German Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Wabasso, FL

I believe that all subjects, especially math and the sciences are based on a core of basic fundamentals. I believe that until the fundamentals are understood that it is not possible to advance to the higher aspects of any subject. I enjoy teaching very much and believe that I have much to give back to young students. I am convinced that a good education is vital to becoming a constructive and well rounded adult citizen. I have a Bachelors Degree in Electrical Engineering, and as such I am certified to teach all sciences and math at all grade levels in the State of Florida. My specialties in math are Algebra and Trigonmetry; my specialty in science is Physics. I was a substitute teacher from 4/08 through 5/09 in the Indian River School District. I tutored part time at various levels for the last two years. My other areas of knowledge include History, Geography and English, especially i

Since my days as a graduate student, I love to learn, as both student and teacher. As teacher, I've taught Humanities at the Junior College level, teaching Fine Arts, Music, English literature and Philosophy. I've taught students to make connections, relationships, between what they see and hear. Sight and Sound, then, allow them to develop their thinking in ways that isolated thought or thought patterns preclude. I've learned the Humanities are wonderful resources for thinking, as they for developing 'intuitive imagination.' In addition to classroom teaching, I've tutored students in their homes, in environments that support love and freedom, using Calvert's Home School Program. I've developed tutorial pilot programs for the US Army, developing recruits mastery of High School Math and English skills. I love writing, research. I encourage students to relate among them

Teaching and showing are synonymous and in some languages it is the same word. I am not an instructor. As a teacher & educator my principal aim is to clarify objectives and show the student (client) how s/he can reach her/his goals. I facilitate the process profesionally as well as wholeheartedly. From a personal perspective, I feel good about what I do ONLY when it is validated by the student's satisfaction. Due to my extensive background in languages & cultures, I have been able to address individual learning and studying needs quickly, effectively, and definitively. As a multicultural linguist in the field of education, I have been on the forefront of curriculum design and I have presented at five TESOL conferences. Furthermore, my deep-structural understanding of a language's grammar allows me to analyze linguistic needs and perspectives inductively.

In John Dewey’s spirit, I would say that education occurs when an individual is stimulated by the social situations in which he finds himself, that the materials of education consist of the physical, moral, and intellectual resources that humanity has gathered together up to now, and that the product of education should be a person who has developed actions and feelings that promote and represent the welfare of the group to which he belongs. In that vein, a school should be primarily a social institution where a conglomerate of these resources are located and shared; however, education is a life-long process that can occur almost anywhere. I also highly respect the book "Teaching in the Tao" by Patrick Christie. I have served as an orientation counselor to incoming freshmen students, have tutored undergraduates with special needs, have taught undergraduate level university courses both

I am very patient and love the look on a learner’s face when everything finally “clicks.” I understand that every person has his or her own unique learning style and this should always be taken into consideration. I like to design ways of teaching that coincide with the current knowledge of the pupil as this helps to avoid frustration. I have had much experience in teaching specifically in the areas of social studies, English, German, reading comprehension, and k-6 math. I also hold a degree in anthropology with a minor in sociology and am, therefore, very proficient in these areas as well. Due to the immense amount of writing that I have done over the course of obtaining my degree, I am very skilled in this area as well.

I love teaching and working with adults. I believe everyone can learn as long as they want to and put their minds to it. I am available to help adults find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery. I believe adults can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate encouragement and learning experiences. A good educator can make a world of difference to an adult's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a New England college and University of FLorida graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree, BA in French with minor in German, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of language learning and acquisition. In addition, I have learned

My teaching style is a combination of humor, question and answer, life experience, and history. I treat my students as adults. I follow the road, but go with the flow; no battle plan survives the first shot. There are many paths to learning. I never assume mine is the only way. Teaching is as much about learning as it is teaching. I listen to what my students have to say, and respect the opinions they have. I value honesty and set an example by admitting what I don’t know. My job is to discover, inspire and develop wisdom. Every teacher has been surprised by some brilliant insight expressed by a "low" performing student. It happens everyday. I’m convinced every student has a particular wisdom we just have to find, and encourage it. I've been a full time substitute teacher in the Martin County School District since 2007. During 2008-2009, I was a permanent substitute at Stuart Middle S
