I graduated with a BA in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in May 2007. I worked at Savanna Oaks Middle School in Verona, WI as an Educational Assistant specializing in Special Education for one year. I created lesson plans and designed educational tools for various students’ needs, helped students with proper social interactions and skills, and tracked students' progress. The following two years, I worked at Verona Area High School. I worked in Independent Study classes and one-on-one with students, such as a self-abusive Down's Syndrome/Autistic 19 year old. Currently, I work at Kanapaha Middle School as an Exceptional Student Education Paraprofessional.
1) My experience has given me the opportunity to work with a wide range of 11-21 year old students, who have an equally wide range of educational abilities. I worked one-on-one with students with special needs a ... read more

I enjoy making learning fun for my students because it keeps them entertain and ready to learn. I like to find out what my students like and construct my teaching around that because it becomes easier to understand for them. I feel that incentives are a plus, students like to be rewarded for their great works. As a student it was great to be rewarded so I was always motivated to excel, therefore I want my students to feel motivated to always succeed. I'm here to not only teach your children, but motivate, inspire and mentor as well.
Learning has always been fun to me. I love helping and teaching others, especially kids. My Godmother has been the Director for tutoring services for FCAT for many years so I’ve shadowed her majority of my life. While in high school I tutored her elementary students after school in basic algebra and science. We also tutored middle school studen ... read more

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.

I spent some time in college tutoring other students in subjects such as mathematics and Hebrew. I was asked by the academic support office to tutor because my advisor knew I was a committed student with a strong knowledge of many subjects. I was honored to be thought of in such a way. I did well with my students and they respected me. I was serious about accomplishing the tasks at hand when I met with them and the overall reflection in their grades showed very positive results. I am an excellent choice if you are looking for a tutor who is hard working, intelligent, and devoted to helping his students really grasp the concepts at hand.
I consider myself to be a very good people person. I have a way of relating to the students that I'm helping. As mentioned above, my students respect me and see that I am serious and focused on helping them succeed in their studies. I look forwa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from the University of Central Florida with a B.S. in Elementary Education and Endorsements in Reading and English Speakers of Other Languages. I am currently working towards my M.ed in Reading Education at the University of Florida. During my schooling I gained experience in grades K-6th by working over 200 hours in schools. As part of my program, I also completed two part-time internships in 5th and K and a full-time internship in 3rd grade where all of my students passed the FCAT with a two or higher in math and reading. In addition to school, I was a part of the Best Buddies program and executive board which worked with people who have intellectual disabilities and I feel confident in my ability to meet the needs of others.
I enjoy learning and I strive to teach so that my students enjoy learning as well. I choose to cater my instruction to my individual students so ... read more
