My teaching experience and my hobby was directing and acting in productions. I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my students and for myself. I find joy in learning and believe that teaching allows me to share this joy. I have been a teacher for 40 years. I retired because family care-giving required my full attention. My studies prepared me to teach and my experience prepared me to meet the needs of each student. I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can he

I allow my teaching style to mold itself to each individual student, finding methods of communicating the information that best suit the learning style of my student. I favor a holistic approach to learning, believing that education should be of the whole person. If a student learns how a skill in his tutoring session can be applied in real life, then his or her perception of the subject may fundamentally improve. I am a graduate of Tennessee Temple University, with experience tutoring at Tennessee Temple University, as well as University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, in various topics, including biodiversity, mathematics (up to pre-calculus), history, and American Sign Language. I continue to study in my personal time as many topics as possible, with the belief that a good tutor is firstly a good student.

I began teaching Speech and Dramatic Arts in 1997 after 20 years in private industry. Initially I taught in a K-8 parochial school. In 2004 I began teaching ESE children at the Broach School (private school)in both English and Reading to high needs 6th-12th graders. Many of these students had failed in the public school system. Over a three year period I was able to raise the average student 1.5 grade levels per year in language mechanics and vocabulary and 2.3 grade levels in reading comprehension. In 2008 I became employed at Tempette Learning Academy where I currently teach ESE students 6th-12th grades in English and Reading. I teach high needs, inner-city students every day, many of whom are classified as ESE. (Exceptional Student Education). I use a very engaged teaching style that encourages each child to work on an instructional-rather than a frustration-level. I believe all chil

I have had some minor experiences as a teacher’s aide. Some of these included working one-on-one with children needing assistance in 7th grade language arts classes. I worked under the tutelage of two 7th grade language arts teachers. I prepared lessons, taught classes, and assessed student progress, supervised by the cooperating teachers. I was able to see how they both handled the curriculum, as well as managing their classes. However, I have not been strictly confined to the classroom. I served as a student assistant to the director of secondary education for a small urban school district. I read and reviewed curriculum guides. Lessons were to meet state standards. Endowing knowledge to children is my passion. I believe that every child can learn. It is up to the teacer to determine his/hers learning style and adapt to it.

I have an earned bachelor's degree in elementary education. I was also privileged to be one of the creators and researchers of Hammond Baptist Grade School Curriculum. I graduated from Hyles-Anderson College in 1984. I have experience teaching a variety of grade levels. I have tutored elementary students grades first through fifth in all subjects. Teaching is one of the joys of my life. Watching a student's eyes light up, their expression brighten when they grasp a concept, understand what they read for the first time and share what they have learned is priceless. My students are the future. They are potential. I believe repetition is the key to learning. Simple presentation of a subject and positive reinforcement of that concept pave the way for clear understanding.

There are many ways to teach a variety of subjects but connecting the subject with the students life - connected learning is supported by Mary Belenky et al in her book, "Women's Ways Of Knowing." Mary was my professor at Goddard and I have found connecting learning with life experience has been an effective way to get students to understand the subject.Even Frank McCort (Angela's Ashes) describes this technique he used succesfully in his teaching. Over the many years I have worked as adjunct faculty at Maria College in Albany, NY and presently at St Johns Community College I have tutored students in writing papers,how to organize their study time,and to prepare for tests. I have taught medical terminolgy, various healthcare courses and psychology as well as theater scene study courses and acting skills.

I love teaching people of all ages. I believe any person is capable of learning if their education is made specific to their needs. Some people are auditory learners, some are visual learners and some are tactil learners. I believe learning should be entertaining and interesting, as well as informative.I am inventive, patient, enthusiastic and cooperative. I get along well with children, as well as with adults of all ages, races and socio-economic groups. I am an avid reader and would use my reading, writing and verbal skills to help any person overcome an educational obstacle. I graduated from the University of North Fl,Cum Laude. I am certified to teach K-5. I am qualified beyond that level because I supplemented my income in college by researching, outlining and writing papers for other students. I also worked part-time as a tutor at the college level. I have a 20 year old son who is

Teaching is part of whom I am. There is no greater feeling of accomplishment when I have helped a child or teen progress and feel good about learning. I am patient and strive to know the student and their unique needs. I tailor my approach according to each student's learning style and academic level. There is no question that with a willing child and positive environment, all hurdles can be surmounted and the student can achieve the success he desires. I try to build a sense of self confidence in the student so that he/she can realize their potential. I have taught grades k through 12 and beyond in the areas of general elementary ed, reading, writing, advanced composition and literature, grammar and study skills. I have most recently tutored students at a local prep school in Advanced English. I have also had the joy of tutoring kindergardeners and first graders in basic reading s

I taught Kindergarten in Gainesville in 2008 and am teaching Kindergarten in Jacksonville at St. Pius elementary school. I have been babysitting, tutoring, and working with children for ten years. I spent the summer in Italy as an English tutor. I am passionate about working with all children and making a difference. I know that all children can learn but that they learn differently and will need various teaching styles. I like to use a lot of manipulatives when teaching math and reading, to use songs, and to find things you child enjoys to teach them important educational necessities. I believe that high expectations yield high reseults. My experience with low income students in Jacksonville has shown me that anyone can learn if they are given the proper tools and enthusiastic support.
