I hear and I forget. I see and I remember.I do and I get it.

I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall.
The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.

Every student can learn, I help them find their own SUCCESS!

I have strong classroom management skills and a passion for helping kids gain a better understanding for anything under the sun! I have high expectations of what my students can do, and help support them in achieving those expectations. My philosophy is that "can't" is the worst 4 letter word in the dictionary, as a result, I work to motivate my students to become life long learners and to enjoy learning new things.
I began working with children at the age of 10 in the capacity of babysitter/activities director. As a teen I began working in daycare centers and have worked in the capacity of teacher/assistant teacher/ director/owner. I have taught public school in Florida and the Bronx, NY over the past 5 years. I have worked as a drop-out prevention teacher and have had the privileged to work with a large number of disadvantaged and at-risk students.

MENTORING THROUGH TEACHING LASTS FOREVER!!!

What is appropriate for the student is my style. If the student needs much one on one to learn, that's okay. His or her peaked interest in learning and the understanding of its necessity is my key goal. I have three very different children and all of have different styles of learning. One gifted, one with learning disabilities, and the one who got ill and had to be home schooled through High School.
I have tutored in the Public Schools for many years while my children were young. As a young teen I even graded papers for teachers who were not associated with my school district. I enjoy teaching and get great satisfaction from the success when a student gets it! I home schooled my middle child when she became too ill to attend school on a regular basis. My method for her taught her to be very responsible. Upon graduation she had better self confidence and had a 4.0 in college and suc ... read more

I believe that children need to find a reason to have a goal of being educated. Coming from a small town and having such a global perspective, I love helping children see their place in this vast world and that they are an important global citizen. I try to show them through energetic discovery, that all this "boring stuff" leads to much more interesting and and fun stuff. Children need to know that they are important assets to us all and that they are more than capable of over acheiving whatever they set out to do.
Studying French and Russian Studies at Stetson allowed me gain more than a grasp on those two languages, but insight to the cultures, an appreciation for and ability to interpret literature and poetry, a deeper understanding of history, geography, and politics as well as a desire to share all of this with others.

I recently graduated with a Masters in Teaching from the University of South Florida. I also have earned a BA in History from St. Cloud State University. I have previous experience working at a private school in tampa as a classroom assistant. I also have experience tutoring primary and secondary students in reading and math.
I personally believe that all students should be treated equitably rather than equally. We as educators must realize that our students are individuals and deserve to be treated as so. We must realize certain techniques work for a few and not the entire group. It is our responsibility as educators to encourage our students to reach their potential and provide a safe learning environment in which to do so.

I have over a years experience volunteering in the Elem. level education, and I am presently finishing up my Bachelors Degree In elem. Education online with the University Of Phoenix. I am very patient and understanding to a child's needs in weak areas of learning. If learning is made to be creative fun and challenging I have found that they will strive to want to learn.
I love working with children, I have 3 of my own two of them are on the honor roll,Learning style is different to kids and their needs. For example you maybe able to go over material once with a child and they get it and others it takes more time or you have to ask them more questions about their interests and base the learning activity geared toward their interests, this will hold their attention and they will want to learn the material.
