I have been teaching in the homeschool community for about 10 years. I have learn many skills on how to handle different classroom situations. I tautht cross county, physical education, critical thinking skills, sewing, and all the other core courses. I volunteered in a local private school to assist when they would need me. As of this October I started teaching at a local tutoring center. Currently, I am teaching on a "on call basis" at a local college. My philiosphy is to motivate through praise. I believe in speaking words of encouragement to the students. I have seen positive words manifest into good results for the students. I do believe in teaching because as a mother this is one of the skills I know I had to dominate in order assist my own child to become a better citizen. I realize that what one deposits in this young generation we will reap as senior citizens. Therefore

I believe in the potential of every child and am committed to their academic achievement. Through my work with children and adults with disabilities, I have learned patience and understanding; qualities that I believe make me a strong educator. I believe in modeling a learning curriculum to meet the specific needs of a child and pride myself on finding novel ways to make education fun and interesting. The best part of education, to me, is the opportunity that lies in every learning experience. Throughout my educational career, I have gained a strong foundation of knowledge in various disciplines. I hold a BA in Psychology and have also completed pre-medical requirements during my time as an undergraduate. My liberal arts background has led me to develop extensive reading, writing, and analytical skills. These skills are complemented by a solid understanding of mathematics and scienc

The most important part of teaching is to teach students the principle or concept behind a subject. I do not believe in making students memorize absurdly large lists of facts in order to pass a test. Learning should be more fundamental than that. When a student has been successfully taught something, the student should be able to solve an array of problems with a common theme. At college I worked as a tutor for two years in the areas of chemistry and mathematics. I earned BA's in chemistry and biochemistry and have some laboratory experience. Having been educated at a liberal arts school has also given me the opportunity to study philosophy and sociology. I also write well, as writing is emphasized in all disciplines of study at Knox. Previous to my college education, I was also active in my tutoring program in high school.

As a teacher, I realize many students need exra help to comprehend their course material. I enjoy giving that extra help and working with the student to determine which style of learning best suites them. It is possible for every student to succeed. It is my goal not only to have the student understand the material but to enjoy the process. I explain and show the concepts to the student in a clear easy to understand way. I encourage my students to participate in the learning process. My greatest joy is to see the light in a student's eyes when they "Get it". As a private school teacher I hav taught all the math,science, and history courses at the middle and high school level. I have also tutored college Algebra and Trigonometry. Math is the subject I love teaching the most. I am very proficient in teaching all levels of math,science and history. I also have experience in teaching grade

There is no greater joy than imparting knowledge to our future generations. I believe children’s minds are like sponges and readily accept a great amount of knowledge. It is my goal to assist them in soaking up information and forming a solid foundation for their future. I approach learning in several different ways as every child’s needs are unique. I hope to encourage children to truly understand information and relate it to everyday life. Once a child can relate what they are learning it reinforces the importance of a good education. I look forward to seeing a student's face when they finally understand something they previously had trouble with. At the University of Central Florida I attended the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences. There, I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Molecular and Microbiology. My focus was primarily science based classes therefore, I have gre

After graduating 12th in my high school class, I decided that I wanted to continue on with my formal education. With one year of college under my belt, I continued to finish my AA degree and will be receiving my BS degree in Education in Secondary Biology in December of 2010. During college, I worked in the office of the Vice President of the college where I gained office and technology skills. I spent two semesters tutoring in the tutoring lab at Indian River State College in which I tutored students ranging from grades 7-12 in reading, math and science. I have always loved education. I believe that education should consist of not only textbooks and facts, but should be about understanding life and how we fit into society. I believe the most important parts of teaching are being a guide for students, teaching them how to flourish in the world around them, inspiring inquiry and creativit

As I indicated, I have a B.A.in Philosophy and later studies in Art. Later, in 1975, I decided to return to obtain a DMD at BU. After that I joined the Army and served as an Army dentist. Due to events in my life following my brief sojourn in the Army, I traveled abroad to India and Asia. Upon returning, I continued to study, but this time in more spiritual matters. I currently live with my daughter and 3 grandchildren and we have a small family registered daycare. I also participate with the children. However, I do spend a few hours a day writing and I am also a webmaster. Of the essence in tutoring is to make the subject pertinent and fun, as well as applicable to everyday life. For small children, we have phonetics to help the child master sounds and words. I do use Ipod teaching games to involve the child actively. Obviously for older children, who may have trouble expressing them

I've worked as an environmental scientist for the past 15 years. I have a B.S. Biology/Limnology and completed General Chemistry I and II, Organic Chemistry I and II, Biochemistry. I have many years of experience related to preparing scientific reports. I enjoy tutoring. I enjoy sharing what I know and have learned with others. I have a 7 year old son and believe patience is a valuable characteristic of mine. I'm also very easing going and get along well with most people. When tutoring, I first attempt to help someone understand a subject especially chemistry as structured in the text book but whenever possible, if the situation requires, I will try to simplify the subject in any way possible until the student makes it over the hump and then the text version usually becomes more clear.

I teach through experiential and structured behavioral techniques. I find the experiential component exciting for the youger students and I obtain good learning outcomes combining it with structured content information and social and other incentives. I recognize the first step in the instructional process is to establish rapport and a positve relationship with the student and to identify the best learning modality for a particular student. Sometimes friendly games involving the demonstration of skills or knowledge is very beneficial. I have been an instructor at California State University for 2 1/2 years (Turlock, Ca.)I was adjunct faculty at Florida Institute of Technology for 1 year, I worked for Extended Education at California State University (Turlock, Ca.)I was program instructor for The Behavioral Achievement Center in Minneapolis, Mn. for 4 years (developmentally delayed adult

I am a recent University of Central Florida graduate and have a passion for helping others learn. While earning my BS in Biology, I tutored other students in Anatomy, Physiology, Physics, Calculus and most Biology courses. I am a patient person and teacher. I believe in letting the student think through the problems themselves. And if they need help, I am there for them. But I do not like to simply give them the answer. I want them to learn that they had the knowledge, they just needed to learn how to extrapolate it.

My educational philosophy is based on the Socratic approach that uses questions instead of answers to foster deeper learning in students. In order to pose relevant and meaningful questions, I make use of engaged lecture and active learning. Since students have a variety of learning styles, I incorporate visual, auditory, and tactile techniques into lessons. I enjoy exploring effective techniques to increase students’ understanding and excitement of biology, including using my students to interactively represent protein folding. I hope to motivate my students through my own enthusiasm. Additionally, I find that addressing the big picture of each lesson is of utmost importance to facilitate a deep understanding of the material. As an undergraduate, I served as service chair of a biology honor fraternity. In this role, I shifted our service focus from general service projects to science-spe

Being a high school dual-enrolled college student and successfully graduating Summa Cum Laude with my Bachelor’s of Science in Biochemistry from East Carolina University in only three years demonstrates my passion for a higher education. I have been a tutor to my peers in collegiate level classes, as well as a mentor for my 13-year-old sister. I have an extensive Science and Mathematics background as well as a strong passion towards English. Having won many state Math and Science fairs since I was in third grade laid down a strong platform towards efficient study skills and learning styles that enabled me to excel in my educational endeavors. I love being able to spread my knowledge to aid in one's understandings of a subject. I believe there are countless variations in the way one learns a particular subject.
