If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent through her citizenship exam practice. Another was when I prepped a friend for a lifeguard exam that she had failed twice. Seeing my students of all ages succeed is a joy.
My motto is if at all possible, I want ... read more

I learn how the student needs to be educated and teach to the style that they need.
I believe that all children can learn and learn well. I enjoy working with students and teaching has always been a passion of mine. Before moving to Florida, I tutored at a community college in CT. I worked with students in the areas of French, Spanish and English. In Florida, I worked for six years as a paraprofessional at a school for children with learning disabilities. I have worked with many students in various areas for home school and public school. I taught grades 2 to 12 in math, reading and history.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always enjoyed teaching and helping others to learn. I don't believe in "I can't do it" or "I can't learn". I believe that anyone can learn anything as long as they're willing to learn and put an effort to do so. What is different is that some people have more ability than other to learn certain tasks, but eventually, everyone can learn. It is all a matter of adapting oneself to the student's need and ability to learn. My goal is to make the student learn what they set up their mind to learn in the first place, and help them improve their condition. It is very rewarding to see that you have made a difference in their lives.

More About This Tutor...

I have a fervent desire to play a role in the education of our children. Since my early occupations in school administration, I knew that I wanted to be in the classroom, guiding students and experiencing the excitement of learning something new alongside each of them. I used this initial motivation to eventually move into education, eventually landing at Choices In Learning. It is clearly evident from my experiences that I have a passion for teaching and, more importantly, for walking with students through each challenge, success, and failure. Through my experiences, I have also learned a great deal about what it takes to be a teacher, a mentor, and a friend, and I have had the opportunity to learn about myself through my interactions with students from different backgrounds. This high level of experience, my ability and desire to try new teaching techniques and my openness to new idea ... read more

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects!

I am currently working in Canaveral’s International School located in Cali, Colombia South America. I teach English as a second language to 9th, 10th, 11th graders and E.C.S (English Communication Skills) to 6th, 7th and 8th graders. I worked as a language art teacher in Colegio Franciscano de Pio XII prior to working in Cañaverales. I also worked in Berlitz Colombia S.A as an English teacher and then as Academic Director. I have been teaching for more than 10 years. I am not certified in the State of Florida since it is not needed in South America. My husband and I are relocating to Florida in February 2012 and I am looking to tutor students in what I love to do while I acquire my Florida State certification. I have taught children and adults. My specialty is grammar, reading and writing. I can also tutor in Spanish.

Learning Can be Fun!

I have tutored children in group and individual piano lessons. I have tutored them in math and social studies. I have spent over 20 years in business in the accounting field and prepared countless financial statements and income tax returns. I am skilled in all things mathematical. I also speak Spanish through over 9 years of instruction.
I like to allow the student to read the material once and clarity any areas that need more explanation. Then I will allow them to answer questions from the material read and help them where needed to choose the correct answer and understand the reason for the answers. I like to reward a certain level of correct answers with points that can be redeemed for interesting small prizes. I also consider myself very patient and interested in the student having a strong foundation for future learning.

Energetic, enthusiastic tutor with an unyielding commitment.

I try to serve as a facilitator of learning, providing students with the knowledge and tools to solve problems and then encouraging students to solve them on their own. When students answer a problem incorrectly, I do not allow them to quit. I try to encourage them to figure out where they went wrong and to keep working at the problem until they get the correct answer, providing support and guidance where needed
As an education professional with more than twelve years of experience working with children, I am eager to return to the workforce. With my unique and extensive experience in providing solid education, implementing and planning lessons, and leading an assortment of other academic-based projects, I feel excited and more than prepared for the challenges and opportunities that come with this role.
