"Knowledge is converted into Wisdom, after it's acted upon."

My teaching style is relaxed, allowing ( and encouraging) more interaction with my students. I encourage my students to participate wholly, in the discussion.
I have taught K-12 students and college students academic, college prep and adult education for 25 years. My students are encouraged to be academically strong , goal setters and goal achievers. I enjoy beung a lifelong learner, as I continue to acquire new knowledge. I have been contracted and tenured (by school districts). I began teaching (upon being advised to ddo so) as a substitute. This afforded me the opportunity to observe the different nuances of several schools, before I accepted a contract offer.

Math Teacher Who Gets Results!

I have taught Math, English, Science and other core courses in California public and private schools for 28 years. My students always enjoy learning with me because I teach application as well as theory. I show how and where the facts being learned can be employed. The more students are involved with the learning process the faster they internalize the material and the sharper, clearer will be their recall.
My teaching style is a combination of TPR (Total Physical Response), Socratic and Discovery. I believe that involving the student's intellect and creativity is very valuable in arriving at their understanding of the material.

A Little Bit About Me...

I sit with students and ask them what they are having trouble with. I will then explain to them and make it as clear as possible so they can understand better the subject they are having trouble with. Once done with my explanation, I will have them work out problems to show me they really understand the subject. It is very important to be patient with every student because some are fast learners and some are slow learners. Depending how much the student is struggling, I will dedicate my time and make sure students fully understand everything they are required to learn.
During my senior year in high school, I tutored and mentored at a program named AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination). This program is designed to prepare students for college. My job was to help students with any subject they were having trouble with. Math was the most common subject that students needed h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in Howard Garner's theory of teaching to the student style of learning. They are as follows: Visual, Auditory, Musical, Kinesthetic, Interpersonal and Intrapersonal. As I work with the student and get to understand their abilities and limitations I develop a style that will work the best for that particular student.
I have worked with students of all grade levels from volunteering at the Cocopah Head Start preschool to working with high school students as a substitute teacher. I have an English as a Second Language endorsement and have worked with adults in improving the English level. I excell in creative writing and am currently assisting friends in obtaining their GED.

A Little Bit About Me...

During all my time as a student I tried to help my classmates to improve their learning and their grades by tutoring them. I have earned a bachelor degree in Industrial Engineer, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and physics. I am a Spanish native speaker, so I can help students in this language too. In my years of tutoring I have tutored students in mathematics (trigonometry, algebra), physics and English as a second language.
I love math so I truly enjoy helping children to discover the world of math and to be fearless at them. I am patient, easy going but at the same time firm to teach. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference to a child's education.

As a daughter of an elementary education teacher, I have been driven by a passion to teach children in areas where they show need. I am in my second year in Northern Arizona University with junior credits. My major is in Sociology, but I believe that helps me in pin-pointing the most important aspects of helping children individually in different social settings. I have done tutoring before, but never with a school district. I believe that every child has a unique way of learning and I am capable and flexible in showing them the different ways in which they can learn. I am an extremely patient person and will not stop until my student has learned every subject problem area. I am dedicate to the student one hundred percent.
My teaching style varies according to the different areas of need in each child. No one child is the same, and they all learn in different manners. I approach ... read more

I believe that each child is capable of learning. I want my students to know that I will not give up on them, and that I believe they are all capable of learning and making progress. I believe that students succeed when they are actively involved in their own learning. For this reason, I will use plenty of hands-on activities and manipulatives that will reinforce concepts to students. I have always loved learning new things, and would love to share and instill my joy of learning to each child I teach.
I currently have a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and hold an Arizona teaching certificate. I have spent many years volunteering in both my parent's classrooms. I have also spent the last school year substituting in elementary schools in Tennessee where I am living now. I have thoroughly enjoyed substituting in different grades and subjects.

Working in educatuion is a challenge I enjoy, especially when I see how well a student progresses. I hope to be able to continue to make a differnce in a young person's life and be a positive influence on them.
In May of 2004 I graduated from a small liberal arts college in Tacoma, Washington. I majored in English with an emphasis in writing. The writing curriculum I followed consisted of writing personal essays, articles, short fiction and even writing for children. Additionally, I wrote several research reports. Research for my Masters Degree required a lengthy detailed dissertation which turned out to consist of four chapters and about forty pages. I have had to practice my gr ... read more

My teaching style is vary diverse when it comes to my students. I do not believe in one teaching style because there will never be just one learning style present with any child. Every child learns a different way in different subjects and I believe in discovering the child's learning styles and basing my teaching around that so they are able to learn to the best of their ability. I like to use different methods to compliment and challenge their learning styles and thought, but I also use what they understand the best to help them learn what they need to know and so they can become independent and learn even beyond that.
