Get to know me and let's discuss your needs.
I have worked with the following populations throughout the many years of professional experience: mental health patients - (children & adults), special needs, developmentally disabled, people with learning disabilities, those with ADD/ADHD, Children, Adolescents, and Adults of varying ages and skill sets. I know some sign language so I am able to communicate with others who have little to no hearing. I have worked within the schools and have experience aiding students. I am very flexible and willing to adjust for the needs of the student and meet them where they are in the learning process.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is very comforting, fun, and yields results. I know with nurture, time, patience, resources, and love ALL children can learn. I am an advocate of allowing children to try and work independently. I feel giving a child that confidence to allow them to make mistakes and be able to correct themselves is powerful. Being an ESE teacher has allowed me to differentiate my students in learning groups that will allow them to learn from each other and to grow as great scholars. They laugh, discuss, and learn together. My teaching style is a warm, family like environment. I love what I do!
A graduate of Florida State University, I initially started out teaching children and their parents about good eating habits at the Health Dept. I wanted to partake in the school system, so I began teaching as a Title 1 teacher. I was teaching small groups of individuals that needed so ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is very positive and encouraging. Students need to feel safe to make mistakes and learn from them. Students' achievements should be recognized. Children learn through active participation with their environment. I plan activities that provide students with the experiences needed to build on their existing skills. These activities are geared toward giving children the opportunities for growth and to feel good about themselves while engaged in learning.
I earned a master's degree in Early Childhood Education K-3 at Florida State University. I taught prekindergarten (ESE), kindergarten, second grade, and remedial reading for first through fifth grade. I volunteered as a reading tutor while working at the Department of Education. I have taken graduate courses in educational measurement and assessment. I also have professional experience as an exam developer f ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching for the last 8 years. I have a Bachelors of Science Degree from Greensboro College in North Carolina. I am Florida certified in Exceptional Student Education and Middle Grades Integrated curriculum. I am currently teaching Science, Math, Life Skills and Social Personal Skills. I have a great deal of teaching children who have difficulties grasping subject matter. I utilize proven research based protocols to ensure that my students are getting a quality education.
I am a firm believer in that every child can succeed in whatever they strive for if they are given proper instruction. Even difficult learners can succeed if the proper teaching methods are employed. Different students have different stimuli that they respond to. There is no one cookie cutter mold for teaching. After all, each student is an individual and responds in their own way.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style has foundations in the Socratic seminar, where class discussions lead students to form their own understanding of the materials/subjects at hand. As students only retain 5% of what is spoken in lectures, I encourage students to follow a model of inquiry and responsibility for their own work. I support studying and reading at home in order to excel on tests, and offer individual assistance to each student. I also insist that parents take a strong leadership role in the education of their children, so that they may develop a yearning for information and knowledge. Lastly, I use the daily newspaper as reading material as well as topics for discussion and vocabulary acquisition. My goal is to help students become critical thinkers who take responsibility for their education.
Besides teaching language arts for the last four years in North Carolina, I have a lifelong i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a licensed teacher and have a degree in English Education. My real-life experience has indoctrinated: strong organizational skills, teamwork and independent thinking. I have held several positions of responsibility and am self-motivated and self-directed.
My philosophy of education focuses on student-centered learning. When students learn to be accountable for their own behavior and learning, they become practiced in valuable life-skills and become better prepared for the future. Further, I believe student-centered learning to be most effective, because students relish the idea of being entrusted to make their own decisions.

I believe that every child can succeed with strategies to support their learning. My experience with students who do not know English and children who have disabilities, has really given me the opportunity to learn strategies to help all types of children learn. I have a proven record of helping struggling students to raise their FCAT scores. My number one priority when tutoring for the past ten years has been to motivate and get children interested in school. Many students need a little help with organizational skills, and after that, I show them how much fun learning can be! After transferring from the classroom to the State, I really miss working with kids, and the satisfaction of seeing a student's face when they really “get it.”
I have been passionate about teaching for as long as I can remember. I earned both my Bachelor and Master degrees in the field of Education, plus I am ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children. I am a very patient person and I understand that children learn in different ways through various techniques. I feel that as a tutor I have to have a good understanding of the philosophy of education. Learning to children needs to be taught in interesting ways because a lot of children learn through interesting teachings, and or surroundings. At the end of my teaching I want the child to remember me and the techniques that I have taught them to learn and want to go throughout their life eager to learn new things. I want my students to be successful and proud of themselves.
As graduating with a degree in the Psychology field I have come to understand children better. I understand that all children can learn, but there are different techniques in teaching that a teacher may have to use from child to child. Being a tutor you get to understand each chi ... read more

I actually have always taught others, even as a child, my peers came to me to learn new things because of my patience and persistence to help them learn. So, it was easy to study education in college. There my focus shifted to the more difficult children and adults to teach that had learning disabilities. Meeting the students where they are and accessing their needs is the place to start and then providing an environment that they will thrive in. I have always been a very intuitive and creative teacher - always loving children of all ages.
When at the U. of South Florida, in order to receive a degree in Special Education we were also required to meet all criteria for a degree in Elementary Education. Therefor, I graduated with a double degree and a minor in Art education. The majority of my teaching experience was in the field from Educable retarded to the last years at our state i ... read more

I really enjoy teaching and working with students and continue to develop new ways to make learning fun and engaging. Focusing on each student independently, I differentiate instruction based on each individual's learning style. I value learning in a way that displays passion and a serious interest in every subject I teach. I believe in a fun and relaxed approach to learning, but maintain a focus and discipline I feel is required to achieve academic success.
I have been working with youth for over ten years. As a private music instructor and substitute teacher I have had the opportunity to work with students K-12 with a wide array of abilities. During the school year of 2009-2010 I was a para-professional in a Kindergarten PDD class (pervasive development disorder/autism) where I helped administer IEP directed lessons for 8 children on the spectrum.
