My fascination with computers led me to ear two bachelor degrees in computer engineering from Morocco and computer criminology from the Florida State University. Both degrees challenged my comprehension of complex problems in math, algorithms, criminology. Furthermore, I had the privilege to serve as a lab assistant which allowed me to develop and improve my teaching capabilities. I also tutored students during my junior and senior year at FSU in discrete mathematics, databases, programming, French and Arabic. I consider teaching as the most noble work a person can do. Both my parents are teachers since 1970s and I carried that gene. In my opinion, teaching is a partnership between the instructor and the student. Feeding the curiosity of the students can help them get passionate about the subject and try to find answers. Such style helped me explain hard subjects such as cryptography to

I believe that students learn best from teaching and therefore owning the material. This means that whenever I teach, I first explain the concept, then model my thought process of solving the problem, and then I have the student teach the material back to me. By teaching in this style, this allows the student the create his or her own understanding of the subject and retain it in the long run. I have been tutoring for four years, covering many academic subjects and ages. I have worked with four year olds, middle school students, high school students, college students, and even adults who were older than me. I have a natural gift that allows me to communicate with people from all different walks of life, which makes me a successful tutor. In addition to my strong communication skills, I also experienced a unique high school experience, so I find it easy to relate to students who pref

My unique experiences have provided me with invaluable teaching experience which has shaped my teaching style. The pedagogical approach I utilized in ESL teaching called “teaching English through English” has resulted in my highly creative, adaptive, and practical approach. I not only teach the material, but also teach problem-solving techniques to enable the students to apply their knowledge to every-day life. I approach students with enthusiasm; all children are able to learn, and learn successfully! I don’t see myself as an ultimate authority, but as a facilitator of learning. Most importantly, I approach teaching with patience and commitment, as well as a true desire to see all my students meet and even exceed their own expectations. While living overseas in both Ukraine and Mexico I taught ESL through a non-profit organization for 4 1/2 years. In addition to teaching beginning

Although my bachelor's degree is in psychology, my interests throughout my education have been to study children; how they learn, how they think, and what I can do to help them better themselves. Because of this interest, I have tutored children for a couple of years some years back, and was recognized for my efforts. I have excelled in mathematics, English, and psychology, and love to pass this knowledge on to others. I also have three cousins who have come to the United States from Taiwan to learn and I have spent an extensive amount of time teaching them ESL. My teaching style is mostly form-fitted to each child. I assess what level they are at, how quickly they learn, and what areas they need help in or should strengthen. I cannot stress the importance of patience when it comes to tutoring children, which I have an abundance of, having taught various ages. Also, having studied ps

I am a licensed teacher and have a degree in English Education. My real-life experience has indoctrinated: strong organizational skills, teamwork and independent thinking. I have held several positions of responsibility and am self-motivated and self-directed. My philosophy of education focuses on student-centered learning. When students learn to be accountable for their own behavior and learning, they become practiced in valuable life-skills and become better prepared for the future. Further, I believe student-centered learning to be most effective, because students relish the idea of being entrusted to make their own decisions.

As a teacher/tutor, I find that being a good listener and paying attention to students needs creates a successful learning environment. Every child acquires information differently and their ways of learning should be respected. By creating lessons based on exciting, "real world" applications, students are more accepting to the content at hand. I graduated from Florida State University in 2004 with a B.A. in Spanish and Italian with a minor in French. I have been tutoring with the Modern Language Department since 2001 and tutor in all three languages. I also spent a month in Spain teaching English to native Spanish speakers. As an undergraduate, I was involved with the America Reads program, where I was a reading coach/language arts tutor to elementary and middle school children. I am also qualified in tutoring basic math and college prep math.

My teaching style is very unique. I enjoy teaching math because I like to find different and more exciting approaches to teaching mathematical equations. I will alter my voice, bring props, make jokes or anything that makes learning math easier to understand and enjoyable. I am patient with students because I enjoy seeing them learning new things. When I was in high school I excelled in math, particularly in Geometry. I assisted my father in tutoring a great deal of his clients.
