Experience and education in child psychology and child development has furthered by breadth of knowledge in the special education field. I have had positive communication and working relationships with both parents and co-workers. Sixteen years teaching has seasoned my teaching skills and has given me the opportunity to employ different collaborative methods with fellow teachers and administration.

Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I thoroughly enjoy helping students to realize their full potential. I believe that all students are capable of achieving academic success so long as the teacher provides a means through which students can make personal connections with the material. I believe providing opportunities for choice encourages exploration of academic sources in even the most hesitant of students because their unique perspectives are being met and acknowledged. I am patient, knowledgeable, creative, and most importantly, dedicated to the academic success of your child. Having just graduated in May 2008, I feel lucky to have already experienced a wide range of instructional opportunities. Last fall, I was employed as a Teacher's Aide and Learning Lab Facilitator.

I truly believe all children can learn. I am very student-centered as I know that each child learns in different ways. I have a minor in Psychology which I use to help me understand the psyche of the child. Behavior is a very important aspect in learning and I employ Positive Behavioral Supports and an individual approach to every child. I am a strong believer in using real-life problems, manipulatives, and engaging activities that use all the senses. As a graduate from a rigorous teacher training program at USF, I learned many skills and techniques to to teach students of all ability levels and ages. I had many opportunities throughout my college career to practice and experience teaching students from large groups to one-on-one settings.

My teaching style revolves around applying skills to the specific interests of the student. It has been my experience that a child learns best when they can ground their knowledge in their own specific, real-world interests. I believe that when you provide a student with an interesting and positive environment, they can really soak up the knowledge and learn to apply it on their own terms. I believe that my patience and creativity make it easy to create this environment. If you give a student the opportunity to discover and learn at their own pace, I truly believe that the confidence they gain is directly related to the quality of their education. It is my personal wish that every student have the same opporuntity to experience the value of a solid education and to appreciate the avenues that such an education can afford them. While at Purdue, I studied English literature and writing

I find that teaching is as much about getting to know each person, finding there strengths and weaknesses and using those to benefit them in their process of understanding. I like to come up with creative approaches that will suit each individual's strengths for learning. I know that one on one attention, support and encouragement is a large component of what is missing in a lot of today's public school classrooms and love the opportunity that tutoring can provide to children who can learn just as well as anyone else, but may not be finding success in the classroom. I live for the moment when the "light bulb" comes on, there is no greater reward for that individual or the person that got to help them arrive there. I am a lover of learning. My love for learning has certainly attributed to my working my way through a Masters of Arts in Teaching. My enthusiasm for helping others to learn ha

I have always been passionate about education. I pursued a double bachelor's degree in English and Spanish with the hopes of teaching the subjects one day. Indeed, I will, as in the fall I will begin graduate school to obtain my Masters in Spanish Secondary Education. With my English major, I not only perfected my grammatical skills but also my ability to write clearly and effectively, as I had to write many papers. As for my Spanish ability, I have been to Spain and Peru with my university, where I was able to practice my language abilities. During the course of my college years, I have tutored two ESL students in various subjects as well as assisted many students with writing papers and edited papers. I am confident that any student can learn the material; however, I know that sometimes different amounts of work are required, as well as different teaching methods. I try all methods unt

All through my career my focus has been to teach to the needs of the individual student. I believe that learning is fun. I believe that all students can learn, given the proper encouragement. I have fun when I teach. I have very high expectations for my students, all of which have experienced some sort of difficulty in the educational system. My classroom is a place of smiles, laughter, and achievement. As a tutor, I bring the same beliefs to the table. I have two main objectives for any student: to create a positive, encouraging learning environment; and to help the student find his personal learning style and train him to use it efficiently.

Having taught in several community colleges, from 1981 to 2000, I have interacted with the young, middle aged, and elderly, having taught and learned from the single, the married, the multi-marrieds, of varied backgrounds, cultures, and ethnicities, of different race, pigmentation, nationality, gender, creed, and religion. I consider myself as both teacher and student. I have come to realize that in life, each of us, no matter how highly educated, will ever remain an undergraduate in the university of life.I look at teaching as an opportunity for me to become even more proficient and knowledgeable in my field of expertise even as I teach my students to live up to their potential in my classroom. In class, I prefer a relaxed atmosphere, with emphasis on each student as a person, not inferior to the teacher, just not as yet knowledgeable enough to teach the subject at hand. In li
