I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child. I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways.

I have volunteered with the public library and used to spend one day a week reading to children in foster homes. I have spent the past year as a Lead Teacher in Colorado where I was able to have my own classroom, assistant and students. I have worked with several children with special needs and was able to work with several professionals in the best way to teach my students.

I have specialized in middle school and high school tutoring in the areas of; Earth Science, Physical Science, Anatomy, Biology, World History, American History, and Social Studies for five years. I am currently in college for my BA in secondary education for high school history. I have tutored people as young as 8 years of age and as old as 42 years of age. I feel I am greatly qualified for a tutoring position in any of the above mentioned areas. I use several different forms of teaching that cant be placed in to one description. I find it to be more effective if i allow the students to show me something they are pationate about wether it be money, candy, heros, anything. I enjoy not being limited to one form of understanding for a subject and being able to find a new way to teach it.

I am a constructivist. I believe that children learn by building onto their existing knowledge and being able to relate material to existing recalled knowledge. Students thrive in an environment of praise and success. With a background in exceptional student education I am trained to recognise the interest of students and to develop a individual learning plans. Goals are set to be achieved, as success is the ultimate reward. I have been a teacher for a number of years. I have recently been a script and instructional writer for direct instruction and for testing scripts and instructions. I also have consulted in many companies and related training to their entire staff.

I am a patient and caring individual that loves to teach and work with all different kinds of children and on different levels. Children are able to learn anything, but you as the teacher just have to figure out which method works for the individual child. Each and every child learns at a different pace and with different methods.I want to give every opprotunity to help children understand what they do not know and whatever way helps them with that, is the method I will try. I am a person that will not leave a child behind and will do everything in my power to help them along in their education. I graduated high school and college in National Honors Society. My main focus is to major in Elementary Education and minor in English.I have had a lot of experience in writing research papers and am knowledgeable with grammar and punctuation.

I come to you with thirteen years of teaching experience. I am the mother of three. I was raised and attended college right here in Jacksonville, Fl. I graduated from Edward Waters College in 1993.It is my vision and mission to give a student confidence and compassion in reading, writing, and history.All children can benefit! I enjoy working with children. There are several assessment tools that I use in order to see where I would need to begin with any child. One of my favorite forms of assessment is Great Leaps.I have used this program and have seen growth in all subjects with students. Some students who were reading below grade level are now functioning with confidence on grade level.We all are like candles someone sparked our fire and now look how bright our lights our shinning.I would love to be that spark for your child.

After working with children for several years, I believe that every child can learn and do great as long as they are shown patience, compassion, and are rewarded for their good work and improvement. I think that learning should be a fun experience that children should look forward to and that's what I strive for when I tutor. I want the children to have a good time learning because that's the most important part. I will help your child be the best that they can be and will work as hard as I can to do achieve this. I keep reading logs and activity logs for the children to measure their progress and many of them improved greatly as weeks went by when I have tutored. After earning a Bachelor’s degree in a Social Science from the University of Florida, I feel that I have gained a well rounded education in all areas including English, mathematics, biology and natural sciences.I am currently p

My one and only passion has always been children. I strongly believe that every child should be respected and given an equal opportunity for success. In my experience, most children learn best through hands-on learning opportunities. Paper-and-pencil work has its place, however, I find it's important to provide other methods of teaching that cater to different types of learners such as kinesthetic and auditory learners. I also believe that children respond best to adults who have taken the time to connect with and show respect for them. And, most importantly, I believe learning should be enjoyable. As both a tutor and a parent, I take a firm, but fun approach to education. I have both the educational credentials as well as the work experience to be an effective tutor. As a professional, I have experience working in both the education and social work fields. This has given me a u

Patience is, without a doubt, my biggest virtue. Taking art lessons can be intimidating, especially for an unsure student. With my experience, I have been able to identify the measures to instruct my students while keeping them comfortable in a positive environment. My goal for every lesson is to have my students leave confident and with a sense of understanding and resolution. Having grown up with tremendous support, I have been able to pursue my career in art and art education with focus and determination. After receiving my Bachelor's degree in Painting from the University of Florida, I found my way into the Duval County Public School System. Though my position was surplussed only two years later, I was able the witness the great need for an art outlet in children. I focused my attention towards the city parks and recreation system, where I have been teaching home school, after

I am currently enrolled in the graduate engineering program at the University of Florida, in which I plan to graduate in the spring of 2012. I enjoy working with people and I have a strong background in numerical analysis. I have taken the GRE, ACT, and the SAT. Scores were high above the national average for math and at about the average for the written portion. I do have experience in writing research papers and laboratory reports, all in the field of civil engineering. I love seeing people understand something once I explain it to them in a way that they can understand it. I also love working with kids and teenagers because I believe that if we have a positive influence on young people they will grow up to be the leaders that our nation needs. My teaching style is geared at making people think. Students don't learn when they are spoon fed their education but when they are lead in the

My teaching style would be best described as creative and improvisational. Because I work with students from such varied backgrounds, I believe that the best method is one that allows for flexibility and at the same time incorporates lessons from several fields at once. For example, in both my GED and ESOL courses I incorporate music into my lesson plans. I find that music is an excellent avenue to explore contemporary topics that can then lead to essay topics. At the same time, song lyrics are poetry and can be studied as such. As a student in the PhD program at the University of Florida, I have been very involved in academic pursuits. However, this personal endeavor reaches beyond my own experience as a student and extends into my professional work as an educator. I have been working in the field of Adult Education for students pursuing their GED diploma as well as Instructing courses
