Exams all come down to prep and organization! I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math and science twice a week for two years. After college, I moved into the marine science profession. In August of 2008, I started teaching High School Biology I, Earth and Space Science, and Physical Science to students in Polk County. In addition, after school hours were spent with two students taking AP Biology classes. Both students achieved a 4 or higher on their placement exams. My tutored students reported an increase in their ability to record class notes, study, and take tests. My previous tutoring experiences have included subjects such as; elementary science, elementary math, Algebra (I & II), Geometry, Pre- Calculus, Anatomy, Physiology, Biology (bot

I find that incorporating creative and fun learning techniques into academic lessons greatly improves student motivation. I enjoy learning the strengths and interests of the student in order to create opportunities to help them reach their full potential. I believe in using positive reinforcement and natural incentives in the learning process. My experience has taught me that students need to know the boundaries for classroom behavior. I believe this can be done in a positive, guiding fashion that leads to mutual respect of both teacher and student. Activities and projects help bring learning to life, so I enjoy making decisions together with the student which projects they would like to create. For example, we may create the solar system or learn to do a "Landscape" painting. As a Social Worker, I have gained many skills in working with people. My field has allowed me to gain exp

I sincerely believe that I have the ability to draw on an individual student's strengths. By having goals that are clear and objectives that help the student sense progress and success, I work with students to take them from where they are to the next place for them to be. Many students have told others that I am one of their favorite teachers. I believe this is because my students know I care, and that I enjoy them as individuals. I have been a well respected teacher in the state of Maine for 18 years. My experience has been in elementary education, teaching middle school language arts and social studies, and also training and mentoring teachers to use technology in their classrooms. I currently have my Florida certification and if the opportunity presents itself, would consider a full time teaching position here in the Sunshine state. I would enjoy tutoring in all subjects, and bel

I was raised in the Montessori teaching environment, so I am very involved with hands-on teaching methods, and relating subjects to real life experiences. I enjoy watching children grow and progress into self-motivated, independent individuals, who are self-confident in many areas. I believe all children no matter what age have the potential to do amazingly well in school and with their education depending on how much individual attention is placed on them, including constant positive reinforcement. While I was in college I began working as a teachers assistant at a Montessori School, I soon started privately tutoring students after school at the same location. I am a very hard working, organized, and outgoing person. I tutored students in Math, English, History, Behavioral Sciences and also taught private dance lessons.

I have been in education for eight years, where I specialized in second language acquisition, ESOL, literacy, grammar, high school language and literature, and intermediate-level language arts. I also have taught at 3 different colleges: Furman University, where I taught graduate level TESOL classes; Converse College, where I taught graduate level TESOL classes, and Greenville Technical College, where I taught adult-level grammar, writing, and listening and speaking classes. My experience ranges from grades 4 to college-level teaching; however, my favorite is teaching adults in small group settings. I am used to working with students from a variety of diverse backgrounds, including many ethnicities from around the world, students with learning disabilities, advanced students, and those struggling with reading, writing, and literacy. My teaching style is a reflection of the way I liv

Patient, clear. I have worked several years with young children and believe I have a great deal of patience. I would describe my teaching style as comfortable and non intimidating. I love to see children learn and become confident in themselves. I have been a substitute teacher and also am certified to teach Pre-K through 6th Grade in Brevard County. I have a college degree in Business. I spent several years working in the corporate business environment. After that, I became a Home Daycare Provider for young children, which allowed me to spend more time with my 2 children. I love watching the children learn and grow every day.

I took every math course offered by a 4 year college, student taught for one 6 week session, and took some educational courses. After home educating my 4 children for 17 years, I returned to school to complete an AA degree in liberal arts and a BA degree in sociology. I now work as a math teacher working with children who range in age from 9-17 and have special needs. I never give up on a child or an adult. I recently tutored a law enforcement official to help him understand and pass algebra. He didn't think anyone could help him. The schools told me my son would never learn to read or write. He is my only child out of four who reads lengthy books for pleasure. Everyone has a different style of learning. My teaching methods I alter to suit those needs. I spent three years trying to help my dyslexic son learn to read one sentence. I have patience and I love helping people. I am also

I have had the experience of being taught by wonderful, kind, caring, and patient teachers. I have also experienced the teachers who are harsh, impatient, and ridiculing. Through these experiences, I realized that I learned much more through the teachers who were patient and caring. The teacher makes all the difference. Teachers are extremely important in molding and shaping the learning lives of their students. I strive to make learning fun and exciting, because a child/student who is having fun will want to learn more and not just the bare minimum to get by. These skills will last a lifetime. I know that each child/student learns differently, therefore, in my approach to teaching, I try to discern their learning style and best suit my teaching to fit that style. Children/students need exposure to a wide variety of concepts and in a wide variety of mediums. I am committed to prov

Since my days as a graduate student, I love to learn, as both student and teacher. As teacher, I've taught Humanities at the Junior College level, teaching Fine Arts, Music, English literature and Philosophy. I've taught students to make connections, relationships, between what they see and hear. Sight and Sound, then, allow them to develop their thinking in ways that isolated thought or thought patterns preclude. I've learned the Humanities are wonderful resources for thinking, as they for developing 'intuitive imagination.' In addition to classroom teaching, I've tutored students in their homes, in environments that support love and freedom, using Calvert's Home School Program. I've developed tutorial pilot programs for the US Army, developing recruits mastery of High School Math and English skills. I love writing, research. I encourage students to relate among them

I love teaching children and young adults. I understand how to connect with people on a level on which they feel comfortable. I take the time to get to know the children so that I can teach them in the ways that will best suit them. I tend to be a creative teacher - I enjoy hands-on activities. I love writing and I believe it is an essential part to the education of every child. For the past 4 years I have taught children (infant-5 years) developmental skills and early childhood education. I earned my CDA while I was the teachers aid for the VPK progam at Eau Gallie High School. I also worked at Pinecrest Academy where I taught 1-2 year olds developmental skills. Currently, I am working for a family, teaching their four children basic childhood education. I will have my AA this May and I plan to obtain my BA in Communications with a minor in Journalism.

Education should be relevant to students’ desired career, and frequently updated to trends in technology and business. The talent of the teachers should inspire interest in all students. The teacher should have superb communicative abilities. Participation and activity of students should be active and not passive, including interaction with the real world, class discussion and frequent assignments, and the encouraging of collaborative discussions outside of class. I would be happy to document previous academic success with exceptionally high student evaluations regarding my enthusiasm, teaching ability, and motivational skills.

I have always had a passion for education, whether it is teaching youth or adults. I have gained about 3 additional years of teaching and now am working in a higher education setting. I hold a degree in special education which focused on the needs of learning disabled students, though required I still maintain the same knowledge of a licensed educator. Along with a degree in special education I own a degree in psychology. Cumulatively, this allows me to grasp a sense of the student’s feelings, emotions and expressions while learning, which in turn makes the session a lot more conducive. I feel I am able to connect with students through their strengths and weaknesses and use that to find the best strategy to ensure excellent learning. I like to encourage and support my students. Many students don’t want to learn or do not feel they can succeed. When a student is positive and feels that se
