I am a recent Bachelor of Science in Child Studies graduate of FGCU and hold a current FCCPC. I am considered a non-traditional graduate (which in my case means older), and I bring with me a range of personal and professional experiences that have developed and enhanced my capacity for learning, teaching, and adaptability. My primary interest in learning is focused on the social-emotional and cognitive influences that create the optimal conditions for brain function during the learning process. Providing both the necessary supportive social-emotional environment through positive guidance as well as the cognitive stimulation that physical, sensory, and creative and artistic activities produce are fundamental to implementing a brain-based learning approach, and I am trained to integrate hands-on activities across the curriculum and learning domains that relate to real world experiences

I like to make teaching fun! If a student is bored they aren't going to be putting 100% into their work. I also use a positive reward system and celebrate all achievement. Even if it is minor. I have been working with kids of all ages for a long time. I love to see them learn and grow. That moment when they "get" something is magical! I spent the 2011-2012 school year teaching at a title 1 school in Collier County and have grown exponentially from it! I had several students in my class who needed special help, and half of my class were English language learners. These students have helped me to strengthen my skills and adapt to different student's styles.

I have always loved working with children. I’m a strong believer that the most successful teachers are the ones who are able to recognize how their student learns and find ways to adapt the teaching style so that the child can be successful. In order to do this it is important for the teacher student relationship to be strong and trusting. I am patient and determined. I believe that not all children learn the same ways and it is important to incorporate all styles of teaching into the curriculum. I believe that children are all given wonderful talents and it is a teacher’s job to help extract these talents and develop them starting at an early age. I graduated Central Connecticut State University with a bachelor degree in Early Childhood Education/Human Growth and Development with a concentration in English. Through my coursework I was able to develop the necessary skills to deliver l

I have taught for 20+ years in Germany (mainly Math, English and Reading) and for 4 years in Kansas City, MO. There I taught all core subjects: Math, Language Arts, Science and Social Studies. Right now I have got several part time jobs: I work as a sub at a colligiate high school (all subjects), I will teach German at the Edison College in Fort Myers (Continuing Education) and I tutor for a private company doing SES tutoring - Reading and Math. I have prepared young people to do their GED, too. The subjects I did there were Math, Science and American History. I love educating children and adults and strongly believe in lifelong learning. Since I have taught at several levels and even in different countries, I use different teaching techniques. My goal is to help the learner to get the best education possible.

Teach a man to fish...is for life. Tutoring is the same, especially with younger children. I haven't met a student yet who is unable to learn. My job is to find the method that will best enable students to self-actualize their learning. A success is converting the child's approach and passion for learning. If I helped to change the child's mind about learning, I have literally altered the course of his/her life in a positive way. I have a versatile background that began with two business degrees and progressed to a professional career in purchasing and sales. I discovered along the way that my true passion was teaching and I can be more effective in a tutoring one-on-one situation than a classroom setting. I am highly proficient and have tutored nearly all subjects and grade levels.

Teaching is my passion. I love to see the look on a child’s face when they have grasped a concept. Through my experiences I have learned that children are all different and learn in many different ways. The challenge of figuring out the best way for your child to learn, I find to be a great opportunity. I am a very understanding, motivated, and hard working person who wants the very best for each and every child I have the chance to work with. I believe in hard work. I believe in teaching by example and giving students the most opportunities to try their best. I am in favor of guided discovery. I am devoted to making a difference in the lives of children. I have always felt that academics are a vital aspect of my life. I have maintained a 4.0 grade point average while working on my bachelor’s degree and also in my studies for my master’s degree.
