I got a Bachelors in Early Childhooh education and had the priviledge of ebing in the classroom the last three years of college. I feel the experienced gained as a student in the field, gave me the security to succees when I graduated. I taught kindergarten and first grade and I am currently working at an administrative position at an Educational NGO. I feel I have gained important skills and I would like to go back with working directly with kids. It is truly a vocation. I am an advocate of positive reinforcement. I believe all children can achieve their potential in different ways. Every student has a unique personality and strengths that can be used to develop their understanding and knowledge. The teacher has the power to set the environment and guide the student but it is in the opportunities and experiences that the teacher allows the student to explore, that each student strats t

I strive to make learning fun in any way that I can. I always include facts that keep a student interested in the subject I am teaching. I want to make an impression on my students and make them realize that every subject is important and interesting in its own way. My goal is to leave each student with the same passion for learning that I have. I was a History, Chemistry and Literature tutor while attending Austin Community College. My experience as a tutor for the last five years had allowed me to help perfect my teaching style. My college education lasted ten years and during that time I studied a wide variety of subjects, such as Chemistry, Biology, Literature, Writing, Government, Anthropology and History. I will also be receiving my teaching certificate in the next 2 years.

My teaching style is to engage the student in learning. I begin by a review of the material to see how much the student knows. Then I get the student involved in learning by practicing. From my experience, repitition will not only help the student to remember the information but help them to become a more dedicated student. I believe in positive reinforcement and encouragement. I believe a student can achieve anything if they put their minds to it because I was one who also needed help to achieve my goals. As a student at the University of Houston I earned a scholarship each semester through the Scholar Enrichment Program. It was based off of a students academic performance each semester and it would require me to tutor other students in classes I performed well in. I tutored students in General Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Physics. I also have a minor in history an

I am a student of history and believe that knowledge acquisition comes from interest and enthusiasm on the part of the learner. This interest comes from having an instructor who them selves is a learner. A partnership in the tasks being presented usually results in the student wanting to understand the information and making connections. To promote critical thinking I present the material in a global manner, allowing the learner to relate the information/skill to the real-world. Creative, innovative, and interesting lessons are my forte. I am experienced in providing a constructivist-based approach to knowledge acquisition. Hands-on lesson promote student involvement and increase the development of student responsibility towards their education. I have found that a cross-curriculum approach to the material being presented fosters true understanding and relevance.
