My teaching style is mathematically minded. I break down concepts of any subject into simple algorithms that are easy to follow, then organize information into easy-to-remember categories.

In college I decided to major in Biology and minor in Psychology. This was ideal because the exposure to both of these disciplines would be critical to becoming a well-rounded individual. To further demonstrate my academic ability, this year I gained admissions to Georgetown University School of Medicine. As a medical student and a future physician I know that my leadership, academic, and interpersonal skills are key assets in educating children. Last year, I was a permanent substitute teacher at Miami Ferguson High School where I was able to interact with students of all grades. I substituted many different subjects, such as Math and English where I had to adapt to the many roles of a teacher. In January of 2007, they gave me the chance to work with the children affected with autism. This opportunity allowed me to learn about the mental challenges that these children go through on

Over the years I have learned that the future of education lies in a partnership between the community, parents, students and educators. Each person shares the responsibility to prepare lifelong learners, who will become literate, self-disciplined, independent, creative, and confident individuals. Hence, I treat every student with the utmost respect and appreciation. I feel that education should build the foundation for each student and it is my responsibility as a teacher to provide that foundation for my students. I look at every student as an individual, eager to gain knowledge and to be successful. Every student has talents and I have the responsibility of creating the atmosphere for their talents to flourish.

I begin my career on Wall Street, as a receptionist, working in the Bond Department. I eventually entered into the Investment Banking/Planning and Trading field through promotions. I stayed away from the education field, because many of my family members were teachers and counselors. However, when I started volunteering as a "Motivational Speaker" for un-wed mothers, I was touched by the plight of their stories. Years later, I signed up to be a Substitute Teacher in Broward County. I was convinced that I could make a difference in the way students were taught and I did. As a young single parent, I didn't have much to offer my daughter in terms of material possessions. However, I believed that an education would be her key to a better life. I nurtured her with love and encouragement. I encouraged her to believe that she could be and do anything that she wanted to, if she worked hard.

I believe the keys to teaching any student, young or old, are patience and encouragement. I find that when I demonstrate a pleasant, usually fun, and encouraging environment for my students, they tend to thrive. There has not been a more fulfilling experience for me than to effectively teach a child something that they did not initially have the confidence to learn. My goal is to not only teach them the required material, but to also introduce a learning experience that positively impacts their self-perception. If they believe they can learn anything, they will ultimately thrive in other experiences that require self-confidence, patience, and leadership. The bottom line is that I love to teach, because very few experiences grant me this opportunity. During the course of my studies in Biomedical Engineering, I have gained extensive academic knowledge in Math, Biology, and Chemistry,

I enjoy helping others. Tutoring is a special way of helping someone in that you not only provide help with their current classwork but, you provide them with a lifelong skill. It is especially important to impart a lifelong love of learning to each child so that they are always looking to improve themselves and are capable of adapting to whatever life sends their way. When I tutor, it is my goal to impart this lesson to each child I encounter. I started tutoring in high school and was able to tutor in all subject areas. Once I was in college and was pursuing a degree in History, I became especially suited to students who need help in areas such as Social Studies, Geography, and English. Since college, my focus has primarily been elementary school students. I still, however, tutor high school level Social Studies and English (including AP). I can also provide test prep assistance in al
