I have been a teacher/professor and Dean of a University for 15 years. I got my BS in Life Sciences and one year of MS in Molecular Genetics. I continued on to get my MBA. I have taught English, Math, Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Terminology, Business courses and other science courses. There are so many different teaching styles and learning styles. As a tutor the teaching style is going to be dependent on the student's learning style. Not everyone can teach. As a Dean, I had to interview many potential instructors. I believe that a teacher needs to be caring, compassionate and encourage students at all times. I have these qualities and my students can vouch for that.

Not all people learn in the same manner. It's important to recognize clues that identify preferred learning styles and incorporate lesson plans accordingly. I believe in breaking things into its simplest form using analogies to help with learning and retention. I believe it is not only important to teach the curriculum, but to also relate the benefits of learning into (age appropriate) real-life lessons. For example, it is important for a high school student to know what to expect on their first job and how to make the transition from high school to college. Knowledge is powerful and is one of the greatest gifts we can share. I want to make a difference in the lives of children and young people.

It is my experience that learners, especially children, learn best in activity-based educational environments, especially those in which the learner (rather than the instructor) is the focal point of the program. My most important and relevant talent as a tutor has been my ability to allow learners to discover for themselves their own innate ability to acquire the necessary skill-sets to help them succeed. I have a diverse academic background running the gamut from English to International Business. In all instances, my academic programs were writing and research intensive by virtue of the degree requirements (English) or by virtue of the complex nature of the field (business). My current professional position is a Research Editor for a business intelligence publisher (www.csgis.com). On a daily basis I apply strict writing and composition principles as well as design and implement ne

I am a very patient and understanding person. I first will talk to the person to find out where they are having trouble and begin there. Find out what they are understanding and where they are having trouble. My approach is visual. With accounting it is easier to get the concepts when it is shown on a black board or up on a screen.

The art of teaching consists of identifying a person's needs, previous experience related to a subject, in order to be able to assist the person by building on previous knowledge in ways that make the process meaningful and interesting for both the teacher and the student. My three BS degrees are in Accounting, Business Administration and Economics, in addition to a Post Graduate degree in Accounting (with concentration in Controllership). This has led me to dedicate my life to teaching and tutoring business subjects such as accounting, statistics, English (ESOL and ESL), Spanish, marketing, finance and economics.

I have a background in chld development, so I feel I can tailor lesson plans that are age-appropriate.

When I discovered how much I enjoy teaching I prepared myself to launch a second career. I earned a second degree and have almost completed my M.A. in History at USF. along the way, I have taught Latin and History to a wide variety of students from the sixth grade to college students. Throughout high school and college I have studied languages such as Spanish, French, Latin, and Classical Greek. Along with teaching a foreign language I have taught English since the study of any foreign language involves teaching the native language. From my experience writing almost two dozen research papers in my graduate studies at USF, I have practiced academic writing and can instruct students in the skills of research and writing as well as reading comprehension. I feel that I am an empathetic teacher yet I hold my students to high standards of accomplishment. I try to bring a variety of materials t

All children can learn if properly motivated. I use a modified socratic method of teaching, engaging the child in a dialogue about the subject matter. We explore together using books and the internet to find answers. All of my students improved in their school work in a dramatic fashion. Some saw their grades jump as much as 60%. After 33 years of trial law, I decided to teach full time. I have taught various classes off and on since 1972. I have tutored students for the last two years, including 15 middle school english and math students this last year in Hernando County. I also helped these students with science, geography, and social sciences. I now live in Tampa.

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. Patience is vital when teaching something new and to be one of my biggest strengths. I will do everything possible to ensure that your child excels. I am also willing to work with different cultures respecting all aspects of the same. 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. In the years that have followed, I have had the pleasure of teaching/tutoring children and young people in the core academic subjects as well as diverse areas such as dance, language arts, etiquette, personal hygiene, self-esteem, and job skills.
