Since a classroom is filled with students who have different learning styles as described by Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences, I use a variety of ways to teach. Lectures are done through power point presentations, along with worksheets and handouts. Hands-on has been used in anatomy and physiology classes. Adult learners bring a lot of experiences to the classroom, and sharing and discussing brings a different perspective. Role playing helps students to look at a situation for another's point of reference. I tried to get students to determine the best way he/she learned in order to use that style when completing assignments or studying. Students can learn at any point in their lives, and understanding the needs of adult learners, gave me the opportunity to help students create goals and develop a plan to achieve an education that would bring those goals to fruition.

I describe myself as tough but fair and am a firm believer that you get out of life what you put into it. I work hard to insure that my students reach their full potential. I push my students to work to the best of their abilities and teach values and critical thinking skills by creating a fun and competitive environment in which they will feel comfortable and want to learn. I take my job, my career and the education of my students very seriously. I want my students to succeed at a mastery level and will use any teaching methods necessary in order to insure their success. My teaching style varies depending on what works best for each individual student. Activities for teaching vocabulary and culture are endless. With a Masters Degree in Education, a Bachelors Degree in French, more then seven years of hands-on teaching experience, I have taught hundreds of students both as a classroom te

I teach in a manner appropriate to the learner. I can be very basic or I can teach at a higher level, depending on the individual. I am very patient and will go over topics until the person understands before moving forward. I have found that sometimes people do not understand basic concepts and that is why they are having trouble learning. I do not have a teaching degree however, I have 30 plus years experience in Finance. I worked at Eastman Kodak for 37 years. During that time, I have taught bookkeeping to new employees, credit and collection work, working with Dun & Bradstreet, how to determine credit worth, reconciliations and problem solving. I have taught many people the 'Kodak' way to do their job. I have always been highly motivated and able to work well in a team environment.

Education stands atop my own list of the most important plights of mankind. I believe people are at their highest capacity for learning when they are children, and that such open minds should be given the resources to grow and educate themselves. I am very patient and persistent in my methods. I think teaching is an art of framing the student's mind so that they find themselves more engaged in the world through expression and description of it from the human language perspective (whether numerical or verbal). I get along well with kids and as long as the student I am working with has an attitude of openness, I am sure that it will be a successful, possibly even fun, experience. As a Cornell graduate, I have had the opportunity be lectured by academic experts spanning a wide variety of disciplines, and have experienced many different teaching styles. I have worked as a course assistant,

I enjoy teaching, tutoring and training others. I believe that each individual has their own personal learning style and I match that style in my teaching approach. I meet the student on their own personal level. I am extremely patient, kind and thorough, as well as firm and fair in reaching students.

My tutoring experience includes tutoring Psychology at SUNY Brockport College. My training experience includes being an industrial preceptor with The American Red Cross and training multiple individuals in industrial positions.

The great joy for me in teaching literature and composition is sharing strategies for powerful communication to students who are blocked. Although I am inspired and passionate about English, I enjoy demystifying it and revealing how skills in other areas not only apply but can be key. Whether helping readers gain access to poetry or sharing methods to help organize thoughts or research for an essay, I enjoy helping students identify and craft their own insights into effective and powerful messages. As a Magna Cum Laude graduate, my ten years of professional teaching experience as a lead teacher of secondary English is interspersed with a variety of other relevant experience. In addition to teaching literature, composition and grammar, I have also tutored professionally for Kaplan as part of the federally mandated No Child Left Behind program and for other private tutoring services in M

I graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2007 from SUNY Brockport with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education, English and Special Education. I have worked as a substitute teacher in all grade levels and in all subject areas. I have been accepted into a high degree Masters program but feel I need to have a job to justify the repayment(s) of additional student loans that would be needed to finish my MA. I have recently been a four county advocate for people with special needs as the Disabilities Program Navigator. I would still hold this position if funding had not run out. I have the abilities to work with any level of education. I love to work with children of any age. I have been volunteering for over 15 years helping wherever and whenever I can to help make the lives of children more enriched. I have two boys of my own (age 10 and 14) and have been successful in helping them achiev

I have worked with children, adolescents and adults both as a social worker and as a teacher. I truly enjoy developing rapport and then using it to instill trust and respect both me and for self as a learner. My own personality is easy and fun and I convey this to my students. I am a perceptive personality with masterful people skills andI can quickly see the impediments to success and then devise activity and discussion that undoes these factors. I am affirming and well structured in my approach. I think it fair to say that the vast majority of my students in tutoring and in college writing, adolescent social programming and parenting classes have also enjoyed and benefitted from our learning relations -- as have I. As an ivy league graduate, I was held to high standards which I have maintained throughout my career. I have a bacehlor's degree in social science and a master's as well.

Throughout my teaching career, I have learned to adjust instruction to meet the needs of individual students, create a supportive and encouraging classroom climate, and craft stimulating curricular activities. My overall goal is to provide students with a positive, inclusive learning environment in which they have every opportunity to achieve their full potential. For the past five years I have obtained a wealth of experience educating students within the public & private school environment. I currently teach fourth grade as well as the Newspaper Class. I have thrived in teaching grades four through eight at two prestigious private schools in Houston. I understand what is required to optimize a child's motivation & learning.

Since learning is such an individual endeavor, I believe that flexibility is one of the most important ingredients for good teaching.
