Painting Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Odessa, FL

Relaxed, but always thinking. Merging ideas and mind mapping to get the form down. I like to use many mediums to help achieve the desired effect. Brain storming - Research - sketching - production - Assessment - Recreate I'm an artist/ educator, who sees no boundaries to where thinking and art forms should go. I enjoy all mediums of expression, each for its own ability to communicate and serve its purpose. Life is about experimenting and mistakes happen, but never let this get you down. I've failed many times and always learn and come back stronger than before.

I have been painting and drawing for six years. I have studied classical art in Florence, Italy at the Florence academy of art. I specialize in portraits, figure, and I also have a good understanding of abstract and cubist art. I have a diverse knowledge of art that allow for a wide variety of students. I fit to what I see the student need and match them with a style of art that fits for them. Some people are incline to realism and other are inclined for the abstract. I provide the tools and the know how to make any project work.

I love teaching and all aspects of teaching. I believe we are all capable of learning our required material, that every one of us just learns in different ways and at a different pace. I am energetic, encouraging, patient, and considerate. I want to see people succeed and I am here for anyone that needs help. I like to use traditional and non-traditional methods until I can figure out the best way the child is going to learn. I want to make an impact in our children's lives to show them learning can be fun, and for most, it is easier than anticipated. As a later graduate (36 years young), I consider myself to be driven, goal-oriented, and motivated. I have worn a lot of hats throughout my career and I have trained or taught many people across all age groups. I've earned my BA in History and am currently working on my MA in American History.

In addition to my hands on experience copying the art work of the major artists of past and present, I was recently a docent at the Leepa-Rattner Museum located in Tarpon Springs for a period of 18 months. In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education. For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were

I enjoy working with children. I especially enjoy teaching children in grades K-3. I believe children are sponges who have the ability to learn and comprehend material if given the opportunity. Every child should be able to learn at their own pace, taking into consideration their learning styles (visual, auditory,or tactile). Every child deserves an education. I am currently a nursing student who will graduate in December 2010. However, I've earned a total of 73 credits through the nursing program and other college courses. I was a substitute teacher for six months for grades K-5 in the Pasco County School District.

As a college graduate with a degree in Journalsim, I spent many years writing for both print and news radio. I have excellent writing and grammar skills. I have taught Business Writing courses to groups of employees from many nationalities who need to understand the English grammar rules and proper sentence structure, etc. Most were not native English speakers. I also volunteered in Schwarzkopf elementary school helping children with learning disabilities learn to read. I have a lot of experience with children at that school since I was a volunteer there the entire time my daughter attended. Many children have short attention spans. It's important to keep them engaged. When reading, I challenge their retention skills in a fun way and encourage them to elaborate on the story. This breaks up the task and gives me feedback I need to guage how they are doing. Are retaining the informa

I have been teaching in the public school system for 19 years, primarily with 3rd-5th graders. I have a passion for teaching both reading and writing, but I am certified to teach all subject areas: first through fifth grades. In addition to teaching in the public school system, I have done outside tutoring and for numerous years, I have also tutored in an after school program at my school. I am priviledged to have remained at the same school for seventeen years and feel very fortunate to have previous students return to visit and share their success stories with me every year. I do believe that my passion for teaching both reading and writing allows for my students to feel successful in both of those areas. My test scores over the years prove that I am more than capable of assisting students to reach their goals and surpass them. I never accept anything less than their

As an educator that has taught in both the private and the public schools systems for the last 19 years, I have learned a great deal.....the child must always come first! My degrees are in Early Childhood and Elementary Education with most of my career spent in Kindergarten and First grade. I have tutored students of all ages, and have even had requested to lower my rates to include a group looking to pass their high school entrance exams and work as a group. I am very patient, organized, and creative and use these characteristics to meet the needs of all my students.I am the tutor that is sought out in March, so the student will have one of the few spots that open up each year. I look forward to working with you and your child. Although I believe the FCAT is a test that demands respect, I do not teach to the FCAT.

I believe that every person AND child should always be told what they are doing WELL as well as what they need to improve on. I make sure never to make the child feel like they did something bad by answering something wrong but to use that as a tool and break it down and simplify it to them so they can relate to it and therefore they will stand a better chance of getting it right in the future by being able to look at it as a common sense thing rather than something they had to memorize. Kids are sponges and with the right tools and patience, they can excel in anything. I am a very motivated, high energy, enthusiastic teacher with many years experience as a special olympics volunteer and professional figure skating instructor. I have experience with children of all ages and disabilities. I teach arts and crafts to the local children in my area and I am a published jewelry artist in qu
