Have worked with several students and teachers in preparation for both the Mass. and Fl. certification exams--General Knowledge and English (content and pedagogy). I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent through her citizenship exam practice. Another was when I prepped a friend for a lifeguard exam that she had failed twice. Seeing my students of all ages succeed is a joy. My motto is if at all possible, I want to ma

Although I believe the FCAT is a test that demands respect, I do not teach to the FCAT. My instruction is differentiated for each child and if they are able to give me more, I push them to their ability. My goal for my students is to teach to the highest level they excel in using a variety of methods........I want my students to be well-rounded in their abilities, not just able to pass a test. When I work with your child, they will look word to seeing me and I will look forward to watching and helping them grow. The best part of all is that their skills all build on one another and the difficulty to tackle new concepts is not as threatening to them because I leave them with tools in hand. I look forward to making a difference! 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

I love teaching and after twenty years experience in education, still am at it! I believe in differentiated instruction, so I modify assignments and assessments to meet the learning needs of each student. I am a very patient, enthusiastic and fun teacher. I believe in appealing to students' interests, since we learn best when we are motivated by personal investment in the topic. I try to appeal to students' multiple intelligences, bringing in art and music to the learning process. I have almost 10 years working as an elementary classroom teacher, elementary reading specialist, middle school reading specialist, and middle school English teacher. In addition, I have worked in educational assessment for state departments of education and for testing corporations. Moreover, I have worked as a professor of teacher education as of college composition. Currently I work as an adjunct reading pr

Technology is part of our daily life, our student are technology oriented; I use technology in my classroom to help them relate to the subject. Since the beginning of my career I have been integrating different subject to my classroom in order for them to see the relationship between a language and their surroundings. When I taught adults I did the same, this time the subjects changed in order to help them loose the fear of learning another language I have been a certified and committed teacher for the past 10 years. I started my career in the subject I studied in 1999. In 2002 I had the opportunity to work at a Technical institute where I taught:English,Spanish,Microsoft Office Programs,Accounting (Basic procedures),Computer Repair For the past 2 years I have been an English Teacher at the International Baseball Academy (for the grades 7th –12th ) in this institution I had the

I discovered my love of teaching when I started volunteering as a reading tutor and youth group leader. I am most effective when I work with students in a one-on-one or small group setting, which allows me to focus on individual students’ strengths and challenges. I customize my approach with each student’s particular learning style in mind. My goal is that students understand and learn to think critically and independently, not simply memorize. When I see a child’s eyes light up with understanding and smile at accomplishment, I know I have succeeded in making a difference. While completing my B.A. in Management at Eckerd, I learned how to write effectively and enhanced my understanding of grammar, mathematics, history, social studies and economics. As a volunteer tutor at a public school and at my church, I began to develop my teaching skills. These rewarding experiences motivated

I always consider for motto, "If my students can't achieve my expectations, it's my teaching approach to blame not them!" Because I believe teaching is an invitation for students to discover the vast knowledge and inspiration of a teacher. Therefore, it's up to that instructor to sell convincingly his or her product to the pupils with great pleasure and patience. I am firmly convince that all children can achieve the maximum of a classrom expectations if all, the methods, environment, and management, and dynamism are present. Finally great teachers can always be defined not by the amount of their experiences but by the difference they made in their student' lives.

As a graduate of the University of Florida, I earned a BS degree in Education and Business. While interning at Gainesville High School I learned that understanding teen-agers was the key to teaching. Students are sometimes confused that education and goal setting are much more important than social satisfaction/needs. Key here is to listen, learn and be patient with the student to grab their needs and utilize their strenths. Thank you. When you figure out the motivational and emotional needs of a child, teaching becomes easier but still a challenge. When a student can grasp the basics/core of a subject and really absorb this beginning information, we can move forward using their abilities of discovery regarding the subject. I look forward to assisting in the future of their educational development. Thank you.

I have always enjoyed allowing students to have a variety of learning methods presented to them. I have utilized group projects, individual projects. Class room activities such as mock trials and guest speakers from areas peprtinant to our class room topic. I utilize the school district reuired texts for a foundation or break away point to facilitae an expantion with special interest topics and projects. It is my objective to touch upon the skills, knowledge and learning style of each student. I have found my personal joy comes from making a difference in each student's life. I earned my BS in Education degree in 1970 but chose to enter the field of law enforcement. I remained the the field of law enforcement for 10 years and then began teaching. The skills and experiences in law enforcement have given be a strong base to draw upon for teaching Civics and History. I taught American histo
