Teacher Cert Exams Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pinellas Park, FL

Have worked with several students and teachers in preparation for both the Mass. and Fl. certification exams--General Knowledge and English (content and pedagogy). After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as well

I am an USF graduate, GO BULLS. I have 6 years as a substitute teacher with Pinellas County Schools in math, science, social studies, language arts and a few other subjects. I have tutored in Math and Science free of charge. I like helping people if I can. I work with any student that is welling to put some effort into learning. The students work for improvement and I work for different avenues of presentation. Math learning takes time and memory skills, without good practice techniques the material studied will just be lost in memory. The key to success is knowing what to learn and how to learn it.

As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In addition, I taught Drama, Speech, Creative Writing, Script Writing and Math at local Cooperative Groups in the state of Florida. The growth that each student achieves is my best reward. I love learning and love to pass that on. In tutoring, I first work at instilling confidence and apply small victories to achieve that goal. I find the learning style of the student and modify the information in ways that can make them more successful. I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of yo

Kids respond positively to my teaching style. I am motivating and understanding about their needs while striving to make them feel at ease. I have found that a child learns better when he/she feels a teacher is giving that student his/her total attention. Students do not want to compete with other forces. While classroom instruction is very fulfilling my heart really lies with one-on-one instruction. As a teaching professional with a diverse background I bring a breadth of experience to all levels of teaching. I have been tutoring for 10 years and specializing in one-on-one instruction. I currently teach English at the college level, but I tutor privately in a variety of subjects. Two bachelor degrees, in English and Communications, a Masters in English, plus 30 graduate hours in Education give me a strong foundation for instructing.

I find teaching to be an enriching field that allows me the creativity and flexibility to allow necessary adjustments to the core curriculum based on the student or group of students learning abilities and styles. Every student has a different strength in which they are able to learn, and I believe as a teacher, it is important to recognizes these differences and be able to adjust or adapt to change in a short notice. The end result of an effective lesson plan can bring great reward in terms of a student’s success. As a teacher, I believe that the success of the student should always be the primary focus in the work of an educator, no matter what learning level or background the student has. In a little under two years, I have spent my teaching experience abroad, splitting time between contract work in South Korea and Costa Rica as an English Language Instructor of both Elementary and Ad

Teaching is one of my biggest passions. My student teaching experience in a second grade classroom was the most memorable experience I had during my years in college. I believe that all children have different ways of learning and I feel that I can meet the needs of every child. Since all children learn differently, I feel that I have to adjust my lessons according to their needs. Examples of effective teaching methods that I enjoy using are: teaching by example, movies, music, art, visual aids, role play, games, activities, experiments, modeling, technology, and manipulatives. No matter what, I try to relate the topic being taught to the real world and I always try to make learning as fun as possible! =) During all of my years of high school and college, I was very motivated and always strive to do my best.

When I lived in Brasilia-DF, Brazil I was the director, coordinator, teacher trainer and student advisor for Instituto Cultural America - a language Institute for Brazilian students/exchange program students to the United States - and I simply loved my work as I love making a difference in children's (and adult's) lives by educating, exploring, showing, providing, drawing out and bonding with my student's future, endeavors and education. I have noticed, in my 30 years of teaching, that students really need to bond with their teachers in order to believe that believing and learning is possible! I was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to an American father and a Brazilian mother. When I was 6 years old, my mother remarried a Brazilian diplomat and I spent many years traveling, living and studying abroad. In 1964 we settled down in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where I completed my studies and p
