I want your student to feel comfortable with learning and understanding the best way to retain that information and organize it into their life. I will help your child focus and and improve the grade level they are currently struggling with or even if they are looking for a positive edge.

I feel that the most important step to being an effective teacher is to make the material relevant. If the student does not see a relevant reason to learn the material, the learning curve will be much steeper. Then, I work hard to be sure the student understands my commitment to partner with him/her in the learning process, and that process is a two-way street. And, once I've determined the method of learning that works best for a student, I design the material to accommodate that method. Once these goals are met, success is assured. My experiences as the oldest of seven children instilled in me the desire to educate others, so I obtained my BS degree in Biology and Secondary Education. I taught 7th and 8th grade sciences for five years before staying home to be a full time mother and substitute teaching on the high school level for 3 more years. I operated a small daycare during m

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. For instance if I found that a student learns better visually then I would attempt to use visual cues and examples in lesson plans to make the material as easy to understand as possible. I also believe in keeping a very loose and pleasant atmosphere, and making sure that everyone feels comfortable and safe, which I believe also assists in the learning process. 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 t

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 the world of ideas (theory) and the world of practical activity (real-world scenarios), resulting in an integration of good ideas (theory) that can lead to good practices (real-world scenarios), and good practices that can lead to good ideas. It’s designed around a framework - a methodology for keeping on track and maintaining responsibility to protect the institution, the students, fellow colleagues, and the community. It’s a code - intended to clarify my mission, values and principles linking them with standards of professional conduct. Effective communication with students has two dimensions that can be addressed: stimulating students' interest in and engagement with the course material by makin

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. My father attended the Oxford University in England and later became a Civil Engineer where he worked in Israel and in Jamaica. He was also a member of parliament in Jamaica. 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. As educators, my parents have instilled in me the value of education and how it can be used as a stepping stone to endless possibilities. Having a strong educational foundation is extremely im

As a senior and after graduation, I tutored accounting students in order to assist with the understanding of accounting principles. I have spent many years training entry level accountants in many different industries and have a particular concentration in health care. I have 33 years of financial accounting experience in a variety of settings and have held positions from a staff accountant to a corporate treasurer involved in taking the first penny stock public since the days of Mr. Brennen and the First Jersey Scandal. This alone took 3 years of negotiations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Teaching by example with the use of hands-on experience and exercises is the best method for learning the actual practice of accounting. Text books teach only very basic theory and are not as useful for practice as it eists in the real world. The studennts must understand theory but must
