My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : Experienced with writing rubrics,administration and scoring papers.

I was a teaching assistant throughout high school. I graduated Magna Cum Laude and was inducted into Kappa Delta Pi. I was selected to teach intensive intervention and pursued my Master’s degree with a concentration in remedial reading. During the past four years I have taught 2nd-adult English Language Learners and tutored K-adult students in all disciplines.
Helping learners find solutions to their problems is my passion. 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.

My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : Taught state test writing preparation for many years in Massachusetts public alternative schools. Tutor extensively to prepare students for state and college exams.

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug.
After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I t ... read more

Florida Writes is one of my top subjects!

I began working with children at the age of 10 in the capacity of babysitter/activities director. As a teen I began working in daycare centers and have worked in the capacity of teacher/assistant teacher/ director/owner. I have taught public school in Florida and the Bronx, NY over the past 5 years. I have worked as a drop-out prevention teacher and have had the privileged to work with a large number of disadvantaged and at-risk students.
I have strong classroom management skills and a passion for helping kids gain a better understanding for anything under the sun! I have high expectations of what my students can do, and help support them in achieving those expectations. My philosophy is that "can't" is the worst 4 letter word in the dictionary, as a result, I work to motivate my students to become life long learners and to enjoy learning new things.

Patient, Engaging, Effective Tutor

I have tutored students in many subjects, including language arts, math, science, and reading. I have worked with students under NCLB and with FCAT (Florida's Comprehensive Assessment Test program). Some of my past students had learning disabilities, such as Dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, or diagnosed as "Slow Learner." Several of these students were being medicated and were repeating at least one grade. I was able to help them with their educational needs. I have an extensive academic background, possessing AA, BA, and MA degrees. I have a reputation for high personal integrity and positive results. All of my students have made significant improvements as I worked with them. In addition to tutoring, I have proctored grade school students in various subjects and adult learners in the GED as well as employment exams.

My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : I have some experience with teaching writing skills at the middle school level and as part of the GED.

I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings. I taught junior high math one year. I have also written two books. One is a history jokebook. The other is a memoir of humorous classroom incidents. I believe that these experiences qualify me to tutor social studies, reading, and math.
My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment.

Specializing in language skills, logic, and reasoning.

Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. I offer great ideas and have established expectations that administer consistency and fairness as a leader overseeing the needs of others. Communication is not only speaking but active listening. As an active listener, I offer feedback and answer questions that assist in the learning process. My proactive role in lesson planning is geared toward guided learning. Engaging creatively and intellectually with the students in multiple languages at the secondary and adult levels allows me the unique opportunity to create, maintain, manage, and consistently improve educational relationships with diverse populations.
As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

A Little Bit About Me...

My classroom teaching experience includes teaching math (2nd grade through Algebra II) and science (2nd grade through community college); assigning and evaluating core academic lessons from Kindergarten through High School in both public and private homeschool programs. In addition, I have tutored numerous public school children in math and science. I feel I am uniquely qualified for tutoring due to my extensive experience serving independent study (i.e., homeschooled) students. For six years, I have facilitated the education of hundreds of students through the assignment and evaluation of coursework in all subject areas and all grade levels. I have expertise in curriculum options and creating assignments that match the students individualized educational goals, as well as meeting district guidelines
I am firmly committed to education and strive to make learning an enjoyable ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is entirely dependent upon my learner. Reflective practice guides my analysis of an individual's abilities, interests and potential which in turn guides my own instructional practice. While some learner's do require discipline and a strict agenda, I frequently relinquish powers to the learner in an effort to fully engage them in their own learning (while maintaining teacher authority of course). Through instructional facilitation, constructive practice and reflective play I look to encourage a well-rounded experience to advocate the love of learning to my student.
My experience in education is at once formal & casual, specific & broad. From working in the school setting with reading intensive students to conducting experiments and demonstrations on the floor of the MOSI science museum, I have gained a world of knowledge on teaching methodology and student assessme ... read more

More About This Tutor...

It wasn't until my senior year at Florida State University, that I realized making a difference in children and students lives through education, was what I wanted to do. Immediately out of college, I decided to test the waters, before jumping right in. So I got a job as a substitute teacher and began my journey with education. I learned quickly what to expect at different grade levels. I also learned that working with students can be a challenge, but it was one I was ready for. It also did not take me long to land a long term position at a middle school. During the last 7 years, I have learned and experienced a lot, but my passion to help has never changed.
I love working with all children and know they can learn, just each in their own way. I am available to help your child find their best way to learn, so they can have academic success. I am a very easy going and patient person. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am known for my enthusiasm and motivation. I am good at listening to my students and taking their interests and turn learning into a fun event! I understand where they are at and know where they need to get to (state standards). I encourage them by focusing on their strengths and making an "I CAN" folder...here are the items we will be focusing on so they can learn and progress. I am great at making connections and make learning real, fun and relevant to them. There has to be buy in! :-)
I have taught school for fourteen plus years. I have taught everything from TMH/PMH, reading recovery, kindergarten, third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade, sixth grade...with a wide range of abilities. One of my strengths has been to really "know" where my students are at so I can differeniate and teach them accordingly. I have tutored privately for the last four years with great success ... read more
