Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach. After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry.

Have taken many professional communication courses that have enhanced my ability to communicate with colleagues, co-workers, classmates, and professors. Important life skill to be able to eloquently conduct yourself in a professional manner I truly believe in experiential learning as much as possible! However, sometimes this isn't always applicable. In others cases, I am a very visual person and like to teach with as many graphics and visuals as I can. I believe in trying to help students understand the "bigger picture" of a concept and then learning the details, rather than through memorization. I am a fun, bubbly person and like to make learning and studying as enjoyable as possible!

I am extremely competent in creating and using multimedia presentation tools in the learning environment. I taught PowerPoint and Macromedia Director for 8 years and co-created a multimedia CD-ROM commercial software program “FUN WITH PHONICS” for 3 to 5 year olds.

My philosophy is that all children can learn and succeed in their studies. I have found over the years I have learned how adapt to a very much hands on approach or I can let the students discover on their own. Each child is different and a teacher must be flexible enough to adjust to the child's personality. I have taught in the 70's and now again in the 20's.

Having raised three children with very different learning styles and strengths, I became keenly interested in the ways children learn. As a professional singer and entertainer, the classroom was a natural place to bring the multisensory approach to children with a variety of needs. I have taught grades K-12 in a private school where multisensory methods were the key to each student's success. I have also used those methods with the children I have tutored. I am certified in English and have written over thirty articles for magazines and newspapers. I also have a strong background in science, especially in the areas of ecology and biology. I enjoy making my classroom or tutoring area a place where children feel safe to learn, ask questions, and have fun. Since the art of language and literature is my primary area of interest, I use the Socratic method of questioning to pull ideas from my
