Have worked with several students and teachers in preparation for both the Mass. and Fl. certification exams--General Knowledge and English (content and pedagogy). After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as well

I have always enjoyed allowing students to have a variety of learning methods presented to them. I have utilized group projects, individual projects. Class room activities such as mock trials and guest speakers from areas peprtinant to our class room topic. I utilize the school district reuired texts for a foundation or break away point to facilitae an expantion with special interest topics and projects. It is my objective to touch upon the skills, knowledge and learning style of each student. I have found my personal joy comes from making a difference in each student's life.

The skills and experiences in law enforcement have given be a strong base to draw upon for teaching Civics and History. I taught American histo

I discovered my love of teaching when I started volunteering as a reading tutor and youth group leader. I am most effective when I work with students in a one-on-one or small group setting, which allows me to focus on individual students’ strengths and challenges. I customize my approach with each student’s particular learning style in mind. My goal is that students understand and learn to think critically and independently, not simply memorize. When I see a child’s eyes light up with understanding and smile at accomplishment, I know I have succeeded in making a difference. While completing my B.A. in Management at Eckerd, I learned how to write effectively and enhanced my understanding of grammar, mathematics, history, social studies and economics. As a volunteer tutor at a public school and at my church, I began to develop my teaching skills. These rewarding experiences motivated

A positive environment and methodology is very important in the learning experience - especially if that learning experience is rooted in frustration. I do my best to connect the concept to a student's personal experience so they may relate and build confidence. Humor can be critical too. I work hard to create buy in from the students so they have a genuine stake in their learning and a true partnership in discovering how to master concepts. I want to learn how they learn best so we can increase success and apply those methods when we are experiencing a learning block. All students can learn and be successful, we all have different ways of reaching that success. I love working and learning with students of all ages. I enjoyed working in a magnet high school that concentrates on leadership, career development, and breaks the mold teaching methods. I earned a Masters degree in Library

I love teaching and after twenty years experience in education, still am at it! I believe in differentiated instruction, so I modify assignments and assessments to meet the learning needs of each student. I am a very patient, enthusiastic and fun teacher. I believe in appealing to students' interests, since we learn best when we are motivated by personal investment in the topic. I try to appeal to students' multiple intelligences, bringing in art and music to the learning process. I have almost 10 years working as an elementary classroom teacher, elementary reading specialist, middle school reading specialist, and middle school English teacher. In addition, I have worked in educational assessment for state departments of education and for testing corporations. Moreover, I have worked as a professor of teacher education as of college composition. Currently I work as an adjunct reading pr

Maria Montessori, one of the most powerful women in the foundation of educational philosophy, once said "Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life.” Each child must be seen as the individual that they are. Special attention needs to be placed on a child's growth both physically and emotionally and the education of that particular child should be the focus of the teacher. Each student should be viewed as a success.Focus should be placed on a child's strengths while working to build and boost those areas which are not their strongest. As a teacher, you have the power to make an impact. During my time as a student in the University of Florida's Proteach Program I had many opportunities to work in various classroom settings and ultimately receive a Master's Degree in Elementary Education with a specialization in children's literature. Since my graduatio

Technology is part of our daily life, our student are technology oriented; I use technology in my classroom to help them relate to the subject. Since the beginning of my career I have been integrating different subject to my classroom in order for them to see the relationship between a language and their surroundings. When I taught adults I did the same, this time the subjects changed in order to help them loose the fear of learning another language I have been a certified and committed teacher for the past 10 years. I started my career in the subject I studied in 1999. In 2002 I had the opportunity to work at a Technical institute where I taught:English,Spanish,Microsoft Office Programs,Accounting (Basic procedures),Computer Repair For the past 2 years I have been an English Teacher at the International Baseball Academy (for the grades 7th –12th ) in this institution I had the

As a graduate of the University of Florida, I earned a BS degree in Education and Business. While interning at Gainesville High School I learned that understanding teen-agers was the key to teaching. Students are sometimes confused that education and goal setting are much more important than social satisfaction/needs. Key here is to listen, learn and be patient with the student to grab their needs and utilize their strenths. Thank you. When you figure out the motivational and emotional needs of a child, teaching becomes easier but still a challenge. When a student can grasp the basics/core of a subject and really absorb this beginning information, we can move forward using their abilities of discovery regarding the subject. I look forward to assisting in the future of their educational development. Thank you.

I emphasize individual techniques tailored to the needs of each student. I am patient and work at rates and times suitable to each student. I have tutored in Social Studies and English. Because I am very literate, I am able to work with students to help them learn difficult language and social studies constructs. I taught for thirty years at Oak Hills High School in Cincinnati, Ohio. I taught Social Studies with an emphasis on Psychology and History of the American West. I taught at the College of Mt. St. Joseph on the Ohio during the 1980's with an emphasis on Psychology and Technical Writing. I tutored two students while we lived in Key West, Florida during 2003.

I believe that each child's talents and abilities need to be nurtured through creative and constructive curriculum and delivery, including acknowledging the importance of integrating playtime with instruction. I have worked in many educational environments - public and private schools; juvenile detention facilities and home school cooperatives - each place offering it's own rules and protocol for developing and nurturing a child. One approach that I used in ALL these facilities yielded the best results for both child and educator (me!) and that was simply to follow this rule: provide trust and mutual respect, and give enough room for students to learn to make real, responsible choices in pursuing their true interests. I am a creative educator and development professional with over 15 years teaching, curriculum development and program implementation experience spanning several countries a
