"In the second grade my mom sent me to tutor. She was an older women and had once been a prominent local educator. She would sit me at her dining room table and have me do my homework while she watched soap operas in the next room. My experience was stagnant. I hated going to her house and I hated school work. In elementary and middle school, I was a C and D kind of student." "In the eighth grade we moved to a new city and I got a new tutor. It was at an after school program. There was one paid professional and two high school studen

My teaching technique the students differ greatly in their ability to acquire knowledge depending on their previous backgrounds and learning styles. Therefore, it is a very challenging task as a tutor to create a fertile learning environment for students with dissimilar needs,and to be able to achieve not only the targeted course objectives, but also inspire students into becoming independent problem-solvers and good thinkers. So, one practice that has been very useful to me as a tutor is to be able to identify student’s skills and their conceptual understanding levels early on in a particular course. The breadth of my experience has enriched my teaching life, but left me without a luxury some of my colleagues enjoy-the sense, as embarked upon a new challenge,tutoring students, that I know what students will need, and how best to share it with them.

In working with children I have learned that it is important to be excited about what you are teaching. That excitement is contagious and creates a desire to self learn and creates long term study habits. That excitement will be reflected in a students' progress as they gain more knowledge about a certain subject. My goal is to inspire a child to realize what they are able to accomplish through hard work and fun. During my years as an undergraduate student I took on extensive study habits that included working in study groups and tutoring other classmates who were struggling with material. In my undergraduate experience I have acquired the knowledge and skills necessary to comprehend extensive material including math, physics, chemistry, and life sciences. As an honors student I was required to speak in front of large groups of people and explain complex subjects in areas that I had rese

I love teaching and working with all children. During my college days I was actively involved in tutoring accounting, finance and economics to other students and found this to be a very rewarding experience. The most satisfying part of this was when the students would approach me after taking an exam and tell me how much my tutoring had helped them understand the material and how confident they felt. I believe that all children have the ability to learn in differing ways and I adapt my teaching style to best suit their individual needs. I believe that a solid education can make a big difference in an individual’s life and strive to deliver that.

My first work experience began with counseling Severely Emotionally Disturbed children and their families. In this capacity I worked with the schools in order to enable the students to see the value of education and to work through their personal problems in order to be successful in the school setting. I have been a teacher/trainer for 12 years in the Lee County school system. The levels I taught included diverse populations of middle and high school students. Most of my classes were comprised of ESE students and in fact there were several years that I concentrated on Severely Emotionally Disturbed students in a special program. Throughout both of these careers I have been extremely successful in establishing rapport and trust with these children and have been triumphant in motivating this population to care about themselves and their education.

I believe that students of all levels learn from auditory, visual and hands on experience. Each has their own preference and more often than not, uses at least two types of this knowledge. Allowing students the access of these skills will only increase their ability to thrive. Each student will perform according to their own capability using all of these skills. Students that I have viewed tend to also learn from each other in smaller groups with at least one student who excels. Smaller groups tend to bond, listen and retain the material given to them. I have personally participated in games which enhances each student. For example, using words to improve vocabulary in a bingo game or multiplication cards in which the first student in line to answer the question correctly wins or reading a book and asking students questions from that reading will ensure me that they understand
