I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything.

I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting.

I have attended private schools for my entire educational career except for the last few months of high school. I was raised to believe that education is one of the most important things one can attain for oneself. As an Early Admissions student, I was accepted to a private liberal arts college as a senior in high school. I always took classes full-time while working part time jobs and maintaining my Academic, Community Service, and Legacy scholarships. I never missed an opportunity to take classes over the summers. This helped accelerate me to graduate with a BA in Communications and a minor in Spanish by the age of 20. I speak Spanish fluently and I've earned several awards in writing and the fine arts. I have tutored students in several subjects including Spanish, English, Math, and Communications. I love kids and I'm definitely looking forward to the time when I will have some

For five years I taught swimming lessons. While swimming isnotan academic subject, this experience taught me the essentials of teaching. I worked with a large range of ages, from six months to sixty years. While in college I was a tutor/editor in the writing center all three years. Upon graduation I took two part time jobs tutoring English at elementary and secondary levels, at Knowledge Points of Tampa Bay and Lindamood- Bell learning processes of South Tampa. I rely heavily on Socratic questioning, to strengthen the students own thinking; my goal is for him/her to not need me. I use symbol and concept imagery language to ensure the student is not simply repeating, but seeing and understanding. Learning, especially at the lower levels, need not be boring, and I enjoy teaching through games, and in counter culture environments such as reading on bean bags or under a tree. I am flexible a

I subscribe to a comprehensive overview initially to provide a basic structural outline of course content and criteria for learning goals. Students can then "fill in" this overview outline as new content is introduced, with open discussion and query to gain additional insights. Daily affirmation of progress with focused discussion addressing areas of needing improvement to keep engaged with consistent monitoring. Assessments should be brief with subsequent feedback soon after testing. Keeping within the overview outline while working each course section will serve to assist in learning comprehension and retention while developing a long term knowledge of the overall course curriculum. At Miami Dade College ADA services, I tutored learning disabled college students in areas of algebra, social sciences, biology, English writing and comprehension for (2) years.

No matter what field I have worked in over the years, I have always made teaching a component of what I do. I love teaching children. It is a challenge to engage them in the process. I adapt my style to each child's needs and personality. Although I set boundaries, I am not comfortable with being a stern taskmaster. I always try to engage the child by listening to his or her concerns and anxiety. I find that once the student feels that you are interested in him or her as an individual, they are much more responsive to the efforts we can make together to help them with their school work. As an Ivy League graduate, majoring in American History and minoring in Education, I was accepted to graduate school at Columbia and Bank Street but got married instead. I have excellent skills in grammar, English literature, Biology, History and writing research papers as well as creative writing. I

I prepare lesson plans for each lesson so that you as a parent will see what we are covering, and I constantly monitor the student for understanding. I strongly believe I can help your child not only do better in their studies, but also believe in their own abilities. Everyone can succeed with hard work and patience! As an Ivy League graduate, I studied many different fields, including Economics, Sociology, Literature and Visual Art. I graduated as valedictorian of my high school class and scored a 2340/2400 on my SATs (800 Verbal, 800 Writing, 740 Math), as well as 800s on my French SAT II and Math IIC.

I started tutoring about three years ago and have found it very rewarding. My first assignment was as ESOL instructor with new citizens to the U.S. From that point on I have worked with High School and Middle School students in Math (Algebra, Geometry, Trig and basic math) in English (Grammar, Creative Writing, Reading Comprehension) and with some computer software (EXCEL, WORD). I believe in trying to detect specific weaknesses in a student's comprehension, and then trying to present materials that will clarify his understanding. My professional career was in the design and development of computer-based software applications. I worked for nearly 30 years on various computer platforms, using several different languages. I also spent two years at Gateway Community College (New Haven, CT) as ad hoc instructor in Accounting, Management, Computer programming and system design. Part of
