Over the years (as undergrad and graduate), I have tutored middle school and elementary age students in various subjects. I have also been a resource for undergrad and graduate health science students while serving as a graduate assistant (public health master's program). I proctored exams and held tutoring and review sessions prior to testing. I have two master's degrees, three undergraduate degrees, and experience as a paramedic, nurse, and substitute teacher. I believe in completing an individual needs assessment and designing a study approach around that assessment. I believe in constant reinforcement and reassessment. I also believe it is useful to utilize as many and as varied forms of instruction as possible (written, audio-visual, demonstration, etc.) to solidify a concept. Promoting thorough understanding rather than route memory and recognition skills is paramount.

Everyone's teaching style is an accumulation of the teachers they have met. My favorite teachers were tough, they pushed me to do my best, and encouraged me to draft, edit, and to have high expectations for myself. Their goals were realistic, and relevant. As teacher, I want to give each student an advantage, over other students. I believe that writing and reading may be the most important thing a child can learn, but more importantly love and continue to do throughout their life. I am patient, flexible, and motivated. I strive to make the difference. My teaching experience began in high school, when I would review and edit my classmates essays. On several occasions, I also went through essays line by line. In addition, I taught swim lessons to preschool aged children, and helped coach crew to high school aged students. Throughout college, I continued to aid my peers with the

I have experience in working with children and young people in my missions and humanitarian work. I have lead teams of teenagers and worked with children in local schools, orphanages, and community organizations. I also worked at a daycare during my internship in 2004. Everyone is special and unique in how they learn and incorporate new information. I like to get to know people to understand how they can learn on their skill level. Patience and understanding is key when working with students and young people because everyone is different and special.

I like to see what works for each person since everyone has their own way of learning. Then, I use whatever works best for them. Making students comfortable is important since they're more open to learn in that environment. As I was taking college courses, I also taught swimming lessons, after earning the ARC Lifeguard and WSI certificates. I also tutored grade school children during college in basic subjects. In college I also tutored other college students in basic English, as my major was communication and I have a fairly strong command of English. I also have experience in the newspaper industry and thoroughly enjoy helping people. I completed my BA in 2002.

The best teachers that I've had and that have made the deepest impressions on me have been kind, generous with their time and understanding, as well as observant. In my experience this has been the type of educator that I've tried to be. I feel that teaching is an exchange. Just as I have information to pass on I know that students do as well. Teaching is the highest of symbiotic relationships. Children have such a unique and simplified way of looking at things I feel as if I have the opportunity to learn something as well. Who knows if you will be that teacher that makes a profound difference in a student's life. We must approach each student as a chance to make a difference. From a young age I've always been interested in helping those less fortunate than myself. I've been a mentor, a tutor, a Peace Corps volunteer, and I've also worked as a Hospice volunteer.

I am a firm beliver that all children can learn. Some children learn using different learning styles, but they all have the ability to learn. Through my teaching experiences, I have learned to teach according to each students learning ability as well as level in order to reach their maximum potential. Upon graduation from Florida A&M University, where I received my BA and Masters in Elementary Education, I have worked with students in the education field on various levels. I have taught for twelve years and also supervised a tutorial program as well as tutored in Reading and Math.

I believe that each child has a unique learning style or motivation trigger and it is the teacher or tutor's job to find what will encourage the child to learn. I desire to teach children but also to help them learn how to teach themselves. Prior to my relocation to the Jacksonville, Florida area I had completed my undergraduate degree and was working toward my Masters in Education for Middle School. During this period, I interned at a middle school and had worked as a substitute teacher. I have also worked in management and training.

Since high school, my passion for telling stories led me to my degree in Journalism. I worked as a professional news reporter for two medium market stations and was on my way to work for a larger market. My career took a turn for the better and I found my calling was education. I have always coached and been a choreographer, so working with children and helping them succeed was also a passion. I hope to utilize my skills in writing and communications, as well as my discipline and focus skills I acquired in band, cheer and dance, to help students succeed. My teaching style is very hands-on. I believe in practical knowledge and showing students several different ways to understand something. I also believe in providing students the opportunity to figure out solutions to problems on their own with encouragement, instead of just having them copy what I say. I also believe that all lea

I believe that not all children learn the same. Therefore we as educators can not teach the same. As a special education teacher I hope to motivate and encourange students to ascertain their inner strength and abilities. I aim to provide a stimulating and innovative learning environment that inspires student to trust their own abilities while fostering confidence in order to realize their full potential. I have found the method of facilitating and consulting to be the most beneficial style of teaching. Stimulating cooperative grouping promotes healthy competition and learning. After ten and a half years in the cooporate world I decided to change career paths, and teaching was my first choice. I received my bachelor degree in Office Admininstration management and later found what I really liked to do was teach children. I enrolled in an excellorated teaching program while substituting in

I love teaching and working with children. I am patient and easy going. I believe that all children can learn. I just have to find their learning style and what motivates them. I believe in using a mixed teaching method. I try to gear my teaching to how the child learns. I also believe in testing to see where the child is at so that I know where I can drive instruction. I will do my best to reach and make a difference in the life of a child. If you like what you've read please call me. I have fifteen years experience in education. I am very much driven to see my students succeed. I have taught English from Kindergarten to Twelfth grade. I have also taught reading, math, science and social studies.

As a graduate of Jacksonville University, I feel I received an excellent education and want to give back to the community. There is not enough emphasis placed on education as it was during my growing up years. I fear that the focus has turned and it is centered on sports not academics. I feel there can be a happy medium reach in which students can get and experience the best of both worlds. I achieved in sports and academics but I made it my mission and promise to myself to graduate with honors. There is a whole world out there to learn about through education and if the learning process is done where the child is both motivated and shows a definite interest, it becomes a win-win situation. I like to teach using everyday life experiences and things that are relative to the tutee. One can read MacBeth and other writers from the past and still be motivated to learn. I don't believe

Recent teaching experience has been at an Urban school during the 1006-2007 school year. However, throughout my profesional work experience, I have been teaching. Whether it is orienting new employees, training staff or collaborating with managers to design and implement programs and services, I have always been in the teaching profession and hope to continue in that profession tutoring and teaching. Socratic method that engages young minds is my preferred teaching style. As a Social Studies teacher, identified student's learning preference and designed lesson plans integrating learning styles. Students could use their artistic abilities to complete work and others could draw upon their writing skills to demonstrate mastery of concepts. In Social Work, we were taught to meet our clients "where they are". And, I will continue to do just that; meeting students where they are to unders
