My teaching experience began in high school, when I would review and edit my classmates essays. On several occasions, I also went through essays line by line. In addition, I taught swim lessons to preschool aged children, and helped coach crew to high school aged students. Throughout college, I continued to aid my peers with their essays, and often participated in workshops outside of class. As a writer, I have extensively studied methods of teaching to English Language Learners, and native speakers alike. I have also conducted research in rhetoric studies and language acquisition. In short, I love English written and spoken, and I have a passion for teaching. Everyone's teaching style is an accumulation of the teachers they have met. My favorite teachers were tough, they pushed me to do my best, and encouraged me to draft, edit, and to have high expectations for myself. The

Everyone is special and unique in how they learn and incorporate new information. I like to get to know people to understand how they can learn on their skill level. Patience and understanding is key when working with students and young people because everyone is different and special. I have experience in working with children and young people in my missions and humanitarian work. I have lead teams of teenagers and worked with children in local schools, orphanages, and community organizations. I also worked at a daycare during my internship in 2004.

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 diffi

Encouraging youth and children to reach for their full potential is my life passion. I am a profoundly patient individual with a gift of encouragement. I possess a fervent belief in each person's extreme worth. My belief drives me to draw out the abilities and gifts I recognize in others, especially young people. While I am passionate and enthusiastic, I am also self controlled and gentle in my teaching approach as it is called for. My life mission is to benefit every person I have an opportunity to spend time with. I am a passionate mentor of youth and children in a church setting. For 5 years I have mentored a youth group of 12-25 junior high and high school students. As a Sunday School teacher and Youth leader for ten years, I am experienced with group teaching and specialize in one-on-one tutoring/teaching.

As I was taking college courses, I also taught swimming lessons, after earning the ARC Lifeguard and WSI certificates. I also tutored grade school children during college in basic subjects. In college I also tutored other college students in basic English, as my major was communication and I have a fairly strong command of English. I also have experience in the newspaper industry and thoroughly enjoy helping people. I completed my BA in 2002. I like to see what works for each person since everyone has their own way of learning. Then, I use whatever works best for them. Making students comfortable is important since they're more open to learn in that environment.

I have an affinity working with chldren. I was as a social worker/court worker through the Department of Children and Families, a teacher at a school in Mims, FL for ESE kids for about a year and a half. This was from 200-2001.I worked as a therapeutic mentor for Devereux of Florida and also teaching social skills for the Department of Juvenile Justice/Board of Education for Volusia Co. Florida. I was an aide for children at an Elementary School in Thief River Falls Minnesota. These jobs span from 1999 to 2007. These different positions have afforded me the opportunity to develop teaching skills for these children in the areas of math, science, history, grammar, and social studies. I utilize a very structured teaching style that usually utilizes a lot of examples and visual aides. It also takes getting to know your student and what they best respond to. I'm a very no nonsense kind of

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 student will be able to remember and recall the facts they need in order to succeed in those areas of academics. Teaching is always a learning process. You learn new ways and ideas everyday. 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 devel

Because I was fortunate enough to receive an education, I always felt compelled to give back to the community in the same way. From my years at Summerbridge (now Breakthrough Miami), I tutored elementary and middle school students in math, literature, English, science, and history. Afterwards, attending a prestigious liberal arts college allowed me to keep up with my various academic passions in addition to high school tutoring. I studied sciences and math to fulfill my pre-medical focus while working on writing and research with my degree in history. From my experience with my own education and in tutoring others, I realize that there is no such thing and an ignorant child. Rather, a successful student is a hard worker who often times needs a little guidance and patience. Because I am an easy-going and flexible person, I am able to connect to the child in fun and interesting ways.

When I am working with students, I bring a high energy level and an equal measure of patience. I love showing children how what they are studying today will help them in the future. Every child is different, requiring activities and instruction suited to their learning style. I will persist to find the explanation that works best for each student with whom I work. All students are capable of success and academic excellence. The greatest rewards are often those that are difficult to achieve. As an educator and life-long learner, I am excited to confront and overcome those challenges. My Bachelor of Arts degree in Art History with a minor in Economics only begins to suggest my varied interests and accomplishments. I have always valued a well-rounded education and my teaching experiences allow me to share that belief with students. In college, I refined my writing and analytical ski

There is no greater joy than to connect a child to a new concept or skill and see them develop confidence in their ability to learn. I love working one on one and finding out what the student is interested in or perhaps struggling with and help them build skills. I am patient, compassionate, and firmly believe that with time and direction that each student can find their way to a better understanding of new concepts. With my creative background and appreciation for popular culture, I have been able to connect with children of all ages and backgrounds in a positive way. Working with children is my passion. With my combined undergrad degree in art and my masters in library science, I have had a fantastic experience working with children as a mentor, a long term substitute media specialist assignment, a long term substitute art teaching assignment and as a youth service librarian.

I would say that my teaching style varies depending onthe person I am teaching. There are several ways that people respond to in order for them to understand. I thik that everyone has a unique teaching style but still needs to be flexible in order to help the student understand. I have been at Fccj for a little over two years. I have studied and mastered a variety of subjects. I am starting JU next summer to earn my BSN.

Patience is, without a doubt, my biggest virtue. Taking art lessons can be intimidating, especially for an unsure student. With my experience, I have been able to identify the measures to instruct my students while keeping them comfortable in a positive environment. My goal for every lesson is to have my students leave confident and with a sense of understanding and resolution. Having grown up with tremendous support, I have been able to pursue my career in art and art education with focus and determination. After receiving my Bachelor's degree in Painting from the University of Florida, I found my way into the Duval County Public School System. Though my position was surplussed only two years later, I was able the witness the great need for an art outlet in children.

After graduating with a Master of Education from The University of Florida in 1994 I began teaching full-time at the elementary level. From 1994-2000 I taught 3rd grade, as well as 2nd-5th grade gifted students in both private and public school settings. After taking a break from teaching while I started a family of my own I returned to the education field in 2005 as a tutor of high-risk 3rd-4th graders at San Jose Elementary in Jacksonville. Following this position I spent three years as a teacher assistant in a preschool. Currently I am employed by Kelly Educational Services as a substitute teacher for Duval County Schools. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and working with children in general. I have worked with children from various backgrounds and feel that I generally have a great rapport with all types of children, as well as with their parents. I believe in making learning fun an
