A Little Bit About Me...

Hi there! I took ASL four years ago and fell in love. I have since taken ASL 1-4 and now am in my last semester of ASL Interpreting. I plan to continue my education and get a BS in interpreting starting Summer 2015. I have taken Deaf Culture, Linguistics, Educational Interpreting, Special Setting Interpreting, and Businesses Ethics in Interpreting. I have all of my textbooks from over the years we can use to come up with a plan for studying. I always learned best by repetition. To memorize signs, it is best to use them in a sentence, so we will create short phrases to learn new vocabulary words.

A Little Bit About Me...

I will be graduating from UF this fall semester with a degree in marketing and mass communication. Although I am young, I have had some experience in teaching, as I have worked as a tutor during the summer. I have also served as a tutor at the University of Florida in all math related topics. I truly enjoy working with people of all ages and I am a registered substitute teacher. I have always been a diligent student, as my transcript can attest, and I have a passion for teaching anyone, especially in the areas of mathematics, economics, English, and writing.
My teaching style embodies a combination of individualism and structure. Before I teach any subject, I dissect the topic to get to the fundamental root that may cause difficulties in learning. I break down the problem into a simple nature so that students can understand the logical reasoning of how to solve any problem. I be ... read more

Because I learn best from application and hands-on problem solving, I incorporate games, diagrams, metaphors and stories into my teaching. I am patient, fun, and organized. I enjoy leading an individual to discover not only the answer, but also the method to solve similar problems. I believe study skills and time management are the keys to academic success and strive to help my students develop habits that will carry them through the future.
I will graduate from the University of Florida in April 2010 with a BA in Biology, which required me to take up to Calculus 1 as well as Analytical Chemistry and Physiology classes. I have excelled in courses requiring numerical analysis and have experience teaching and tutoring, both in academics and athletics. Over the past 7 years, I have tutored peers in College Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, and have gi ... read more

Teaching is important to every individual no matter what age. The learning experience is never-ending. Children are very important to me as they are the future. Also if it weren't for my wonderful teachers I would have hated the academic process. It is important to note that no matter how far a student is behind nor how hard it is to recognize concepts I am beyond patient when explaining ideas and concepts. The personal approach is the most formative for an individual. When teaching elementary students it is important to in a stress free quiet environment where a student can be open to asking questions. I would identify specific students needs and formulate a stimulating and constructive approach to ensure their capabilities as students.
Although my undergrad degree is not the most prevailing, I have strong abilities in math. I have tutored many individuals throughout my life. My e ... read more

I love seeing people understand something once I explain it to them in a way that they can understand it. I also love working with kids and teenagers because I believe that if we have a positive influence on young people they will grow up to be the leaders that our nation needs. My teaching style is geared at making people think. Students don't learn when they are spoon fed their education but when they are lead in the correct direction.
I am currently enrolled in the graduate engineering program at the University of Florida, in which I plan to graduate in the spring of 2012. I enjoy working with people and I have a strong background in numerical analysis. I have taken the GRE, ACT, and the SAT. Scores were high above the national average for math and at about the average for the written portion. I do have experience in writing research papers and laboratory reports, all in the fie ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught preschool education 2-4 years old. While I have not worked with school age students I have taken several college courses on elementary education and volunteered in several different grade school classes. Along with these experiences I have a bachelors degree in Human development which would help me understand the level of comprehension and ways to communicate concrete and complex ideas to children.
I believe that tutoring is a great way to assist teachers. The reason I say this is because teachers often have many children in their classes and as a tutor I would be able to work one on one with a child who might need a little extra attention. I also thing that when children are given a chance to grasp difficult ideas they gain self confidence and become encouraged to persevere. I also believe that children can learn to love learning, and a child who is given the chance ... read more

I love mentoring and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but they all have different learning styles (auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic). Also, learning must be relevant to each student. For example, using sports statistics to teach math. I am patient, easy going, and fun. I am a firm believer in teaching through self-discovery and in providing an open approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and have support both in and out of the home.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and I have a Master's degree in Family, Youth and Community Science, with a focus on youth and community development. I was a substitute teacher in the Atlanta area for one year which gave me the chance to mentor and tutor several high school students in math. I have worked with kids through v ... read more

I have attended CFCC and FCCJ. I am currently attending Liberty University for my Bachelor in Education. I have been teaching for about 7 years and through that time I have learned an extensive amount not only through in-services and training classes, but through my colleagues. I feel very confident in my ability to reach children that feel that they just can't get it. I have two children of my own, which I homeschooled for a year. My daughter, who is 13 years old, has Dyslexia and short term memory processing issues. I have learned so much just by teaching and tutoring her. I have taught K-3 thru 8th grade. I have tutored k-5 thru 12th grade in Reading and phonics.
I feel very strongly about a differential approach to my teaching methods. I believe every child is different and learns differently then the next child. I feel confident in developing a lesson plan that can be diverse ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a teenager, I learned the importance of having role models, both in and out of the classroom. Some of my biggest influences are old teachers and coaches. After I graduated high school, I attended the University of Florida, where I majored in Telecommunications, and had an outside study in English. This led me to substitute in Marion County for a year. After one year of subbing, I decided I wanted to enrich the lives of adolescents full-time. I became a teacher at my former high school, Vanguard, where I stayed for two years. I taught twelfth grade English, and then turned to teaching Intensive Reading to sophomores.
Enriching the lives of today’s youth is something very dear to my heart. With the hustle and bustle of our fast-paced world, it gets hard for them to find out who they are, and focus on what they need to be doing. I feel they push their education to the side, because ... read more

I love teaching and working with children. I believe for my experience that all kids can learn but in their own ways and time. This means that there are approximately three kinds of learning: visually (visual things help this kind of children to learn better like drawings or putting color to difference things), auditory (this ones like to learn having backgrounds of sounds. It could be either with music, songs, etc). I'm a very peaceful but right person who loves to see kids grow in every way. I am patient, easy ongoing and considerate. I believe that a few good educators can make a difference not only in your child's life but in the whole world.
