More About This Tutor...

As a University of North Florida graduate, I was driven to plant the seeds of learning and touch the lives of students. I have earned a bachelors degree in Elementary Education, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in teaching grades 1-6. I have taught second grade in the public school system for five years. I have a real love for children and feel rewarded as I see growth and development in my students
The reason why I chose the teaching profession is because I want to be able to make a difference in the life of a child. I use many different teaching techniques so that I can meet the needs of individual students. I use visual, verbal, and hands-on teaching strategies. I am very patient and have faith in all of my students to become successful, and reach their fullest potential.

More About This Tutor...

With my experience in teaching, I have realized that students are like snowflakes- all unique and they learn in different ways. I always pay attention to the different ways they learn and incorporate that into my lesson plans. As a tutor, I will discover the way your child learns to satisfy their academic needs. I am a firm believer that teaching is a career choice that involves passion for success. I have the passion and dedication that will make all the difference in your child's academics.
Teaching, in general, has always been a passion of mine. I received my BA in Elementary Education in May of 2007. My internship experience was teaching Language Arts in a middle school in Chicago, IL. Upon moving to Fernandina Beach, I became a teacher for Catapult Learning in Jacksonville. During this time, I provided supplemental Reading/Math instruction to students in the first through sixt ... read more

Throughout my teaching, I have adapted the classroom to complement and enrich each student’s learning style, a challenge I thoroughly enjoy. I believe in considering the needs of the whole child, so life lessons can become tools and participation in the journey of learning becomes key towards a measureable outcome of success. I have always attempted to connect with students in a unique and significant way, challenging them to them to expand and believe in their capabilities. With nurturing support children will strive for their potential, and if I can make it fun along the way, then everyone enjoys themselves, all the while important learning and growth has taken place.
My B.S. in Elementary Education has provided twenty-five years of teaching in a wide range of experiences. I have taught K3-8 grade students, including those considered “at-risk” due to emotional and behavioral ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love children and watching their eyes light up when understanding a certain subject brings joy to my heart. Patience is one of my strong points and I try to let the child reach thier goals in learning as independently as possible by encouraging them to work toward and answer to a question methodically and using a "figure it out" type style. On the other hand, I stay by my students side offering a shoulder to lean on, and support when struggling.
I was a tutor of Elementary School age children for one year, before joining the military. I am a mother of two boys, one being in the 2nd grade and am experienced in elementary level schoolwork and reading. I am extremely organized and efficient and love to help kids learn!

A Little Bit About Me...

During my time in high school, I started going to math tutoring to work on my homework. There was one fantastic teacher, and many students. When I would finish my homework, I would help others. Later, in college, I passed math and once again found myself helping others. When a work-study position opened up, the learning assistance program hired me as an in-class tutor/teacher’s assistant. The program switched directors, and I began working one-on-one with students who required an individual instructor. During the summer, I worked for the ‘Bridge’ program wherein we assisted students who had difficulty transitioning between high school and college.
I like to encourage people to pursue their potential. I hate busy-work, and try to give assignments that work on multiple levels; therefore, even if the student may not immediately see success in a trouble area, the student can be encoura ... read more

From a young age I've always been interested in helping those less fortunate than myself. I've been a mentor, a tutor, a Peace Corps volunteer, and I've also worked as a Hospice volunteer. Having these broad experiences in the United States as well as abroad has helped me to garner a deeper understanding of how to communicate with people on all levels. As a Hospice volunteer I've learned the art of listening. Being a visual artist has given me the ability to approach what appears to be the most difficult of problems with the boundless energy of creativity. I've tutored those that don't speak English as their first language and I mentored children from local [Gainesville] Boys and Girls clubs while in college. While in the Peace Corps I taught basic health and wellness skills.
The best teachers that I've had and that have made the deepest impressions on me have been kind, generous w ... read more

My nine years experience with children has honed my ability to connect with my students at a high level of excellence in education. My Bachelors degree in Sociology has enabled me to see students at their individual needs in learning. In addition, having taken the Teachers Preparation Courses at FSCJ had extensively trained me in grammatical skills due to the writing of research papers and field work experiences that were required in the course. It has also greatly trained me in the processes in teaching styles,lesson planning,and instructional strategies in reading, math, science, and social studies.
I believe that each child has the potential to learn. I love children and teaching them is my greatest passion. I am a firm believer of Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences which states that each child has a different learning style. I am patient, fun loving, and motivating. I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always enjoyed working and playing with children. I am a positive person, “The glass is always half full.” Through positive response and encouragement, I feel that students become more self assured. Every child has potential, and we as educators and parents, must tap into that potential. Not every child learns the same way. It is important to find how and what makes a student want to learn. Positive reinforcement, constructive criticism, consideration and respect for each other and patience are all a part of my teaching style. I strive to make a difference in each student I tutor.
After graduating with High Honors from the University of Florida, I started my career in the field of Special Education. I taught both mentally and physically handicapped children/adults. I taught both in a school setting and home setting for students unable to physically attend school. Af ... read more

I began teaching private guitar lessons while I was still in High School. While working on my Bachelor's degree in Columbus Ohio I taught guitar and tutored Spanish. In 2002, I moved to Florida where I began working on my MA in Adult and Secondary Education with a concentration in Spanish. I have completed the requirements of that MA degree but have not applied to graduate in that I am taking MA level courses in TESOL to allow for a second concentration under the same Masters' degree. I have been tutoring Spanish, Portuguese, writing and English for Speakers of Other Languages at UNF for the last seven semesters. For me tutoring and teaching are not just a profession they are a passion.
