Jazz Dancing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sebring, FL

I have been working with children for several years. I started by teaching dance at a local dance studio while I was in high school. It was from this experience that I chose to go to college to become a teacher. I have a degree in Elementary Education and am ESOL certified. I have experience as a substitute teacher and have worked with both elementary and middle school students. I understand that all children learn differently and I am able to adapt my teaching style to fit the child. I am both patient and positive and I like to give the student confidence. My goal is to not only help the child learn, but to also give them a sense of confidence. It is important that each student believe in his or herself as well as their capabilities.

I have been told by my first year teaching mentor that my style of teaching is "unconventional". Although I majored in English, I had a concentration in creative writing and a minor in visual arts. I think of writing as an art, and so I use creative methods in the classroom to teach students. I believe our youth's attention span is getting shorter and shorter due to television/media and modern day technologies. As a teacher, it is imperative that you hold the child's interest. I believe in incorporating these technologies into the classroom, and relating material in the easiest terms and to things they already know. There is nothing worse than feeling like you are "stupid" when you cannot understand what the teacher is saying or cannot relate to it. The best learning happens when students do not even realize they are learning. That is the foundation for my style of teaching. I love teach

As an Education major graduate I am driven to challenge and reinforce students in order to obtain a high level of performance. In college I achieved a triple minor in English, Psychology and Science. I did this with the intent that strong content knowledge will greatly affect student achievement along with excellent teaching strategies. I have had experience teaching all grade levels and have taught in several different schools. My career has taken me from Canada to the UK and now to the States. I believe my "tool kit" of strategies and my drive for progress with ultimately help any child make the gains necessary for their grade level. Teaching is my passion and I thoroughly enjoy working with children. I especially enjoy working independently with children to help their social and academic needs. I strongly believe all children can learn; the mission is finding out HOW they learn. I bel

I am a highly motivated individual with a heart and love for teaching others. During high school, I took advanced placement courses in English and Calculus and through these courses I was exposed to a large variety of concepts at varying challenge levels. In AP Calculus, I was able to utilize the foundations of mathematics as well as numerous other concepts. In AP English, I learned everything from classic literature and poems to advanced grammar and writing skills. At the University of Central Florida, I continued to excel in my courses and pursued a major in the legal field when I realized my dreams of going to law school. Through my legal education at Gonzaga Law School, I learned significant skills in proper grammar and writing as a result of the numerous legal research and written legal briefs required of law students and three years of required legal research and writing course

Patient, clear. I have worked several years with young children and believe I have a great deal of patience. I would describe my teaching style as comfortable and non intimidating. I love to see children learn and become confident in themselves. I have been a substitute teacher and also am certified to teach Pre-K through 6th Grade in Brevard County. I have a college degree in Business. I spent several years working in the corporate business environment. After that, I became a Home Daycare Provider for young children, which allowed me to spend more time with my 2 children. I love watching the children learn and grow every day.

As a Social Worker, I have gained many skills in working with people. My field has allowed me to gain experience teaching in a variety of settings. I have taught students at the high school level in the areas of health education and general academic support. I had the experience of working as a Coordinator in a bi-lingual school in Guatemala which gave me the opportunity to be in the classroom guiding teachers and modeling techniques. While in Guatemala, I also had the opportunity to teach English as a second language to adults and adolescents. Opportunities through advanced study have given me valuable experience in writing and language study. I find that incorporating creative and fun learning techniques into academic lessons greatly improves student motivation. I enjoy learning the strengths and interests of the student in order to create opportunities to help them reach their f

I believe that each child is different and must be taught with that concept in mind. Teaching is motivating each child to want to learn and providing an atmosphere where that desire can develop. Every child has special gifts and as a teacher it is my desire to see those gifts grow and blossom. Everyone has a purpose and teachers are part of defining a child's purpose. I love children and I love teaching. Children are the light and future of our world. AS a teacher, I consider it an honor and privelege to have the opportunity in molding their lives through recognizing and developing their indvidual gifts and talents I began teaching classical ballet to all ages at the age of 18 and have been teaching ever since. I worked for Huntington learning centers as an English and Math tutor and as a math and english teacher at a private christian school for 6-12 grades where I also ran the p
