Drama is one of my top subjects! My teaching experience and my hobby was directing and acting in productions.

I have been a teacher for 40 years. I retired because family care-giving required my full attention. My studies prepared me to teach and my experience prepared me to meet the needs of each student. I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can help students with the organizational and learning skills that are important in a student’s success.
I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my students and for myself. I find joy in learning and believe that teaching a ... read more

The Student Comes First

I am a graduate of Tennessee Temple University, with experience tutoring at Tennessee Temple University, as well as University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, in various topics, including biodiversity, mathematics (up to pre-calculus), history, and American Sign Language. I continue to study in my personal time as many topics as possible, with the belief that a good tutor is firstly a good student.
I allow my teaching style to mold itself to each individual student, finding methods of communicating the information that best suit the learning style of my student. I favor a holistic approach to learning, believing that education should be of the whole person. If a student learns how a skill in his tutoring session can be applied in real life, then his or her perception of the subject may fundamentally improve.

I Will Meet You Where You Are!

I believe every student can learn! School was never meant to be a struggle, an effort yes, but not a struggle!
Hello! I have 15 years of teaching experience in the classroom and have been tutoring now since January of 2012. I have a true passion for teaching! I have taught in the parochial, private, and public schools. I taught at Assumption Catholic School from 1997-2004, English and Reading to 6th-12th grade ESE students at The Broach School from 2004-2008, and Intensive Reading to 11th and 12th graders at Andrew Jackson High School (public inner city urban in Duval County) from 2010-2011. I have also conducted FCAT, ACT, and SAT prep, as well as study skills in the summer months when students don't have schoolwork! While in the classroom my average student came up 3-4 grade levels in a year in reading comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, spelling, and language mechanics. My certi ... read more

Hands on teaching and kinesthetic learning are key to success in my mind. I love to involve the student's entire body in the learning process. From their senses to their movements to memory device techniques in the form of song or poem, using alternative methods of teaching seems more effective in the learning process.
As a Cum Laude graduate from the University of Florida, I continue to hold a high level of discipline in every aspect of life. Whether it be at work, at home, or at school, I feel it is imperative to do your best no matter what the situation. Upon graduation at the age of twenty, I began teaching undergraduate courses for UF. This was an honor, but it was not challenging enough. It was not until I helped students with severe mental and physical disabilities that I felt fulfilled in my profession. Being able to teach student who are eager to learn, but have obs ... read more

I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways.
I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child.

There are many ways to teach a variety of subjects but connecting the subject with the students life - connected learning is supported by Mary Belenky et al in her book, "Women's Ways Of Knowing." Mary was my professor at Goddard and I have found connecting learning with life experience has been an effective way to get students to understand the subject.Even Frank McCort (Angela's Ashes) describes this technique he used succesfully in his teaching.
Over the many years I have worked as adjunct faculty at Maria College in Albany, NY and presently at St Johns Community College I have tutored students in writing papers,how to organize their study time,and to prepare for tests. I have taught medical terminolgy, various healthcare courses and psychology as well as theater scene study courses and acting skills.

The child is in the Center of learning, he must makes learning HIS or HER problem , the teacher is a link between the child and the knowledge, but also brings all his background, his skills, his affectivity, noone can learn without being a little bit attached to the teacher.

My teaching style incorporates all of the senses, listening, watching and doing. Everyone learns differently, the idea is to tap into what works best for them. The way to do this is to better learn who they are as individuals. I have in the past prepared written learning materials and conducted stand up training sessions. I believe that my greatest strengths in learning and development are patience and a willingness to work with people.
My love in life is helping people and helping them to achieve their personal goals. For the past 18 years I have been in the IT industry, and I am looking for a career change. I have held positions as a programmer, business analyst, and training analyst.

I believe that every child can learn. It is up to the teacer to determine his/hers learning style and adapt to it. I am a strong proponent of active learning, where the student is involved in the material using more than one of the senses enabling better recognition, recall and understanding. I also believe that every student needs and deserves one-on-one time with the teacher to address any concerns on the lesson and to answer any questions.I am very patient and will go over material until it is comprehended, using a variety of examples.
I have had some minor experiences as a teacher’s aide. Some of these included working one-on-one with children needing assistance in 7th grade language arts classes. I worked under the tutelage of two 7th grade language arts teachers. I prepared lessons, taught classes, and assessed student progress, supervised by the cooperating teachers. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

It is a firm belief of mine that every child can learn and succeed, they just need the motivation and positive environment to do so. With that said, I strive to create a learning-rich environment where students are encouraged to ask questions and find answers. I also like to encourage my students to try their hardest and to not be discouraged by challenging material. In addition, I realize that many students do not receive encouragement or learning opportunities at home, so I try to compensate for that by filling the day with multiple academic opportunities and challenges and positive relationships and encouragement. I have a medium control approach where I allow the children's inner motivation to steer the way instead of my external direction. It is my hope that I positively impact each and every child that I come into contact with.
I am currently an elementary education major at ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After earning a Bachelor’s degree in a Social Science from the University of Florida, I feel that I have gained a well rounded education in all areas including English, mathematics, biology and natural sciences.I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Public Health because I love to learn. I have been working with children ages 3-14 since I was 15 years old. I spent my summers working as a summer camp counselor. In college I worked for an organization called America Reads and tutored approximately 10 elementary students in reading. Together we read books at their specific reading levels and played games to that allowed them to build better reading and writing skills.
After working with children for several years, I believe that every child can learn and do great as long as they are shown patience, compassion, and are rewarded for their good work and improvement. I think th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is one of the joys of my life. Watching a student's eyes light up, their expression brighten when they grasp a concept, understand what they read for the first time and share what they have learned is priceless. My students are the future. They are potential. I believe repetition is the key to learning. Simple presentation of a subject and positive reinforcement of that concept pave the way for clear understanding.
I have an earned bachelor's degree in elementary education. I was also privileged to be one of the creators and researchers of Hammond Baptist Grade School Curriculum. I graduated from Hyles-Anderson College in 1984. I have experience teaching a variety of grade levels. I have tutored elementary students grades first through fifth in all subjects.
