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 difficulties or learning differences, in traditional and outdoor classroom settings. I was able to integrate numerous evaluation methods and projects, including construction of 3-D artistic replicas, and student written, directed and acted skits. In addition, I incorporated the Internet and other news sources to further current event discussion. The emphasis of my work has been on teaching critical and effective reading and writing skills in regards to all subjects. A thinking student is a student who understands. 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 consideri

I achieved an A.A.S. in Paralegal Studies and a BA in Pre Law. It was due to my most excellent parochial elementary and secondary education, that I was able to achieve the academic success I experienced returning to college as an adult student.

I truly enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. As a Literacy Volunteer and Substitute Teacher I was able to do that. I have a need to know approach learning.

I tailor my teaching style to the student. I believe that the lesson should be based on the learner and not the preference of the teacher. Repetition is good for learning; therefore, the use of various teaching methods are employed in order to maximize the information retained and learned by the individual student. I may use music, writing, reading (various types of writing materials),arts & crafts, and real life relations to engage the student in retaining and comprehending information; not just for the class, but for a solid foundation in the subject area. I desire for the student to retain the information beyond the test. I was a Graduate Teacher’s Assistant at the University of North Florida January 2008-May 2008 in the Criminal Justice & Criminology Department, for Crime In America & Justice Systems (Courses included Freshman-Senior); where I facilitated breakout sessions of lec

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.

After several years of teaching in the United States, I was able to teach at an International School in Papua New Guinea. I taught English as a second language. Having to use different styles of teaching in Special Education was very beneficial. My next adventure in teaching came in Dunedin, New Zealand, where I was able to teach both English and Art at a very small elementary school. My experience has been mostly with younger students.

Since high school, my passion for telling stories led me to my degree in Journalism. I worked as a professional news reporter for two medium market stations and was on my way to work for a larger market. My career took a turn for the better and I found my calling was education. I have always coached and been a choreographer, so working with children and helping them succeed was also a passion. I hope to utilize my skills in writing and communications, as well as my discipline and focus skills I acquired in band, cheer and dance, to help students succeed. My teaching style is very hands-on. I believe in practical knowledge and showing students several different ways to understand something. I also believe in providing students the opportunity to figure out solutions to problems on their own with encouragement, instead of just having them copy what I say. I also believe that all lea

As a graduate of East Carolina University, I have continued to be persistent in every aspect of my teaching career. I have earned only a bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in child studies, which have helped me to develop and become the teacher that I am now. During the last four years of my college career, I have taught in a public school and have tutored children to help them succeed in their academics. My teaching style is very different, but I love being able to differentiate my lessons to best suit my students. I do believe that all children have different learning styles, so when I deliver instruction, I try to combine the types of styles and incorporate kinesthetic activities for the students to visually see and have that hands on experience. I believe repetition helps children to learn and grasp instruction as well. Through repetition and correct delivery, the s
