I am a first year student at Stetson University. I skipped fifth grade, which is the reason I graduated early. I completed all four years of high school with A's, and only about 2-3 B's. My professional subject area is Mathematics. I took Advanced Placement Calculus 1 in my senior year, receiving a "Most Outstanding" award. I also have experience in areas such as Reading, Writing, English, and also projects. My freshman and sophomore year, I won first place in my school science fair, and my sophomore year also won in the district science fair. My high school had an AVID(Advance Via Individual Determination) program in which I helped as a tutor during school hours and also after school. If one needs help with science fair projects, research projects, presentations, etc, I am available. I have learned a lot of techniques in those areas in order for the result to be exceptional and eye catc

"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 student assistants. The professional Mr. Litzel was amazing. When it came to my homework he would explain the logic and methodology behind the questions. If I still had issues, he always found a way to help me grasp the concepts. Over the course of a few months I went from being a C and D student to an A and B student. In high school I took honors classes and g

I like to make teaching fun! If a student is bored they aren't going to be putting 100% into their work. I also use a positive reward system and celebrate all achievement. Even if it is minor. I have been working with kids of all ages for a long time. I love to see them learn and grow. That moment when they "get" something is magical! I spent the 2011-2012 school year teaching at a title 1 school in Collier County and have grown exponentially from it! I had several students in my class who needed special help, and half of my class were English language learners. These students have helped me to strengthen my skills and adapt to different student's styles.

I strongly believe that every child can learn if given the right amount of time, instruction, motivation, and attention. I also believe that most students learn and actually retain information better by “doing.” I emphasize hands-on learning in my classroom. Students need to be able to be active participants in their learning. I incorporate the 21st century skills: work well with others, make thoughtful decisions, take initiative, solve complex problems, self-manage, communicate effectively, and use technology appropriately; into my classroom and teaching style. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 1996. I began my teaching career in Monticello, Florida teaching 1st grade. I taught 1st grade for four years. Later I moved back to my hometown, Okeechobee, Florida, and began teaching 5th grade. I have been teaching 5th grade for the past eight years. I have bee

I love teaching and working with youth and children.  I am patient with students and teach in a way that empowers the student to find the answers for himself/herself.  I love when my students have "aha" moments and really begin to understand the topic of study.  I believe education is a critical component to success in life and I am available to help your child reach his/her full potential by providing the best education possible.  I also believe learning should be fun and interesting and do my best to make this a reality, regardless of the topic. Both my undergraduate and graduate degrees required a high level of excellence in writing papers.  I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and essays on various topics.  In addition, I have tutored several youth and children in math, history, and English. Many of these youth came from Korea and had to overcome

I earned my Bachelors degree in Oregon and starting substituting there on my way to a permanent position. In Oregon, you must have a teaching certificate to sub. By the time my first year ended, they had passed a tax reform bill and were actually laying teachers off. I came to Florida in hopes of getting a teaching position, but found the attitudes on education much different and chose to go another route. I still substitute regularly. I also worked as a Teaching Assistant for a First grade classroom. I also tutored for a national franchize for one year until someone else took over the business. I tutored mostly reading and other elementary subjects. I plan to teach English to Spanish speaking students and adults next year and would like more experience with teaching adults. I like to teach with a hands on learning method. I believe both children and adults learn better when they can see
