ADD/ADHD is one of my top subjects!

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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all children are capable of learning. We need to adjust to help everyone learn. Student- centered learning and constructivism are key components in student learning. Once again, my personal belief of education is "You only get out what you put in".
I have taught for a total of 11 years. I taught in Prince George's Public schools for 5 years, Hyde Leadership Public Charter School in DC for 1 year, Avon Park High School for 2 years, Hardee Junior High for 1 year, and Bill Duncan Opportunity Center (alternative school) for 2 years. I have a Bachelor's in Biology and certifications in Math (5-9), Biology (6-12), and Middle Grades Integrated Curriculum (5-9). I plan to also attain a certification in ESOL and Reading by the end of the year.I am also interested in getting two Master's, in Counseling and Nursing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love Reading myself and enjoy passing on that love to students. I enjoy working one on one or in small groups with students, which allows you to really see the growth and progress. I believe all children have an innate ability to learn; but some simply need more than the traditional classroom setting provides. I believe in using the student's learning style, and building upon that to strengthen their areas of need.
I have been a special education teacher for 10 years, teaching primarily Reading, although I have taught other subjects. I have tutored numerous students both privately and through a local tutoring organization and the Learning Resource Center of Polk County. Through my educator preparation and Master's degree programs at Warner University, I was taught to treat students as individuals and to utilize their areas of strength in order to remediate their areas of nee ... read more

I believe that children are life-long learners and that they continue to learn long after they leave a school setting. Children all learn in different ways, but I believe they are all capable of learning.A teacher's responsibility is to find those ways and help open the doors for their students. I believe strongly that students learn best by doing and through positive reinforcement. I strive to give my students the best possible learning opportunities , each and every day.
As a SUNY Oneonta graduate, I sought to continue my goal of becoming an elementary school teacer. I became employed in Schenectady city school district, working in a magnet school for almost two years. As a first grade teacher, I became very experienced and well versed in balanced literacy frameworks. This passed year, all 22 of my students showed impressive gains in their reading/phonics skills assessment based ... read more

My teaching is guided by the needs of my learners; hence, I create learning by setting my students on their needs and interests to life-long academic endeavors. On this journey, I help to develop strategies, techniques, and skills that will direct them on the path to help my pupils to want to succeed and to have the desire to victorious in their dreams and perceive the idea that life is predetermined by where you are; instead, they catch a glimpse of who, what, and where they can go in the creation to develop a dream.

I believe all children can learn, particularly if we match our instructional style to the learning style and needs of the student(s). As the mother of a special needs child, I constantly look to see what other teachers have perhaps missed in their dealings with a classroom full of students. My references, from supervisors and parents alike, evidence the passion I display toward struggling students. I enjoy collaborating between the home and the school to provide the child with the best education we collective can provide.
I taught elementary special education for two years with the Lima, Ohio, public schools. I taught high school Spanish and Remedial Reading for two years with the Pike Delta York schools in NW Ohio. I taught English as a Second Language to K-8 migrant children for two summers in Wauseon, Ohio. For ten years, I taught virtually all subjects to K-12 Home/Hospital bou ... read more

My teaching style consists of patience and determination. I believe that every child can learn, just at different paces. It would be my job as a tutor to figure out what learning style my student has so that I can capitalize their learning experience while being tutored.

Over the last three years I have worked in Hillsborough County as a Middle School Science Teacher. After three years of teaching Science I had a strong desire to work with ESE and Special Needs children so I became a Sub for Hillsborough County so I could travel where need and work with various children. Prior to teaching in FL, I taught in SC and provided reading pull out in WV. During my time in WV I worked on a dual Masters in Literacy and Elementary Education, but was unable to finish it due to lack of aid. While teaching FL, I have also tutored children privately and with a SES service.
