Drama Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Largo, FL

After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry. Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach.

My greatest strength is compassion. I believe that anyone can achieve. I enjoy helping others discover their innate joy of learning. I thrive on seeing the "light" in a learner's eyes. It drives me with a determination to find the best way to help each individual become a lifelong learner.

As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In addition, I taught Drama, Speech, Creative Writing, Script Writing and Math at local Cooperative Groups in the state of Florida. The growth that each student achieves is my best reward. I love learning and love to pass that on. In tutoring, I first work at instilling confidence and apply small victories to achieve that goal. I find the learning style of the student and modify the information in ways that can make them more successful. I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of yo

After graduating cum laude from Yale University with a PhD in Eating, I interned for two years at Dunkin Donuts, fine tuning my skills in eating pastries. I've also spent two summers eating in various food malls, specializing in China One, Chick Fil-A, and Baskin Robins. I have tutored students Overeating, Pizza, and Alka Seltzer. I believe all children can enjoy eating broccoli. I find this works best if the broccoli is smothered with cheese and accompanied on the plate with something fried. I have found that overeating is a very effective way to teach the student dangerous gastric consequences. I demonstrate this by ordering pizza, allowing them to eat as much as they want, and then immediately afterwards giving them free reign to various quarts of ice cream. I know I can make a difference in every students' stomach.

My experience in education began at home with my mother who was a master teacher for 37 years in, mostly, Pinellas County as an English teacher. She exemplified what it means to be a civil servant and a mentor to numerous children year after year. From my home childhood into my adult life I have carried these sentiments closely and was able to extend this practice while working at one of Florida's best non-profits as an education director. My duties included the organization of literacy outreach initiatives assisting teachers in the Pinellas County School System in organizing and teaching poetry workshops for elementary and middle school. Children are the new mark for what is to become and with that belief I feel every single child should be taken into account not just those who seemingly excel. My patience allows for me to access the appropriate pace and learning style for each individu

I taught for 38 years before retiring. I have taught students from age 3 to age 106. Most of my teaching was with students that had learning problems, such as minorities,the underprivleged, the undereducated and the handicapped. I have a wide variety of skills and interests that makes tutoring fun and interesting for the student. My enthusiasm for life and my upbeat style has always been effective with children and adults of every age. I have taught Elementary School, High School, Adult Education, Special Education and English as a Second Language. Students learn best by being lead to discovery. Much of education is developing the ability to not get lost as one learns. I have found that given the time and the data at a proper gradient anyone can learn anything. Finding out what the student already knows and building, with clarity, upon that gives the confidence to learn and the desire to

I enjoy seeing anyone's eyes light up when they learn something new. Everyone has the capacity to learn, and I reflect that by tailoring my teaching style to each individual. In a classroom setting, I am patient and frequently ask questions and wait for students to ask their questions. While the students are working on their exercises, I will answer any questions. I try to get the student to work through the problem him- or herself rather than giving the answer straight-out. Having a love of knowledge and learning, I have always been interested in teaching. I tutored other students both officially and unofficially from grade school through college level. Just last year I spent most of the year instructing students in various computer-related subjects. I have always been proficient in Math and Sciences, as well as good knowledge of history, social studies, and all other general subjects.
