I gear my teaching style to the individual I am working with. In 14 years I have learned that even though a method may work for one student, it does not necessarily mean it will work for another. In the first few session I test a small variety of applicable teaching methods and adapt them as time goes on. I have been working with students in both one-on-one and group settings for going on 14 years. I began tutoring groups of children at an inner city after school program in Language Arts and Reading Comprehension. I went into further training at my high school and became a designated math tutor for those in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and Geometry. After high school I revisted my loved for tutoring at Jefferson County Community College where I tutored Reading Comprehension, Composition, and Study Skills. Throughout the years I have tutored a variety of students in various areas through freela

I enjoy teaching and observing my students' different learning styles. I respect each student's individual method of assimilation. I work hard to accommodate his or her particular needs. I delight in the dynamics of the classroom and strongly believe that I can make a difference in whether the student becomes engaged in the learning process. I place a high value on formal education and believe strongly in lifelong learning, for the betterment of the individual and, ultimately, for society. While raising three young children, I obtained my undergraduate degree in business administration. In later acquiring a law degree, I was introduced to the rigorous demands of such study and to the fascinating arena of reasoning and analytical thinking required by this discipline. I have tutored young children intermittenly over several years, with one stint of four years length as a Literacy Voluntee

I earned my bachelor degree in Communications and Creative Writing (double major), which has attributed to my excellent verbal communication skills as well as my writing skills. I've worked in a variety of environments from a newspaper to a radio station, in addition to my course work which emphasized research and reading for comprehension. As the poetry editor of FSU's literary magazine and the assistant editor of FSU's newspaper, I organized others into creative and critical ways of thinking and processing. My mother is a reading development teacher. She works with Title 1 children every day in her job. Before coming to college, I volunteered over 100 hours working with a Title 1 child on her reading, writing, and math skills. She was in the third grade for the second time that year, and by no means can I take credit for the fact that she went on to pass that year, but I do believe I h

I feel that children need to be taught in the best style for them. Some children need to be taught by seeing, some by doing. If you take the time to learn their teaching style you will recieve the best outcome from that child. I have always enjoyed working with children. I started out working in preschools and now I spend my time helping children learn to read. With my bachelor's in English I believe this will help me to give children the experience Ii had in order to achieve their goals in reading.

My philosophy on education consists of repetition, consistency of lessons/homework assignments, and active participation amongst the students that would be expected and required. The class would have assignments that would not call for memorization, but for critical and analytic assessments that causes children to think outside of the regular norms. Group assignments encourage team work and repetition that does not become memorization but something that comes natural to ones ability. Repetition of assignments will allow the individual to explore different tactics and objectives for different courses to apply this to what one already knows. In order to provide the most efficient means of productivity, regular homework and class assignments will be given accordingly. Worksheets would be provided for students to do in class as a pre-requisite for their homework for the night. A

I have earned an Associate degree in Business Administration, and as such, I believe that I am qualified to help students with their math skills. Also, as a college graduate, I have excellent reading, verbal, and writing skills. I've gained these skills from taking many college courses on speech and writing. Throughout my college career I had to write many research papers and reports for my courses. I have excellent grammar, and my spelling is top notch as well. I have helped many students in the past achieve better reading, writing, verbal, and math skills. I enjoy teaching others, and I get a sense of joy in seeing others excel. I am patient, kind, and flexible with students. The people I have taught in the past say I explain everything in a way they can understand, and I've often been complimented and encouraged by my students to continue teaching. I believe every child is capable of

I actually have always taught others, even as a child, my peers came to me to learn new things because of my patience and persistence to help them learn. So, it was easy to study education in college. There my focus shifted to the more difficult children and adults to teach that had learning disabilities. Meeting the students where they are and accessing their needs is the place to start and then providing an environment that they will thrive in. I have always been a very intuitive and creative teacher - always loving children of all ages. When at the U. of South Florida, in order to receive a degree in Special Education we were also required to meet all criteria for a degree in Elementary Education. Therefor, I graduated with a double degree and a minor in Art education. The majority of my teaching experience was in the field from Educable retarded to the last years at our state institu

Upon graduating with a BA in International Affairs and Spanish in the Spring of 2003, I traveled to India to work in an orphanage and school for orphaned and underpriviledged children. For six months, I taught a wide range of subjects, including Reading, Writing, History, Social Sciences and Math in a small classroom setting (10-30 students). Last summer, I traveled to Guatemala and Mexico to work in an orphanage for abused children, to where I also returned for the past Christmas break. In the orphanage, I tutored children on a one-to-one basis in Math, English, and Reading. I also worked at an after-school program during the Fall semester of 2005, where I offered homework help to Third grade students. I truly enjoy teaching and working with children in all capacities. I believe that I am best when teaching on a one-to-one basis. I consider myself to be a very patient person and ha
