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. I have taught a wide variety of subjects including: American and World History, law studies, pyschology, economics, humanities and also a course in screenwriting at the University of S. Florida

I have worked at a community college for over 8 years and I enjoyed going to work each and every day. I loved being with my students and sharing my expertise and work experiences. Sometimes a student would, in their words, ask a “stupid question”. I, of course, say there is no such thing as a stupid question and I would never mind repeating any information again to assist the learning experience. Teaching to me was never boring! I am a very patient teacher and accomplished artist. I possess excellent organizational and management abilities, am extremely computer literate (IBM & MAC) and I recently (1999) received my Vocational Teaching Credentials, in Multimedia from California State University, Long Beach. I am extremely competent in creating and using multimedia presentation tools in the learning environment. I taught PowerPoint and Macromedia Director for 8 years and co-created

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

As an undergraduate, I worked as a volunteer tutor in the Robles Park/Seminole Heights area for two years. I tutored kids in math, science, English, and social sciences. I also tought sunday school in my church where I was involved in designing the curriculum and planning lessons. I am also an experienced substitute teacher. I've been recently certified to teach social science's in grades 6-12 by the Florida Department of Education. My teaching style varies depending on who I am teaching and what I am teaching. The consistent skills I use in teaching are getting people to develop and use different skills, particularly learning material and being able to apply it to life, ensuring people, and learning analytical (problem solving) skills. My goals include not only teaching material and skills that will help students, but truly making a profound difference in their lives.

I am a young motivated college student looking to make a difference in the lives of other students. I come from an underprivileged background and I understand what the importance a tutor can have in the life of a child. I have 5 years of tutoring experience. I served as a volunteer tutor during my high school years and I am currently employed as an AVID tutor for the School District of Hillsborough County. I am fluent in Spanish and I am currently majoring in Engineering with a Pre-Medical concentration. I also have vast experience with the language arts and I consider that my strong subject. I am comfortable tutoring almost anything from the elementary school level on up to the high school level. I really enjoy working with children, their smiles and enthusiasm seem to always make my day. I love to be a good facilitator to your child's success and I believe active questioning can i

As a student at the University of South Florida I had a minor in Leadership studies. With this minor I was able to take course that allowed me to work in the community with less fortunate kids. I volunteered for a semester as a tutorer at Elemenatry School. I help the kids inccrease their reading levels. I believe that all kids learn differently. Some may like things to be explained visually while other may perfer them verbally. So my approach is to use a variety of techniques in order to reach the different students. I believe that games are a good way to teach kids and to incorperate competition so that kids will learn to strive for the best and to be the best. I know that I can make learning educational and fun so that kids will learn.

I have not had any formal experience teaching however I did take two semesters of early childhood education in college as well as two semesters of internship in elementary schools. I have tutored several students including my younger brother and his classmates. I feel that my broad education and personal experience as well as my personality encourages as well as inspires the children I have tutored. I tutored students in English, Algebra and Geometry. I love interacting with children. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn any subject given the approprate attention and attitude. The greatest pleasure for me is seeing the faces of these children when they understand something that they were having difficulty with. My overall goal and objective is to just to help and if I can reach one child I would consider that a success.

I have spent my life in the public service arena. I have assisted children, youthful adults and families to improve their lives while working in social services. I have worked with children as a tutor or volunteer in church or other community affairs. I volunteer my services as a Family Mediator and juvenile detention worker.I believe that children and families today face one of the greatest challenges ever with the failing economy, serious health threats, unemployment, and a failing education system due to lack of funding and resources. In some small way, I believe in working with children within my family and community I am contributing to the improvement of the lives of my fellow Americans and in a Country that I love. I am a great advocate of education and have spent a lifetime trying to obtain all the education and training I can. I have also assisted and encouraged others to do

My style is to stay flexible and to be creative in seeking methods that will work best for a given child. Ways must be be found to get the child excited by learning, see how learning can be fun and how it can help them in their lives. Perhaps the most important thing is to get them to take satisfaction in meeting their learning objectives in a concrete way. This is best done by setting progress points and goals that are achievable and satisfying to the student. These are then monitored and measured and teaching geared to progress and shortfalls appropriately. My 1st teaching experience was as a young Viet Nam veteran teaching cannon gunnery at Ft. Carson Co. Other experience is 1 year at U of South Fl. Evening Division. I also taught 2 years at Academie Da Vinci in Dunedin Grades 1-6 which included language arts, computer science and physical education. In addition I taught 1 year

My belief is that everyone of us is blessed with a talent, a skill. My talent has been teaching. My teaching style has been one of asking many questions and having the students participate in their educational experience. I feel the more a student puts forth, the more they will learn. I treasure an inquisitive mind; a young person who looks for a challenge. In order to develop this "Socrates" style many hours are devoted to preparation. I was an average student in high school, and am therefore able to identify the needs of young people as they struggle to master certain subject areas. I have raised three children who have pursued careers in the field of education, and I have a strong background in both business and education. Additional coaching experience, as well as real-life situations, have helped me to understand and encourage students to achieve excellence in both the classroom an
