I worked full-time for Okeechobee Eckerds Juvenile home for boys and the Polk County School District. In these positions, I was a reading teacher. I did work many years as a teacher, aide, and assistant that taught special needs learners to strengthen writing, math, and reading difficulties. Hence this gave me experience with many learning situations like one on one and whole group studious conditions. At all academic levels at Elmira College, I helped students to succeed at their scholarly endeavors. As a parent, I guided own daughters to be successful learners. This makes me an excellent candidate to help the next generation to be set on the pathway to thrive in their life vision. My teaching is guided by the needs of my learners; hence, I create learning by setting my students on their needs and interests to life-long academic endeavors. On this journey, I help to develop strategies

I hold a B.S. in Wildlife Biology and an M.S. in Environmental Biology. I entered college later in life and worked and paid my own way through. I have excellent writing skills and am proficient in nearly all areas of biological sciences. Specifically, I am well versed in the areas of taxonomy, evolutionary biology, and anatomy of both plants and animals. Though I am an easy going person, I am no nonsense when it comes to learning. I am non judgmental about a person's ability to learn, only their dedication and willingness. I believe anyone can excell in any subject, if they simply have the will to do so.

I have always been driven to succeed, especially in school. I graduated magna cum laude with my BA in Communication this past December. This degree increased my own ability to communicate effectively and I am now pursuing a BA in English this Fall so that I can teach high school English. I am fortunate in that I have done well in all of my general education classes, making me confident in my ability to tutor algebra I and II, geometry, chemistry, biology, earth science, and of course English, whether it be writing, reading, or grammar. This past year I have been tutoring Algebra, as well as basic math skills in order to catch my students up to their current grade level. I have worked with children for what seems like my whole life, mostly through church. I know that every child can succeed with the right help. I myself am caring, compassionate, patient, and encouraging. I believe that my

I chose the teaching profession because I wanted to be a positive adult male role model for students. I believe all kids can learn and can achieve academic success with a teacher who is patient and supportive to their needs. I have a systematic approach to teaching; I have found that when ideas and concepts are "broken down" and explained step by step, students have an easier time understanding and grasping those ideas. I also believe that the key to academic success lies in developing essential skills; such as, note taking skills, organization skills, and test preparation skills. I am a 2010 graduate of the Teacher Immersion Program (TIP) from Florida Gulf Coast University. I have my Florida Teaching Certificate and am Florida certified in Math (Middle Grades 5-9) and Elementary Ed. K-6. I have experience volunteering in intensive/ESE math classes (grades 6-10) and a 9th grade Algebra I

I have been working with children for 10 years and absolutely enjoy it. My belief is that all students can succeed when given the chance. During my pre test I assess the student and observe to implement the best tutoring tactic for each and every child. All children are different and special in each and every way. The best reward in tutoring is to see the student being tutored academically succeed. When tutoring not only does the tutor need to know the material being taught but also be able to communicate well with the child and bond in order to get across and be effective. Another important thing is to communicate with the parents and the teachers regularly to that the areas in need are being reinforced in all aspects.

Students should be taught as individuals based on their particular learning styles. People learn at their own rate. My philosophy is that all students can be successful if taught by a caring qualified teacher in a positive learning environment. I thoroughly enjoy the challenges of teaching. My reward comes when my students are successful in learning and develop positive self-esteems towards learning. I am certified to teach both math and reading in Florida. I am particularly strong in helping students to understand the basics. I became a teacher because I feel that I can make a positive difference in my students' lives while providing them quality instruction from a teacher who truly cares. My last teaching assignments were in preparing high risk students to pass the FCAT and the GED. My students exhibited a ninety-seven percent pass rate on both tests upon passing my class.
