Chess Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Safety Harbor, FL

Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach. After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry.

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

I have two main goals when I teach or tutor. One is to meet the student where they are. I seek to meet their learning style, background, and ability in the subject. Secondly, I try to make the the subject as interesting as possible. I present it in an interesting and fun manner, such as using analogies, references, and real life application when possible. I am also very patient with slower learners and able to meet the fast-paced demands of a gifted student. I enjoy getting to know the student and helping them succeed at every level. Throughout my life I have been an avid learner. I have explored many subjects in mathematic, science, literature, art, and history through my education as a homeschool student, dual-enrollment at SPC, and my academic career at the University of Florida. However, I do not keep this knowledge to myself; it is one of my great joys to share and teach others what

My teaching style consists of high energy and a positive attitude. I am a firm believer that positive energy is contageous and as such brings a high level of enthusiasm to my classroom. I am not afraid to "have fun" with my students as long as they are fully aware of what is expected from them. I run a routine-oriented classroom packed with visual cues, sensory stimulating activities, and an attitude that each of my students will succeed to their maximum potential. I also do my best to ensure that my students know they are well cared-for and safe and that it is ok to have fun while we learn. Directly after graduating from Purdue University, I accepted a position as a teacher of 5 high school students participating in a voluntary community based vocational instruction program.

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.

I have always enjoyed teaching others. My students consistently comment on my patience and good humor. In the end though, I believe that eveyone teaches themselves. My job as a teacher is to act as a good guide for a student's learning journey, pointing out the way, helping them to avoid pitfalls, providing encouragement, and good company along the way. I have always valued education, and enjoy helping others to learn. I am an Illinois State and National Merit Scholar. I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Maryland with a major in mathematics and education in 1991. I am a former certified secondary mathematics instructor and taught for Baltimore County Schools.

I have worked with and helped children of all age levels and abilities.

I love working with children, and I feel an overwhelming sense of accomplishment when I make a difference in a child's life.

I enjoy seeing anyone's eyes light up when they learn something new. Everyone has the capacity to learn, and I reflect that by tailoring my teaching style to each individual. In a classroom setting, I am patient and frequently ask questions and wait for students to ask their questions. While the students are working on their exercises, I will answer any questions. I try to get the student to work through the problem him- or herself rather than giving the answer straight-out. Having a love of knowledge and learning, I have always been interested in teaching. I tutored other students both officially and unofficially from grade school through college level. Just last year I spent most of the year instructing students in various computer-related subjects. I have always been proficient in Math and Sciences, as well as good knowledge of history, social studies, and all other general subjects.

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. 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 aim at fostering critical thinking among students. In sharp contrast to the lecture method where answers are fed mechanically, I give students questions to which they have to find answers through a process of reasoning. Students are trained to inquire, probe, and seek more questions in the answers they receive. With this method, concepts and ideas can be analyzed, and assumptions can be questioned. Students are forced to think about the implications and consequences of their actions and thoughts. • Work with at-risk youths and adults in the offender system. • Prepare them for G.E.D. testing and job-placement. • Exercise strong leadership and classroom management • Delegate instructional lessons/presentations • Create course lesson plans • Analyze and attend to individuals’ needs • Rate and document individuals’ progress • Establish an environment of discipline and ins

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. I have taught Elementary School, High School, Adult Education, Special Education and English as a Second Language. 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
