As a life long learner, I have committed myself to the field of Education. Teaching is my passion and it empowers me to share my education, training and experiences with students. In addition to my Bachelor of Arts in History and Graduate level classes in Education, I am a graduate of the Educator Preparation Institute at Indian River State College.I have had extensive training in reading, curriculum development, psychology and technology. Over the past four years I have also worked as a Title I tutor teaching Reading and Math to elementary school children. Each and every student is capable of success, no exceptions.No two students are alike; therefore, they do not learn the same way. Consequently, it is up to the teacher to explore what works best with each child in order to lead them on their path of academic success. I am passionate about teaching and I believe in learning through doi

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 in the use of proper grammer. 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

Learning is not only important but it is a gift that enables you to reach beyond your boundaries. I have earned a BS in political science from Florida State University and a MS in mental health counseling from Nova Southeastern University.

I have taught in a Montessori setting, interned as a play therapist, and recentlty taught 5th grade for Miami Dade County Public Schools. I am professionally certified to teach in Florida and completed the EPI program last spring. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring in order to help students reach their full potential. Every child deserves the opportunity to learn and become successful in the classroom! Teaching is not only an honor but it is the best job I could ask for.

I love to interact with somebody who is curious and interested in the subject, no matter what the subject. In mathematics, I believe in a very thorough and conceptual understanding of the subject, which enhances one's ability to use the knowledge in real-world settings, not just memorization of formulae and equations. Understanding, rather than memorization, is also crucial for the student who will continue to learn more advanced subjects in mathematics. At my undergraduate program, my professor for a course in Symbolic Logic asked to refer students in the class to me, if they had questions about the material. After the class had finished, the professor hired me through the university's Philosophy Department as a tutor for the same class. After graduation, I acted as a private tutor in my spare time. At Columbia University I was a Teaching Assistant for three college courses, giving

I enjoy teaching and working with teenagers. My work as a mediator was essentially a teaching process about the nature of mediation and what it could provide to people in litigation. I am well prepared to deal with young people of all levels of intelligence and skill. I am very patient, easy going, and considerate. My mediation work has forced me to deal with all different kinds of people, something that comes naturally to me. I want to make a difference in my students' lives. I want them to remember me as a teacher who really cared and really exerted himself to help them on their way. I have been a full-time certified Florida mediator in family and circuit civil cases since 1988. I meet with people who are divorcing or otherwise suing each other and persuade them, if I can, to settle their differences.

I love to teach and want to make a different in all of my student's lives. I am a good listener and good communicator. I feel it is very important to listen to all your students. I believe in teaching all my students by strategies that are best for each individual student. Most of my students learn best visually. The objective in the classroom is to provide an environment in which the student is encouraged to learn and to achieve experience, growth, and development. A positive self-concept should be instilled in each student as he/she acquires career and technical knowledge. An important role of the teacher is to teach academic, personal, and social responsibility so students may realize that they can be positive contributors to the school, community and nation. A classroom discipline plan should be in place from the beginning of the school year to encourage desired behaviors. My

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

The two main philosophies I try to live my life by are giving back more than what has been given to me, and always leave something in better condition then I found it. Life has not always been an easy road, but through hard work and determination I have risen above any adversity life has presented. I believe the juxtaposition of these philosophies with the leadership skills acquired through my years as a merchant mariner will help me reach my full potential as an educator. My qualifications include but are not limited to a United States Coast Guard Licensed Master Captain, Condominium President of a one hundred and sixty unit beach side complex in Cape Canaveral Florida, and a coach of a sixth through tenth grade hockey team. The students of today will be the first generation to collaborate on a global scale and it will be necessary that they have an understanding of cultures other than

I have worked within schools for the past six years. I also completed two student teaching requirements for my state certification. I have worked in schools both in Pennsylvania and in Florida in a volunteer capacity within the classroom. I have worked both with groups of students on projects, as well as with individuals who required more personalized instruction to meet their needs. I believe in using all the resources available in order to be an effective teacher. Each student is individual and requires a different approach to learning. I believe it is imperative to address all the learing styles of your students. The key to teaching is the ability to interpret your students and tailor your teaching style to meet their needs.

I enjoy working with ESOL students of all ages. I have a communicative approach to learning. I feel it is important for a student to actually use the skills he or she is learning in communicating with others. I believe in order to teach effectively a teacher must find out the students' learning styles. All students can learn if their individual needs are focused on.

I hold a BA in Psychology and have also completed pre-medical requirements during my time as an undergraduate.

Over the past year, I have tutored students in reading, math, and science. I believe in the potential of every child and am committed to their academic achievement.
