As a graduate of a private liberal arts college, I was educated in English and multi-cultural literature. As a reflection of what I was learning, I became interested in participating in the literary tradition, and began to take creative writing very seriously. I developed a passion for both poetry and literature and wish to share it with my students. I have tutored English, writing, history, ecology, and screenwriting. My passion for language and literature drives my desire to teach; I love to share everything from a basic grammar lesson to an in-depth, critical exegesis of a foreign novel. I strive to provide an individual-based educational experience for each child. I draw on each student's strengths and weaknesses to tailor each lesson. As the poet Stanley Kunitz once wrote, "live in the layers / not on the litter."

My teaching style is based on; first instilling in the student that they "can" learn and there is nothing they cannot achieve. I teach them through building on successes and the skills they already know, then introduce new skills and practice applying them to real life situations where this step allows the students to see the relevancy of what they are doing. I believe in providing a multitude of verbal praise for each step of learning. I believe in encouraging students to ask questions and not be afraid to say for the one hundreth time, "I dont get it". My work experience over the last 25 years has been a variety of private tutoring, public schools, and a residential treatment center. I have experience working with all ages of children from kindergarten to college level. I specialize in teaching children with learning disabilites, or students who seem to struggle with learning new s

As a undergraduate my main focus was interpersonal and intercultural communications. I tutored at a local high school for two years in many different subjects, especially math and english. I spent two years living in a francophone country in Africa and also have two years classwork in french as well. I enjoy teaching and more importantly I love helping others. I am patient, easy going and understanding. I understand that learning is a process and is not the same for everyone. Some people response better to different forms of teaching than others and that is one of the major challenges teachers face. I work well with youth and enjoy challenging myself and trying new teaching methods because any student can learn. Any student can succeed.

Throughout high school and college, I've always excelled in my school work. I was president of the math club and often tutored my peers during my spare time. The University of Florida has provided me with a well rounded education, and I feel myself knowledgable in many areas, from languages like french, spanish and hindi, to the sciences like chemistry, biology, and physics. I'm also very familiar with writing term papers. I like to teach by example and immersion. So much of what schools preach today is rote memorization, and to a certain degree, this cannot be avoided. But whenever possible, I like to try and find real world applications and demonstrations to get my lessons across to my pupil.

I have taught many subjects and sports throughout my life. I have always enjoyed teaching. My tutoring results are mirrored in the grades of my students. I usually assess the present situation, attempt to bring the student current, then cover material expected for the grade level that may have been missed. A good basic knowledge and ongoing supervision with attention to student organization provides lasting results. I spent 6 years tutoring my children who were ESE and ADHD and have been tutoring others for a year. My students range from first grade through college in mathematics and grades 1-8 in all subjects and preparation for FCAT, SAT, ACT. I have a BS in Mathematics with a minor in physics and and AAS in data processing. I use a variety of methods to teach effectively.

I love learning and teaching. I believe everyone is capable of learning but in different ways. Individuals all have different learning styles. I believe all children are capable of learning and I will provide a trusting, secure environment where I encourage critical thinking. I believe in learning through discovery and various learning activities that encourages the student to want to learn more. I hope to make my students love to learn as much as I do.

I have a passion for teaching, and that is the way I teach! I am a high-energy instructor who encourages children to not only reach their goals, but to also readily accept the next challenge as well. I do not teach "at" my students...instead, I teach with them, keeping them engaged and interested in the material...and wanting to learn more! I take a sincere interest in each and every one of my students, and feel that teaching extends far beyond the academics...I essentially make a positive difference in a child's life as their instructor, and knowing that is consistently my greatest reward. . Having taught and tutored Honors English for both the private and public sector on the elementary, middle, high school, and college level, I am a dynamic enthusiastic instructor with a results-driven mindset.
