Florida Writes Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Melbourne, FL

For the past 5 years I have worked with 4th grade students in school classrooms as well as tutored for FCAT Writes test. I have many tips and techniques to use when tutoring a student in writing. I absolutely love teaching and working with children. Children learn in unique and individual ways and sometimes struggle in school work because they learn at a different pace than the class as a whole. Individual and small group instruction greatly benefits these children in many ways. They have a chance to ask questions, to deal with specific areas of difficulty and to have better self-esteem when they discover they can learn and master the challenges of reading, writing, and math. Nothing is more fulfilling as a teacher than to see a happy face on a child who has discovered the joy of learning. As an English major in Education at the University of Alabama, I took many specialized courses

As a Social Worker, I have gained many skills in working with people. My field has allowed me to gain experience teaching in a variety of settings. I have taught students at the high school level in the areas of health education and general academic support. I had the experience of working as a Coordinator in a bi-lingual school in Guatemala which gave me the opportunity to be in the classroom guiding teachers and modeling techniques. While in Guatemala, I also had the opportunity to teach English as a second language to adults and adolescents. Opportunities through advanced study have given me valuable experience in writing and language study. 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 f

I believe that children all have the capacity to learn, in their own ways and speed and that it is the responsiblity of the teacher to discover this capacity and nuture it.If children understand the value of learning, they will learn better. A teacher is responsible for providing an educational atmosphere where students have the opportunity to fulfill their potential for intellectual, and emotional growth. A teacher is responsible for organizing and implementing an instructional program that will result in students achieving academic success.My characteristics that will facilitate this success include enthusiasm,preparation, punctuality, support & concern for the student,consistency, firmness and control. My focus in social work and mentoring youth has encompassed over twenty years of experience including work history as a Casework Supervisor with Big Brothers/Big Sisters,a counselor wi

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.

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 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.

My teaching style is a reflection of the way I live my life. I am rather laid back with a good sense of humor, but I know when and how to work hard. I conduct my classes in a fun yet purpose-driven fashion. I believe all students can reach their goals with appropriate motivation from a teacher and self-efficacy on their part; however, I also believe not all students can be reached in the same way. Many students have obstacles to learning, be they internal or external, and those must first be addressed in order to determine the correct path to take in teaching the student. I view myself as a strong teacher, but also as an educational facilitator who strives to guide students to their own realizations instead of handing them what I feel is the "right" way. I have been in education for eight years, where I specialized in second language acquisition, ESOL, literacy, grammar, high school

Teaching students between 6th and 9th grades has been a joy to me for many years! I am kind, patient, energetic and funny. As an educator, I am one who likes the learning process to be as painless and as enjoyable as it can be, for all involved. However, I am realistic in my knowledge that there are many children who have a negative impression of learning, and may be struggling. However, the challenge of reaching all students is what makes teaching something I love and do well. I am a teacher who loves to get kids excited to learn, to enjoy learning, and to take pride in themselves at what they can accomplish. My personality and experience have been a winning combination in helping kids succeed for many years! As a native Floridian,I was exposed to an excellent educational environment in both the private and public school system growing up. My mother was a teacher and I chose the
