Political Science is one of my top subjects! Political Science was the centerpiece of my studies at the University of Florida. In addition to academic experience, I have been politically active for 12 years on both the state and national levels. My academic experience covers domestic politics and internal relations. I have been tutoring in the areas of international/domestic political theory for three years.

Prior to serving in the United States Army, I was a successful entrepreneur in NJ. In 2003, I was recruited and after serving I returned to train troops at the Infantry Training Brigade at Fort Benning, GA. After returning home, I began working at a financial firm and became a licensed Investment Advisor and Asset Manager. I ran the Manasquan Edward Jones branch office until deciding to return to school. I studied Political Science at the University of Florida completing their International Relations program Cum Laude. Studies in International Relations focused on the international global economy, international agencies, national security, international political theory, and other aspects of public policy. I received minors in History and Chinese Language & Business Culture. While studying the Chinese Mandarin language, I became an asset to my Chinese counterparts (and visa versa) to gai ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated Magna Cum Laude for Political Science, earned my certification in International Relations and minored in Classics. I headed multiple study groups for my peers upon their request and I have a great ability to explain very complex theory in very easy to understand terms. I know how to word something multiple ways so that if you are not understanding it one way I can easily try something different. I do not over complicate anything. I try to simplify as much as possible then build from there.

I enjoy teaching because it allows me to contribute to a student's understanding of invaluable concepts which will improve and enrich their lives. I am sociable and easy to talk to, and I remember what it was like being in school and struggling with difficult concepts. All students can learn, and I believe that the key is finding a way for each individual student to personally relate to the material. If difficult concepts can be presented in a way that is tailored to each student's specific needs and interests, their potential may be reached.
As a graduate of the University of Florida, I earned two bachelor's degrees. My double major, Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineering, provided me with a thorough understanding of mathematics, physics, and chemistry. I also have a solid foundation in grammar and technical writing, due to the need for extensive explanation of diff ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching philosophy follows directly my understanding of history as an ongoing argument about a constantly proliferating subject. My goal as a teacher of history is not only to provide information, but also to model inquisitiveness about the past. On a practical level this means that I prefer to structure my teaching around primary sources and very recent examples of the historical writing. The study of scholarly discourse facilitates the analysis of primary sources from different point of view and encourages students to enter the historiographical debate themselves. This method instigates the interest to learn more about their subject and, above all, it forms their independent critical thinking.
I have earned my Ph.D. degree in European History in 2008 from the University of Florida. Currently, I am a professor in history at the University of Central Florida. My teaching experi ... read more

Although my chosen field of study is history, my passion is for education and learning. While earning both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees, I have acquired an essential skill set for working in the academic world, which includes excellent writing, reading, and critical-thinking skills, in addition to a proficiency in Spanish acquired through years of classroom study and travel in Latin America. In addition to two years of teaching at the college level, I also have experience working one-on-one with individual students to help them develop their skills in writing and critical thinking.
I believe that good teaching, like quality learning, comes with hard work. Having had the chance to see students grow with time, I have learned that patience, respect, and having fun are the best ingredients for a productive and positive learning experience.

I love teaching and working with children. I believe good communication is what makes life efficient. In my mind, good communication requires a positive, instructive, and detail manner. A better future requires a better education now, and how we pursue it is vital. Education empowers a mind, attitude empowers a lifestyle.
As a former student and professional athlete, I am a very self-motivated person. From the University of Florida I earned a B.A. in History and a Minor in Education. Last year, I worked in the classroom as a substitute teacher on all three major levels of grade school education. In addition, I have been a supervisor and counselor at various camps which require long hours and spendig individual time with children.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experiences have given me opportunity to teach/tutor students of different ages, ethnicities, and socio-economic statuses. At all levels, however, I have realized that all students are capable of success. The key to being an effective teacher/tutor is finding a way to engage the student so that they are active in the learning process. This will most likely differ from student to student, however knowing the variety of methods to try is an advantage of those with experience. Whether discussions, writing, critical thinking questions, or modeling is used, students will respond differently. Being able to effectively evaluate which process works best for the student is what separates the good teachers from the great teaches.

My teaching style embodies a combination of individualism and structure. Before I teach any subject, I dissect the topic to get to the fundamental root that may cause difficulties in learning. I break down the problem into a simple nature so that students can understand the logical reasoning of how to solve any problem. I believe that everyone has a unique learning style, so I use a flexible approach to better help students discover beyond just the right answer. Instead of just giving a student a few steps to memorize, I emphasize understanding why the solution makes sense, so that they may solve any problem regardless of their memorization abilities.

In my doctoral program, I am specializing in working with students with special needs and disabilities. Therefore, I strongly believe that every child can learn, but I realize that different children learn in different ways. I have learned and have experience implementing strategies and techniques to enable children to learn. I am very patient, easy going, and considerate, and my goal is to always provide children with the best education possible.
I first began my love of teaching and tutoring children when I was a senior in high school. As the president of my school's National Honor Society, I began a tutoring program that enabled elementary and middle school students to be tutored by high school students. I continued to volunteer and tutor students while I earned my BS in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University. I am furthering my interest in education ... read more
