Besides my formal education, I have helped many people while working for Disabled Student Services at Florida Community College at Jacksonville. I helped my blind boss understand the needs of her deaf students. I helped a disabled boy with Algebra and I helped my mom with her math when she went back to college. I enjoy helping younger and older people alike. I like to get to know the person with whom I am working so I can find the best style for that person. Whether it is visual, auditory or kinetic. I find the way that person learns and then I help them on their level.

I am a successful teacher because I not only teach, but I learn through those I am teaching. I have learned to be patient, with patience comes success! Compassion and understanding the struggles of a learner is very important. My teaching style is one of respect for the student, acknowledgement of what the student knows, and using the information as an assessment to advance and scaffold to the next level. My teaching style is unique due to differential instructional training, relating instruction to real world situations/experiences, and the fall and recovery outlook. A student may fall in an academic learning area but it takes a sincere effort on the part of the learner to recover. I am a passionate teacher who loves educating children of all ages by individualizing instruction. My love for teaching is my driving force behind creatively introducing new interesting ways of teaching for

I enjoy working with children & adults alike. I firmly believe there is nothing a student can not master, as long as the teacher/tutor is willing to adapt to how that student learns. I am a life-long student & have mastered how to convey information differently to ensure everyone understands. I am patient, personable & encouraging; ensuring that each student not only reaches their academic potential, but gains self-confidence in their academic abilities. I possess what I like to call the NASA mentality, "Failure is NOT an option, we WILL find a way to make all the pieces come together for every student in every subject." Learning is a journey & I believe it is a privilege to be the one to open that gift for others. As an advocate of learning, I continually pursue education. I believe you must remain current in your subjects of expertise. I hold a Masters in Business Administration, a B

My paid professional teaching experince includes one year working as a Special Education Paraprofessional for 2-4 grade stundents classified with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders. My undergraduate degree from Valdosta State University was in music education. While some teachers favor a direct instruction approach, I try to tailor my instruction to the growing and diverse needs of each student. Some are more auditory learners than others, therefore, for those you would need a lot of teaching by rote, i.e "do as I do", so to speak.

Through my previous experience my teaching style is focused on a strengths prospective. Factors such as motivation, encouraging discussion, critical thinking, challenging perception, and providing time to process the problem and initialize forming a conclusion on their own is imperative!

While working on my undergrad I was given the opportunity to be a teaching assistant for a freshman college level film theory and design class. During this opportunity I was responsible for grading the daily work of our students, as well as being a resource for the students design projects. I taught lectures based on film theory and design, as well as specific pieces of film. I myself am a visual and auditory learner, so I am very open to all types of teaching styles. I find that people learn better when several avenues of learning are available for a subject. Also repetition is a very important device for making knowledge permanent. I like to bring a fun and light atmosphere to learning.

As a teacher I do my best to discover how each child learns, and tailor my lessons to fit them so that the student gets the maximum amount of learning out of the lesson. I believe that with perserverence and a little bit of self esteem, any child can

My teaching style is to first teach the basic principles and then teach how they can be extended and used to solve problems. By helping students understand the fundamentals and problem solving techniques, they are able to think for themselves. This allows them to think more independently and solve a wider variety of problems without relying on memorization. I have experience in engineering which includes a solid understanding of math, calculus, statistics as well as physics. I have applied and practiced these skills in various business industries over my 12 year working career. I also have experience teaching at the under graduate level for the Measurement and Instrumentation course in the engineering program at Iowa State University.
