Elementary Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Islamorada, FL

My style tends to range based on who I am trying to teach, and I suppose is most accurately labeled as adaptive. I understand that different people learn things in different ways, and so I try to accommodate that with my teaching. For instance if I found that a student learns better visually then I would attempt to use visual cues and examples in lesson plans to make the material as easy to understand as possible. I also believe in keeping a very loose and pleasant atmosphere, and making sure that everyone feels comfortable and safe, which I believe also assists in the learning process. My first major mentoring/teaching experience occurred in college when I began leading study groups and eventually organizing tutoring sessions with a number of my fellow English, Calculus, and Physics students. I then obtained a position as a youth counselor with the YMCA and quickly moved up t

I love learning new things, reading and boating. I am happy, patient and a good listener. i will be there for your child to build study skills that will last a lifetime. I want your student to feel comfortable with learning and understanding the best way to retain that information and organize it into their life. I will help your child focus and and improve the grade level they are currently struggling with or even if they are looking for a positive edge. It is my goal that your child is a happy, creative and successful student. Graduating in April 2002 from Florida State University with a major in Information Studies, I have attained the education necessary for me to succeed in helping students to realize their potential.

After graduating with a double major in Psychology and English with an emphasis in Literature, I started my graduate work in English and a teaching position as a high school English teacher. I took education certification courses and passed the state exam for the State of Florida for middle school and high school English.

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from the University of Missouri in 1993. Since graduation, I have acquired 15 years of experience through classoom teaching, tutoring and educational coaching. Most of my classroom experience was spent teaching 5th grade. I tutored elementary students for 12 years, and was recently trained as a Reading Coach. My certifications are in the areas of Elementary Education 1-8, Reading 4-8, and Social Studies 4-8. My greatest strength is making learning fun and academic, so students are engaged and excited about what is being taught. Almost all students get excited about learning when it is presented in a manner that fits their learning style and is appropriate for their ability/level. Assessment of both is mandatory before you can begin effective and meaningful instruction. Once these assessments are completed, learning obj

I am a firm believer that every student given an opportunity has the ability to learn. They also must be given an opportunity to learn in the style in which they learn the best, be it visual, auditory or hands-on. I believe and practice a constructivist model of learning. I see multicultural education as a way of reaching all students so that they have an equal opportunity to learn. Students in the future must be prepared for a world job market and tutoring can provide these children with a great opportunity to enhance their skills. I have a BA degree from the University of Central Florida in Education and a current Florida Teaching Certificate. I have taught high school for 18 years before relocating. At that time I worked in the informal education field as an afterschool program teacher and manager of a educational programming business, educational director at a Museum and Nature Cente

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 counselor. I also understand that everyone has a different way of learning and I use differentiated instruction to be an effective teacher and also to make the lessons a little more interesting. 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 t
