I have worked in an ESE classroom teaching math and science to 4th and 5th grade students. I have also had many other practicum experiences in schools and have worked with students as a whole group, small group, and individually. I have strong curriculum knowledge, am caring and patient, and love working with students.
I like to motivate my students by providing background knowledge and examples of application in the world outside of textbooks. I think it is important for students to create an emotional experience to ensure that knowledge will be stored. I implore traditional methods, as well as research-based approaches that connect to students audio, visual, or kinesthetic learning styles. I am dedicated and patient and make it my responsibility to find the way each individual student learns and absorbs information.

I like to challenge my students to reach their potential. I realize there is a fine line between challenging and frustrating my students. I like for my students to figure out math problems on their own as much as possible. My teaching style is to model new material, do guided practice, and independent practice. Hopefully by the time they finish this process they have mastered the particular lesson.
I decided at the age of 38 to attend college and earn my BA of Education degree. I have worked with and coached young people most of my life on a volunteer basis. Teaching has always been one of my passions. I have worked with students with learning disabilities in my eleven years of teaching. I have taught all the core subjects from grades 3-12. My favorite subject to teach/tutor is math. I enjoy seeing my students progress in their learning.

In my doctoral program, I am specializing in working with students with special needs and disabilities. Therefore, I strongly believe that every child can learn, but I realize that different children learn in different ways. I have learned and have experience implementing strategies and techniques to enable children to learn. I am very patient, easy going, and considerate, and my goal is to always provide children with the best education possible.
I first began my love of teaching and tutoring children when I was a senior in high school. As the president of my school's National Honor Society, I began a tutoring program that enabled elementary and middle school students to be tutored by high school students. I continued to volunteer and tutor students while I earned my BS in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University. I am furthering my interest in education ... read more

I will share many experiences and examples in order to help studnets understand the text. I have much more patience than most younger teachers and have ways to help getthe text ideas over to the students. I love to teach reading and I use experiences and examples to help explain texts.
I have had wonderful experiences teaching many interns and residents in medical schools hospitals in the US> I have reintroduced older medications that have been used in the past and are very cost effective but have been forgotten. I have volunteered at a local elementary school and shared experiences to help the young people understand the text and information given.

I tend to use a hands on approach to teaching. I put learning in the perspective of the students life into an experience that he/she can relate to. I asses the level of clarity needed based on the students response and actions. I like to teach visually which also helps for memorization and repetition. I take as many breaks as necessary for the student so that they do not get frustrated or discouraged. I also make them feel comfortable with me as a teacher so that all questions and comments are highly suggested and welcome. I am very patient, easy going, and considerate. Lastly, I like to tutor at a place that is most comfortable for the student.
I am a graduate of the University of Florida and have been fortunate enough to excel in school throughout my life. I started tutoring in middle school and continued throughout my college career. I earned my bachelors degree in Accou ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways.
I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a total of nine years teaching experience in Alachua county. Due to my success with the lowest quartile, from 2006-2008 my entire class was made up of the lowest quartile of Kindergarten students in the school. At the end of my eighth year teaching Kindergarten, I decided to loop up to First grade with my class. I found witnessing the growth of students who could not identify the letters in their own name to reading 50+ words a minute to be the most rewarding of my career.
I believe that good teaching is an art. Teaching as well as learning should be fun. I believe in modifying the way skills are taught based on the interest of the child. Creating an atmosphere in which each child feels safe, valued, and is encouraged to be creative is the key to developing a life long love of learning. My goal is to lay the foundation for a happy and successful academic future for eac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy learning and I strive to teach so that my students enjoy learning as well. I choose to cater my instruction to my individual students so that I can interest them, connect to them, and meet the overall needs of the student. I pride myself on my creativity and I work hard to come up with unique ways to teach skills that have become frustrating and often boring to students because I understand that not all students learn in the same fashion. I know the importance of instilling the knowledge of basic skills into my students but I also recognize that learning needs to be interesting and relatable in order to comprehend. I am patient, flexible, and compassionate to all learners.
I graduated from the University of Central Florida with a B.S. in Elementary Education and Endorsements in Reading and English Speakers of Other Languages. I am currently working towards my M.ed in Readin ... read more
