I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a s

Having taught for the past 15 years has enabled me to hone my teaching style, which is mainly an instructor-centered approach. I believe students need to have a focus to be successful learners. It is the teacher who guides the student to have a focus. To focus a student to a particular task, skill, or strategy the teacher needs to fully explain the task, skill, or strategy. Students don’t retain much information when they are told; they need scaffolds and supports to process information. As teachers we need to...” ask ourselves whether we are explaining or telling.” Students need to be aware of the thinking process of the teacher whom demonstrates and models what is expected (skills and processes) and then acts as a coach or guide to assist the students in applying the knowledge. This style encourages student participation and utilizes various learning styles Since receiving my Elemen

In my opinion good teaching results from years of trial and error and the willingness to learn about teaching from veteran colleagues and from one’s own successes and failures. Teaching is both a science and an art; it is a science in the preparation, pedagogy, methodologies, and assessments; it is an art in the myriad of dynamic interactions that take place in the classroom every day which are affected by the teacher’s actions, class size, student backgrounds, subject area, physical conditions, etc. As in art, part of the attraction to teaching is its inherent complexity that makes it difficult to decompose and describe explicitly, and similar to art - you know the quality when you see it. I have a BA and MS in Mathematics, MS in Environmental Engineering, PhD(abd) in Quantitative Analysis (aka Decision Science or Management Science), one year of graduate coursework in Ed Psychology, an

I am currently a student at St. Petersburg College in pursuit of a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. I have taken many specialized courses as to how students learn as well as observing many hours to discover how students learn. I have also worked in multiple after school programs where I have worked in academic atmospheres to promote student learning. My teaching style is pretty flexible. Depending on how the child learns affects the way I would work with them. I usually use examples and support the child with help if they are learning something they have never seen before. I do not rush a child to learn a subject. We can try different ways of learning and figure out which is easiest for the student to use. My goal is to make sure the student becomes successful in school. I think I can make learning fun and interesting for young children.

In 2005, I graduated from Clearwater Christian College with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education (K-6) as well as an ESOL endorsement. I have three years of full time teaching experience, teaching both first and third grades, as well as one full year of substitute teaching. Last year, I decided to enter the Pinellas county public school system looking for a full time teaching position. However, due to job shortages, I began substituting while I continued looking for a full time position. Looking back, I value my time as a substitute teacher because it has given me an enriched experience in a variety of classroom settings. For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be a teacher. If you were to ask me to describe myself using three words, I would say that I am caring, compassionate, and committed. John Lubbock once said, "If we succeed in giving the love of learning,

It amazes me just how much I enjoy tutoring to all of my students. Each student is different and he or she needs personalized help. My goal is to provide them with what they need to improve their math and/or science skills. My methodology is one that is simple; take is step-by-step. I call it "the method of crab". I originally studies to become an Industrial Engineer. Currently, I am working to get a second degree; a Master’s of Education. That is why I came to the United States. In the last four years, I have tutored students in all levels and areas of mathematics and sciences. I have had experience with students from elementary school through college.

I really love teaching. I also think that anybody can grasp any concept in any subject as long as they are subject to a good teacher that knows how to get down to the student's level. This helps the teacher to realize that the student doesn't know everything that the teacher knows, and therefore, has to realize that he has to break down the material in simple, approachable sections so that the average student can comprehend it easily. I am a University of Tampa graduate with a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and an Associate's Degree in Mathematics. Also, I am fluent in Greek, and perfect with both writing and speaking skills. I've been tutoring classmates all of my life, not professionally, but just to help out. I've also tutored my brothers and sisters in math throughout their high school and college careers. I have tutored in Greek, math, and chemistry, however, math and Greek

I want all children to succeed and I am willing to find any way possible to help them do such a thing.

Students learn best by being lead to discovery. Much of education is developing the ability to not get lost as one learns. I have found that given the time and the data at a proper gradient anyone can learn anything. Finding out what the student already knows and building, with clarity, upon that gives the confidence to learn and the desire to be educated. I taught for 38 years before retiring. I have taught students from age 3 to age 106. Most of my teaching was with students that had learning problems, such as minorities,the underprivleged, the undereducated and the handicapped. I have a wide variety of skills and interests that makes tutoring fun and interesting for the student. My enthusiasm for life and my upbeat style has always been effective with children and adults of every age.
