I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparin

I taught in two public high schools in Orange and Osceola Counties in the Central Florida area for 5 years where I earned the Professional Educators Certificate to teach mathematics 6 - 12. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching at a Huntington Learning Center while privately tutoring students from the area middle, high school, and community colleges. My teaching style adapts to the students current level of knowledge. I always model 2 or 3 problems step by step before asking the student to try a problem. A student is comfortable knowing that I have "their backs" and won't let them be frustrated for long. This gives a student confidence to try problems on their own.

As a former member of the United States Air Force, I have always believed in making a difference in the lives of children and young adults. I have earned degrees in Aerospace Maintenance (AS), History(BA) and Management (BA). I spent the last two years as a high school AP Macro-economics teacher. Currently, I am enrolled at the University of Central Florida, where I have completed 30 hours of my MA in History. I am an accomplished researcher, writer, and lecturer who has prepared and delivered high school and college level lessons to classes in excess of 300 students and has had the pleasure of seeing my work published. I want to work with students directly to help them achieve goals I have thoroughly enjoyed instructing young adults, both in the military and in the high school and college settings. Ideally, hands-on learning strategies will be applied to each student, specifically ta

I am currently the Math Coach at a local Middle School. I have been in the educational field for thirteen years as a math teacher. I have taught mathematics on the high school level and the middle school level. I have prepared students for the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) and I have had great sucess helping students achieve passing scores on this test. I have tutored students in basic math up to algebra 1 and geometry. I am a teacher that teaches by showing examples and explaining. I encourage my students to ask questions and I don't mind going over a problem again and again until a student gets the full understanding of what is being asked. I want my students to feel comfortable enough to ask me questions, because that is how they learn.

Tutoring provides the opportunity to teach in a way the traditional classroom rarely can; that precious one on one attention to a particular student's individual learning style, strengths and stumbling blocks. Often, a student's success depends less upon who their tutor is, than simply having a tutor at all. My experience with very academically challenged students has demonstrated that I seem to have a knack for finding the "sweet spot" that turns on the lights. Tutoring lets you know every day that you're making a difference for at least one student. I have taught English/Language Arts for approximately 10 years, from 6th grade level through Freshman College. My strengths are in reading, writing instruction and vocabulary development. I have also tutored for SAT/ACT and FCAT prep. My goal with each student is to determine where their particular hurdles lie and tailor an appropriate

As a professional educator I have taught for over 20+ years at all levels including the college level, I have learned to look for the very best in students and to encourage them to reach their fullest potential. I have earned a bachelor's degree in History with a minor in English and Art, a master's and a doctorate degree in educational leadership specializing in instruction, curriculum and instructional design. I am licensed by the State of Florida in history, English, English for Speakers of Other Languages, Social Studies and Administration. In addition, I have tutored students in English, social studies, SAT and ACT prep and have taught online for the last 7 years. I have dedicated my life to working with children from kindergarten to the college level. It is my belief that all students can learn if provided the tools to do so. The key to their learning is embedded in the way in

As a teacher, I utilize many teaching styles as one style is not universal or may not fit all teachers. Anchored Instruction learning allows students to experience real world dilemmas while using critical thinking to problem solve their situation. Another teaching style and my favorite is Cooperative Learning which involves students in collaborative or team-based tasks such as group problem solving, and paper writing, projects. Cooperative learning is relevant for any discipline. C L is valuable for promoting collaborative effort, reasoning and critical thinking among our students. As a bilingual professional, I am confident in my ability in teaching. As my experience will demonstrate, I have a passion to educate young minds and help them become well-rounded, responsible, and successful individuals.

I like to assess my students and then come up with a plan that uses their strengths and interests to help them achieve their academic and social goals. Before you can teach a child you need to understand their temperament and gain their trust. I believe all children want to learn and can learn when the materials are presented in their learning style. I will use whatever it takes to reach a student; manipulatives, music, movement. My teaching style is very flexible and I will adjust my lesson to suit the student. I worked as a pre-school teacher for 5 1/2 years. During my last year I trained with Dr. Donald Lyman and developed a program for PK through 1st grade,and ran an after school tutoring program. I was so impressed with the results that I went to work for Dr. Lyman for the next nine years. For the first 5 years I worked with students 1-12 grade teaching all core subjects, at

I enjoy working with students and helping them overcome obstacles in their learning. My firm belief is that I can alleviate many of the stressors associated with Mathematics. I am extremely creative and seek to always incorporate critical thinking, while making learning materials as relevant as possible. When challenged and supported especially in small learning environments, students can achieve almost anything. I am inspired by the the "light going off" along with that sense of completion and success that usually accompanies their smiles. Caring professionals are what all students need in order for them to succeed not only as students but as citizens. As a teacher for Orange county public schools I remain passionate about my work with students and their learning. My focus is to always provide a safe, open and exceptional learning environment where all can learn freely and equally. I am

I instructed middle school and high school students for over 12 years before I became certified as a school psychologist in 1998. I have subsequently instructed at the college level since 1998 in the areas of psychology and teacher education. I am a tenured Full Professor. I also continue to complete psychological evaluations for our college's students through our Student Disabilities Service Office. As a psychologist I understand what it takes to transfer information and get it to "stick" in our central nervous system (brain). After understanding some things about the person I would be tutoring I would then develop a plan to present information to them (in a multimodal manner)that would easily associate with their particular "past environment." The material would be usually presented in a highly visual manner augmented with auditory and some hands-on instruction.

My teaching style is very dependent on learner style. I identify the way the student learns best and go from there. Motivation of struggling students is often dependent on the relationship of the student to the teacher, so it is very important that teachers reach out to care and build trust with the learner. I am flexible, positive, and persistent with all my students and try to have a good sense of humor! As a veteran Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) teacher, I have assisted hundreds of struggling students learning to read and write. During the past several years my job has been Support Facilitation, helping SLD students in the general education classroom. As a professional teacher, I can work well with all kinds of students.I have worked with all ethnicities and income levels. Teaching SLD students generally involves diagnostic/prescriptive teaching, which is very similar to the ty
