I am graduating high school this year and I am the oldest of three children. My sister is in first grade and my brother is in PreK. After school we come home and work on homework and sight words. I have babysat family friends and neighbors for three years now. I completed two years of Early Childhood Education classes with a built-in VPK. In this program, we designed and taught our own lesson plans for the children in VPK. I have experience working with children ages 3-5 and teaching science, social studies and math skills. I am also certified in CPR. I am patient and treat kids with the same respect I am given. since I am young, I believe teaching kids will be easier because I can understand any troubles they may be having and the material is fresh in my head.

I am a graphic designer with a high level of expertise in motion graphics, print design, branding and identity, and web design. I have worked for a marketing company the last few years as a motion and graphic designer and recently for a design agency designing material for various different clients. I am also a drummer and musician, and an artist. I like to be hands on in my teaching technique and have you do the assignments with some supplemental knowledge given to you as you do it. Everything is step by step and builds upon itself until you master the subject. I want the student to have fun while we do it, I'm not too serious and not too joking either. I want you to enjoy the subject and learn at your own pace.

After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry. Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach.

I truly enjoy working with students of all ages. It doesn't matter what they don't know because I believe anyone can be taught anything, at least as long as you have the right teacher and materials at your disposal. I believe students are like little sponges. They're taking in everything around them. Obviously, if you fill their heads with garbage, they will learn garbage. However, if you fill their heads with quality information, you explain it in a way that they understand, and you make it fun for them to learn, then they will learn everything you're trying to teach. There are thousands of educators, but only a few real teachers who can get a message across in such a way that the student doesn't just do the work, they UNDERSTAND what they're doing and why. As far as I'm concerned, if a student doesn't learn something, it's not because he didn't try. It's because I failed to teach him i

I began tutoring as a para-educator for the Tacoma school district in 1997. While I worked at two different elementary schools, I tutored children in all grades and all subjects, with a focus in reading and writing. I facilitated my own reading circle with the fourth graders, tutored the first graders in how to tell time and count money, and conducted science experiments with the third graders to name a few of my accomplishments. My life's journey has also taken me down the path of teaching English as a Second Language. I tutored Asian children 12-18 years of age with minimal understanding of the English language. I have also tutored ESL privately. While going to school to obtain my ECE degree, I had to complete a practicum. Within this learning arena, I completed three months as a preschool teacher which helped me hone my skills as a facilitator of learning. While attending the

I have experience teaching developmentally disabled adults how to read as well as art therapy. I am currently a tutor for the Sarasota School District and am level II pre-screened. As a graduate in the field of Liberal Arts, Arts and Letters, I have studied a wide array of subjects. I am comfortable tutoring children (as I do now 1-5) as well as young adults or adults preparing for the GED or SAT. I excel in all subject areas, however I have no experience in trigonometry or calculus. I have studied fine arts, humanities, biology, creative writing (have written two soon to be published books) as well as statistics and I speak fluent Spanish. My teaching style is associative. I believe in visual cues as well as personal associations/visualization in order to learn and remember material. I possess excellent study habits that I believe I could convey/transfer to students.

I taught public school in Florida from K-12 for the last 16 years. I taught for more than 10 years in the private school. I am still teaching part-time at a private company. My passion for teaching and the diverse subjects and levels of students that I have taught are two of my great assets that can be very useful in the tutoring profession. I teach to help my student reach his or her highest potential. Depending on the subject I use a highly academic and focussed style of teaching. If it is communication like English, Writing and Journalism , I use a lot of teacher-generated materials. I am very flexible and would like to meet the needs of a particular student by administering some kind of a skill inventory survey to identify his or her style of learning. An inventory of his interests and skills will also be a good tool for me to assess the student's strengths.

I have a natural gift for teaching and I very much enjoy it. I am an upbeat person who is a natural encourager and I am a patient person. I am very methodical and organized in my teaching. I tend to come from a different angle, presenting information with a different perspective that allows for greater understanding. I love to see the "ah-ah" moments when someone understands something they had previously been unable to grasp. I find it very rewarding and exciting. I have 5 years of volunteer teaching experience. I have worked with ages of children ranging from infant to 5th grade. In addition I have a years worth of experience teaching adults. I have worked in the areas of memorization, art, music, stories and use of analogy. I have also focused on reading and writing. I am currently in a Masters program to receive a degree in Professional Counseling. As a result of the many papers

I wholeheartedly believe in the power of education. I believe that education is the key to our freedom in life. I hope to teach this philosophy to my students. As a teacher, I would describe myself as laid-back and patient. I have found that my patience is what helps me in helping students comprehend the information they are learning. I teach to every learning style and intelligence. I believe all children can learn much more than we expect of them, they just have to be taught the way they learn. Diversity is what makes our world go around, and that is what I teach to my students. Growing up, I never thought that I would want to be a teacher. After taking a job as a Childcare Counselor with the YMCA, I realized the I was meant to teach and work with children. I have been working with the YMCA for close to three years. I graduated from Manatee Community College with my Assoc

I always seek to educate by exploiting a child's natural curiosity. I first try to build trust and discover what motivates each individual student. I rarely need to use authority as a teaching tool, but much prefer to use an agreed reward system and set achievable short term goals. I like to use a scientific method allowing the student to propose the direction of study and act as a guide to learning through experimentation with several approaches to the task. I always want to be prepared to arrest frustration with a prepared alternative method of accessing the same material. I like lessons that combine subjects into integrated projects that challenge the student but are composed of small successes that eventually show the student how much they can achieve. I do not emphasize time-based skills but I hold myself to continuous improvement and measurement. I have many years experience in pro
