If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent through her citizenship exam practice. Another was when I prepped a friend for a lifeguard exam that she had failed twice. Seeing my students of all ages succeed is a joy.
My motto is if at all possible, I want ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children can learn and learn well. I enjoy working with students and teaching has always been a passion of mine. Before moving to Florida, I tutored at a community college in CT. I worked with students in the areas of French, Spanish and English. In Florida, I worked for six years as a paraprofessional at a school for children with learning disabilities. I have worked with many students in various areas for home school and public school. I taught grades 2 to 12 in math, reading and history. I am certified in Structure of the Intellect, that focuses on how a child learns based on 27 different intelligences in order to make proper gains in education. I am currently working for a private school in the Baldwin Oaks area as a math teacher for grades 3-9. Many of our children have learning differences so it is up to me to understand how they learn the complex world of math ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I have over 15 years of tutoring experience, over 5 years of Academic Teaching Experience, which includes being a Student Advocate and Para-Educator. I have a degree in Psychology, and one of my focus is Learning Disabilities, ADD/ADHD, and Behavioral Modification. While working as a Student Advocate I had to: Work with at-risk elementary children Motivate children to learn and improve their conditions Meet with students one-on-one-, in groups settings, and do classroom presentations on character building lessons. Behavioral management and discipline plans Keep track on truancy problems Conduct Suicide Prevention Groups. As a Para-Educator my tasks included: Help elementary students from 2nd grade to 6th grade in their writing and reading skills. Work with students who have moderate to severe disabilities (learning, physical, and mental disabilities). Teaching functional and academic skills. Work with students in small groups. Use appropriate techniques for student and classroom management. Direct small groups of students in various areas of academics.

I have always enjoyed teaching and helping others to learn. I don't believe in "I can't do it" or "I can't learn". I believe that anyone can learn anything as long as they're willing to learn and put an effort to do so. What is different is that some people have more ability than other to learn certain tasks, but eventually, everyone can learn. It is all a matter of adapting oneself to the student's need and ability to learn. My goal is to make the student learn what they set up their mind to learn in the first place, and help them improve their condition. It is very rewarding to see that you have made a difference in their lives.
Having parents that place a great emphasis in achieving higher education, I graduated from high school with the age of 15 years old and was accepted in National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, for the degree in Life Science Biology. While studying in T ... read more

I teach with the brain in mind. Although I keep the standards and lesson plan in mind, I find creative ways to teach each child individually. I believe if the child is given direct instructions combined with their preferred learning style, more learning will take place.
My experience has been predominantly focused on helping students who need individualized instruction. I realize that all children learn differently and their learning experience should reflect this fact. I have taught students ranging from PreK (VPK- volutary prekindergarten) to high school. While working on my master's thesis topic of reducing the disproportionate representation of minorities in special education, I realized that a majority of the problems stemed from early childhood education. Therefore, I have began a quest to complete my Doctor of Education focusing on preparing students from early child ... read more

During the last fourteen years, I have made it my goal to read about two books per week. During this period, I have taught myself the computer, trained students in a variety of subjects, and home educated three children. It has been my privilege to work with a number of students, encouraging them in their learning and helping them to build up their basic skills. Tutoring continues to be one of my favorite tasks, and I hope to continue in this career field indefinitely.
Through attention to the basics while keeping the atmosphere light, I am able to help children find their way to academic success. By encouraging the children to talk about their favorite subjects, I am able to tailor each session to their individual tastes. This has allowed my students to attain a high level of productivity in the time allotted to our tutoring sessions. As a skilled writer, I find that even the leas ... read more

More About This Tutor...

A love of learning has always been my trademark. As a child, I came home excited after school every day, eager to share what I'd learned. Yet, when I found myself hitting a wall in math a few times, I learned what it was to fear school. My goal as a tutor is to move a student past that challenge so he or she can view learning as a fun, exciting experience. With patience and encouragement, I believe everyone can feel this way.
Getting to know each of my students as an individual is the first step in my tutoring process. Seeing the world through his or her eyes helps me to connect the learning to the student's own paradigm or viewpoint. In my education courses, I learned the technical terms for what I've always known -- when a student can feel part of the process, he or she is well on the way to understanding. My students become part of the process, and as a rule, my students learn.

My teacher style is to first identify the specific area the student is struggling with. I help the students develop skills to better tackle the area. I believe in presenting the material in several different ways until the student understands it. I work hard to make learning a positive, fun and encouraging experience.
I am currently a School Psychologist for the school system. My job is to help identify students who have learning problems and develop interventions to target these problem areas. Since I have summers off, I usually work as a teacher/tutor. I absolutely love working with children on a one-to-one basis. I have experience working with students in Elementary School through College.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children can learn, maybe "not in the same way or on the same day" but at their own pace and to their learning style. Therefore I endeavor to teach/tutor to students' learning style and to their preferred learning modality. I use data to drive my instruction so I pretest, teach, review, test, reteach and retest where necessary until skills are acquired. With my degree and experience in special education, I have a deep understanding of what each student needs to achieve their best and this gives me the advantage as I teach different levels and courses. I have an excellent track record of student achievement.
After graduating from Teachers College and also earning a bachelor's degree in sociology, teaching at the elementary level I desired to further my education in an area where I could better assist students to be successful. I have since earned an M. Ed in Spec ... read more
