I believe that every student deserves their own personal attention. Every individual has their own learning style and relates to their teacher differently than anyone else. I find my productivity and enjoyment only comes from accomodating to each students personalities, goals, and learning style.

I have also spent 4 years analyzing these effects and comparing them to the amount of children who move on to have violent and abnormal outburts of anger and rage.

The fears, doubts and anxieties that all students must deal with on an ongoing basis is something I am very familiar with both from a student standpoint as well as an academic advisor. To guide and to inspire the student to become an active, self-monitoring and independent learner is only half the battle, yet it is one of my skills. Without the ability to communicate genuine love and concern teaching becomes obsolete. My experience comes from the real world. I am bilingual and I have over 12 years experience as an academic advisor at NYU and Columbia University. I also bring 10 years of corporate business experience. In this time I have tutored countless students and co-workers from all walks of life in Spanish, English as a second language, literature, reading, research, writing papers, proofreading, editing, grammar, basic math and study skills. I have helped them deal with fears, d

I have two younger brothers, ages 14 and 15, who I feel have made me that great tutor that I am today. Along with the assistance and support of my mother, we have pushed them to learn at a young age, and more often that not I grew up assisting them from their multiplication tables to beginner calculus. I feel that with constructive support and encouraging educators ANY student can flourish. I am very patient, try to convey concepts in simple step by step fashion, almost how I process it in my mind. I really strive to make a difference in all the young ones who I come across in my life. As a mechanical engineering graduate at USF, I have taken a wide variety of classes in a wide variety of fields that have broadened my horizon.

And i believe practice is repeatation until you make it right the Suzuki method I prepare to teach.

I have taken many science classes as I am now awaiting acceptance to University of Florida's Dental School. I am also a certified personal trainer so I am very familiar with anatomy.

My teaching style is one that is more interactive than instructional. I continue to be amazed while I observe the thought process and problem solving techniques, of the many different and varying individuals and personalities. I am at my best in one on one situations, where I can troubleshoot and identify learning challenges in their early stages. I believe we retain 30% of what we hear and 50% of what we do. The remainder is acquired through repetition, which is a byproduct of a passion waiting to be discovered. My experiences involve the teaching and performance of music education. I am a skilled performer on the trombone, keyboards, drums and percussion. I am qualified to teach brass instruments at levels k-12 and stringed instruments at k-5.

I find teaching to be an enriching field that allows me the creativity and flexibility to allow necessary adjustments to the core curriculum based on the student or group of students learning abilities and styles. Every student has a different strength in which they are able to learn, and I believe as a teacher, it is important to recognizes these differences and be able to adjust or adapt to change in a short notice. The end result of an effective lesson plan can bring great reward in terms of a student’s success. As a teacher, I believe that the success of the student should always be the primary focus in the work of an educator, no matter what learning level or background the student has. In a little under two years, I have spent my teaching experience abroad, splitting time between contract work in South Korea and Costa Rica as an English Language Instructor of both Elementary and Ad
