Socaratic Method My teaching experience is extensive and includes subjects such as: reading, history, geography, baseball, and fitness. I acquired a Bachelor's degree in Arts with a concentration in theatre and humanities from Barry University and graduated with honors. I also hold a juris doctorate degree from a well-known law school. I have taught several classes in Business law as well as International law. Teaching is a passion for me as I come from a long list of family teachers and it is innate in me. My grandmother retired as a grammar school teacher. She was liked by many students. As a young boy I often would visit her classroom and sit-in on some of her classes. At a very tender age I knew I wanted to be a teacher and even perhaps a professor at a university of great prestige. My mother also pursued a teaching career and taught grades 2 and high school students. I am

I am able to relate to students using their learning style and references that connect them to the material for better success. I am patient and use my sense of humor to figure out how a student learns to get the best results. I do not believe that one method works for everybody. I have a lot of experience with students with learning challenges. I love it when a student says "Wow." I like to support and reward their path to understanding. It's best when you see that they are proud of themselves and they did it! 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 was an instructional aide for Adult Education at Martin C

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

As a Teacher Assistant I used to assess changing curricular needs and offers plans for improvement. Providing an educational atmosphere where students have the opportunity to fulfill their potential for intellectual, emotional, physical, spiritual and psychological growth. With my BA in Social Science , it help me to ensure that the student growth and achievement is continuous and appropriate for age group, subject area, and/or program classification. I think that we have to a pproach every kids needs in different manners since every kid dont learn at a same pace or way than others. Obviously I Like to use a plan or a Guideline which will help me to identify the need of the student and it will help to place the children in a group that will meet their potential. My Goal as a teacher is to provide to my student the right education and academic potential which are the tools to succe

I thoroughly enjoy teaching young minds. Regardless of the reason that student is seeking tutoring, whether it be a demonstrated deficiency in performance, or a desire to excel in the subject matter, tutoring is an ideal method to provide individualized instruction to the student and tailor that instruction for maximum efficacy. As a tutor, one may vary their teaching style from student to student and further modify their approach with each student dependent upon daily emotional and motivational changes of said student. In all, I am firm in my overall teaching style but am malleable to the exigencies of the moment and the aspect of individualization is the component of tutoring that appeals most to me. I am currently a doctoral candidate for my PhD in Organizational Leadership. I also hold a Masters degree in Human Relations, an applied social science; a Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Stud

Since January 2006 I have been teaching in the Dade County Public School System, having recently been promoted to Social Studies Department Head. I have taught AP American Government, AP European HIstory, AP US History, Ap World History, IB History, Law Studies, Contemporary History and Speech and Debate. I became a teacher after 15 years in the private practice of law. I use the Socratic method. I challenge my students to respond to critical, higher level thinking questions. It is through this method that I secure positive results for the student. All students are capable of meeting their individual potential --- the key for the educator is understanding that one student's potential is not necessarily the same as another student's potential.

When you are in charge of a group, you need to make sure that group overall has to succeed. While you may want to have everyone in the group to get A’s on all of their assignments, as a teacher, you need to be practical. Like a workshop in a factory or the support staff in a law firm, a classroom is filled with individuals who have different strengths and weaknesses. These differences may show that certain students learn and absorb knowledge in different ways. I think my ability to use a student’s strengths to succeed may ensure a student to strive for high academic achievement. This ability to see a person’s certain talents may also have this student succeed in learning a subject. One example I can recall is when I was in the Navy, I had to train a new shipmate, fresh out of boot camp, to learn the ship’s engineering systems.

With experience in both teaching large class rooms and tutoring one on one; I've learned that each child has a different way of processing information and learning. Though I do believe in two general rules that need to be followed for success in learning. Practice makes perfect and hard work leads to success. Practice makes perfect is especially true when it comes to helping students in math. With this in mind, I do my best to make sure every student is comfortable with the material and feels confident in the subject. With a BA in Psychology from FIU, I have learned how all sorts of children react to different learning environments. I have been tutoring children for about 5 years in all different age ranges and subjects. Though the most common subject I have tutored would be math. I've been working in the Miami Dade public school system for about 2 years as a substitute teacher, where I

Throughout my educational career I have always found myself to have a very healthy appetite for knowledge. It was this drive that lead me to earn both a Master’s in Engineering and Bachelor’s of Science with a double major in Engineering and Economics. My desire to learn did not rest solely within the sciences. While in school, I took several classes in fields ranging from Philosophy to History to Creative Writing. It was also my pleasure to pass along my knowledge to many of my peers. For a large portion of my college career I worked as a teaching assistant, helping students with reports and projects within the fields of Math and Science. An important lesson I learned is that every child is different. This is the most important fact to realize when attempting to teach a child. The most important traits that every teacher can have are patience and adaptability. It is my belief that every
