A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.
I have taught elementary school in private and public settings, in both New York City and Florida. I taught high school English and Global Studies in New York city. I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students. I have also helped prepare adult students for the TABE, GED, and similar tests.

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching children and helping them accomplish their goals. I believe that learning should be fun. I try to motivate each child by focusing on their strengths. I encourage each child to try their best. I believe that each child has the potential to do well in school and I feel that it is my job to help them succeed. I have helped several of my students improve their math and reading grades, dramatically! One of my students was failing math and he received a B on his last report card! The other student went from a fourth grade reading level to a seventh grade reading level in less than three months. I enjoy seeing the smiles on the children's faces when they get a good report card and it makes my job worthwhile.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students and seeing the smiles on their faces when that light bulb comes on. We all have it. Sometimes it takes to know that the person teaching you really cares to see you learn. I consider myself to be patient but firm. I like for my students to know that anything worth having has to be worked for or earned. Education is the same way. Every student is different so as an educator, I have learned to adapt to the individual's learning need. Some learn by seeing, while others hearing, maybe even hands on demonstrations. No matter the task, when finished, my students will walk away feeling as if they've reached that pinnacle mark. I consider the smallest gain a great accomplishment.
I have worked with students from elementary to high school. From grammar, phonics, & phonemic awareness all the way to vocaublary and comprehension I consider myself highly qua ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a passion for teaching/helping children discover the pleasure of learning. I enjoy very much working with different cultures/languages -it is a learning experience for me. I believe each individual has unique ways of learning and interests, so the lessons should be taylor for the individual.
I started preparing to teach when I came to the United States right after high school from a country with a language other than English by learning English; I then had the opportunity to attend college for a short while and then teach my own children -they were home-taught up to tenth grade. I worked as a teacher assistant for about six months and as a substitute teacher for about ten years. I work as a math remediation teacher for Maplewood Elementary and I worked as a tutor from September 2009 to June 2010 for children in the subjects of math and reading.

My teaching styles is one of me being the facilator and the student being the participant. Therefore their success is a team effort. I have come to see that this approach has helped students I have worked with get the most out of their education. It has to be all about the student being the best they can be academically. If they become a full participant in the learning process they will be more willing to learn more. This is the motivation for me to continue to be an educator.
I process degrees in school guidance counseling and human services. My work experience include teaching at the college level, a former school administrator and teacher. These positions have equipped me to tutor children at their current academic level. When taking the approach of partnering with students in their academic journey, it is recipe for success.

Teaching was not in my immediate future. I started substituting when I came to Florida and fell in love with teaching. I have a BS in Criminal Justice and have been through a Certification program with CFCC. I feel that I bring excitement, knowledge, enthusiasm and creativity to my students and have seen them excel in their reading skills and writing. I have tutored students in Reading in preparation for FCAT as well as succeeding in their futures.
I believe that my style of teaching can be summarized by one word..."FRESH". I look at education through fresh eyes and my students as a new challenge and endeavor.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very interactive with the student and I want them to see me as a friend. I for one do not like to be told what to do and how to do it, that never helps me learn. It is better when you feel you are working towards a common goal with your superior. I want my student to feel free to talk to me about anything, and to enjoy learning the material he or she is struggling with. You simply do not learn as much when you dread coming into the classroom everyday. I like to make games out of the work. Whether that has to do with an intensive game to really build the learning level, or a game just to release some tension and build my students confidence.
As a college athlete I always have been encouraged to help out the community. Because of my high level of math, I knew that I could really help others learn the material in a fun way. Math is something that has always been easy to me, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After completing my coursework and my first year of classroom experience, I know that I was meant to be a teacher. I finally feel as if I have found my niche and my career. I love teaching and working with children. I love the creativity that I am able to use in my lessons to really engage my students. I am very patient and easy going, however I possess firm classroom management procedures that I lay out for the students at the beginning of the year. I let my students know that I am approachable, but they know that I expect respect from them. I believe that all students can learn and reach a level of success. I hope that throughout my teaching career that I make an impact on my student's lives and assist them in building the foundation to achieve their goals.
