I have been teaching children with special needs for about 15 years I am also an ABA therapist/ Shadow. Presently I am teaching primary grades with ESE students with Autism, LD, ADHD and Behaviors. I also teach Art to students in grades K--12th. Drawing, painting, Holiday crafts, wire sculpting. I provide simple and creative lessons for the students. I enjoy teaching. I find teaching methods that will be creative so my students are encouraged to learn. All my students learn at a different level. I provide alot of hands on teaching, which helps to motivate students. Each student has a unique way of learning, they are provided, with visuals, manipulatives, verbal prompts in order to learn the lesson being taught. Each student is on a different level, which means I need to provide individual learning techniques for each student while providing special accomodations for them.

I am a well rounded teacher who will adapt to the students learning styles. In my classroom I teach using different learning styles and techniques. I believe that all students learn differently so they should be taught differently. I have been teaching for 14 years in the Broward County School District. I have extensive experience when it comes to tutoring. I have been tutoring for 12 years in the areas of Reading, Math, and Writing using test taking strategies. Last summer, I started my own tutoring program. It was a success! All the students that attended my tutoring camp were very success this year in school.

I like to start working with my 4th graders that are going to take the Florida Writes for the first time earlier in the year. I go over with them what a good story needs the beginning and ending paragraph and the 3 middle ones. I work on the different paragraphs during the year with different topics to give them practice beforehand and usually a month before the test they are usually pretty confident and familiar with the whole process. My students enjoy coming to lessons with Ms. Sharon. I make them feel comfortable, and always encourage them to ask me questions. I always ask them if their was something that they had in the classroom that they didn't understand, and they are not inhibited to tell me so. They know I will not judge them on that, I am just inquiring to help them out so that when they go back into the classroom they will understand what is going on. I want to make the

I am a learner-centered instructor. When working with an individual I try to understand his or her learning approaches and needs. I believe that I work well with alternative learners and with young adults who may be disaffected with conventional educational methods. I particularly enjoy working with adults and feel that I often learn so much more from them than what I am able to offer. When working with adult learners I respect that their personal lives and needs may intersect with our instructional time. Frequently I will incorporate whatever is going on in their lives into our current "curriculum." Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University. I have extensive experience teaching at the adult level and enjoy working with

Honestly, I can’t see myself in any other profession. I love what I do. There are those days that always seem tuff but at the end of every school year I am able to sit back and look at the impact I have made. I value education and realize the need for good educators to not only teach our students but get them motivated about their futures and the endless opportunities. I am patient and will work alongside any student who is willing to learn and try their best. I have truly enjoyed working with children from my early years in high school. Along with that I have always felt the need to help people in any way possible. Becoming a teacher has been such a great experience and opportunity. Overtime I have also realized that many students are unable to achieve their ultimate success due to external factors outside of school. That is one of the many reasons I have also chosen to become a school

As a teacher of elementary mathematics, I understand how students of similar age can work on completely different levels. I believe to maximize comprehension, it is my duty to meet each student on his or her level and work from there. I have found that students learn differently and with different techniques and tools. As many of our students are technologically advanced, I incorporate this component into the learning process. For my visual learners, I provide visual cues. In all, I make what ever adjustments are necessary to meet each student on his or her level. As a student at the University of Miami, I studied anthropology and busines administration. I graduated from the University with my BA. I have over 8 years of administrative and financial experience working in the County government and at the University of Miami. My passion to work with the youth led me to make a career

I started tutoring at a learning center where I tutored children ages 5-17. I tutored every subject including the FCAT test. I decided to offer private tutoring on my own and travel to the students' houses. I found that the students felt more comfortable and it also gave me chance to discuss the progress of the child with parents to a better extent. I then became involved with a program dealing with foster care children who were court ordered to receive tutoring. Many of the cases were challenging and required much more patience and compassion than I had needed in the past, but it is always rewarding to see a child learn and grow. The subject that students need the most help with is math. I have noticed the differences in difficulty when trying grasp mathematical concepts and have found ways to somewhat cater to their specific trouble areas. It is very important to give lots of e

As a graduate of Barry University I am a teacher that loves to do hands on activities with the children in order to create for them a real learning environment. Although I graduated last year I have had my Associate Degree in Early Childhood since 1993 and have been teaching in private preschools since then. Also, before going back to school to finish my BA I was a substitute teacher for 7 years for Dade County Public Schools at times being placed for weeks for teachers that were out. I have tutored several children in the past privately. I am currently employed by Dade County Public Schools but do have the desire and time to help any other child that needs tutoring afterschool. Teaching has been my passion since I was a child. I love being in the front of a class and seeing how the light bulbs go off when they "get it". I firmly believe that all children can learn but they all have di

I believe the classroom should be a creative, encouraging, and open environment for all children to feel like they’re at “home away from home.” I want to create an atmosphere of self expression, exploration, and diversity. In my opinion, in each classroom, a variety of fun and exciting techniques should be used to start children’s creative energy flowing. For example, I think that there are many learning possibilities alive in the classroom such as team-work, organization, crafting, language, and more. Some children are going through difficult situations in school, at home, and within themselves. I want each child to feel comfortable and safe, knowing they’re really being heard and assist parents with being better able to learn how to effectively react to their children’s behavior by explaining to them how they feel and inculcating their children with values, principles and by teaching t

In 1999, I began work as a substitute teacher for Dade County Public Schools. I continued as a Pool Substitute for Dade County while earning my BS in Psychology in 2005. I began teaching that year and have since earned my MS in Reading, as well as becoming certified in Reading, ESOL, and Gifted.

I stongly beleive that all children are able to learn but no all childrens learn the same way. I have experienced the different types of surronding like private and public schools and i learned that each student have a different approach to learning. Teachers have a very important part in their future,they need to show each student is special in their own way, I show them that I beleive that they are capable to do everything they want to accomplish, if they beleive in themself and work on their goal. Teaching is my life and I like to know that I am helping with their future. I am try to be a positive influence in all my students by showing how to use their potential to fullest. For the past 11 years I have been working with students in different challenging and responsible positions in education (such as: at Belen Jesuit Preparatory Schoolas as a Substitute Teacher, at After School Prog
