I have completed coursework in all types of life sciences classes. I completed coursework in several biology and chemistry classes. This coursework included labs and field work. The biology labs I have experience in include: Zoology, Ecology, Freshwater Biology, Insect, and Fish Biology. These labs were highly detailed and included all levels of dissections, identification of species using taxonomic keys, and microscope work. The field work included species colllection, mapping, and sample collection. Lab reports and field notes were required as part of the labs. The seminars for these courses involved all aspects of biology and life sciences. The exams for these courses were involved and would require 2-5 page essays on biological systems. I have experience in writing term(research) papers in all subjects relating to biology. I successfully maintained an A/B average in my biology cour

I have taught public school in the Montgomery County School System for 26 years. I retired May 2010. I have taught grades 1-6 in All subject areas. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Education in 1983 from Auburn University. I received my Master's Degree in Education from Troy State University at Montgomery in 1990. I have worked extensively with children in many areas due to the No Child left Behind Act. I have been to a Reading Academy, workshops, on the job training, and have been given title of model teacher. This is where new teachers come to observe my teaching of new programs that were put in place. I believe all children have potential to learn. I always try to find the best approach for teaching each child. I believe in positive reinforcement and giving a child a feeling of accomplishment after they have experienced so many feelings of failure. Teaching a child one on

I start off with the student displaying what they know and/or don't know. I give an example and and encourage feedback in order to guage the student's understanding. Finally, I have the student to show their understanding. Sometimes, it may take different methods because people learn differently. I have had over 15 years of tutoring and/or teaching experience. I have worked with different age groups, my preferred and primary being adults. I am currently working on my master’s thesis in mathematics, by which I expect to graduate fairly soon. I am patient, creative, and thorough in my interaction with students. I am also flexible to manage different learning styles while effectively achieving the learning goals of the student.

Working towards my B.S. in environmental studies I had the opportunity to work as a high school tutor in mathematics and science. I worked with children in a traditional manner, tutoring them after school by working through homework problems and past test/quiz questions. After graduation I began educating children at a nature center in a less traditional way. Here I worked with larger groups, taking them to explore nature, creating activities that were fun but also educational. Having worked with children for many years in versatile environments, I have learned that every child has a unique way of learning. One may need visual representation, while another comprehends better via audio learning. Some children retain more information through hands-on activities while it is easier for another to read the material. Whatever the case may be, I revise my methods to better suit the needs of

Experience and education in child psychology and child development has furthered by breadth of knowledge in the special education field. I have had positive communication and working relationships with both parents and co-workers. Sixteen years teaching has seasoned my teaching skills and has given me the opportunity to employ different collaborative methods with fellow teachers and administration. I have been successful implementing a wide range of educational techniques and media in order to address the different learning styles of students. I have had the opportunity to teach students with disabilities coping skills, self advocacy and adaptive methods of learning and retaining information. In step with my 8 years teaching in a Montessori School and being a special needs teacher, I am in tune and aware of many different learning styles. In my classroom I was very successful in a

I believe that every child has the ability to learn, but each child has a different way in which they have able to learn. As a teacher it is my responsibility to find out and realize the best way for each child to be taught. As an elementary school teaching I have an expertise in all subjects taught between Kindergarten and sixth grade. I have experience teaching Kindergarten, First, Second and Fourth grade. For the past two years I have gone through extensive in-service work with my school district on reading instruction. I have experience teaching ESE and ESOL students, along with regular education students.

I am a native of Puerto Rico. I learned English as a second language at the age of 11 years old. I recall the difficulty I had in learning the English language while at the same time trying to make it through the 5th grade. The task was frustrating and often overwhelming. The few teachers who made the effort to tutor me individualy were the ones who made the difference in my academic life. I would like to put my experience to use as a tutor who once walked a mile in the shoes of a young person who is striving to excell but is having difficulties due to a language barrier. As a former U.S.Army academics instructor, I have taught several hundred students from many countries in South and Central America as well as Mexico. The academic program for these students was conducted exclusively in the Spanish language. I have received extensive education in technical terminology, lesson plan prepar

I believe that all children can learn. Perseverance, repetition and effort are the keys to academic success. My patient and consistent style of tutoring allows children to learn from their mistakes, without becoming discouraged. Children learn in different ways and having an open minded approach when tutoring can open the doors to understanding and accomplishment. I am a graduate level professional, who has gained a great amount of experience working with children with disabilities. I have a Educational Specialist degree in School Psychology and have worked in numerous schools to help children achieve academically. I worked as an instructional aide for three years in both special education and general education classrooms. I have tutored children with learning disabilities and autism in the areas of reading, writing and mathematics.

I truly believe all children can learn. I am very student-centered as I know that each child learns in different ways. I have a minor in Psychology which I use to help me understand the psyche of the child. Behavior is a very important aspect in learning and I employ Positive Behavioral Supports and an individual approach to every child. I am a strong believer in using real-life problems, manipulatives, and engaging activities that use all the senses. As a graduate from a rigorous teacher training program at USF, I learned many skills and techniques to to teach students of all ability levels and ages. I had many opportunities throughout my college career to practice and experience teaching students from large groups to one-on-one settings. I was a recipient of the Michelin Scholarship Grant which allowed me to go to local Title 1 Middle Schools and tutor at-risk students. I was also re

During my internship, teaching was a joy for me. I know this is my destiny and is the field that I'm supposed to be in for the rest of my life. My teaching style is firm and I try my best to make sure I do everything possible for the students in my possession. All children can learn and will learn with the proper attention and learning skills.I believe that each student is unique and not eveything works for everybody and some people need more attention and some people need less, but it is up to the instructor to find out which way is better. I am a graduate from Auburn University in Montgomery. I have a degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education. I am now attending Ashford University to obtain my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education, which consists of grades K-5. I have not currently started teaching, but I hope my chance is coming soon and I will be teaching th

I am a lover of learning. My love for learning has certainly attributed to my working my way through a Masters of Arts in Teaching. My enthusiasm for helping others to learn has been most heightened; however, through my experience working with students. I have worked in multiple roles at the elementary school level through collegiate level. Every position I have worked in I have loved because of the students. Each person has their own learning needs and own challenges. I love being a part of working through those challenges and finding understanding and success. I find that teaching is as much about getting to know each person, finding there strengths and weaknesses and using those to benefit them in their process of understanding. I like to come up with creative approaches that will suit each individual's strengths for learning. I know that one on one attention, support and encouragemen
