A Little Bit About Me...

Upon graduation with a degree in Business Management, I worked various jobs and decided that I wanted to become a teacher. After applying to become a substitute teacher here in Ohio, I have enjoyed working in the schools these last several months. It has been a learning experience and has driven my desire higher to help children want to learn. I have realized that through my broad program of Business Management I know many different areas that I can relate to in any grade level.
When I substitute teach, there is not always a need to have to teach something but I am very happy when that times comes. I have had the opportunity to teach anywhere from 6th grade students learning about adverbs to high school students learning about trigonometric functions. Luckily, I have retained my knowledge in most areas and can help relate my experiences to the kids. I try to allow the whole g ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating Florida International University in 1987 with a bachelor degree in international relations, I attended the University of Idaho College of Law, graduating in 1990. My dream was to combine my education in a way that would help others. It took years of learning my craft (tax law and accounting) to realize that dream. I served on the board of two non-profit organizations, working with at-risk children. My work was behind the curtain; completing the rigorous IRS tax exempt application, preparing the necessary state and federal tax returns required to keep both organizations in business. What means the most to me is the people I meet, the knowledge shared, and knowing that I make a difference in the lives of others.
My teaching style is different with each child. Some need more encouragement that others, more supervision, while others do better with an overv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college senior, I have accumulated countless hours towards tutoring and mentoring those in need. Whether it's Pre-K, Elementary, Junior High, High School and College students, I spend a great part of my life not just accomplishing goals, but taking the time to extend a hand and bringing those once behind me to the forefront. I have grown to learn that the right amount of disciplne and nurturing go further than a full dose of either. The subjects I mostly excel in are mathematics, psychology, English, reading, and the Arts. I feel that the well-rounded education that I have received makes me versatile in the educational system as a multi-threat to the decline in graduation rates.
I find great joy in watching a child progress in their education. All children are capable of learning at their own pace, and through repetition. Your child will find success and ease in their academic ... read more

Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited.
I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.

Students need multiple options for taking in information and making sense of ideas.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Spurce Creek High School in Port Orange Florida in 2003 with a high school diploma and an IB diploma. I continued to college and in three years earned a Bachelors Degree in Mathematics at Stetson University in Deland Florida. I just recently finished law school at Barry University School of Law in Orlando and earned a Juris Doctor degree. I continued and I passed the Florida Bar exam and was sworn into the bar on September 24, 2010. I have assisted many students over my years in understanding material they themselves did not understand. I am hoping to share my extensive educational knowledge and study habits with others.
I like to believe that anyone can learn and understand anything. All it takes is a good teacher and effort. I like to work through a similar problem to the one the student is having a hard time with. Once he or she understands the similar problem, ... read more

In addition to a B.A. in History and an M.A. in Legal studies, I completed (with an A for all) the 21 credit hours in education courses required to teach secondary education in Maryland. I then earned scores in the above-average range on all three sections of PRAXIS I: Academic Skills Assessments and recently passed the PRAXIS Social Studies Content Knowledge.
Although my teaching experience has not been in a formal classroom, I have taught gymnastics to children and adult computer skills, sliding-seat rowing, calisthenics, and swing dancing. I am exceptionally conscientious, caring, and energetic and feel that my education, empathy, and desire to help others make me an excellent candidate for tutoring. I believe I would be a tremendous asset to your staff and am anxious to utilize the teaching skills I have learned to make a difference in students’ education.

I believe that all students can learn. It's just a matter of finding the instructional style that matches their learning style. I am a firm believer in the theory of multiple intelligences, developed by Dr. Howard Gardner and adapted to the education field by Thomas Armstrong. It's not how smart you are, but how are you smart! To me there is nothing better than seeing the lightbulb go on in students' eyes when they "get it." My job as a teacher is to figure out how to bring each individual student to that point and guide all of them to reach their fullest potential.
I have 19 years experience as a high school teacher. In that time, I have taught several different English classes and reading. I have been a department chairperson, a reading coach, and have taught a variety of graduate level education courses to teachers as well. I was honored as Wentzville High School teacher ... read more

I believe that each person is an individual and as such needs personalized help. Not everyone learns as the same rate,but given time and the proper reinforcement will learn. Students much be allowed to have a certain freedom to choose likes and strengths as well as weaknesses. We all have them! If the teacher can show the relevance to a student's life then the student will understand the "why" for learning. One on one as well as equal treatment will bring results. Some days you learn a lot and other days it just takes time.
I taught 7 years at the elementary level. My grades were 4,5,and 6 all subjects. I especially liked teaching English as I feel that if you can read you can understand anything. I taught 19 years for Volusia County. I taught Remedial English,Archeology, Florida History, Bookkeeping, and World History. I still am in touch with several of my ex students. I ... read more

During my 13 years in the Navy, I have always excelled in my academics and I welcomed the opportunity to serve as a mentor to my peers as well as subordinates. I have been active in every school that my children have attended and currently work as a tutor occasionally for my sons 8th grade AVID class (math & science) at Galaxy Middle School, Deltona, FL.

I also have volunteered at my local church for 3 years and am active in the childrens ministry, where I serve as a mentor and role model.

Having studied the language, literature, history, and archaeology of ancient Greece for my degree, I chose to go to Greece to live and work. For ten years, I taught English at many levels, my students being of different ages and having various skill and test requirements. I discovered in myself a vocation to teach and a talent in making challenging material intelligible and even a pleasure to learn. Specifically, I taught grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, composition, and listening and conversational skills. I have also read fairly widely, indulging my curiosity in artistic, philosophical, political and economic areas, all of which inform my presentation of and guidance through textbook material.
I believe teaching to be a matter of enablement. The student's immediate goal is to absorb and understand the material, and the teacher's is to make this understanding happe ... read more

Because I believe each student's learning style is different, I adapt my teaching style to coincide with the learner. I am a very versatile teacher, who approaches each student in a way that encourages them to interact, and learn hands on. I believe that each child should be encouraged to face thier challenges, and that they should embrace the learning experience. Overall, I make my classroom a fun place, where learning is engaging and interactive.
In addition to my BS and AS degree, I hold 9 credit hours of post-graduate coursework in Elementary Education. My professional credits include recruiting for a top level pharmaceutical firm, as well as a credit card bank. I have also worked as a substitute teacher in elementary schools for grades K through 5.

I love the learning process and the excitement of success. I believe that not all students learn the same way and am commited to finding the connection that will make the child that I tutor successful. I live for the "ah ha" moment when we both realize that the information has been learned and retained.
I earned my Bachelors of Arts degree while working full time. I also continued to pursue employment that enabled me to work on my own. I have tutored not only my child to become an A/B student but also worked with another student, voluntarily, who was struggling in school. In today's work environment whether you strive to go to college or become a tradesperson your ability to learn is paramount. Having a tutor or coach to assist the student can be a rewarding experience for the student as well as the teacher.
