Owner and Founder of Signing Autistic Lives.Signing Autistic Lives provides American Sign Language (ASL) instruction to facilitate communication and improve quality of life for autistic children and their families in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. Sign language can be an empowering tool for creating genuine communication and providing a transition to spoken language for many autistic individuals. Signing can significantly reduce frustration and improve daily life for everyone in the child’s circle. Our program is tailored to your family’s needs and routines. If getting ready for school generally prompts a tantrum, for example, we’ll work to make that activity smoother and enable your child to communicate what he’s thinking and feeling. We break down the basics of American sign Language in a unique approach that allows parents to begin signing immediately and create communic

I enjoy teaching and helping others excel. I am willing to go that extra mile to get the job done and I make sure that not only a student passes but they learn along the way. I have several styles of teaching and I like to keep it interesting by changing up the way that I present the material to keep the student engaged and interested. I like for the students to participate, communicate and provide feedback. This gives me the opportunity to see what they know and what they don't know. Also it allows me to see the growth in the student, allows me to tell whether or not they are learning, and it also allows me to know what approach to take in delivering the materials on their level in which they can understand and comprehend. I have earned a MBA degree in Business Administration and a Concentration in Human Resources and I am currently pursuing a dual MBA degree in Management Information S

I tailor my teaching style to the student. I believe that the lesson should be based on the learner and not the preference of the teacher. Repetition is good for learning; therefore, the use of various teaching methods are employed in order to maximize the information retained and learned by the individual student. I may use music, writing, reading (various types of writing materials),arts & crafts, and real life relations to engage the student in retaining and comprehending information; not just for the class, but for a solid foundation in the subject area. I desire for the student to retain the information beyond the test. I was a Graduate Teacher’s Assistant at the University of North Florida January 2008-May 2008 in the Criminal Justice & Criminology Department, for Crime In America & Justice Systems (Courses included Freshman-Senior); where I facilitated breakout sessions of lec

I believe that every student has his/her own learning pace. Each student is capable of understanding a subject if provided with the right basic tools. I give students a chance to first explain their understanding of a problem. I also have them work problems out and from their answers, I am able to correct their mistakes and find ways that will enable them to correctly and quickly answer questions. My goal is to provide them with tools that will make mathematics fun, easy to understand, and to answer questions using basic math knowledge. I am patient and understanding of my students needs and I will make a world of difference in your child's education. Education and work experience: I have two BBA Degrees in International Business, Transportation and Logistics from the University of North Florida. During my college years, I worked as a Mathematics and English as a second language

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.

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 in memorization because that is not learning. I want the child to carry his newly learned knowledge well into his future and always have it available in the back of his mind. It should not be forgotten but built upon. It's like building a brick wall, one brick at a time. It does take time but when that final brick is put in place, what a masterpiece! 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

I enjoy teaching to the utmost level. I know my strengths lie primarily in students who are of the kindergarten through fourth grade levels. I feel students should have the opportunity to be themselves and is why I enforce a learning enviornment that is condusive to being independent learners. As a graduate of a prestigious college, I was inspired to change my major from music education to elementary education. This choice was made due to the growing decline in students level of achievement in reading. I have my degree in elementary education and also a special certification from NASA with an emphasis in mathematics and reading. During the last eight years I have tutored students through after school programs,Sylvan Learning, and also through individual tutoring through my home.

When I first meet with a student I let them tell me what they know. In their own words about the unit or subject they are currently having trouble with. If I know how the instructor teaches the lesson I try to duplicate it. The child is already having a hard time and I don’t want to compound the complicated by teaching a different way. But, then sometimes I need to start from scratch. Again, I try to build on whatever the child is already comfortable with. I tend to be interactive and like lots of feedback. Visual, Auditory, and interactive. I give an example and I ask one from them. I ask easy questions and then add more to it. Doing my best to let the child discover the answer/ solution for themselves. I started tutoring in high school and all through college. When I tutored high school and middle school (usually math and science) I had a lot of experience with the subject m

I have experience at all levels in special education. I am certified in elementary education with a concentration in special education for K-12. I am efficient with basic sign language. I am not fluent, but know roughly 100 signs. I often use sign language as a form of teaching. I find that the visual aid assists in recalling a student's memory, especially with those who have forms of learning disabilities. I sincerely enjoy teaching one on one and love watching students reach success. I love teaching and working with all children. I find it fascinating that each child's method of learning is different for each and every one. Helping a child discover what their unique way of learning is and helping them use tools to maximize their learning methods to the fullest is truly rewarding.

I have an AA degree in Elementary Education and specialize in ESE students and reading. I have created my own lesson plans as well as taught in front of elementary and middle school students in micro-teach lessons and while substituting for teachers. I have tutored elementary, middle and high school students during high school and through college, including students with disabilities. I have also tutored college students while in college. Some subjects I tutored were math, english, reading, writing, spelling, social science, history, and literature. I have a lot of patience, I am a good listener and I do not judge any one on their abilities. I hope to help as many students as possible from now and throughout my career. I look forward to working with you! Each of my students has a differing level of strength in listening, speaking, reading and writing. It is my responsibility to go beyond

As an English teacher with an advanced degree in teaching from Emory University, I have taught students with a variety of backgrounds and abilities. In addition to my BA in English, I also have a concentration in creative writing from the University Connecticut. My skills in teaching writing and grammar and analyzing literature have been honed over the years. I also have taken seven years of French and feel confident tutoring students through their third or fourth year. Having taught a variety of children, those with IEPs and learning disabilities to honors students, I have developed a variety of strategies to accelerate the learning process, mostly through differentiated instruction. Trying a variety of methods to access a child's learning style is key. Tutoring one on one or in a small group allows me to discover this and capitalize on it even more quickly than in a larger classroom.

I tutored for my final two year in college- middle school, elementary school, and high school. I have had a teaching certificate for four years. I have taught middle school math, but tutored the entire time I taught all middle school subjects. I have also tutored several high school math students and up to college algebra for several college students. I believe in a hands on approach when it comes to many subjects and I have availablity to many manipulatives. I focus on the learning style of the individual student and teach to their specific learning style to get the most growth. I have extensive knowlegde of the Florida FCAT and can help students prepare for that in several ways. I also have access to several helpful on line technology sources that can enhance the learning process.
