The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.

As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the University of South Florida, and serve as a freelance consultant for an aspiring media entertainment company.

I have learned to be disciplined and skilled in the acquisition of critical thinking, written communication, analysis, logic and reasoning. To be literate and articulate in various languages is not only handy, but eases the transition of language barriers which allows me to continually acquire polished skills in all forms of expression.

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught

I love working and learning with students of all ages. I enjoyed working in a magnet high school that concentrates on leadership, career development, and breaks the mold teaching methods.

I find it very satisfying to work with students as they supplement their education. A positive environment and methodology is very important in the learning experience - especially if that learning experience is rooted in frustration. I do my best to connect the concept to a student's personal experience so they may relate and build co

Being a Montessorian, I feel that an indivualized approach to learning is the most effective. Children should be encouraged to participate in decisions about their own education and not be treated as though their ideas and opinions don't matter, as is often the case. I also think it's imperative that the learning materials be engaging and the subjects taught be made as interesting as possible. As a teacher and tutor, I try to make learning fun and exciting to entice the student to follow their natural desire to learn, while also modeling appropriate behaviors and attitudes toward learning. Coming from a family of teachers, quality in education has always been a big part of my life. I currently teach grades 1-3 at a Montessori school, and have been tutoring both formally and informally since high school. My tutoring experiences include such diverse subjects as German, chemistry and p
