I understand that there are a number of ways children can learn. Therefore, I employ different teaching methods to maximize a child's learning potential. I am very patient and understanding, and I enjoy incorporating fun into the learning process. Achieving the highest level of education has been a huge priority for me. I have completed one Bachelor and one Master's degree. I am now working on completing my doctorate in leadership and education. I have been teaching since 1999.

My senior year in high school I was a tutor for a second grade elementary class, assisting the teacher with reading exercises, as well as correcting various assignments. In college I took part in the Junior Achievement program, teaching economics curriculum to third graders during the spring quarter of my senior year. After college I volunteered at the Renton History Museum from March 2007 to February of 2009 and the Tampa Bay History Center from March of 2009 to May 2009. My teaching style is to help students find the answers on their own. By asking a series of questions you can help students to find their own answers and express them in their own way. By doing this you not only teach them a subject, but you teach them the more important skill of knowing how to learn. I believe all students, from pre-school to doctorate level possess the same capacity to learn. The challenge for educato

I have been told by my first year teaching mentor that my style of teaching is "unconventional". Although I majored in English, I had a concentration in creative writing and a minor in visual arts. I think of writing as an art, and so I use creative methods in the classroom to teach students. I believe our youth's attention span is getting shorter and shorter due to television/media and modern day technologies. As a teacher, it is imperative that you hold the child's interest. I believe in incorporating these technologies into the classroom, and relating material in the easiest terms and to things they already know. There is nothing worse than feeling like you are "stupid" when you cannot understand what the teacher is saying or cannot relate to it. The best learning happens when students do not even realize they are learning. That is the foundation for my style of teaching. I love teach

In an evaluation after an observation of one of my history classes, a colleague of mine quoted that "it was evident from the beginning that the students were at ease, and yet extremely focused." My teaching style reflects the attitude that students must be comfortable in their surroundings first in order to be able to focus their energies for the day's work. I believe deeply in learning to both give and receive constructive criticism, from peers and superiors alike. My students would often critique their own work, in addition to others in the class. Although it could be a challenge to work some of the more reticent out of their shells, it proved effective in the long run giving them the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the academic world. Immediately after I graduated with a double-major BA in Political Science and History, I began teaching and tutoring at a boarding sch

I believe that each student will succeed. You have to presume comepetence and have high expectations. Students learn at different paces and achieve goals at different times. Everyone needs to be given an opportunity to excel. I practice a caring, patient approach to teaching. Students need to feel good about themselves and their effort. Gains are made through different techniques. It is my job to evaluate the students need and help them achieve their highest goals. I earned a B.A. in Mass Communications from USF in 2000. I became certified to teach K-12 grades in 2003. I taught 5th grade for one year and then Kindergarten for two additional years. I also spent a few years substitute teaching at the high school level. I enjoyed the experience of working with the older students as well as the younger ones. I have experience with FCAT preparation on the elementary level. I have a young so

I have a degree in Criminal Justice. I have always been a good student. I have never directly taught children, but I have 2 kids who I help everyday with their homework and they are in junior high and are in all advanced classes. Since I feel that I am a great motivator and know how to study for certain things, I show my kids the encouragement they need and now I feel I can offer this to other kids as well. I have great grammer skills and can help with studying as well. Every child is different, but one thing all children need is some patience and motivation that they can do it. I am easy going and have great qualities to be there for children like I am for my own. I love to help children and anyone who needs help.

Motivating students to want to learn is a key facet of my success as a teacher. I have found that educating people to understand ‘why’ things are done is essential to having them truly understand the subject matter being taught. In short I teach them how to learn. My approach always includes the “coach approach” so the student knows you honestly want them to win and get a good grade in a particular subject. An essential component of the “student teacher” experience is developing a verbal performance contract in which responsibilities of the student and the teacher are very clear. This way the student learns to “trust” me and wants to learn more from me.

Teaching is the most rewarding thing I have ever done. I have extensive experience teaching languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French), social sciences and music. I have been gainfully employed as an interpreter, a professor, a tutor, a marketing manager, an editor, an immigration specialist, and now as in-house counsel for a major U.S. bank. This eclectic and fulfilling professional background is the natural product of an insatiable curiosity and exceptional linguistic talent. In addition to a minor in Spanish and a certificate in Latin American Studies, I have bachelor degrees with honors and distinction in History and English from the University of Iowa. Furthermore, I recently graduated in the top 12% of my class with honors and distinction from the University of Iowa law school in 2003. I have also studied languages, social science topics and law in South America and Europ
