Percussion Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in De Leon Springs, FL

Children are my passion and I love watching them explore and grow. I love working with all children. I believe that every child had the ability to learn and will learn with the proper educators involved in their lives. Children can meet their maximum potential if they are challenged and encourage by a role model. I am available to help children grow, learn, and think. A child will succeed if he/she is placed in the correct educational surrondings, given the proper materials, and given encouragement. As a Bethune-Cookman University student, I have been involved with FAIR Vocabulary Training and Assessment,DRA Training and Assessment,Tutoring at Turie T. Small Elementary,Teaching/Tutoring at Westside Elementary,& Teaching at Mainland High School.

Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited. I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.

I believe teaching is as much about the experience of learning as it is about the subject matter that is being taught. Not every student learns in the same way, or at the same pace. I am sensitive to the students needs and existing background in school to know what is acceptable and what is not acceptable. I evaluate the students strengths and weaknesses to find the best way for the student to learn the subject matter so that the knowledge takes root. I have a high level of patience during the difficult starting phase when students are first grasping difficult material, and coupled with my creativity to find new ways of relating the subjects to students, help me to teach students in a way that is comfortable and encouraging for them. I am a graduate of Western Carolina University, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Education for the field of instrumental music. I have experience

As an undergraduate I started to tutor Chemistry in 2007. Since then I have tutored Chemistry to many different students in one-on-one and large group sessions. I have submitted by certification to be accepted by the State of Florida Department of Education and am awaiting confirmation. While in college I made straight A's for about 3 years, excelling in the sciences. I am very experienced with General Chemistry labs and lecture sessions. I am currently the Science Teacher at the First Academy Classical School program where I teach Biology and Chemistry part-time. I love to cater to each students needs. That's why I love tutoring because I can do this. Some students are visual learners, some learn by hearing, and some by doing. I incorporate all of these into my tutoring. I want to see all of my students not only get good grades but to truly grasp the concepts.

When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me until he/she is comfortable with me. Once they feel that I care, they open up and the learning really begins! When I really get a feel for the personality and whatever particular challenges are unique for this person in this class, I am able to determine the best way to communicate the subject and improve the skills. I like to think outside the box to find the best way for that student to have that "got it" moment! Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked for th

After receiving a Bachelor of Music in Education degree from Youngstown University, Youngstown, Ohio I was employed by the Crestwood Schools, Mantua, Ohio to teach instrumental music. I taught this subject at the middle school level while assisting with the high school program. My entire thirty year career in instrumental music was with the Crestwood School System. During my tenure at Crestwood Middle School the instrumental music program evolved into a vital program within the school involving four bands and over 250 students. During these years and to the present I still am involved in private music lessons and aiding music stores with their instrument recruitment process. My teaching style is based on student needs and abilities. I feel that every child is capable of learning and enjoying music as well as any other subject. A students progress is determined by their learning rate
