In my past experience as a Teacher, I have been required to follow a strict curriculum and adhere to a specific learning plan. My style of teaching incorporates the cognitive and the interactive so students can experience their lessons as an adventure rather than a mandatory requirement.

I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of thinking about the world and asking questions. Several themes appear again and again in concepts that on the surface may seem unrelated and it is recognizing these themes that is the key to success in building knowledge and confidence. My teaching philosophy is to point out these common threads binding various topics in science and relate it to the real world as quickly as possible, always with the goal of breaking it down to its simplest explanation. I hold a bachelor of science in Biology (cum laude) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and attended graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

After raising 4 children, I reentered the work force 5 years ago as a French Teacher, first at Palmer Middle School, then for the past 4 at Kell High School. I chose teaching because of my strong desire to impact young lives and prepare them for a productive and fulfilling future. I teach all levels of French, including AP French. Over the past three years, my AP students have all received grades of 3 or above. I am AVID certified, and attended a week-long training for AP teachers 2 summers ago, during which time I was trained in best practices in the French AP classroom. I have also worked the past two summers as a tutor with LEC. I stay in the target language as much as possible in the classroom, as I am an advocate of immersion, believing that the most effective way a student learns a second language should mirror the way in which he acquired the first, through comprehensible in

As a mentor and tutor I have a very hands on style of teaching. I challenge my students with the Upward Bound Program to think outside the norms of their traditional boundaries. I encourage a diverse mind frame and point of view for various subject. Most of all I want my students to see their studies in everyday life and understand how each subject applies on a person level. My teaching style as well is always open and my doors and time is always devoted to those I teach so that their understanding of a subject is not limited to only the work load I present, but questions they present to me as a teacher. As a volunteer for St. Joseph's Home for Boys and Upward Bound, I have gained experience working with elementry middle and high school students on a personal level. I feel that my ability to reach the minds of youth is great because I speak to them not at them. I encourage them as well t

I believe that children learn best by creating their knowledge. I run my classroom under a constructivist theory, where children work to develop deep understanding of the content. I teach my students through hands on lessons that translate to real world experiences that helps to make their learning more concrete. It is important to meet each student at their level and scaffold their learning. While I believe that all students can learn, it is important to individualize education to help each student be successful. I have been teaching in Smyrna, GA for 8 years, and have experienced nearly every elementary grade level. I taught Kindergarten, First, and Fourth Grade each for one year, Second Grade for three years, and Fifth Grade for two years. While working at Belmont Hills I worked with many second language learners from Mexico, Haiti, and Pakistan and saw the need to be ESOL certified

My years of experience have taught me that no two students are alike, especially in the 'tutoring' arena. I find the students strengths and create a positive learning environment that students actually enjoy! My students tell me they can't believe how fast the time goes; and look forward to the next lesson. My teaching style creates a feeling of well-being, confidence and self esteem that the student can 'build on' every week. My students leave me each week with a sense of accomplishment and a big smile. And I too, always look forward to the next lesson! My students succeed. I was introduced to teaching as a guitar teacher and loved the field of education ever since. My first school experience was teaching 7th and 8th grade social studies in Queens, N.Y.in 1979. Finally, I found my niche in high school teaching various subjects such as Physical Science, Biology, Social Studies and tutori

I love working with children because they have such a youthfulness that is full of life and ready to take on new challenges. I have worked in numerous leadership roles and One of the aspects I try to instill within the mindset of children, is that English is not as boring as they may think. I believe that if you capture a child's mind by relating the core subject to something similar they are interested in, then you can teach them anything. I want to show students a new way of learning through hands on methods. I am patient yet firm. I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in English, with a Concentration in Creative Writing. As a student of Kentucky State University, I have explored my passion through words (i.e. Poetry).The Education that I've received from my University, allowed me to not only be successful in my field, but I have written over 100 Poems; which I'm in the process of getting

I believe that teaching is most effective when you give students a chance to show you what they already know. Half of teaching is simply encouraging children to be interested in their own progress and to persevere through the adversity that always follows real learning. I gage the progress of my students by asking them a lot of questions, and I give positive reinforcement whenever possible. I want to be a positive role model for every child I come across, and to participate in the process of discovery with them in a personal way. Most rewarding is the way that my students have taught me more things than I would have ever expected. I love to see my students' progress as they find their own paths, and to celebrate each students' uniqueness. I am graduating from Rice University with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Cell Biology and a B.A. in Asian Studies this year. I have achieved a cumulative G

My teaching style is to lead by example. Being that I am a visual learning I try to work in steps showing them what is expected and them I allow them to slowly work it out themselves based off of what I've done. I've done a lot of teaching to children with Autism and our teaching style varied to fit the way the child was able to learn. I also took Educational Psychology in graduate school and learned the meaning of intentional teaching, which is teaching with the intent of having the student learn what you are teaching. In response to your recently advertised job position, I would like to share with you my experiences working in the related field. I have over five years experience working for a non-profit, child caring institute for DFCS and DJJ children. I have worked directly with the children in managing behaviors and I have worked indirectly in creating individualized treatment plans

I have had a love for teaching as early as elementary school.I was asked by my principal if I would help the first graders tell time. Then when I was in the seventh grade I was asked if I would like to tutor third graders.When I attended O.S.U I became a Reading Coordinator through the Right-To-Read Program.I taught other students how to teach adults and children how to read.I found this very rewarding.I also enjoy teaching sight words and spelling.I have taken many classes the last two years that help me work directly with younger children in meeting their needs and understanding how to help them learn to read. One of my gifts in life is having the patience to teach others because I care.
