I have found that this a most dynamic and effective means of imparting information. In addition, the student is more apt to retain information when taught in this manner.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a proud graduate from Florida State University, I have earned a BS in Psychology, with a focus on Applied Behavior Analysis, along with a minor in Criminology. While studying these disciplines, I have developed an extremely strong background in researching scientific data, a great repertoire of communication skills due to my multiple presentations, and the ability to properly produce exceptionally technical reports and proposals. I have used my wide range of knowledge gained from my various studies to tutor a now senior in high school for over a year, as well as helping others with high school to college level work in the fields of English, literature, psychology, music, math, and science.
By having a strong background in an analytical approach to studying human behavior, I understand the process of not only how we learn, but also how to effectively teach. This specific train ... read more

My teaching style is very simple, but is one that took a long time to learn. In college you are taught everything but HOW to teach. I learned the HOW by watching my teachers and having some very good mentors. I began to ask myself, " why do I learn more from this instructor than that instructor?" No matter what the subject is, you have to learn 2 things to reach the student. One, how does this student learn. Two, you can't force the information. I feel that a student learns more and shows more excitement when they are allowed to find answers on their own. This also takes building a relationship with the student.

I approach teaching in a way that is very versatile and I am willing to adapt to accommodate a variety of learning styles. In general however I tend to back up and work on the material that the student already is familiar and comfortable with. Once some review on the known material has been done I like to begin moving toward the material that is currently being reviewed. The length of time spent in the "review phase" is completely dependent on the student's current situation. Some situations might require a mere problem or two in this phase, while others might require additional time understanding the fundamentals before moving to the more complex current problems.

I've always enjoyed the opportunity to explain things I'm familiar with to people who need it explained. That said, I prefer a teaching environment in which the student has the opportunity to discuss the subject, and I like to keep examples practical if at all possible. As an aspiring psychologist, I also understand the value of positive reinforcement for good work, and try to use it whenever I possibly can.
As a student of psychology, I have always been interested in using my knowledge to help others improve themselves. My experience teaching academic subjects is fairly limited, however, for the past four years I have volunteered as an assistant instructor at my martial arts school whenever my sensei has needed the help, which has given me ample opportunity to work on my teaching techniques with a wide variety of students. Currently I am working with a group of younger children on ... read more

I am in my sixth year of teaching in elementary school, and previous to that I taught for 3 years (GED prep, Life Skills, Cognitive Skills) at a prison. Prior to that, I worked as a Social Worker for ten years for the Florida Dept. of Children & Families. I currently teach ESE students at Tommy Smith Elementary, and through my varied background I have gained expertise in relating to diverse cultures, ethnicities, and classes of people. Most of the kids in my class struggle tremendously with learning, which in turn often leads to a low self esteem. I try to encourage and build them up, and as their confidence grows, learning gains ususually follow.
Many of the things in life that we don't "get" are things we don't understand. When teaching, I try to break things down and simplify them so they can be easily understood. Often the kids in my class are those who do not like to b ... read more

Children are individuals and you must find their style of learning and be able to adapt your teaching style for that child. I believe that you must geniunely love children and teaching to be able to reach children. They can sense when someone really cares.

Throughout my education experience, I was taught that whole learning is the best form of education. An education is not just gained through books; every life experience is capable of teaching a child. Math can be taught through books, games or even by counting the number of sprinkles on their sundae. Science can be taught by explaining why the cloud is in the sky and why it is raining. My experience has taught me that each child is different and how they learn is different. Each experience must be tailored to each child and when accomplished the child will excel. This is not always easy, but the reward of seeing that moment of comprehension in a child’s eyes is worth the effort!
I began my teaching experience during college by first working as a teacher’s aide, after which I transitioned into substitute teaching, tutoring and after school care. Eventually I graduated and worked ... read more

Today's students are tomorrow's leaders. That is why I am highly motivated to pass on as much knowledge as I can to as many students as I can. I do realize that all students learn differently. That is why my teaching style is one of patience. I will help a student out as long as it takes. I won't give up. I also try to create a comfortable learning environment. No one can learn if they are uptight or scared. Because kids will be kids, I sometimes have to be "hard", but I am never "mean". If given the right opportunities and mentorship, all students can have unlimited potential in life.
