I have been described by students as a high energy teacher. I like to use my sense of humor to help students to understand the material. It is my goal to assist students in truly understanding material and I always operate on the higher ends of Bloom's taxonomy of learning that includes helping students to learn to synthesize, evaluate and internalize the material that I teach. I am an innovative person who likes the interaction of thoughts between myself and the students. I have been a teacher for approximately 20 years. I earned my bachelor's degree in economics from Brooklyn college in 1983 and was certified to teach high school social studies in 1985-1986 at the University of S. Florida.

My teaching style requires the student to utilize their own opinions and brainpower. I have learned that the best way to really understand something is to figure it out for yourself. As a teacher/tutor, I feel it is important to guide the student to figure out the solution, rather than show them how to do everything step by step. I am also very easy to talk to and I make myself open and available to my students. I can read people very well, and I know when to slow down, and when to move on. I think one of the most important qualities a tutor can have is to be able to explain how the same thing works in more than one way. Every student learns differently, and while one student might understand how to do a math problem by simply looking at the equations, another student might understand better with diagrams. I have the ability to reiterate a solution through many vectors. After finishing m

My career as an attorney has afforded me many opportunities to instruct people from various educational backgrounds on many complicated subjects that have affected their lives. I am extremely patient and model my instructional method to fit the cognitive mindset of the person I am teaching. Having taken bar examinations in three states, I can teach your child to take tests to the best of their ability, and to use the preparation methods to develop skills that will cross over into other subjects and other aspects of their lives. My methodology is to provide students with the personal guidance they need in order to get back on track to reach their goals. I have been a practicing attorney for 20 years and have recently relocated to FL, seeking a career in teaching. I am eligible for a FL teaching certificate in Physics for grade levels 6-12.

I spent 7 years as a college professor, middle school Spanish, and one year as program director of the criminal justice and paralegal studies at a 'for-profit' institution. I spent most of my working career teaching young people in very diverse environments and people of many cultures. I spent 3 years as a detective investigating juvenile crime and part of the investigation was the rehabilitation involved rather than the prosecution of those cases. I believe I understand young people considering that I have five children of my own. I believe that the combination of my education and diverse background in the work force, I can be an asset to your company. I have strong communication skills, powerpoint presentations, and writing skills. I enjoy teaching. It has become a passion because of the self-rewarding results.

Being a business student required many hours of research and writing. As I went further and further into my major it became increasingly important that my information was both current and accurate. This made me focus on being able to find, translate, and relate multiple pieces of information into a context that was understandable to both students and faculty. This gave me experience in speaking and writing to both those who knew a specific subject extensively, and those being introduced to a subject for the first time in a way that they could be understandable to all. I have worked in multiple group setting as well as one on one where I was able to translate ideas into words or writing that made a picture more complete or understandable. I love teaching all age groups of children. I know that every child is capable of not only learning a subject, but being successful at understanding and
