I have two decades of experience in education. My first 10 years were spent in adult education training adults to work in various organizations in the business world. My last 10 years have been spent in public education classrooms working as a teacher for elementary, middle, and high school students. I have taught core content courses at each level. Therefore, I understand how each grade level builds upon the teaching and learning of the previous grade level. I have a collaborative style of teaching. My ultimate goal is to get students to think, regardless of their age. With younger students, I tend to be much more directive so that we accomplish intended learning. With middle and high school students, I ask "Why" and "How do you know" quite often so that they learn to provide evidence for their thinking. Getting the RIGHT answer isn't the goal -- understanding and developing cri

As a native of another country, I was placed in the position of having to adapt and learn the English language quite quickly. Six months after my arrival, I was helping other children learn the language.

My strengths are English grammar, social studies, Spanish, and performing arts. I believe in every child or person's ability to learn no matter what the challenge presented. I believe everyone has a unique way of learning and the key lies in capitalizing on the appropriate learning style.

I have been in management for six years. In those six years, I have found the most rewarding part of my job is training new employees. In the past year, I have decided to change my career to teaching. I have passed the temporary certification exam for Middle Grade Mathematics, and have applied for the Hillsborough County Teacher's Job Fair in June. In my current job, I am a Peer Trainer, so I not only train my employees, but I train employees at and above my level. In my current job, I feel I am a strong trainer because I am able to determine people's learning styles. By determining their style, I am able to train them in the way that they will learn more quickly. In tutoring, I would have the skills to determine how the child will learn the information. Some children might work better by watching someone else solve the problem while explaining the steps. Some might learn by just

While attending Mississippi State University I tutored 3-12 graders. I tutored them in mathematics, English, and science. It was quite rewarding for me to work with these students because I was able to see immediate results. Not only in their work but also in their behavior. I was able to provide each of my students with personal attention that was necessary in order for them to grow. In addition, it brought me joy knowing that I was helping someone; a child, to achieve their goal. Following graduation at Mississippi State I continued tutoring in English and other subjects as needed. I love teaching and working with children. I believe that with love and nuturing each child can reach their full potential. My goal is to determine each child's strengths and to build on them.
