After graduating from Florida State University, I received a job at DISC Village in Tallahassee Florida as a Prevention Counselor in the Beta program. This program was school-based and involved working with at-risk middle school students at Wakulla Middle School. My duties included instructing 12-26 students in 6th-8th grade in social skills, behavior improvement, drug prevention, and study groups/tutoring sessions.

I am a firm believer in that every child can succeed in whatever they strive for if they are given proper instruction. Even difficult learners can succeed if the proper teaching methods are employed. Different students have different stimuli that they respond to. There is no one cookie cutter mold for teaching. After all, each student is an individual and responds in their own way. The challenge for the teacher is to find the most efficient way to engage and motivate the student to genuinely want to learn and succeed. I have been teaching for the last 8 years. I have a Bachelors of Science Degree from Greensboro College in North Carolina. I am Florida certified in Exceptional Student Education and Middle Grades Integrated curriculum. I am currently teaching Science, Math, Life Skills and Social Personal Skills. I have a great deal of teaching children who have difficulties grasp

I'm a researcher and educator. I earned a Bachelors and a Masters degree in Physics Hons. After graduating, I taught Physics, Mathematics and Science to high school, college and graduate students. My teaching experience was so rewarding that I won various awards. It also inspired me to pursue higher studies and I started my degree in Physical Oceanography at Florida State University. For the past 7 years I have been teaching, mentoring and helping students with Physics, Mathematics, Science and English. I adopt a simplistic yet effective 2 level approach. At the first level, I make sure that the concepts are crystal clear to my students and and at the second level I train my students to be competitive exam takers. Such an approach provides conceptual clarity as well as practical understanding of the subject.

I thoroughly enjoy working with children and watching them discover new things. I am especially passionate about making science approachable and enjoyable for everyone. I am very relaxed and patient in my approach, and believe learning is best acheived through hands on, individually paced experience. I have spent many years as a student and feel I understand how to be a successful learner. In turn, I am eager to help others achieve academic success and gain experience as an educator. While I have not had a great deal of formal teaching experience, as an undergraduate I had the opportunity to tutor fellow students in biology and serve as a laboratory teaching assistant. I have also worked as a collegiate athletic coach, where I was able to foster teaching skills and develop and implement original daily learning plans.

I am a firm believer that one must want to learn in order to be taught. That "want" can be learned over time, and the desire to pass on knowledge and be caring, considerate, and nurturing is part of my makeup. I really love hanging out with kids and seeing the beautiful, innocent way that their minds work. I would love to play a role in making someones life better, and giving the start for productivity.Every child is like a blank slate, and the experiences they have early on make a huge difference. I have had much education, reading is one of my favorite things to do. Although I was a science major, I did teach throughout my masters degree. Teaching is never simple, there are so many things to learn. I do believe that I would be capable of teaching pretty much anything, and I am very good with children. I can provide any references that you will need.

To be able to teach takes time and patience as well as numerous other skills, I feel that I have the qualities to teach children ranging of all ages as well as older individuals. In my time working in a lab setting my goal was to teach an unknown skill to individuals. I feel that I was able to understand that each person learns at a different pace and with different strategies and this is important when trying to teach. I feel that with my patience, understanding, and knowledge of learning situations I can be that one person that helps that one child breakthrough and realize how a little more hard work can make all the difference. In the process of achieving a bachelors of Science degree in Psychology I spent time working in a lab as well as being a lead counselor in a private after school program. In the school, my duties ranged from helping with homework to planning structured activate

The thing I love most about teaching is opening up someones eyes to something new and seeing the "wow" look on their faces. Sometimes certain subject matter is not always easy for a person to learn. I've always appreciated the teacher that went out of their way with a great amount of patience to make sure I understood. I take a lot from the amazing teachers I've had and would hope to be able to pass that on. I began my higher education at Tallahassee Community College in 1997. After receiving my AA Degree I transferred to F.S.U where I majored in Criminology with a minor in Spanish and graduated in 2003. Since that time, I've worked as a legal assistant/paralegal with different law firms in town. Recently, I decided to return to school and received my certificate in Massage Therapy.

“You love what you understand and you understand what you are taught.” I believe learning should be fun and understandable. Many times, especially in science, students do not like a subject, because it is not explained in terms they understand. I believe the key is to relate any subject to something the students already understand/love. If a student needs help in math and they love M&M’s, then you can find an equation for the various colors in a bag of M&M’s or find the surface area of an M&M. Everything relates to everything, the connection just needs to be made. When a connection is made with previous knowledge there is a deeper understanding and you are less likely to forget what you have been taught. The key is to be creative and fun.

My last semester at FSU I internship with 1st grade students. I assisted students with areas they were struggled in and encouraged them to push themselves. I tutored several students in reading and writing skills. I also helped prepared students for their weekly math tests. By the end of the semester I took over teaching the class. Some classes in my major required me to do projects with children. As a volunteer, I participated this past year at camp Woe-Be-Gone. This is a one day camp that works with about 120 children, helping them learn at the museum of science and industry while understanding and coping with the illness or loss of loved one. In high school I volunteered with Best Buddies, allowing me to work with handicapped children. I also participated in TOPS as an assistant coach for handicapped children. I have also tutored children of friends of the family. Ever since I was
